And there we go, the list is done now... well done with this stuff - I'm sure we'll have a lot more to complain about in several hours.

What about the intro, when Miranda hands him one? If I recall correctly.


Checked that, I could use that, but it's too short and there's a scene, IIRC, with a close-up of his face holding a datapad. Hmm...

Perhaps we can get the Wikia guys to help protest this? Get them to delete all entries related to Deception or something? Get the point across to Bioware that we don't want this to exist as canon?


No, they HAVE to post them. They are better than that.

But they have to do it RIGHT.

Go here and read on their plans-

The error searching never ends.

Is there such a thing as reputation in the professional author community? Because I really wonder what Dietz's is amongst them.

You don't see his face, but you see him hand the datapad to a subordinate over his back, as if discarding it. Could work.

As hillarious as some of this is,  I do want point out that you can look to hard for errors.  For example:

"76. A salarian is said to have “Big , luminous eyes” - Salarian eyes do not glow. [Error: Lore]"


To me that simply sounds like an adjective descibing that individual Salarian's eyes.   Like being told you have "glittering eyes" or "radiant eyes" doesnt mean a humans eyes really glitter or radiate.   I really doubt they mean to change lore to say Salarian eyes are now luminous with that one word. 

I can only however read those three words.  If someone can say otherwise with more to support it, fair enough. To me though the word "luminous" simply sounds like an adjective and not a lore error.  


The point isn't to judge intent or explain how or why something ended up wrong.  It's simply to catalogue when something conflicts with established facts.  And a salarian with glowing eyes does.  And it doesn't make sense from a more metaphorical POV anyway.  Salarians just don't have brightly colored eyes.  Most are jet black.


I disagree with you on this, Didy.  Luminous eyes, shining eyes, these are common metaphors in fiction, and nobody takes them to mean that the author thinks human eyes glow.  It's ludicrous to bash a writer using a metaphor to describe eyes as a "lore error".  Keeping this on the list throws the genuine errors into question.

Well we could always just toss it into Oddities, which has the more suspect errors.

As long as it stays on the page. We can't afford to lose anything right now. Not with the novel coming out soon.

Yeah do something because it detracts from the real lore errors, which as we all know are quite egregious.
