The format of these posts is simple: let's discuss a specific game or series!
Let's discuss the Mass Effect series. What is your favorite game in the series? What aspects do you like about it? What doesn't work for you? Are there other games that gave you similar feelings? Feel free to share any thoughts that come up, or react to other peoples comments. Let's get the conversation going!
If you have any recommendations for games or series for the next post(s), please feel free to DM me or add it in a comment here (no guarantees of course).

It's all about tone. The original comment was incredibly combative and hyperbolic ("I utterly loathe Mass Effect. I consider it one of the worst pieces of science-fiction ever created.") so much so that it would easily be mistaken for flamebait given the thread was likely to attract fans of the series.
It certainly didn't strike me as the start of an open-minded conversation.
But in hindsight I should've just downvoted and moved on rather than commenting as I did, so that's on me.
