Just curious if people know how reddit works. I don't recall one person being able to down its any opinion

Ah si you're just mad they aren't a pro-andromeda echo chamber that is obsessed with Jason like this forum is. K Honest question: do you know how to read? Because it seems like you don't know how to read. It's cool, man. There's all kinds of children's literacy programs out there, just let me know if you need help finding one. I'll say this media3.giphy.com/media/GW2T1xarSPTnG/200_s.gif

Monica21 : People do call out JS but he's upvoted because he takes the time to interact with the sub, something that BW does not do. I take his reporting with a grain of salt but I do appreciate his taking the time to answer questions. fatherjerusalem : I don't know who started it but that's irrelevant to my point. You're upset because "we jump on Jason's dick" whatever that means. You don't like the fact that r/masseffect allows negative ME:A opinions alongside the positive ones. You're free to create a private group if you want to filter opinions. smilesja : suikoden is an absolute negative influence here and [collective] you should find a way to run him out as most of you want him gone anyways. No, I don't like that r/masseffect suppresses and downvotes positive opinions and that you, by your own admission, delight in driving away users who enjoy the games. Just so we're clear on what I like and dislike. Ah si you're just mad they aren't a pro-andromeda echo chamber that is obsessed with Jason like this forum is. K

The question about Jason's reporting is up for debate, but there are very good reasons why he's considered a bit of a dick on these forums, and it's not because he's got some issue with Bioware. Posting screenshots on your twitter to invite your fans to troll the poster is just... well, as I say, he deserves all the shit he gets on here. Plus the fact we all know he is suikoden Really? I thought three other people were Jason. Is everyone on this forum Jason? How do I know you aren't Jason masquerading as a hater to ward off suspicion

Right. You're upset that people interact with Jason Schreier and don't immediately trash him like you all do here. Most of you here are upset because ME:A is not praised constantly. Basically, you all want a hugbox and are angry that you can't get it. If it upsets you that much make a private group only for pro-ME:A opinions. TIL "questioning" = "trashing". And not to get all schoolyard on you, but uh... he kind of started it by posting screenshots including a bunch of personal information and posting them on twitter for his followers to mock and harass. But, you know, ethics... gaming journalism... all that. Care to show this personal information because all I see are posts which kind of deserved to be mocked.

We have plenty of Fandromedans around just not the cultish ones. I think the one we insta-downvote is actually a poster here who claims "anyone who criticizes Andromeda supports people who want to kill BW developers" or some such. We have another one who claims ME:A is "the best game ever" and calls the rest of us retards for disagreeing but that person is mostly entertaining at this point. Like I said, feel free to visit the sub and participate. We welcome all reasonable voices.Ron Howard voice: "Unfortunately, that was a lie." You seem under the impression that it's impossible to have already been a part of the r/masseffect community and seen first hand how positive posts are treated around there... I mean, god, y'all jump squarely on Jason's dick and anyone who says that they want to wait for more information to come out gets brigaded with downvotes. Meanwhile you feel the need to call people cunts for daring to disagree with you. There's a reason BSN is considered scum and posts like yours kind of prove the mockery is completely warranted.

no, this applies to the internet as a whole. i've seen people on twitter be harassed off the site because a popular account retweeted them plenty of times, in fact it's pretty much how that entire website functions (google "callout culture"). but you go on believing what you want i guess. Yes this is the most common and pathetic way these cowardly people behave and anyone backing them is equally sad because laughing at a person fearing being harassed is sick. Meanwhile the andromeda romance thread boasted about harassing a guy enough to delete his account but apparently that's fine and dandy.

Why the ire? Jason is simply reporting what his sources have communicated to him, nothing more. I think you need to catch up on this before commenting on it. I can't think of the last time where 'just reporting what sources have said' involved lurking on forums gathering screenshots to make twitter trolls like some freaky stalker. Ignoring the fact that BSN is as bad as people think?

I like how people forget before Andromeda released, some people made romance leaks from anonymous sources and this forum believed them. Suddenly, a reliable journalist also uses anonymous sources for things people don't want to be true and suddenly everyone screams fake. This forum deserves to get mocked

I don't know where to find Codex entries other than in the game. Next time I load it up, I will look, but the game guide did make it seem like if I didn't choose Reyes, the outpost would not happen safely. Strange, I'm looking at the game guide with the High Noon quest and it never says anything like that. It just talks about how both will let you set up an outpost on Kadara. Then there are people like Dr. Nakamoto who mentions that he hates to admit it but Sloane is keeping her word about protecting your outpost, fighting back attacks on it from the Collective and other exile gangs. I wonder if the Codex changes depending on your choice. Codex entries do change based on choices

I found it interesting because I hadn't finished the Kadara plot in my first playthrough by the time I got to Meridian, but Sloane still came to lend a hand. She's an interesting character, but morally speaking, I think she's a shitty choice for leader of Kadara port. But maybe she needed to be given how shitty the rest of the exiles were. Exactly. If she really wanted war against the Initiative, she would have sat out the Battle of Meridian so that all her enemies would either wipe themselves out or at least be made a lot weaker. Yet despite having no reason to help, she does. Doesn't the Outcast codex say Outcasts raid Initiative ships and outposts ? Also, she straight up says she'll kill the kadara outpost if she feels like it. How is that helping?

