I hope Bioware's new Mass Effect only has white heterosexual male English protestants from nice suburban neighborhoods just like every other Mass Effect game. Anything else would be pandering.

Including aliens is clear SJW subtext for foreigners. Mass Effect shouldn't have aliens at all.

Because obviously the short hairstyle was invented by the LGBTQ Illuminati.

Of course!

The short-haired lesbian thing reminds me of The Walking Dead, when one of the prisoners at the Prison thinks Carol's a lesbian because her hairs' short. :lol2:

Why would they bitch about that, of all things? I mean, there are plenty of people who choose female PCs in the Mass effect games, precisely so they could get some lesbo action in the romance sub-plots!

...or so I've heard. From other people.
Indeed.... i have also heard of this from other people.. not that i would know myself...

Yes. The idea that we would be hatching such a plot is ridiculous. Laughable, even. Look, I'm laughing at it: Ha. Ha, ha.
<.<

But seriously, are they not aware that Mass Effect has had lesbians from the beginning?
Yeah but this woman, Cora iirc her name is, is not hot enough, and that with the short hair apparently makes her a fat man hating lesbian sjw or something... at least according to the all knowing internet who are clearly always right and know the truth.

Indeed quite, it is the only correct path you should take to make a good game, anything that deviates from this is ruining it! Its ruined! RUINED I SAY!

I fucking hate chaos with a passion

And i thought my first big battle with that demon fucker as the empire was rough. Outnumbered them 4-1 and took three times as many casualties, though on the plus side i did wound two legendary lords, so they will be out of action for a bit. Now the Highking must retreat with his battered throng, and replenish his ranks in occupied Sylvania.

Thinking about the first shooter thing though, now that i think about it again, halo was not my first shooter, i remember demos of Quake, and some game similar to it, but it was set in like Ancient Egypt or something iirc, and a demo for Doom on the PS1, so i think one of those was actually my first shooter that i played.

Actually there's a question - when did I get Timesplitters 1?

I absolutely - love - Timesplitters. Sucks that they still aren't made, it was one of my all-time favorites.

On a side note, I believe that GoldenEye on the N64 was my first shooter.

I've been playing Empires. It's good, no crashing, but yeah... it's a pretty lazy PS3 port. Granted, that works wonders for me because I can play it on my laptop without needing a mouse. :lol:

Hmmm, I'd say Death was the hardest, as far as I can recall, in Persona 3.
Can't quite remember which boss gave me the most difficulty in Persona 4, although I think the one that I had to try over and over and over was the one against Shadow Mitsuo.

Ok, so how about the twelve shadows, particularly the Priestess, the Fortune and Strength, and the Hanged Man boss?

If I recall correctly (this was over six years ago), Fortune and Strength gave me the most trouble.

The Federation of Kendor wrote:Also for Persona 4, how do your fight against Shadow Yukiko, Shadow Kanji, and Shadow Naoto went?

Pretty well, as far as I can remember. In those days, I had no problem with grinding a lot, so while I had to retry Shadow Kanji and Shadow Naoto a couple of times, I was at a very good level.

I swear, some gamers are a bunch of snowflakes when it comes to Bioware. I remember some entitled guy on GameFAQs whining about how Bioware hated straight men because the two romanceable women in Dragon Age Inquisition weren't attractive to him.

I for one welcome our Bioware overlords. Any developer that lets me play as a cute male elf mage and have a BDSM romance with a pansexual Qunari is welcome to rule the world, as far as I'm concerned.

Pity that they have EA looming above them.
