SAM needs a mute button

Pathfinder, the temperature is within acceptable limits
Pathfinder, the temperature is falling
Pathfinder, you can mine this area you've already mined for resources
Pathfinder, Hey! Listen!


That said Navi never interrupted companion dialogue to tell me it was hot every time I dared leave the shade.

Yes for the love whatever you love yes. I cannot put in to words just how much I DESPISE THE AWFUL FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT AI ALL THE DAMNED TIME!

Yeah, I don't know if access to AI-controlled molecular and physically enhanced reactions is worth having SAM for the rest of my life w/out a mute button.

Poor SAM. He's just trying to help

I love SAM. However, I have to agree there are times where SAM should be silent. Let's not blame SAM here. It is SAM's creator BioWare we should be pointing the finger at.

There should be options in perhaps the audio section to disable SAM dialogue for those repetitive times (environmental warnings). Instead, simply use a basic visual and/or audible warning, and perhaps our red screen of death from MET--that one always got my attention.

Or, a simple optional dialogue popup the first time SAM begins warning of environmental conditions. "Ryder, I do realize the constant environmental warning and ok status may be (are!) incredibly annoying. Your father didn't seem to mind despite his surly facade, but it clearly bothers you. I give you the option to disable the warning/okay system now (dialogue option to shut it). I will however continue to provide basic visual and audible reminders of your impending doom or safety status--as non-intrusively as my programming will allow--since you at times are distracted or uncaring enough for your own safety."

QA? we have dismissed this claim.

I am extremely grateful for the ground breaking insights provided by EA/Bioware and the game Mass Effect Andromeda.

As every symbiotic relationship has pros and cons, MEA makes it painfully obvious what the cons would be if we were to attempt to form a symbiotic relationship with artificial intelligence.

Humanity may now understand that future AI technology such as SAM must be avoided at all costs.

Thank you EA/Bioware!

Your contribution to humanity shall not be forgotten!

Thats what I always said. Creepy, sick AI.

How I feel about SAM...

Its worst then Preston Garvey's i'll mark it on your map line. You can at least ignore him and not have to speak with him. Here, the minute you walk anywhere its "hey, Pathfinder its cold outside you might want a jacket, just sayin."

I'd like to shut him up for mining options, temperatures - well maybe one warning when life support gets critical - and email I don't even have. Confine him to the serious stuff, if that's OK. Maybe they patch him to say what's important and nothing else. But I'm not holding my breath.

Great for those on PC, of no use to the rest of us.
