are you a bit dense perhaps?

Alright Andromeda sequel.

No one has any expectations for ME anymore.

why is bioware even a thing still?
shouldnt they be bankrupt after such a long time of only producting trash that flops?

>ME1 enjoyed
>ME2 enjoyed
>ME3 panned for retroactively ruining previous 2 games, good multiplayer tho, but then that was removed
>ME:Andromeda hated

The last game people actually liked from this series came out 12 years ago, made by people no longer working at the company owning the rights to make more of the series. Why do we want it to continue? Why do YOU want it to continue?

There are like 3 good writers left in the industry and I don't trust Bioware to make use of any of them

My only expectation/hope is that they phone in the campaign and put the real money where it belongs, the multiplayer horde mode.

>hopium
Yeah ...
Nah.

As you can see, the ship in the OP is of Andromeda Initiative design, so draw your own conclusions.

3 was a great game, the only thing wrong with it was the ending. And for how autistically this board whines about games that are 99% shit that people defend for the 1% of good content, you'd think you fags would stop bashing a game that was 99% good with only the last few minutes of 1% being shit.

I'm tired of her, myself.

>ship landed at a busted anus with shit leaking out of it
Nice metaphor.

I'd say Tuchanka was OK, with the occasional great cutscene, and the rest of the game is dogshit.

I used to replay ME1 and 2 every year before 3 came out
I kinda miss that time

Thought that was a horse pussy at first.

It can't be forgiven because the ending was the most important part. It was the conclusion of the whole fucking trilogy. Imagine if at the end of LoTR they just had gandalf destroy the ring with a spell invalidating the whole journey. Sure there's lots of good shit in 3, but the ending is just utterly unforgivable.

ME2 was enjoyed by the Halo/Gears audience, as the game was made for them. The decline of the series started with the retarded shit in it, asspulled an entire race that didn't help the Reaper in the 1st game because reasons I guess, then you had in the end the human reaper made of human slurpee, among many other retarded shit like the cliche smoking man, and how in a game about choices you can never tell him to fuck off and are forced to work for this guy

There's no hope. DA4 could be the single best RPG from the last 15 years and I'd still have no hope. BioWare is just a name, the people behind their best games are gone. Hell even the team that made ME3 if compared with 2012+10 BioWare is also drastically different, in games like BotW or REmake 2 you hear how having a good mix of veteran devs that know how things work and brand new young devs that have the will to try new things the old guard wouldn't even think about was beneficial for the projects and it helped them; but for BioWare and a lot of other studios you just know the "old devs" are either phoning it in or out of touch, and the "young new devs" care more about the pronouns in their Twitter bio than about making a great piece of art in an IP they care about. If for some reason you saw the trailer where they milk the N7 familiarity and fucking Liara for the fourth consecutive time and still have hope, I don't know what to tell you.

You colossal fucking retard. If you're talking about normies, they liked 3 until five minutes before the ending. If you're talking about people that care deeply about that, ME2 is as bad if not infinitely worse by creating the problems 3 had to then deal with

>westcuck garbage

Who's Will Continue, and who's he playing in this Mass Effect movie?

based kalo

Technically, Liara is in for the fifth time, as she has some audio logs in ME:A as well. They literally can't make a game without her, and their answer to any and all criticism, is just amping the Liara content, with each new title.

The mentally ill are excited because they know it will be nothing like the originals and pander solely to them since mentally ill people are making it

>the only thing wrong with it was the ending
>tali_photo.jaypeg

I will say it again, ME2 could have done everything people think it should and ME3 would have been a worse game for it.

Place your bets! What are the odds she'll be a brand new character? Again.

Same reason people still like Star Wars. They played/saw it very young so it just stuck with them. ME is honestly shit, the worldbuilding is shit, the character design is shit, the presentation is shit, but if you ask lots of people it’s fucking amazing and has some of the best shit ever in it. Never mind literally everyone wears what appears to be the same 3 latex outfits or full body cyborg armor 24/7, or how the crew of the Normandy apparently hotswap sleeper racks and have 0 personal affects anywhere in the ship they live on or how literally all worldbuilding is told through dialogue exclusively because everything in the environment is copy pasted generic hologram textures slapped over grey walls, it’s apparently the Star Trek of video games.

>ME2 could've actually spent an entire game building up the Reapers instead wasting one of three games in a trilogy with a random not!geth faction and their Contra 3 boss and could've NOT FUCKING KILLED SHEPARD and that would've made ME3 worse
"No!"

>people forgave Liara for cucking you in ME2

>it was a trainwreck
>YEAH ONLY IN THE LAST FIVE MINUTES

it doesn't matter WHEN the 50 car pileup happens on the trip, the only thing that matters is it fucking happens.

My hopium is so dried up that here they are, trying to hype me up with the Geth and possibly with Legion - literally all I care about with Mass Effect - and I can't give a single shit.

>it doesn't matter when, just that it happens
Then point out when everything goes to shit for the first time in the franchise: Shepard's death, the Normandy blowing up, and everything Cerberus

You have either not lately played all three back to back, or touched on Legendary edition. The downgrade from 2-to-3 is not just immediate, it is JARRING with how immediate it is.

>Animation is distinctly worse, hell the graphics look worse if you've played Legendary which makes the other 2 games look better than 3 somehow
>UI is immediately scuffed with how much it looks like a mobile game as giant boxes flash up on screen whenever you collect so much as a lore tidbit
>Writing takes a nosedive, and nobody is out here defending starchild or the awful attempt at giving Shepard PTSD in the form of some random possibly-not-real infant being killed in the first 10 minutes then haunting you for the next 20 hours
>Did you read the novel between playing Game 2 and Game 3? I hope so, because we're not going to explain shit about who these new characters are or what's been going on like we did between 1 and 2; read up on the material, it's a matter of respect
>Combat is a flat improvement while everything that made it an RPG is removed entirely
>Most players start the game at level 35 from save import which makes the entire game a breeze, since it had to be designed to be beaten by a new player as much as a returning one
>Character writing assassinated left right and center
>Everything has been dumbed down to its most basic

And yes, you don't get to handwave the ending either. This argument of 'the game is fine if you just ignore the entire ending' is already a copout, but is ten times worse in a series which marketed itself on the premise of 'your choices matter and will carry on from game to game'. Ending a series where the central theme is consequences of actions with a climax that doesn't change based on your previous actions isn't something you brush off as 'a shame, just ignore it', it's a fundamental failure to deliver on the marketed promise people bought into the series for. It's bad. It's not OK.

ME3 doesn't build up the Reapers and ME1 does enough of that, that is actually damaging to both the Reapers, and the franchise.

Shepard will somehow come back to live and ruin whatever good memories of the trilogy you might have had left, if any.

>shepard's death
kino
>normandy blowing up
kino
>cerberus
was kino until they turned into LE EVIL BAD GUYS WHO ATTACK EVERYONE IN THE GALAXY WITH INFINITE RESOURCES AT ONCE in 3.

None of these are actually harming the franchise, though. Mass Effect comes out on top, out of ME2.

>There will never be a game where the crew is Guarrus, Liara, Tali, Wrex, Mordin, and James
