    This is a known compatibility issue with all AMD CPUs from the FX series onward. Hopefully this will be fixed in the Legendary Edition that's coming out soon.

    I have an Intel CPU, so I haven't been able to test this, but this mod is supposed to fix it: https://www.nexusmods.com/masseffect/mods/181

    Some commenters says the above mod doesn't work with all affected CPUs, in which case you should try FPS Counter: https://www.nexusmods.com/masseffect/mods/71

@Swat8422 This isn't a mod to increase FPS, if that's what you're saying. It's a collection of rendering techniques that also has a method to fix the black blob fix. These are the only non-destructive methods that work without changing your hardware or waiting for the remaster.

There is another method, but it affects image quality. It's a console command to disable lighting, which also disables the blob effect: https://steamcommunity.com/app/17460/discussions/0/846958223131451834/
