I'm watching someone play ME3 for the first time, and I really do feel that a lot of the negativity surrounding the game was so overblown. I still have issues with the ending, and some other parts (some of them a bit nit-picky), but overall it really is a good game. It's a shame to see the vitriol still kinda lingers and that new players get a negative view from the game even before they get a chance to see for themselves. The one I'm watching right now is currently loving the game (and the series as a whole of course). On topic, my guess for a release is not before 2028. I want to say 2027, but I doubt anyone is actually doing anything with the game at the moment, and likely won't even start until DAD is out. I’m more worried about Andromeda to be honest.

ME3's ending still makes me angry when I think about it.

there is plenty of good and bad within ME3. Cerberus Phantoms is what I consider to be my Worthy Opponent.

The best worthy opponent is Samantha. She kicked Shepard's a** playing chess. In ME4, Shepard will be seen reading How to win at chess for dummies to get revenge against Traynor.

The "good" from ME3 is limited to ME3MP; which is, and remains, a masterclass.
Everything else is, sadly, a masterclass on lost opportunity.

I entirely disagree with the 'everything else' statement. While I love the entire trilogy, I think the weakest was 1 due to its Crafting system (very tedious and clunky) and while 2 arguably had the best Combat, the slugfest of Planet Scanning was its down point....But 3 I feel was the best combat, story, character development and combat IMO.
I have heard that the MP in 3 is incredible but I cant speak to that as I have no XP

there is plenty of good and bad within ME3. Cerberus Phantoms is what I consider to be my Worthy Opponent. I liked Phantoms because they felt like they actually reflected the kind of enhancements I'd feel Reaper technology would rapidly provide someone. The troopers were just more Star Wars Stormtroopers and I wish something else was written to support their existence. I didn't believe Cerberus processing and outfitting so many indoc followers this quickly, but I could believe there being many agents 'recruited' anyway.

That is why themikefest calls them the Keystone cops. if i was going to do a con current mass effect games, The Player Character would have go thru Cerberus Phantom process for many reasons. Of course there have bad ending for indoctrination. I am more curious on the material support within ME3 Cerberus to provide their teams. Indoctrination can convert people. Cerberus did lose a lot of money in rebuilding Shepard and supplying his crew with Me2. In ME: Retribution, Cerberus have several loses in material and personal.

The one I'm watching right now is currently loving the game (and the series as a whole of course). Agreed. I just got my boyfriend to play for the first time. He had heard it was an amazing experience, but put it off because of what he heard about the endings. He just finished the Omega DLC and is about to do the Citadel DLC before finishing the game with the mission to retake Earth. He's really enjoyed the ambiance and missions, but says the gameplay could use some work. But in any event, watching him play all I can think about is "damn, why can't games be this good anymore??" Ultimately, he says he is very glad he is playing the game despite the naysayers. He does have ADHD, and unfortunately he struggles with some parts of ME like running around talking to various NPCs on the Citadel and making sure he talks to the squaddies on the Normandy between missions to further dialogue. He actually forgot to activate Legion in ME2 before the Suicide Mission, and then forgot some missions on Rannoch in ME3 before waking the reaper so the whole Quarian/Geth debacle is a bit lost on him. Super devastating if you ask me. Lol.

other than the 2023 N7 day poster/teaser has this graphic shown up in prior games/comics? It has a lot of Star Trek - Romulan Bird of Prey vibes
