I never got the feeling that MEA was a "save the Galaxy"-Story... I always saw it as "We have to find a new home and there are some complications because we don't know what's going on here".

So, don't be like Mass Effect 2?

I didn't mean it like that, I meant it based on the character. Just somebody a little different than what we've already seen from virtually every Bioware game that I can even remember. They always delve into the typical "Save the world" type of a story.

Take Geralt from Witcher 3, he was a monster slayer but his games weren't purely about monster slaying. That's what I meant and besides, Bounty Hunter was just an example.


In what way is Mass Effect 2 even remotely similar to GoTG? GoTG was some silly comedy with a Sci Fi setting based in a Comic Book Universe, Mass Effect 2 was a pure Sci Fi game that unlike the first and third game, had a significantly more low key plot that felt more focused as well. A lot of people shit on the plot for "not really going anywhere" and being too much like filler but I think that's partly why it's widely regarded as the peak of the series (at least from what i've seen).

It's writing, tone and overall aesthetic was fantastic. It had a serious and almost brutal tone at times whilst still managing to throw in humor now and then without overdoing it.

I will take silly fun like Guardians of the Galaxy over 2deep4U pretentiousness like Mass Effect any day.

Given how popular the Citadel DLC was, I'm probably not unique in this sentiment either.

So what you're saying is that you don't want Mass Effect?

Its fans like you that cause developers to completely lose sight of what made their series great to begin with.

I guess Mass Effect isn't the series for you then

Mass Effect always juggled between seriousness and heaping spoonfuls of camp, even in ME1. 

Citadel was a apart of Mass Effect and what about the Shadow Broker was even remotely silly in the same vein as GoTG?

Guardians of the Galaxy is one of those Summer flicks that appeals to the lowest common denominator, keep that shit away from Mass Effect imo.



That's not what he said though. He said and I quote, "I will take silly fun like Guardians of the Galaxy over 2deep4U pretentiousness like Mass Effect any day.". He literally said that he didn't want Mass Effect Andromeda to be like Mass Effect
