Then I doubt they'd make any big announcement under those conditions. Still, I hope they'll prove me wrong. True. But the lack of a mention of DLC at this point might in itself be an admission that there isn't any. Yes. Since they used this same comiccon to hint DLC in the past.

True. But the lack of a mention of DLC at this point might in itself be an admission that there isn't any. The big guys of Mass Effect Andromeda are turning up to San Diego Comic-Con for something Mass Effect themed. If we hear nothing today, then that is pretty much the last place we will. There it will be a panel with Dark Horse so i doubt it will be DLC related but instead about both runining comic series Bioware have with them.

Nah, it's bad writing, Ryder is immediately treated like the second coming by the general populous and given massive power and responsibility with zero oversight on their first day. The whole Pathfinder concept is a giant plot hole made even more jarring by the inexperience and attitude of the Ryder character. Even Shepard considered being given command of the Normandy really out of left field, the idea that they would send 'that' crew out unaccompanied in the Tempest is just incredulous. Ryder's youth isn't the issue, loads of games, TV series and movies work just fine with young protagonists when they handle them in a more convincing manner. Bad... in your opinion. An opinion that you perceive as fact. My point still stands as you feed into it. Appreciation of writing is 100% SUBJECTIVE. For example, people rave over HZD, but I laughed at how shite I thought the writing and characters were, but that is an opinion, not fact and I don't claim it to be a fact. The Writing in that game did nothing for me, but it obviously did for others. You don't seem to fully grasp the concept of a "plot hole" either as the Pathfinder concept is thought out and explains Ryder's position is given his inexperience. People looked up to him because he is portrayed by the Nexus as their last best hope, and in desperate times, that is a perfectly sound plot point. I can pick out all of the same types of nitpicks in the OT, but I don't because I'm not one of those types of people. All I gleam from your post is more: "I don't subjectively like the writing, so therefore it objectively sucks" and purposefully leaving out key details in order to bolster your narrative. You don't like ME:A's writing? So be it. Just don't be dishonest about it. HZD has great lore but the story about the tribes honestly wasn't all that interesting. I love finding holotapes and videos talking about what happened leading up to world ending but I couldn't give to craps about tribe "x" hating tribe "y" MEA writing was just meh to me, it's not bad but it's not good either. I liked the story for what it was but anything I found interesting was left unfinished and I never really bounded with the crew or felt that the villian was a good one.

It's also at the most world famous comic con, so its the most likely to be where they would make a reveal, even if it is at the end of the Dark Horse panel.

But the lack of a mention of DLC at this point might in itself be an admission that there isn't any. Judging from the people who are on the panel I don't think that this is the group that would announce DLC. I suspect that would come from Gamble or someone of similar ilk. But, as I've said, hope springs eternal. Maybe we'll be surprised.

The entirety of the writing, lore, characters, and the situation in HZD made my chuckle internally, and not in a good way. I couldn't take it seriously and lost interest. Don't get me wrong, I know loads of peeps loved it and I'm not trying to bash the game, but I am using it as an example as to how subjective writing is. EDIT: Completely fucked the formatting...

If they don't announce DLC today or at least hint at it I doubt MEA will get any. What are they even talking about at this point about the game if the one thing about it that's on everyone mind is if the game will have DLC or not?

It's a book signing. Mac Walters, Mike Gamble, and Fabrice Condominas will be there to talk and sell books.

What are they even talking about at this point about the game if the one thing about it that's on everyone mind is if the game will have DLC or not? I think plenty of people would like to hear from the devs about the topic of the panel—how they brought the world, creatures, and characters of the game to life. It's almost as if that subject was the subject of the panel long before some garbage clickbait hack spouted bullcrap so trolls would feel good about harassing the fans and devs.

Witcher is very immature infact.

EDIT: completed quote and fucked the formatting... I think there is a thing as bad writing people just confused it with writing they don't like. Like how people think Ryder is a poorly written character when he/she isn't they just a character they don't like Ryder as a character (in some cases compared to Shepard). Or how people thought Viv was badly written in DAI. I hate Viv like everyone else but she isn't a badly written character she is a good written character but I personally don't like the character

Or is this a book signing for the Mass Effect Andromeda novels?
