Yeah, I'm thinking 2025-ish as well. A couple of weeks back, one of the insiders mentioned they're not even at the storyboarding stage yet. Without the Montreal studio, there's only so much they can handle at once. And right now that's primarily DA, with a side order of Anthem. Curious to check out the source. Not doubting you, just want to add to my list of sources to check out. IIRC, it was Liana (Game Informer)

I dont think we'll see anything Dragon Age related. If anything, you'll probably see something from DICE and their next Battlefield game.

Unlikely. I mean, Mike Gamble probably is on the new ME with a small team since 2017, but his reinforcements to really get things going couldn't join him until Anthem was given to BioWare Austin - and that was just a year ago, right? So I think they might have confused the new game with the legendary edition. IMO it is far more likely that BioWare could show a bit how the remastered trilogy looks in December than anything out of the new game. Of course I would be more interested in seeing something from ME next, but I don't expect it. I'd rather find out more about the remaster at this point. Is it little more than a facelift, or are more substantial changes being made? I'm not holding my breath for the latter, but that's what it would take for me to buy it as a PC player. The only other thing Bioware could do to win me over is release tools to encourage the modding community to shift over from the OT.
Shifting over to unreal engine 4 would be a dream come true from a modding perspective due to no longer needing to worry about the 32 bit 3.5gb memory limit, but again, it doesn't seem likely to happen based on what Bioware has said so far.

Yeah I doubrt it's anything moe rthan a fresh coat of paint because it seems that's all the NFS Hot Pursui ton eis looking a it. I'm only gettin gthe Hot Pursuit one mysel fbecause I never got the original. It's likely tbh that if you alread yhave the origina lyo uma yas well stick with it as it's moer for the new consoles than us PC players.

Of course I would be more interested in seeing something from ME next, but I don't expect it. I agree, going by BioWare's past actions as well I doubt we would see anything for a new Mass Effect game until after Dragon Age "4" ships. I would also guess that the majority of work that is being done on a new Mass Effect game isn't anything close to what would be shown to public since it would be at furthest along at a point where it is all concept work without any to really show. Now they might go the route of a "developer diary", but I really don't want that again and frankly I rather see and hear nothing about the game then another set of developers talking about how much Mass Effect means to them while showing concept drawings. You could be right and it would be demonstrating the remaster, but I am not sure if EA would spend time showing that at an awards showing instead of one of their other properties that they want to hype up.
I think they will hopefully have a teaser announcing the title (if nothing else) with a vague release date (who know something like spring/summer/fall/holiday and the year) probably before DA4 ships. But yeah more behind the scenes and developer diary kind of stuff. IMHO right now they need to focus of DA4.

I think right now they don't even know where or when it will be. They probably have a list something like this:
1. Nothing immediately after ME3 because we broke the universe. 2. Nothing in Andromeda because it did shitty because we broke the MW universe. 3. Probably nothing pre ME because people will probably be bitter about us breaking the universe knowing what is to come. 4. Probably nothing from Shepard's timeline because again, we broke the universe and they might dislike knowing that is the ultimate future creating a 'nothing I do matters' conundrum. 5. Probably nothing in any other galaxy. See 2. 6. New/Parallel Universe? Alternate reality? One where the reapers never existed? Where we can legitimately pretend that Casey didn't break the universe? Would that still piss off people because we broke the original ME universe?
Then they take the rest of the day off. Rinse and repeat.

I agree with the general sentiment that they don't know what they will do. I doubt they wrote off Andromeda entirely though. Ryder maybe, but I suspect they are flipping between 3ish ideas. Like possibly, Andromeda with a new protagonist, after ME3 a decent chunk of time, side story in one of the settings.

Of course I would be more interested in seeing something from ME next, but I don't expect it. He hasn't worked on it until 2019, and respectively Preston Watamaniuk and Parrish Ley, Game Director and Creative Director on the new game, did not come on until January 2020. Mike Gamble had to hit the ground running on Anthem as co-lead Producer as soon as MEA crashlanded, and only after its initial launch was he able to shift gears. So presumably, the project started its ideation phase in early 2019, and started pre-production at the start of this year.
Since the announcement, browsing LinkedIn helps give an impression of what's been going on with this project. The "veterans" they're referring to are indeed Parrish Ley and Preston. Preston was senior creative lead on Anthem, and he was Lead Designer on the Trilogy. Parrish was lead animator for several games including ME2 and ME3, as well as Anthem. He actually left BioWare for Aaryn Flynn's new studio after Anthem shipped, but he came back at the start of this year to work with the Mass Effect team.

5. Probably nothing in any other galaxy. See 2. So I guess that means we won't be going to the Sombrero galaxy? *tosses tequila out the window* For real, though, they've fucked themselves over with the setting. Anything short of time travel, or retconning ME3 out, won't save the franchise. All the problems you listed are true.

I could be remembering all this wrong, but wasn't Mike Gamble also sent into mid-development of Andromeda to fill a role that was made vacant? So he has been stuck fighting fires he didn't create for the last two BioWare releases? Personally I am hoping the new outside leadership for the studio is going to break bad habits BioWare has had since before Mass Effect 1. For I couldn't see how they couldn't get beyond them when that has been a way everyone promoted from within has been working for years.

It seemed to resemble the concept art shown about the next ME, and the last phrase didn't seem to be about the Legendary edition.

Maybe we will get a small teaser, akin to The Dread Wolf Rises from couple of years ago with Dragon Age. In fact I went to check, that teaser was released on 2018 Game Awards! I called it!

Yeah, i didn't paid attention when i saw it at the beginning but after i saw the comments and rewatched it again, it looks both the milky way and andromeda.
