Should be an interesting week. The end(ish) to a neverending story. #Space!
Top ten favourite moments at BioWare - Guy who programed Geth AI playing ME3MP during development: "NO! STOP! DON'T KILL ME! I CREATED YOU!"
@Derek_Hollan @cancerbaby That’s how it always goes. http://www.ipukr.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/image.png …

Yep! It has begun...
I’ve had backlogs with task cards reading
“Sebastian creates skynet [2 weeks]”
“Skynet solves enemy AI [1 day]”
Haha...Ah, Skynet...how I miss thee...![]()

On a completely unrelated note, 6 years ago to the day, starry-eyed me started working for @bioware, on a game called Mass Effect 2.
My very first job after training/settling in? Blowing up the Normandy. You're welcome.
Your delicious tears. Feed me them.
Uh, I mean, sorry for blowing up the Normandy! I helped give you a new, better one though!
Disclaimer: Blowing up the Normandy was the work of a bunch of awesome people, I just did the technical/design and pacing work on it.
Another disclaimer: All videogame work, unless you're a 1 man indie team, is basically a collaboration between a bunch of awesome people.
If I tell you I made Jack's Loyalty mission, or the Shadowbroker ship exterior, or the hub in Citadel DLC, that's 5+ people each time.
I just do a small part in building the things I help build, and my work is usually invisible to you as a player (as it should be).
Clarification: 1 man or woman indie team! Women make videogames! They're as rad at it as men are. And they bring valuable perspective!
Maybe Jos (or someone else) can tell us if blowing up the Normandy and killing Shepard was done just so we could get a new ship, a new face, and a new class?

FOR. LIFE.
I love that the future rocket scientist is wearing an N7 hoodie.

This Mass Effect cosplay combat photo shoot = amazing! http://goo.gl/dE3Gzh Kaidan: @delucacostumes Shepard: @TashaMD Garrus: @Jadarendir

Also that the poster presentation behind her is in red white and black and looks to use the same font as ME.
Not ME:N exactly, but maybe some of you will like the tunes:

From a game standpoint, I know that ME2's opening was built to grab your attention. We wanted people playing to be immediately engaged with what is going on, and wanting to see what's next. It pulls more people through more of the game that way.

I identify as a feminist, so not really. I did want to clarify that it wasn't a blanket statement that ignored female representation in our industry. ![]()
So is mythbusters doing a mass effect show I wonder? ![]()
Okay... I know this is going to be a can-of-worms question Jos, but what are you thoughts on Anita Sarkessian's videos?
