Instead of cutting ass shots they should've changed Ashley ME3's haircut to a proper one. How hard can it be?

Smudboy knows Codex, and Codex knows Smudboy. There was a little war about real-time with pause versus turn-based.

The face looks better, but the outfit looks dumb. That's not a suit that you'd wera into battle, it's some kind of weird future dress/shirt thing.

I agree but the point is that haircut and lack of any makeup is so much more suitable for her. I mean,

Welcome to the Codex, smudboy.

Have you seen the like/dislike-ratio of the video you posted?

1.) im not him. nice try tho.
2.) What does the like/dislike ratio have to do with the arguments presented in the video?
Shepard's death and subsequent resurrection is a debatable subject (I personally couldn't care, because it serves its purpose story and gameplay wise), but I turned the video off after two minutes when I saw the following nonsense (I will just assume that the guy is a physics noob and dunning-kruger type):

1. Suffocation would kill Shepard long before anything else. There is also no reason to assume that Shepard's suit (and air tank) had completely depressurized. If it did, then he would not instantly die or blow up in the vacuum anyway, that is Hollywood physics. Especially not when your tight protective suit is nearly completely intact to prevent the body from expanding. it is also preposterous to assume that Shepard would instantly freeze in space due to puncture holes in his suit, which also happens to be Hollywood physics.

2. He assumes that atmospheric entries are imperatively hot, which is not true. A cold (low velocity) atmospheric entry is indeed physically possible. What was Shepards velocity upon entering the atmosphere? Apparently not high enough to have him burn to a crisp and disintegrate.

3. The guy needs to polish up on his physics, because the drag caused by a planet's atmosphere slows down objects to terminal velocity.

My team has the sexiest and deadliest waifus you can recruit.
There's a youtuber named Smudboy who goes into exhaustive detail about why killing shepard was a poor narrative decision

:what:
There's a multi-installment article by Shamus Young that does the same thing for ME:Andromeda's plot. It's a pretty good read, if only to see all the many, many issues.

"your fantasy setting has issues when I analyze the science behind it! These magic missiles are unrealistic!"
yeah I can think of far better ways to analyze and critique mass effect

there's no point in analyzing the physics of a soft sci-fi setting, this is like analyzing the physics of a star trek episode
True. Just suspend your disbelief, if you must, and enjoy.

It is just particularly autistic and plain stupid to criticize things that don't bend the laws of physics even in the slightest (with space magic or what), which is what smudboy was doing in his video.

Now that sounds even more ridiculous. I even like ME2. I just thought 6 videos about it's plot is way too much.
Here my single-installment analysis of ME:A's plot:

It's shit.
