mandatory references and old aged characters, of course I'd rather not. Either give characters a real return, or don't touch them. I especially don't care to see them old. I've seen way too much harm being done to characters, once they've turned old.

This is how I feel. If they are going to go with new characters, I want the game to be able to stand on it's own and not use the old cast for nostalgia points. Either bring back Shep and crew, or don't.

That's a nice sentiment. I think it's obvious that they worked pretty hard on MELE, and there's clearly a lot of passion behind the remasters. I left a review on Metacritic because apparently it's being review bombed (Imagine my shock, that's all people do these days for big releases). It's not perfect by any means, but ME:A felt uninspired, and regardless of the beautiful graphics and great combat, the game lacked what the trilogy had. If they can get back to that, no matter if the story they want to tell will be a continuation of Shephard's legacy, the lore and world of ME can continue to grow. The team's positive interaction with the fans is a factor in all of this. It's not being review bombed on metacritic. That's not to say it doesn't have a low user score, it does, but if you look at the number of reviews one version has 400 ratings, another version has 250 ratings. Basically there's about one or two hundred disgruntled people giving a low score. That's not a review bombing, it's called hardly anybody who liked the game is getting off their youtube tab and positively rating it on metacritic. And that's a shame.

DA:I had one of the best character creation in RPG ever. From the art to the level of detail, it was incredible. The only thing missing was a color wheel for hair, and better hairstyles.
I loved DA:I's combat.
Their casting director is fantastic. Especially the protagonists. She doesn't get enough credit for those. I mean, Shepard? Hawke? Inqy? iconic. Outside of ME:A, I don't think I ever had a problem with a character's voice.
Their romance system is probably the longest and most cinematic out of most RPG's out there. With the exception of ME:A again (unless you're straight). I love how there's always the main plot and then the romance subplot, almost like a movie or a book.
I'm in love with the Bioware formula. I wish they'd stick to it instead of trying to reinvent the wheel every time. I mean, Bob Dylan of our generation? please. Stick to what you know. There's so many genres they never touched; Urban fantasy, historic, post apocalyptic, horror, superheroes, fairy / mermaid tales, Cyberpunk, cottagecore, steampunk etc. Just imagine them under the Bioware formula. I mean, the characters? the romance? the world? the environment? I'm already sold. But no. They'll keep wasting time trying to develop ME:A for 5 years, and DA4 / Anthem for 7. If a project takes this long, something clearly isn't working. Shove it to the side and focus on something else. Please. For the love of god.
They made Dorian. I'm not willing to elaborate.
Beautiful environments. Except Kirkwall. We're not ready to talk about it yet.
Choices carry over from one game to another so it's continued storytelling.
The soundtrack. C'mon now. Have you listened to Origins? Trespasser? ME:A? Incredible.
MELE is amazing.

