All the stuff coming out about this makes me hype and bums me out at the same time.
I can finally talk about Mass Effect Universe.
Since Bioware closed I can now reveal that I was part of the Mass Effect Council, saw what BioWare was building, and provided feedback during development.
• Set 600+ years after the Reaper War
• You play as a customizable N7 agent
• Instead of being a walking gun rack, you're a cross between John Wick and James Bond
• Shepard's legacy preserved, regardless of your ending
• A galaxy divided into three major factions
• Humanity, Krogan, Batarians, and more allied together
• Council races forming their own alliance
• The Geth emerging as a third superpower
• A galactic Cold War instead of another Reaper style invasion with a shadowy adversary
• Geth-built megastructures
• Connections between the Milky Way and Andromeda
• Experimental technology implanted in you as a unique point of difference
• Hacking and manipulating the environment
• See through walls, identify systems, remotely trigger hazards and more
• Handcrafted missions like ME1-3
• But with Hitman-style freedom in how you complete them
• Brutal close-range executions
• Squadmates who can clash with each other
• Romance wasn't being sanitised
• Liara returns - now an incredibly powerful Asari Matriarch
From what I saw, BioWare was making Mass Effect for us, the fans, not for people who don't exist.
It looked incredible.
And now we may never get to play it.

We just mentioned BioWare Magic on this weeks episode. Oof.
EA is shutting down BioWare, the studio behind ‘Dragon Age’ and ‘Mass Effect’.
The next ‘Mass Effect’ game has been cancelled as a result.

Max was really my favorite part! 😅
No real details yet, but my thoughts are with the CF and emergency personnel.
Wainwright is one of Canadas biggest bases isn’t it?

Resident Evil was definitely not a comedy.
The MCs reactions are so human that they are funny in context and then there’s a couple moments played for laughs - but the movie is by no means going for laughs over scares.