Is that a opinion you've formed from having lived or worked in a third-world country? Like, legitimately third-world. Failing to non-existent institutions, widespread hunger, extreme poverty at a subsistence level? I see you are taking this debate very seriously

Then how would you react if Reyes ruling does wind up bing better? Also, "used to be good" doesn't make up for the shit she does. Ever heard of road to yell is paved with good intention? Any actual proof that the collective is worse than Sloane? I'd argue Reyes' greed guarantees peace because war with the Initiative would just bring misery but peace and reconciliation with the Initiative means more money and profit so I guarantee he'd be better simply for that. I like Reyes, so I'd be happy to see his better nature win out over greed, duplicity and whatnot. He's instantly likable, even knowing he's a criminal. I hope we see him again. In that case, I'd mourn Sloane and what might've been. She was a hopeful idealist, like many Initiative personnel, at one point. I'd hate to see her story end in that way. Keeping them both alive is one more advantage to my siding with Sloane, I guess. The quote about good intentions is perfect for Sloane, and many Nexus exiles. This life is not what they had in mind when they joined the Ai, yet here they are. No, of course there's no proof that one is superior. It's all conjecture. We don't really get to see either under favorable circumstances. Reyes could use the Collective for good, I guess. This would mean altering its current goals and structure, though. They're professional criminals, and not all would take well to becoming a peaceful, sharing ally of the Nexus. In regard to both Sloane's Exiles and Reyes' Collective, in reminded of Bane Massani's words: "Most exiles are assholes; and not the likable kind." Reyes' a-holes seem to be more evolved, but it's hard to say, since they haven't been in power like Sloane's. Considering just that Reyes helps the angaran resistance plus donates food and medicine, I'd say he's better than Sloane

Post by thesupremedarkone on Apr 25, 2017 21:47:09 GMT
The reason I chose Reyes in the game was because Sloane isn't protecting the people of Kadara port. She's extorting them with rising protection fees and kicking them out (and having them beat or killed in the street) if they can't pay. While she's in charge it's Reyes and the Collective supporting the clinic and food wagon in the slums. And she develops a drug, Oblivion to get the people she supposedly protects addicted. When the Collective is in charge, instead of the Kadara citizen paying protection fees, he charges trade fees or tariffs (the Turian in Elaaden says the Charatan/Collective now takes a cut of her profits when she sells salvage there but she's still making a good living). To me Sloane seems to run Kadara like a mafia don, not Reyes. Also I read the book before getting to Kadara. In the book, Sloane thinks about creating a better world/system than the Alliance and Tann's AI, then goes and extorts people and sells drugs, so I was very disillusioned with her "that's what you consider a better system of government!". Other than torturing and killing their enemies, I don't see how the Collective is like the mafia. Sloane is the one to me that seems out for personal gain, not Reyes. I agree that Reyes is ruthless and this choice mighty very well bite me in the ass (actually that would be great because then the choice would have meaning) but can you explain to me why you think the Collective is like the mafia more than Sloane? I mean both are organizations of criminals, but one seems to do things for the little people and the other doesn't, so I picked the one that appears to help the little guy over the one that appears to screw them over. If you pick Sloane does she change how she runs things or appear to want to amend her oppressive policies? The brutal realities of life in exile, and the changes this wrought upon the exiles, is clear. Sloane is protecting the people of Kadara. Without her, all of the angara would be dead or exalted. They were corralled and being processed when she arrived. The Ai personnel would be dead or living in a totally lawless environment. Without Sloane's harsh rule, you get people like the cannibals in the badlands rising to the top. Sloane's rule is harsh, but it's keeping far worse at bay. Sloane willingly gave up her life, essentially, to save these fool exiles. It has not been ideal, but it's worked long enough for a Pathfinder to arrive and start repairing the damage. I'm not sure how you can't see that the Collective is an organized criminal syndicate. You fell for Reyes' charm and Collective propaganda too readily. Reyes seemingly isn't a terrible person, but he won't necessarily be in charge forever. Criminal enterprises always put profit ahead of the welfare of other beings. While Sloane's Kadara might gradually be reabsorbed into the Initiative, the Collective's Kadara never will. Criminal businesses don't just shutdown and cede power, thus ceasing to function as a business. The only "improvements" one can even claim to see is the pleasure of a few at being out from under Sloane's fees and oppressive order. Their opinions can't be given much weight, since they've not yet experienced the Collective's rule. "Give it 6 months, and then get back to me with an actual comparison, random NPC #26." Thats my two credits. We ultimately won't know what happens with either decision, until BioWare chooses to follow up with this story thread. Then how would you react if Reyes ruling does wind up bing better? Also, "used to be good" doesn't make up for the shit she does. Ever heard of road to yell is paved with good intention? Any actual proof that the collective is worse than Sloane? I'd argue Reyes' greed guarantees peace because war with the Initiative would just bring misery but peace and reconciliation with the Initiative means more money and profit so I guarantee he'd be better simply for that.

Do her extorting the outpost is ok? Minute I heard that, she was dead. No regrets So taxation is not allowed? She's in charge and she taxes everyone. If they don't pay the taxes, then they have to leave. It's that simple. What does she do with that money? She protects Kadara port by killing Kett. She probably has to use the money to investigate the Collective now. It probably has not been cheap considering how toxic Kadara's water supply is and she has to maintain all the machines at the port. Reyes taxes trade which is better than public beatings. Also lol at thinking extortion is taxation
