There is only one mission that springs to mind where it is possible to directly kill civilians in the entire Mass Effect franchise. And that's where terrorists have taken over the compound.
I can understand a shocked reaction but it's a shame people don't look into what they are blaming.

To quote Perls Two things are infinite, as far as we know, the universe and human stupidity. To-day we know that this statement is not quite correct. Einstein has proved that the universe is limited.Spector29 said:
What you're seeing is the desperate clawing of addicts trying to avoid the truth. America (or, a large portion of) is addicted to guns, like any addict they'll cling to anything that means they don't have to face that fact, however absurd or broken the logic they create to justify it, in their head it makes perfect sense, because they're addicted.
What they need is help, but God help anyone trying to give it them.
If there's anyone I wanted dead more in that game, it was that Nightwing looking wanna be mutha-fucker. I hated him soooooooooooooooooo much. I was glad I finally killed him.Vault101 said:
OT: OP's avatar and the music of the video go hand in hand. I also wonder what would happen if a serial killer was found to be an avid fan of the Kingdom Hearts series. Can you imagine the backlash Disney would get? People would probably try to outlaw the power of friendship and heart.
I don't have the words to describe how stupid and uninformed these people are. 'Mass-Effect-Child-Killing-Simulator' Yep, as far as i recall there was only one child NPC in the entire trilogy and he died while trying to evacuate with a transporter. The protagonist had nightmares about it the entire game, ok, at least 3 times i think, clearly that was enough to make this a child killing simulator.
As soon as the massacre happened, sick people tried using it to further their own agendas.
As I recall, Iran state TV immediately blamed it on Israel, because why not? After you've blamed shark attacks in Egypt on the Mossad, any inhibitions against looking stupid are clearly non-existent, so you might as well go all the way.

Remember when Gone with the Wind was Rated R because of the word "Damn?" Man those were crazy times.
It's like the masses of people laying flowers for Princess Diana, those people were trying to make themselves part of the story. Jumping on this "Blame Mass Effect bandwagon" is just a way for lazy people to feel like they matter. Meanwhile, a child in a third world country see his parents murdered and is then conscripted by an insane despot responsible for said murders and is forced to kill people who never did that child wrong in order to survive. Blaming video games for insane people doing insanely violent things is just another case of First World Problems, and people unable to accept that no amount of social engineering can create Utopia where nothing bad ever happens.
Man, there goes my last shred of belief in humanity. you know what's interesting though? The actual shooter did like a video game, but it wasn't mass effect 3.
It was Dance dance revolution.
Well shit, guess those facebook idiots are right. Games do inspire violence. Thats probably why i want to bash their skulls in.

The content of the game itself rarely matters. We've all seen and played games that are oh so much more violent than Mass Effect of all things. That's not the point. The point is the media needs to pick on the most popular, most played game, not the most "immoral". That way you make a stronger case than by flogging some game no parents have heard of. It's GTA all over, because that game was the most popular of its time, and now enter ME.
You're only making it worse! Maybe I'm just reading it wrong, but your not making a case for what you mean!Vault101 said:
I think the internet is a free world in which tards can be tards, and it doesn't bother me unless they are hypocrites too. Like, if you can post evidence that these tards are apart of a gun-club, than sure. I'll put on my hood and attend the internet lynching, but until then me and those jerks are on the same level, if you know what I mean.
So you agree with them that Mass Effect was the reason for the killings ? Because that's what I understood from you being on the same level as the ignorant fools, if you see what I mean.TheScientificIssole said:
"Ignorant fools"? Cool down, Ming The Merciless! I meant it in a joking attitude. But, no, I do not agree with them. But I believe we are on the same level: Douche-bags on the Internet.Yokillernick said:
