With little communication from BioWare about Mass Effect 5 I wanted to have a vent session about what we know, what might be happening and what I expect in the future for our favorite space opera. #MassEffect 🟥: youtu.be/UTexKcwzZLM

It's insane to me that 5 years ago I finally dove into Mass Effect and it's changed so much for me. Since then I've made 200+ videos about the next game and 15 podcasts (@MassEffectHYPE). Thanks to everyone who has been a part of this fun little journey.💜 #MassEffect

Good morning and happy Tuesday.☕

@Byrdman A game should earn its own support. Telling people to play a mid game to maybe (but probably not) get a third game from another franchise is dumb.

If you care about the potential of Destiny 3 then you’ll give aspects of Marathon a chance. They’re expanding the game to be friendly to any player so you should try it if you haven’t.

@oliver_drk He's a moron.

Xbox YouTuber KidSmoove says the potential studio closure of Double Fine, Undead Labs or even a resell of Activision would be worthy sacrifices if this means Xbox goes back to exclusives. But he's not willing to give up out on Game Pass day-and-date.

@kennyflorian It seems pretty universally accepted that he just shot a dead body.

Please correct to…”The soldier that claims he killed Osama”.

@PrezLives2022 If it splits the Republican vote and gives a Democrat a chance to win then sure. He should go for it.

Did you know that Massie could still technically run as an independent to take McConnells seat in Kentucky. His entry would be challenged most likely, but the rules say he can enter this race. I think he should. He is not barred from the sore loser law in this race.

I'm going to do this except with my balding head.

@kanigtmare @JayzTwoCents "the work"

@baundiesel @JayzTwoCents He's still doing the work himself. I think you're reading too far into it

Seems as though I am being severely misquoted here and Right to Reply is a real this, so here we go... I said in my AI video that AI is a useful tool for many, but not a replacement for human or human creativity. I am being misquoted and misattributed into saying that I am anti-AI entirely, and thats NOT true or what I said at all. I even discussed my absolute trash abilities in Photoshop specifically with Thumbnails so I have been trying out some things to help spice them up. Every day I get emails from people wanting me to hire them to make Thumbnails and the truth is, no I wouldnt spend money on that. But what is even funnier is that people are claming that my thumbnails are completely AI generated which is also untrue, for instance, here are the source images used for the cut-out versions of me below.... So where as I am not willing to hire a dedicated Thumbnail artist (believe it or not, neither Phil, Nic or Myself are any good at Thumbnail creation) I did however hire a Researcher this month to assist with our new Weekly News videos, as well as other interesting topics that deserve deeper investigation... I suppose I COULD have used AI for that, but thats an example of where I feel AI is dangerous, just using a search query, copying the results and calling it a day is exactly what a LOT of people are doing, and thats not what I believe it. Also attributing to me having some assistance with creating Thumbnails is not the same as "Vibe Coding" which we KNOW is a real thing causing REAL problems... I think all you have to do is look at the Profile of this guy to understand where his true biases are and you know what, good on him... He wears his bias like a badge of honor and hes entitles to it. Doesn't make him right, but hey, at least he doesnt hide it. If you think thumbnail creation is a big problem, Id love to hear why.... the video is shot and edited by real people I have hired... unfortunately, we arent LTT with huge budgets to hire people for every task at hand, and Thumbnails are extremely low on the "to hire" list.

@varricsbianca @MarathonDevTeam

@MarathonDevTeam Just kick me while I’m down, why not?

Marathon's first season wraps up on June 2. As we begin to prepare for Season 2, we're going to reveal more about NIGHTFALL this week, including details about Night Marsh, the new Runner shell Sentinel, the Cradle, and progression improvements.

@Pirat_Nation "Xbox was likely included because its system is closer to PC than PlayStation's." It concerns me how dumb most of these click bait accounts are.

IO Interactive confirmed that 007 First Light will not have preload on Steam or Xbox. Only PlayStation players will be able to download the game before launch. This is probably to avoid leaks and piracy before release. PC preloads can sometimes be datamined or cracked early if files are exposed, so removing preload on Steam lowers that risk. Xbox was likely included because its system is closer to PC than PlayStation's. The situation is ironic because early leaks still came from PS5 copies that got out before launch. They also added Denuvo DRM to Steam some days ago, so they are clearly worried about piracy. Some people with slow internet will have to wait to play it due to this. IO Interactive has not officially said the decision was due to piracy concerns.

@WhiteHouse This is the most moronic administration in the history of our country.

“The Enriched Uranium (Nuclear Dust!) will either be immediately turned over to the United States to be brought home and destroyed or, preferably, in conjunction and coordination with the Islamic Republic of Iran, destroyed in place or…” - President Donald J. Trump

@waitbutwhy It takes ten seconds to find out the drastic difference between them.

Isn’t Coke Zero just Diet Coke branded for men?

@RGamerB_ @JBlaze226 Posts like this are a reminder that the console warrior losers on this website aren't all engagement baiting. Most of them are just morons.

@JBlaze226 33% of Forza Horizon 6 players haven't even beaten the tutorial bud. 😭 6 million downloads, 2 million didn't even play it more than 5 minutes. 💀

THE BEST Racing game on the market keeps getting better. 🤯

@DeekeTweak Probably some bullshit but I'm sure TT will find a way to glaze them regardless.

What the heck is Sony working on? patentscope.wipo.int/search/en/deta…

@mrpyo1 If Naughty Dog became a GAAS studio Factions would've been the last game they ever made. You fanboy accounts need to learn more about how the industry works in between posting all of your corny bullshit.

Jason Schreier has reported that Sony is not happy with the lack of new releases from Naughty Dog this generation... This makes no sense to me, they were not far from completing factions 2 then cancelled it 💀 If there was better leadership this gen, intergalactic would be out

@JezCorden This tweet encapsulated it: x.com/i/status/20565…

The reactions from PC gamers to PlayStation ditching Steam seems to have been a giant collective shrug.

@ymnis_v1 lol It's so funny seeing you on your back foot trying to pretend like this generation hasn't been a disaster for your favorite box outside of console sales. That loser ass persona isn't so cute when you're mad.

@PaulTassi no, not really lmao

Do I need to say it

@PaulTassi Sony is still living in the 2000s and if they hadn't sold a lot of consoles this gen they'd be getting a lot of shit.

Vaguepost cure: Sony frequently lets its single player studios get half decades and hundreds of millions to make a one-off game, and they won’t make a Destiny 3 that would at the very least launch as a successful live service

@DomTheBomb But they've sold a lot of consoles and that's all that matters. Right?
