So yeah, the constant "temperature/hazard checks" and "you're in a mining area" is starting to get on my nerves. I'm in Voeld (frozen planet) and SAM shouting every minute about temperature being normal or hazardous is getting annoying to the point I wish I could mute him. I know the stupid temperature! I'm watching it on my screen, I'm not blind goddammit! Why they thought it was a good idea to have an AI thing babysitting you at every step is beyond me.

Wait til Elaaden It didn't annoy me until Elaaden lol. Every freaking time I go into or out of a shadow, not only does SAM say something, but Ryder often makes a comment about the heat too. Bioware really needs to add a 20-30 second counter, if not longer, in between the environment comments.

Honestly, after awhile I just stopped hearing him blather on and on lol. My ears just tuned him out 90% of the time, and only started listening again during main quests. It's inane, but personally I am far more annoyed by the stupid Sudoku puzzles.

Puzzles should be left to Facebook. and the reasons they exist is even more annoying : a sudoku to open a Vault, that's all a super advanced terra forming mysterious civilization could come up with ? like the silly hopscotch in DA:I , to think they were elven rituals ..hahaha . gotto love RPG's for the sublime and the ridiculous.

Yes, I absolutely hate puzzles, like so many Vaults you go into, you gotta figure out particular Consoles to use in particular order. A race of people who live in this structure is not going to design consoles like this. I hate when Developers don't take that type of thinking into account when designing something. "Hm, you know, how would the ppl who lived here use this?" That's world building without words. This game is loaded with asinine puzzles just for the sake of having puzzles, and puzzles are awful imo.

A shut up SAM option should be part of the first patch of fixes, I don't know why BioWare intentionally do shit like this.
Like the stupid droid in SWTOR, it doesn't shut up when you walk around the ship. Now sure they removed the droids from the ship of anyone who is max level, but max levels don't even go on the ship anymore it's a ghost town. The only time you're on the ship is leveling, and the droid, by gawd, the droid. I apologize for the droid rant, but I hate them, so much.
Sammy Boy is even worse though, because it's not just the ship, it's everywhere. And should be an easy problem for them to fix, but I don't see them doing it, BioWare knew full well that SAM would be annoying, he's designed to be annoying.

That is one of my biggest gripes with the game to be honest. Its fine during missions, but constantly reminding me of things that i already know and is actually shown on screen is very annoying. Should've had an option to mute him on those things.

Ryder the temperature has fallen below acceptable parameters
Ryder the temperature has now risen to acceptable levels
Ryder extreme cold detected
Ryder the temperature has now risen again to more acceptable levels
Ryder, remember I'm still inside your head when you're wanking over Cora at night and it's extremely uncomfortable
Ryder the temperature has decreased below acceptable parameters

Is it time to start official SAM hate club? God, I miss EDI sometimes. I'm more worried that the Krogan is the only one questioning putting an AI in their head. The Zha'til from the Prothean cycle where created when the Zha put AI in their heads that could alter the physical body. Exactly the same thing. Its like a shadow hanging over my Ryder.

Yeah, those lines get really repetitive and really shouldn't have been said each and every time. Once or twice in the beginning would have been fine and would have sufficed.

I don't understand why Bioware didn't just gave us the option to talk to SAM on either the Hyperion or on Tempest about how much we want him to tell us. like if we only want him to tell us when the suit's life support is on critical he can just "Hey, you are going to die, maybe do something."
And I can see the reasoning behind telling us that it is cold/hot/whatever (a bit zealot maybe) but why do he need to tell me how to MINE EVERY SINGLE TIME? It is not like it is very complicated.

Heh. Starting? Just wait for the mods - removing annoying SAM notifications will be on top of my list to get first. Which mods? it's not a Bethesda game in which modders can fix what the devs did wrong, BW games never had official mod support, and I doubt it'll start now they're using a third party engine notorious for not allowing any type of modification whatsoever. The best we can hope is a "turn off SAM" option in the menu from the devs in a upcoming patch. I'm more worried that the Krogan is the only one questioning putting an AI in their head. The Zha'til from the Prothean cycle where created when the Zha put AI in their heads that could alter the physical body. Exactly the same thing. Its like a shadow hanging over my Ryder. That was my exact thought when they first mentioned this. I was like "Wait...haven't we just spent an ENTIRE TRILOGY explaining and showcasing the dangers of AI? wtf is going on here!?" Now that you guys mention it... yeah it does sound rather inadvisable. I guess that's the best idea they could come up with to explain why we can switch "profiles" on the field, because apart from that it doesn't really make sense to have the AI thing on our heads 24/7, it could've been a less invasive thing like EDI was in ME3.

It's inane, but personally I am far more annoyed by the stupid Sudoku puzzles. I experienced my first one on Eos last night. What a major pain in the ass that was. It took me almost an hour to figure it out, and that was prior to the hour I found 3 brutes with no ammo left and my squad mates dying every 5 seconds. We finally beat them using my powers and their weapons during the few shorts seconds they were alive, but damn. It was fun though, but the puzzle afterward....strange.
