An important thing to keep in mind: This petition is largely being supported by diehards. The people who would have gone out and bought the game on day one, no matter what. This is not yet counting the millions of casuals who would have been swayed by a good ad campaign. A publisher which is massively in debt just made yet another costly mistake.

People who act like they can’t live without Gen AI are some of the most depressing people I’ve ever met… 🫩

Nintendo sue Claude and pop the AI bubble and I won’t ever judge you again
Nintendo is angry that datamines for Switch 2 games are now possible and have started issuing DMCA takedown notices.

Hold. The. Line. Gear up for N7 Day by booting up the Legendary Edition and setting the Steam charts on fire. Awesome initiative by @Astralaeyna! #SaveMassEffect
N7s, we have our mission. 🫡 Saturday, November 7: boot up Mass Effect Legendary Edition on Steam and let’s light up the public player charts. Play what you already own. New sales just tell EA the IP earns fine sitting in the vault. Show them how many of us are still here. Share this. Bring your crew. 💙 #SaveMassEffect #HoldTheLine

‘WILDWOOD’ director Travis Knight says Laika will NEVER use AI in its films: “AI is theft. It’s the ingestion of years and years and years of human creativity and ingenuity, regurgitated back. It has no humanity. It has no spirit.” (Via: theplaylist.net/wildwood-tra…)

According to Tim here, not a single multiplayer game on steam has the ability to cross play with other platforms. I must have been hallucinating playing the latest COD last night on steam and being freely able to play with console players and chat with them
Exactly this. Valve has held gaming back for years by locking developers’ PC games into Steamworks’ social walled garden where players can’t talk to other players on iOS, Android, Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, or even other PC stores.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
You can use Steam Datagram Relay (and its servers) on any platform as long as your title ships on Steam. partner.steamgames.com/doc/features/m…

Mass Effect's own composer, Sam Hulick, is re-scoring the Mass Effect Universe trailer and plans to release it on N7 Day. For a game EA cancelled. 📅 Saturday, Nov 7 — N7 Day 🎶 Hulick's re-scored trailer 🎮 N7 Play Day, 1–4 PM CT: boot up Legendary Edition on Steam and spike the player charts The people who built this universe aren't letting go. Neither are we. 🔁 Repost so every Commander has Nov 7 on their calendar. 🫡 #SaveMassEffect
Alright. My plan is to release the re-scored Mass Effect Universe trailer for N7 Day. A little tight, since I'm a bit busy pitching for a new game, but I'll see what I can do! I don't wanna rush it, and I want it to properly represent my musical vision for MEU.

this is still being negotiated between council and parliament so “approved” is misleading here but rest assured that if they dare to pass this shit i will try to post a list of all the names in parliament who voted for it and make it easily accessible AND searchable
‼️ EU governments approved a GDPR change to let companies train AI on Europeans' personal data without consent. It makes AI training a possible "legitimate interest", judged case by case. Parliament must still agree. Max Schrems calls it a "digital expropriation" of Europeans.

Everyone #SaveMassEffect explicitly means saving BIOWARE. Mass Effect is a Bioware IP and Bioware was working on it and they should be able to finish what they started. c.org/X5KB87JXLC

When a car goes 25 mph nobody cares. That’s what it was designed to do. When a human being runs 25 mph, it’s an accomplishment because a HUMAN BEING achieved it. Nobody gives a shit if a machine spits out the code, art, and animations and creates a game. The reason games are successful comes from people experiencing the developer’s own vision. It’s not just about the product and the profit, it’s about seeing people’s ideas come to life through their own work. Here’s a hard-to-swallow pill for people who support AI: Having dreams and ideas is not actually impressive, everybody has them. It’s putting in the effort yourself to make them happen that makes it impressive, and if you think people will still appreciate that when you used an AI to do the hard work for you then you clearly don’t know what it means to truly create.

#SaveMassEffect The idea that doing all this is pointless is extremely flawed. None of us know what’s gonna happen here. What we DO know is Mass Effect and BioWare stay dead without intervention. This is simply fans being the ones to intervene, or at least start to.

Mass Effect gave us some peak variations of the N7 Armor Militaristic for that war like battlefield Pathfinder for more sleeker + explorative journey Mass Effect Universe would've had a trenchcoat styled N7 Agent outfit #SaveMassEffect now / tomorrow / forever

It's not really the petition itself. It and related actions both put public pressure on EA and demonstrate there's real demand for not just another entry in the series, but the specific reboot BioWare was developing (a game closer to being finished than many of us thought).
Let's be honest, a 200,000-300,000 petition isn't going to do a thing for EA to bring Mass Effect: Universe back. They are nice. But have we ever seen a petition work against a major gaming corp like that?
