Regardless of his contributions to the ending of ME3, it was still a great game as was ME2 and me1.
At this point we only have speculation but it seems to me that EA sacked Aaryn Flynn because of the failure that was MEA and brought back Kino Casey to save the mass Effect franchise and rework that steam piling of dog crap that is ANTHEM.
I considered my relationship with Bioware over after MEA and the ANTHEM reveal but a spark of hope has returned with Casey Hudson. I hope he makes Bioware great again.

Aaryn Flynn got sacked, this is a common occurance when the business end of things are declining and Bioware has been in a decline since DAI.

Aaron Flynn himself indicates that he had been considering leaving for some time prior to this announcement and finalized the decision when he learned that Casey had agreed to come back. That does not sound like a "sacking" to me. Bioware could not operate without a GM, so Aaryn (who had been wanting to leave for some time) instead stayed on until they could find a replacement for him. Rather than hire a brand new person, they opted to convince an oldtimer to return... and the way was cleared for Aaryn to leave and pursue other things (i.e. make the changes in his life he indicates in his announcement that he had been considering for some time.
Of course, Dutch, that won't stop you (and others here) spinning things to your heart's content based on pulling stuff straight out of your cloaca and starting numerous garbage threads about it. Carry on.

Carry on. That's fake news and you know it. I need to see your absolute proof of a sacking then... a leaked separation slip or internal memo from Bioware/EA or a formal news release that they fired Flynn. Sincerely doubt you can provide that though. You're saying he was sacked simply because you want to believe he was sacked... and you have a very nasty habit of presenting your speculations and exaggerations as fact and a very obvious bias (and that can be shown through a long and extensive pattern of your posts here).

Aaryn Flynn got sacked, this is a common occurance when the business end of things are declining and Bioware has been in a decline since DAI. Eh, Bioware has been on shaky ground for awhile now since late 2011 and is batting 2 for 4 when it comes to their games that were released . SWTOR didn't meet expectation. ME 3 was a decent enough game that was raked over the coals because of the ending . DAI did not cause the furor that ME 3 did, but did launch with a lot of bugs and people did complain about the open world design. And now we get to Andromeda which has the worst angst of of any of their games from fan and critic alike. Casey is going to have his hands full.

We'll see. I actually like MEA, just don't love it. I think EA might feel that Casey can turn things around but that remains to be seen.

Yes. Because Mass Effect was in large part his brainchild, his baby. If he can save it, he will.

1. The idea that Mass Effect needs saving is dubious at best.
2. The idea that an Andromedas failures are Flynns fault is ludicrous.
3. The idea that Hudson can save me is interesting given the community's opinion of him five years ago. And given both Flynn and Mac have been.involved on ME from the beginning.

Regardless of what you think about the game, if the stories about its development are true, it sounded like a failure in leadership. No direction, creative differences run amok, three years of wasted development with no clear plan at the end, which meant they had to develop the game in the last 18 months. Then the final product, which they've had to spend resources patching for the last four months. I figure someone would need to be held accountable for that.
Flynn may have been scapegoated.
Also, Hudson was the original director on Anthem IIRC, so they may have brought him back to take over that. Because they can't miss with Anthem. I guarantee his mind in on Anthem and not ME.
