IF we get another Mass Effect game....

So you just posted your opinion of it being shitty in comparison to something you won't reveal.

There is no small enough form of measurement to measure how little of a fuck I give about metacritic ratings in general.

Also, begging the question is fallacious.

Even though ME1 ismy least favoirte of the 3, I still play it. Though its only the main missions. So I don't mind taking a few hours to complete a playthrough. ME2 is great. Being able to recruit enough to get through the omega 4 relay or recruit all. The suicide mission has many different scenarios for who to survive and who dies depending on what the player decides to do. ME3 has ems. Its amazing how little I can do and still get the breath scene. Or how much damage I can do and still get the breath scene. excellent. I haven't completed a trilogy run in few months since I been playing a lot of DAI lately.

I have said several times in the past, there should have been mandatory deaths in ME2 during the suicide mission.

You get to kill everybody and I get to save everybody. I like that we have those choices. 

Jacob can take the vents

Ironically my own personal pipedream is have a Mass Effect Flight Sim, where you start off as new Alliance recruit a few months before ME3, run some basic anti-pirate operations, then get sucked into the Reaper War. Have the finale set during the battle of Earth.

I don't think so. If you did everything right, everyone survived. If you missed something, all bets were off. Mandatory deaths would have introduced a random element or, which would have been worse, been tied to a certain role in the mission or to certain characters. Which would have done away with replayability, since you already knew who's snuffing it..

Yep. Its great that I can recruit 12 squadmates and then have them all die on the suicide mission. excellent. As far as saving everyone. Most of my ME2 playthroughs have at least one death.

BioWare already hitched its wagon to Andromeda. To do another soft reboot, or to completely ignore MEA, would be disingenuous and likely cause more harm than good. Regardless of MEA's divisive reception, it laid a foundation for a new Mass Effect experience, and BioWare should continue along that path.

I didn't expect to hear anything related to Mass Effect for at least five years, but my views have changed since Aaryn Flynn has stepped down and Casey Hudson is taking over as GM of BioWare. As I'm sure many of you know, Casey Hudson is the mastermind behind Mass Effect. I can't see him abandoning his own creation.

What I expect to happen is for BioWare to prioritize Anthem and then to ship DA4. Once those games are out in the wild, I can almost guarantee you Casey will make it a priority to revitalize Mass Effect, and he will likely take an active role in its creation. Nobody cares about Mass Effect more than he does, and I'm glad to see he's back at BioWare.

Just make Drew Karpyshyn the lead writer on MEA2, and we'll really be cooking with steam. If anything, this reevaluation of the franchise may end up actually being an advantage, rather than having the situation of BioWare's "B Team" handling their arguably most popular franchise. I'd say the future of Mass Effect may actually be a lot brighter than many realize.
