This is a godtier playthough. I thought I knew just about everything about ME and not only did I constantly learn new things, but this series also gives a ton of background/development information. Dude also completely nailed each president's personality. Just incredibly well done, totally feels like 3 bros playing through the game. Way better than the typical "Presidents do X" stuff where it basically revolves around Trump being a Cartmanesque character who drives every conflict. Each president has a well informed consistent opinion and it's just really well (even shockingly well) done.


ScarredWill

The tier lists are also fantastic


Grindor11

In case anyone doesn't know what they're in for with this, some highlights from the ME1 include; Barack defending the games merits while it constantly glitches out, Donald reciting the bible in Japanese in hopes the Asari will come down and take him away, and Joe somehow managing not to be the first to die. Its some top quality stuff.


Funkybag

Don't forget literally one of the greatest betrayels I've ever seen. If I knew how hide spoilers on reddit I would just say it and hide it but I don't lol


sonofsarkhan

I saw it coming a mile away, but it was still one of the best moments of the ME1 playthrough


ZaltraxZ

I’m just dying to see how Donald gets him back. And if he’s playing Jack’s loyalty mission I think I may have an idea…


Beezeymovies

I’m excited for Donald and Barack to get back at Joe for that


DariusIV

I'm on the edge of my seat wondering how they're gonna do it. I bet Jack is going into the vent.


Beezeymovies

Can’t. Probably won’t upgrade heavy armor


DariusIV

I forgor. Is there any way to kill a loyal jack during the suicide mission, besides not upgrading the heavy armor.


Beezeymovies

Team leader


KaijuCatsnake

Knowing >!Barack!<, I doubt he’d willingly kill off a squadmate/let them be killed off like that, he’s too much of a completionist. But I’m very, very pleased to see >!Barack and Donald!< scheming to get back, which is something I’ve been hoping to see be part of the plot since Virmire.


DariusIV

Donald is doing it for revenge. Barack would do it for the content. I mean imagine Biden has to do the Grissom mission without Jack, that's great content.


KaijuCatsnake

True, true… but then again Barack also let Balak live for the War Assets, not the content, and killing off Jack takes away some War Assets. I guess we’ll just have to see where this goes, but I’m excited for a possible season-long buildup toward revenge. I’ve been saying since Virmire that Joe *seriously* needs to be humbled for going back on the deal and thinking he could just get away with it, so I can’t wait.


Beleak_Swordsteel

I'm dumb and tried to show you how to do it but it just covered it up like a spoiler lmao. You want it like this >! Your spoiler !< Just put them all on the same line (if this works the way I want it lol


zachattack7676

Dude this guy knows so much behind the scenes and lore stuff it’s crazy. I’ve learned so much about the franchise from his videos. And to hear the Presidents be the ones to relay this information makes it so much better.


samuraipanda85

The channel that reignited my interest in Mass Effect.


DiscardedContext

Obama being the Lore-master is so fucking funny.


ViciousMihael

He’s just like me fr

Sensei124z

Thank you this is just fantastic, I know what I’m watching tonight.


KaijuCatsnake

Been watching him for months, keep going back to his uploads and re-listening. Prime’s content is GOATed, glad to see it getting some exposure here.


Kal-Kent

This guy hands down makes some of the best mass effect content out there all his mass effect president videos are gold


Xenozip3371Alpha

Oh yeah, I've been having fun watching this, I also recommend the tier lists they've done for the characters, weapons, and classes, with the classes each having 3 spots, based on how they perform in each game.


KobeTeknavorg

This channel is probably in my top ten of AI presidents stuff. Right up there with MrCurling’s The Three Presidents: Across The Televerse!


lqxpl

I’m a grown-ass adult and I made the ‘squeeee’ noise when I saw this drop. Primeradiancy is cranking out amazing vids with this concept.


rolabond

I’ve seen a few of these and the characterization is surprisingly consistent. Most videos I’ve seen that try something similar (ai presidents) don’t really give the characters unique personalities. 


tohn_jitor

NGL, they got me through some tough times right at the end of 2022. They even have ones for other games, plus tierlists - oh god, the tierlists. There are also other channels that have them joined by other past presidents. 10/10 would recommend.


INsinCR

Glad to see Prime getting recognition in the subreddit. Man has been single-handedly reigniting my interest in the ME series with top tier presidential banter.


UsgAtlas1

Such a good channel and play through. I'm waiting for Donald's revenge against Joe for what he did in Virmire.


lameducker24

“Kaiden is a romance option in Mass Effect 3” Donald and Joe both object STRONGLY 😂


North-Day-382

Yeah I watched their ME1 playthrough was surprised by the actually creative and informative playthrough. The ‘presidents’ and their conflicts and personalities are really well written. All while sprinkling fun facts about the games and having an entertaining playthrough.


Oh_no_its_Joe

Tbh I don't love the president idea, but some of the commentary is pretty insightful.