The sell figures of MELE might be better than Bioware thought it was going to be. This is good, because it will motivate them to work even harder and with more joy(caused by in mind of how much loved ME is) on the next Mass Effect. No, it has just as much potential to do the opposite. EA's track record is "Build hype, cash in on hype." To briefly dive into this the 'build hype' part is creating a beautiful piece of art that brings in the player-base (aka customers). The 'cash in on hype' part, is when they know customers love the product and will buy the product regardless, so then they spend less time, use less resources and push out an unfinished POS, laughing all the way to the bank. They've done this time and time again. And re-realising the Legendary Edition could be just phase 1 of this model. Now not only have they built up Mass Effect hype again, but instead of paying a Marketing team to initiate it, they instead spent minimal resources rebuilding the trilogy and then made money off creating the hype instead of spending it. As far as business goes, it's genius. So far by watching those playthrough videos last days on youtoube it seems that they have taken their lesson from MEA and worked really hard to avoid releasing it with alot of bugs/glitches 🙂 Wait, wait, wait.. You do realize that in terms of bugs/glitches, re-releasing an already developed game with better textures and minor game improvements is a far-cry from releasing a brand new game? And that they hired a 3rd party studio to help with this anyway? So I think WE ALL SHOULD WRITE loveletters to the Bioware team of how much we appreciate what they done with MELE and also talk about what we thought was the positive sides of MEA. I think writing love letters to BioWare for this is as extreme as those who wrote death threats to them after the ME3 ending fiasco. However, there were actual positives to ME:A from MET. So happy to talk about that. If we feed them with positive things they will work better and put much more love and effort into the new upcoming Mass Effect game 🙂 This is utter nonsense, the most important thing for them to put love and effort into this game is if their overlord "Reaperesque" publishers give them enough fucking time to write and develop it properly this time around. Remember that the team have read a lot of negative things about them recently, that the old Bioware team is gone and not many of the old ones left.... That does more harm than good..... More utter nonsense, in fact a lot of the old team are returning for the new Mass Effect. However, I'm always going to be quite critical while Mac Walters is a lead writer. And that's in spite of his outstanding character writing. Give them a chance and also tell them that you believe in what they doing, that is going to give them hope and comfort! I really look forward to the next game in the series! Did you read this on a fridge magnet or bumper sticker or something? How can you even "Believe in what they are doing"? I believe they are creating a Mass Effect game, beyond that I don't presume to know enough to believe anymore. This game has just as much potential to be a failure or a success. In other words, I could see them nailing it and making a majority of people happy, or I could see them turning it into a "kids" game, by decorating the narrative with a superfluous amount of memes, pop-culture references and light-hearted scenes where the story doesn't even take itself seriously, in order to appeal to "a new generation" of Mass Effect fans. However, the idea that we should write these people love letters because they re-released an already established game using minimal resources, sold it for $90 and got a tonne of money doing it, is actually deluded.

She's been working with BioWare since Neverwinter Nights, but only joined full time in 2008. She really does deserve more credit for helping bring Bioware's characters to life. She somehow manages to discover minor actors/actresses who aren't quite as successful or known in tv/movies and turn them into video game VO legends. I mean there are a few notable names like Kate Mulgrew, Tim Curry, Yvonne Strahovski, Freddie Prinze Jr. and Martin Sheen (forgive me if I left out anyone) but most are not as well known even now. Which is just a shame, because they are all brilliant.

Considering the pretty positive feedback MELE has gotten a remaster of DAO is something EA and Bioware need to seriously consider. It would likely do well. The game was well liked, and with the positive feedback ME remaster is getting, they might consider doing a remaster. I would also like to see DA2 remastered. Sarcastic Hawke in 4k would be a delight to see!

The woman casting for Overwatch is also pretty great.

Bioware - I absolutely now think you should save yourself the trouble of writing a ton of great dialogue (as you did in ME:A) and just revert to ME1's template. Write 4 different clues to the same line. When investigating - just write 4 different questions that basically ask the same thing over and over and over again and ask those same questions of virtually every random NPC is the game. Make all the sides quests as disconnected to the main story as possible and put them on different planets with only 4 other things to discover on each map. Oh, and be sure to add in several "do we just shoot this NPC or utter something semi-civil to him before we shoot him" type of decisions so your fan base can feel like "badasses" - but make sure you don't have any negative consequences for those actions because they ultimately want a "bad = good" conclusion.
That is, by the standards of many of the players here, how you will make a great game again... not for me mind you (I loved the writing in both ME3 and ME:A)... but for the other people here who make a big play about being fans and then take every opportunity to curse you here and everywhere else on the internet.

