Mass Effect Legendary Edition is such an enormous missed opportunity

  A "cash grab" is a minimum effort activity to get people to repurchase something that they already own.  For instance I don't remember how many different copies I have of the Star Wars OT.  I have the originals on VHS, I have a remastered SW where clouds on Bespin can be seen where there were once drab hallways...  the list goes on for a while.  Basically I kept up with the different video formats and editions as they came out.  (No matter how you cut it though, "Han shot first" is my stance.)  My point is each edition of the Trilogy was remastered, and those remasters changed the original content with each iteration.  Eventually the original was changed so much that Han didn't shoot first.   Enough about StarWars, but we can admit that it made George Lucas a LOT of money - because Lucasfilm put in the effort and people bought it.

  Remasters can change the content, and there are differing levels of effort that can be put into said remasters.  You want to put enough effort into your remaster to get people to buy it.  Too little effort is where I draw the line and declare something a "cash grab".  BioWare can make changes to the games.  They have that ability, even though they may not want to put in the effort.  That's why the whole deal about losing the source code for Pinnacle Station is a (sort of) big deal, because they can't polish it up.  Personally, I like Pinnacle Station and still play it on every single playthrough.  I like getting Geth Pulse Rifle X with 3 upgrade slots, and I ALWAYS equip one on Tali'Zorah as an inside joke.  It makes meeting her on Freedom's Progress that much more special.
   
  If I owned BioWare, I would make the Mass Effect Legendary Edition truly legendary.  I would change those endings, for absolutely sure.  I'd change the Termi-Reaper in ME2 into something a little less awful and lore breaking.  In all honesty I'd remaster ME1 and 2 and remake ME3 entirely.  Come to think of it, it would be smarter to remake ME3 first, and to make the L.E. (remaster) after that. 

  People used to love Mass Effect, and by extension BioWare.  ME3 changed all of that.  BioWare changed, too.  Andromeda and Anthem are proof enough.  This franchise could be re-ignited, just like Malkua's song said that it could.  The question is, can BioWare do it?

I’d also say this: depending on the aumont of connections between the original trilogy and NME, the LE could make a lot of sense, in regards of connecting the new players to the new game.

I think they have the budget it's more I think they don't want to spend those resources because the yknow tha tspending so much would be a gamble because it's likely those that have mad epeac ewithth eendings or at leas tlike them won' tb einterested in a remqake tha tmuc hof a game that in truthis no ttha tol dand doesn't look like it's aged  tha tbadly anyway. It's onl ybeen ME1 that's needed the overhaul and thus the only one that's really getting it. TBHth eo0nly reason I' m mildly interestede in the LE is for the galactic readiness and not having to play around with the N7HQ app any longer. Other than that tbh I could happily leave it as I'm quite happy continuing to play with the originals. I onl yplayed aroun dwithth eapp eso I didn' t have to mess about doing multiplayer

Does that work on Origin?