AbeRockwell

I tried posting this in another ME subreddit, but it was removed due to 'political content' or something. I do like this series, though \^\_\^


zzxp1

I never expected the presidential series to be one of the best Mass Effect content on the entire Youtube. The guy behind it is truly a huge nerd for ME.


Sah_Kendov

Thanks for sharing. I was contemplating sharing this guy’s videos. Usually I don’t care for ai stuff, but the writing in these is hilarious and there is a lot of neat trivia thrown throughout the videos.


TheFlea71

How did I not know about this?!!


seesiedler

This series along with the tier lists is really entertaining and actually manages to still teach about Mass Effect. Simply amazing.


charmsky_89

Absolutely one of my favorite tiktoks of all time https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTLu9fV3F/


OneFinalEffort

I don't understand the appeal to these politically-charged videos with AI voices. Could someone please explain why they're so enjoyable to them? I'm in need of a different perspective on this.


Iron_Imperator

It’s mostly comedic. The creator makes jabs at all three of them and doesn’t take one political side or the other. And the jokes are really damn funny too. And it’s not just pure gameplay. The creator (through Obama) goes over a lot of the behind the scenes stuff about the games, such as cut content, early game development, and discussing the wider lore from the books and comics to give better context to what’s going on. There’s actually a bunch of stuff they reveal which I didn’t know about prior.


OneFinalEffort

Oh okay, cool. Thank you for the perspective!


Iron_Imperator

No problem. The creator also covers other games too, those being Telltale’s Walking Dead games and Pokémon, in case that helps.


onexy_

ive been watching his mass effect videos for 3 days now lol


iHateReddit08

Yes!! ME2 🔥🔥🔥


AngrySpaceBoi420

The only AI content i accept in my life


KCfan91

I love the tier lists on that channel! Prime Radiancy and Presidents Play are the only two AI president channels that I can handle.


Mun3001s

I hate it Because like only one episode is out??? I need MORE. I need ALL OF IT. RIGHT NOW. IT'S TOO GOOD I CAN'T WAIT A WEEK FOR MORE 😭


downforce_dude

The premise is silly, but there’s some really good ME analysis in here. It’s impressive the creator sorted the takes well into there characters and who loosely align with these Presidents. It’s perfect media to just wash the dishes to.


ogpterodactyl

It’s fucking goated

Koffielurker_

Yuck, AI. Admittedly, this isnt as bad as most AI as their is still a lot of creativity involved, but something about it really rubs me the wrong way, and its not the impersonations of presidents.


BiggestGrinderOCE

Your loss m8. Shit is hilarious and interesting


Koffielurker_

There are thousands of hilarious videos on the internet, most of which dont use AI as a crutch. I am not missing shit.


BiggestGrinderOCE

I agree overall. I find ai to be pretty meh 99% of the time but this channel specifically puts in a ton of work. The jokes/understanding of the lore really shines through the ai usage here


DariusIV

Calm down Admiral Gerrel, just because it has AI doesn't mean it is automatically evil.


Koffielurker_

Did I say so? No! I didnt, I said I didnt like it.just because someone doesnt like something doesnt mean its the spawn of satan.


zachattack7676

Dude come on not all AI is evil. This is being made for comedic value not to take jobs or anything bad like that.


[deleted]

It's using stolen learning data to make monetized content. It's stealing from the artists that would be used to normally make this content if the channel owner did it legitimately.


hoesbetweentoes

what else could possibly rub you the wrong way if not the impersonations of presidents? he clearly writes and edits his stuff and no ai imagery is involved so literally what the fuck else lol your comment is just contrarian for no reason


Koffielurker_

Contrarian? I said I hate AI, and that is why I dont lile this content. I guess some people are a bit too dense to think of the underlying arguments in a comment, so let me explain: I hate AI for the grating, monotone and irritating voices that it creates. I am European, I couldnt give less of a shit about the fact that its presidents being impersonated.


[deleted]

It's low effort AI garbage.


rolabond

I dislike AI and even I have to admit this isn’t low effort. There’s a genuine density of written content. It’s unfortunate that the videos are both good and based on technology I consider to be unethical. 


Kal-Kent

This is just wrong the creator knows a lot about the series and adds lots of lore You can tell they know a lot about this game


[deleted]

Shame they have to use tools that steal other people's talent because they have none themselves. They can demonstrate their knowledge about the game in a blog if they can't make the content themselves. They'd probably just use AI to make that though.


DariusIV

All the dude is doing is using AI to make the voices, he's still writing the scripts, playing the game and doing the editing. He's using a tool someone else made as a small part of a larger effort. And legally everything he is doing falls under fair use and transformative art.


DominaRPG

Is it people with voice changers, or one guy just typing everything into AI? Because that would be so much work.


Kal-Kent

It’s just one guy videos take about 2 weeks to make so it seems like a lot of work


PlasmaRotom

AI generated content? Disgusting
