8 Video Game Bugs That Became Features

5. Mass Effect 1 - 3

Conrad Verner has a mission in all three Mass Effect games, and his sister even has her own mission in Mass Effect: Andromeda. According to BioWare's former community head Chris Priestley, he was somewhat beloved among the development team.

When you first meet Conrad, there are a number of different ways to deal with him. You can tell him to shove off and avoid his quest altogether, you can provide him with an autograph and inspire him to go home to his non-existent wife... or, in classic renegade fashion, you can point a gun in his face and tell him to make better life choices.

But due to a glitch when exporting your save file from Mass Effect 1 to 2, regardless of how you dealt with Conrad in the first game he will accuse you of waving a gun in his face and renounces you as his hero.

When running into Conrad in Mass Effect 3 he will apologize for saying you pointed a gun at him if you never actually did the first time you met him. He blames his poor memory on how "stressed and confused" he was at the time.

Maybe you really shouldn't meet your heroes.
