What are your too ***SPICY*** to handle hot takes of the trilogy?

The Thorian was a missed opportunity and it's a shame you have to kill it outright.

Not only is one of the very few 'alien' aliens in the setting, but you would think something that can remove the effects of Reaper indoctrination would be second only to the Crucible in terms of importance.

So what if the Thorian has a penchant for mind control. So do the Leviathans and that didn't stop Shepard from inviting them to join the war.

Liara states that she is sorry for what happened with Williams but goes around to call her shortsighted when for two years she kept the information of Shepard being dead and what she did for them or even better, BEFORE Horizon but it appears Williams (and Kaidan) didn't contact her but relied on Anderson who was also working on an antidote against the Collectors sting and didn't told our Shepard when we met him before Horizon which, combined with Mordin counter measures would have helped more Alliance Forces after Horizon but to be real all  governments wanted to use Shepard as a their toy in ME2 behind his back and in ME3 he just goes along 100% with the same government who incarcerated him after doing their dirty work (Collectors, Shadow Broker is now someone they can pin a name and the Bahak Relay) and that should have been also explored with the Virmire Survivor. 

The email we get from Williams if they are the LI tells players she is having a lot of conflicting thoughts about everything (kind of explains her drunk scene in ME3 as in the letter she says: "I don't know what is real anymore.") and should have been followed by another communication in ME2 after the Collectors Base was destroyed. What I am pissed is how Bioware decided to use the Virmire Survivor as a plot conflict without a need in ME3 to introduce NEW players that Shepard worked for The Illusive Man: 

Bioware could have easily introduce an email that the VS writes to you depending on the Collectors Base fate (unless both Anderson and Hackett decided to keep that information from the Virmire Survivor so their new poster soldier isn't hampered by Shepard Cerberus connections regardless of how the player manages it) but like I said: They wanted to use the VS as a conduit against Shepard. When Williams said that she feared that Cerberus implanted a mind chip I wanted to have the option to tell her how close of the truth she got as Miranda almost certainly did so only to be stopped by TIM and as her initial accusation that the Shepard felt he owned Cerberus well that is actually another reasonable assumption as Tesla Vasir wanted to kill both Shepard and Liara on behalf of the Shadow Broker because of all the intel he provided her for years so yes, having a character who questions your allegiances IS refreshing but players SHOULD  have had more opportunities to discuss that problem in ME2 and ME3 but noooo, the game needs shipping.  

Playing through the citadel DLC for the first time. This DLC has been hyped by numerous sites and people on the forums as the best DLC content across the 3 games.

So far I haven't enjoyed it that much honestly. I'm finding it quite cheesy and some cases downright cringy. They turned one of my favourite characters (Wrex) into a bit of a joke and the whole mood of the DLC hasn't really fit with the rest of the game so it feels out of place.

I understand this is more of a fanservice dlc but its kind of silly that my Shepard in one moment is mentally at breaking point because of the people dying from the reaper invasion but at the same time is cracking silly jokes and getting sassy with his clone.

The Omega and the Leviathan DLC's are much better imo

I get that, like I said its designed to be fanservice so I appreciate that its supposed to be light-hearted content. But they could have still done fan service that didn't completely take away from the overall atmosphere the game was trying to portray.

I mean some if the characters don't even behave like they normally do for example were in a firefight with multiple enemies and I'm hearing wise cracks after wise crack from every squadmate (even Cortex who doesn't even get into the front line much is making jokes while bullets are flying around him).

Secondly to ur point about it being free, I would say this isn't the case at all. For me personally, buying the Legendary edition was because of the content I handt bought/played before (there was dlc in each of the games that I never played previosuly) so that was an incentive to purchase the trilogy along with the obvious graphical improvements to ME1.

The Citadel DLC I was looking forward to because I have heard the same thing from both game journalists and people who love the trilogy in general. That this was by far the best DLC and so far I just can't agree...

When I first played the series, I thought the Citadel DLC was great. However, when revisiting the MELE, my thoughts are more in line with yours. It came off really cheesy and out of place. It is also another part of the story where squadmates put Shepard on a pedestal yet again which I find annoying.

I also feel there is no good time to do it either. By the time you get most of the squad, too much serious stuff is happening to just drop everything for this goofy Saturday morning cartoon stuff. Some of the additional scenes are worthwhile like with Miranda, Jack, and Thane. The party can also feel goofy too. But it is the only other place you can spend more time with Miranda and Jack if they are your romance.

Oh and I wish Maya had more of a redemption arc. Maybe even a romance. Bioware keeps touting diversity but pretty much all human females that are romances for male Shepard are Caucasian.

So I read online the best time to do it is straight after Horizon but like you said serious stuff is happening at this point Mordin, Thane and Legion have all died in my playthrough and I just save Miranda and her sister, its hard going from that to to the Citadel DLC. That's why I intentionally left the Leviathan DLC till last, thats my favourite one, adds to the story and doesnt take away from the serious atmosphere the game is trying to portray (that one imo is a great dlc)  

Indeed, I want to see their reasoning as to why for not fixing issues (bugs and glitches)
