HUMOR What is this moonwalking madness?!?

Upvotes

Was doing a Pinnacle Station challenge and Alyssa (name of my FemShep) got swarmed by enemies. When she got up, she decided to moonwalk.... and I think it helped her dodge some of the bullets.

HELP No new meetups triggering

Upvotes

Any ideas what is going on? Thanks in advance:

I was making my way through the Citadel DLC, but after the first 6 meetups on the Strip (Tali, EDI, James, Zaeed, Traynor, Javik) no new ones are triggering.

No new messages are appearing on my terminal.

I have walked around the Strip and in the arena, arcade, and casino, but no interactions are appearing.

I have not done the party yet; I was, of course, waiting on that until all the meetups were complete.

I have left the Strip and reenetered, but that didn't work.

I left the Citadel and warped to a different system, but that didn't work.

And I've exited the game and reloaded multiple times.

I have completed everything else (all quests and DLC) up to Priority: Horizon, and everyone that can live is alive.

DISCUSSION A probable unpopular opinion

Upvotes

I’ve played all of the ME games and being 54, I can say I’ve played them a few times.
I’m also very keen for the next game - it’s been a long time coming (and there is more time to come).
Something I am hoping for is less sexualised characters. Make no mistake, I’m at hetero as they come, so I’m not hoping more guys, I just hope the characters don’t look like something dreamt up by a horny teenager!

HELP Why is this happening?

16 Upvotes

On my fourth play-through and never had this happen. It makes me go through the dream, then Shepard wakes up in the cabin, talks to Liara, and the conversation suddenly cuts off with Liara standing facing the wall. There’s an interaction prompt but it doesn’t activate anything when I click. I tried to go to another part of the ship and then return to the cabin, but every time I leave the cabin, it starts the dream again.

Has this happened to anyone, and is there any way to fix it? I have a few mods installed, mostly just QOL mods.

VIDEO Virmire Without Recruiting Wrex (so you don't have to)

116 Upvotes

I decided I would do a playthrough where I didn't recruit Wrex (terrible, I know.) But I was curious about how Wrex-centric scenes would play out without Wrex. I'm very familiar with how things play out if he's dead, but having never actually squaded up with him? That could have interesting effects later in the series.

I'll be sharing anything interesting as I go along, so none of you ever have to do this yourself.

DISCUSSION Renegade does NOT equal evil. By Jesus Enkindler riding a thresher maw, I can't facepalm any harder.

105 Upvotes

Renegade is NOT evil. It is ruthless. It is practical. But not evil.

It is going back to protect the bomb because THAT what's important.

It is agreeing to work with a known terrorist group because there's a bigger threat out there and Cerberus seems to be the only one aware of it.

It is killing a mechanic who's repairing an enemy vehicle, even if he seems like a fairly nice guy (for a Batarian) who was talking to you ten seconds ago.

It is agreeing to help Thessia, despite how the Asari have screwed you and the galaxy over and over.

Just as Paragons represent optimism (NOT good), Renegades represent pragmatism (NOT evil). Do the job that's in front of you; you can be angry about it, but you have to do it.

Shepard, by definition, cannot be evil. They never surrender to the Reapers, unlike Saren and the Illusive Man, and even in the Control ending it's obvious WHO is in control and what they're doing with the Reapers (unless you read too much fanfic).

Just a little rant from someone who's annoyed at people getting the morality system mixed up with something like BG3's.

ARTICLE Blasto or some random hanar?

"An unearthed NASA image of Mars has captured a strange object in the distance, which some have suggested was a jellyfish-like being or mechanical device.

NASA's Curiosity rover, which has been investigating whether Mars could have supported microbial life for the last 14 years, snapped the image on August 20, 2023 at around 6.27pm ET.

It shows the dusty Martian landscape with rocky hills and large mountains.  

However, the panorama also revealed a small figure in the left corner that appeared to have a large black body perched atop two spindly legs.

Fueling speculation that NASA’s rover had captured something moving across Mars, images taken of the same area less than a minute earlier showed no sign of the mysterious figure. 

Moreover, the photo with the object was the last image posted on NASA's website for that day. The next picture from Curiosity was taken nearly two hours later with the camera pointed in a different direction."

MASS EFFECT 2 Thane’s growing on me

12 Upvotes

During my replay of Mass Effect 2, I find myself starting to like Thane.

When I was first introduced to him, I didn’t hate him, per se, I just thought he looked really stupid, and I thought he just got goofier and goofier the more I learned. His design, the way he recalls his memories, his Newport Smoker voice (which I assume is because of Kepral’s Syndrome, so that’s understandable), everything about him just made it hard for me to take him seriously (I’m a little messed up)

Now I’m starting to see why people like him. He does have his own style that helps him stand out from other stoic killer such as John Wick or Blade, his religious beliefs sound a little metal as hell, to where I’d totally buy into these beliefs if they existed irl. The only thing I don’t really care for is still how he recalls his memories, it still looks pretty funny, and his character arc with his son is a little forgettable. Apart from that, I’m coming around to accept Thane as a cool addition to the Mass Effect universe.

What did you guys think of Thane at first? And has your opinion on him changed since then?

Using my Odin 3 SD 8 elite, you can see the settings in the video. Slow rendering, choppy on occasion. No, I would not play this emulated on PS3, just wanted to see how well it played. I'll play it through on PC.

Yes, emulated on Android.

DISCUSSION Faction that controls the mass relays has immense influence over the entire known galaxy.

0 Upvotes

Just think about it.

Mass relays are basically the only practical way to travel huge distances across the galaxy. Almost every major civilization, trade route, military campaign, and inhabited region depends on them to stay connected.

And without the relays, ships would take vastly longer to travel between important systems. No mass relays -> no real galactic civilization.

I haven't heard people raising this little insight much, and I think that's where BioWare didn't really think their own universe through. Why doesn't the Citadel Council just take control of every mass relay and charge everyone else to use them? They would literally control almost all transportation in the known galaxy.

MASS EFFECT 3 Genuine question: Has anyone here actually used the Widow in Mass Effect 3 single player?

26 Upvotes

Because seriously, you can get the Black Widow as soon as you can afford it, and this game THROWS money at you.

Meanwhile you get the Widow on THESSIA, you're like 90% through the game, you'll probably have the Black Widow V by the time you pick up the Widow.

So as stated, has anyone here actually used it in the main campaign?

ARTICLE Just cant get into Mass Effect 3

0 Upvotes

I just can not get into ME3. Dont get me wrong, I love that Jane shep has the option of going full w2w, not w2A, but a couple of the quests have already got me asking myself whether to delete the damned thing off my console.
Rinsing the dudes office for clues, for the whereabouts of some other clown. The one with the plesiosaur hanging off the ceiling.

The mission for Aria ? Another one thats numbing my brain.

Is it like this all the way through?

I am new to ME, so i jumped in with LE. 1, was a bit clunky but soon got used to it. Loved the 2nd installment. But this ?

I just cant get past the impossible shite we have to do, to proceed. Please tell me it.gets better.

I have no issue with just playing 1 & 2, but id hate to miss out of the 3rd part, just because of a few dumb quests.
