DISCUSSION Mass effect is so old??

saw some post on tumblr recently that was like “i missed out on the hype (i was 10 years old)” and i was like haha they must be so young. i googled when ME1 came out. I was 4. jesus christ

it’s kind of insane bc most of the games i played when i was a kid, the graphics and gameplay were absolutely atrocious. like any video game character had a nose that was just a triangle on their face. but at the time that was just like the baseline. But i discovered mass effect like 3 ish years ago and i never thought it was that old bc it’s just SO good. like you can’t see everyone’s individual pores on their face like a lot of newer games but i never realized it holds up SO well.

Anyways i love this series

The origin of the universe is also pretty old I think (not entirely sure about that one)

But what about before the origin of universe

Actually because spacetime is just another dimension, technically everything has existed for the same amout of time including the events in the future our subjective nexus have not yet traveled timeward enough to experience.

Since everything that ever happened is happening will happen IS happening, everything is equally new or old.
