Yes, you read that right. Anthem is set in the ME Universe and is a prequel to the Original Trilogy.....now lemme explain. Most peeps wouldn't notice but a few might have heard of the Manswell Expedition (click for the full article) in ME2. It was a private spaceflight venture funded by Victor Manswell in 2075 to travel to one of the planets in the Alpha Centauri system, around 74 years before the discovery of Mass Relays. Anthem takes place in a single planet (as far as we know), both are a lost contact situation where a colony is separated from the rest of the galaxy. Plus the people of the colony have no idea about the races of the Milky Way. Too odd to be a coincidence? Just sharing my thoughts, will most likely turn out to be wrong but still an interesting theory... Read more about the Manswell Expedition. |

If there is nothing in Anthem that contradicts it, I will run with your backstory. |

It's an interesting idea but if Bio do go that way they could end up doing more harm than good given what happened with ME:A (rightly or wrongly)
Can you imagine what all the haters would do with that kind of fodder? It don't bare thinking about.

It don't bare thinking about. Better not pay heed to the haters, they'll hate on BioWare games regardless of it being great or average. It'd be a dream for all this to come true but even if it isn't, I'll take Anthem as what happened to the Manswell expedition as long as there are no contradictions... :contempt: |

I can't say.
But I think it is possible.
...
Something about the name; I always think of the word "encore" when I hear or read "anthem". Not sure why that correlation exists in my brain, but there you have it.

Could be the same planet they landed in after tricolor fiasco. Kind of looks familiar.  Player character could even be little Shepard descendant. |

The second i saw the first trailer i immediately joked that it took place on the planet Shepard's crew crashed on in the OG ME3 ending.

Ew, gross. No.  Anthem would be more of an insult to Mass Effect than Andromeda was. Besides, the tech and lore don't fit with the timeline or the ME universe. |

It would be a fun nod, unless the lore is so screwy that it means humans can make magic spells and whatnot.
