It's been a shit day for Skippy, so now it's time for some Mass Effect!

Time for a new #introduction post.

Hiya. I'm Dreadful Sanity aka Mel, a level 47 gamer from Germany. #Videogames keep me basically from going completely crazy and therefore alive. I'm #disabled, suffering from debilitating #migraines most days of the week. I also have #ADHD which means my brain is usually going all over the place. And last but not least, there is some #BPD mixed into the mess that I am. Beware of that.

The games that I usually alternate through are...
#Warcraft
#DragonAge
#MassEffect
#Cyberpunk2077
#TheSims4
#BaldursGate3

Though every now and then I will play something new. Or different.

I think that's all.

Have you heard of this game called Mass Effect? Skippy's trying it out for funsies.

During the course of transcribing Legion's dialogue from #MassEffect2, I may actually have solved a mystery I've been puzzling over for a long time: the flashing of Legion's small headlights.
Because between the various versions of ME, the essential question is literally: to flash or not to flash?

Während ich Legions Dialoge aus #MassEffect 2 transkribiert habe, habe ich möglicherweise ein Mysterium gelöst, über das ich schon lange Zeit gerätselt habe: das Blinken von Legions kleinen Kopflichtern.
Denn bei den verschiedenen Versionen von ME lautet die essenzielle Frage buchstäblich: blinken oder nicht blinken?

Going deep...

going to write a proper introduction post!

hello, my name is neo. i'm a transmasc in my 20's. generally speaking i like machines that move people, amusement rides, shooter games, and various sci fi and sci fi-adjacent media. i'm in between jobs right now, but my background spans aerospace engineering, acting, teaching, and operating amusement rides.

i occasionally draw and shoot 35mm film! (even less often, i write mediocre fanfiction.)

i'm on the fence about talking about my mental issues on new social media pages but you might find me mentioning them down the line.

i'll put my interests in the tags. (hopefully that's considered helpful here, like mastodon, and not spammy like it is on some sites.) happy to be here!

My relationship with long videogames

@the_gamer_tavern

In the past I couldn't, for the life of me, commit myself to playing long games (i.e. 30+ hours) because I fell out of interest and dropped the game.

Lately I started playing two "long" (always keep in mind that this adjective is used by my perspective) games: Red Dead Redemption 2 and Mass Effect 1 (the legendary edition) and weirdly enough, seems like they're sticking with me because I'm alternating one or another throughout the gaming sessions.

I don't know if this pattern will be able to help me with other games as well or if it's just peculiar to those two specific games but I'm crossing my fingers

Have any of you had a similar experience?

I appreciate when #scifi authors make up some fictional physics and then describe all fictional technology as being plausibly based on those physics.

For example, in #MassEffect all the fancy tech works by way of an exotic element that alters the mass of nearby matter.

This gives you shields (bullets with negligible mass can't hurt you), artificial gravity (high mass has a gravitational field), faster-than-light propulsion (negative mass makes an Alcubierre drive possible), and so on.

Meanwhile on Menae, Palaven's largest moon...

Cried today? Need to?

Why does Bailey have his phone speakers in the tips of his fingers?

Excuse me? There's a novel about the Quarian arc? How did I miss that?

Always like these missions. "Hey, ever heard of Shepard? The one that fought her way through an army of cloned Krogan and heretical Geth to kill Saren? We can take her if we just throw enough flesh bags at her. Promise."

Anyone giving Shepard's hamster a name and why is it Boo?

Decided to finally pick up my latest Shepard where I left of a couple of months ago. Killing Collectors and Batarians just sounds about right for today's mood

Mass Effect 5
#3D #3DCG #shota #MirandaLawson #MassEffect

So @thatfrisiangirlish and I decided to do a parallel playthrough of Mass Effect. We have both decided upon the squishes. I play Adept and ae plays Engineer. The light armor/Light equip load caster classes. I have always been driven more towards DPS mage and Tally has always been driven towards Rogue. Tally plays sneak archer, I play no armor mage or spellsword in Skyrim for example. I play Warlock or Sorc, Ae plays Ranger or Rogue in BG3 for another.

This is a chance for me to play chaotic biotic (Left with the purple hair ) and aer to play strategic engineer (Right with the red ). Yes it's Legendary edition and yes it's modded.
