Hire the original writer of Mass Effect. Drew Karpyshyn

Sounds good. I would rather he was directing the new Mass Effect, but hopefully his team tries to do their own version of ME.

This seems to happen a lot. But where are all the games from these smaller companies started by ex-employees of larger ones? The only one that really seemed to go anywhere was Torchlight.

Spoiler: Phil Spencer right now ...

I will call this The Outer Worlds effect. Honestly with Unreal Engine 5 a nuclear team of developers can achive far more than a bogged down large studio embroidled in identity politics.

Humanoid...
The selfawarness is commendable.

'The man who wrote the ending to Mass Effect 3 now ready to create new shit.'

And directly and knowingly lied about it to people's faces right up to its launch.

It's like being excited for a new Benioff and Weiss TV show. Why would you set yourself up for disappointment like that?

Casey Hudson, the huy who said Anthem would be supported for years, can take his new studio and shove it up his cunt.

Not to mention wasn’t he the one that was the driving force behind ME3 3 colour ending while dismissing the concerns of his writers telling him the whole thing is dumb AF?

'The man who wrote the ending to Mass Effect 3 now ready to create new shit.'

Yes, because we should all forget about all the work and creativity that this man has put into some of the greatest video games of all time because of this one mistake.

All those countless hours spent playing some of the greatest role playing games of all time, all the laughs, all the tears, all the excitement and unforgettable moments. None of that is supposed to matter because he and some other guy decided to write an ending while under a pressure of a deadline to finish this humongous game, and it didn't turn out to be quite as good as he had hoped.

 

[MrTroubleMaker]

it will have 3 color coded endings

You're only as good as your last gig