Dear BioWare,
I like it when you write long, interesting dialogue sequences that actually make me think about the implications of the topic at hand. That makes them special and memorable, giving insights into both the character I'm talking to and the protagonist I'm playing. As an example, the discussion of the genophage with Mordin on Tuchanka in ME2 was a great thing. I'm sure it took effort to write, but let me tell you, it was absolutely worth it.
On the other hand, please don't do something like the super short discussion about religion with Suvi in MEA again. You basically condensed it to a single yes-or-no question and then told me in the codex what a spirited debate about religion Ryder had with Suvi. I know, it's hard to write anything about religion without offending all the cultists out there, but I'll let you in on a secret - Twitter "opinions" are quite irrelevant. If the Mordin conversation about the genophage had been like the religious "debate" with Suvi, there would have been a single yes-or-no question about Shepard being in favour of the genophage or not, followed by a Codex entry about the great ethical debate concerning the genophage s/he had with Professor Solus. Please write and implement the actual conversation, you've been so good at that in the past! Moments of interesting, captivating writing are what make your games special.
DAI's face customizer was great! Just could you make it happen in neutral lighting ("standard daylight", so to say) please? I want to determine how my character looks under normal circumstances, not in a Uranium mine.

Dear Bioware:
Baldur's Gate 2, KOTOR, and Dragon Age: Origins are some of the best games you ever made. Maybe some of the best CRPGs ever made period.
Granted the combat mechanics are very different from Mass Effect, but here's hoping the story structure, dialogue, RPG mechanics are done in the same spirit, updated to account for more advanced technology, of course.

It's not being review bombed on metacritic. That's not to say it doesn't have a low user score, it does, but if you look at the number of reviews one version has 400 ratings, another version has 250 ratings. Basically there's about one or two hundred disgruntled people giving a low score. That's not a review bombing, it's called hardly anybody who liked the game is getting off their youtube tab and positively rating it on metacritic. And that's a shame. Lol after reading some of these "bad" reviews, it seems most of these people are upset because there are no Brazilian subtitles. It got bombed by Russian speakers for the same reason, if you can't read those You only get English version with English subs you can't understand, or the super cringe poor quality Russian dub that's basically unplayable. In the originals you could play English VA's with decent subs. No idea why that was cut. Hope it's still accessible by mods (but consoles would be SOL)

BioWare, you have introduced more bugs with the LE than you have fixed.
If this is your Legendary Effort, there is no chance I will ever buy another game you develop. My burnt hand has healed, but I remember.
Instead of a full price MEA purchase, you got $5 from me. From KotOR through DAI, I purchased every game full-price and bought every DLC.
I skipped Anthem without a seconds hesitation, and welp that sure seems like a good decision now.
MELE I figured I'd buy down the road, for the MELE ME1 experience. After seeing videos and what they didn't fix, it is such an easy hard pass.
You lied to us about the ME3 endings. You lied to us about DAI being developed "on PC for PC." - something I will never forget, since it was such an obvious lie on release day. You lied to us about what MEA would be, and now you have lied making a "Legendary Edition" that is not legendary at all (mods make ME1 look the same, ME2&3LE are downgrades from modder's work), and is not fixed - instead, characters appearances are butchered, almost all the old bugs exist and you have introduced many more.
In summary, I want you to do better. If you can you should. If you can't, I wish EA would finally just shut you down so that we must find new things.
Love,
Teh Artisan

... You lied to us about the ME3 endings. You lied to us about DAI being developed "on PC for PC." - something I will never forget, since it was such an obvious lie on release day. You lied to us about what MEA would be, and now you have lied making a "Legendary Edition" that is not legendary at all (mods make ME1 look the same, ME2&3LE are downgrades from modder's work), and is not fixed - instead, characters appearances are butchered, almost all the old bugs exist and you have introduced many more. ... Yeah... I think to still be a BioWare fan after all these years, you must either be very oblivious or very tolerant towards bullshit, because they've served us so much of it over the years. Not just the big portions you mentioned, all the little ones add up too. And some people even eat that up and defend it. Remember the Dragon Age codex stating that magic can not be used for any sort of travel, including teleportation? In Dragon Age 2, enemy mages often teleported away, when you tried to engage them in melee especially. Answer from BioWare: "they are not teleporting, they are slowing down time and then run really really fast". The teaser sheet in the Dragon Age Origins box was never meant to announce the release date of Dragon Age 2, no no, it was always the launch date of their silly Facebook game. "Dragon Age 2 was not being rushed". Heh. "The Andromeda Initiative comes in peace". At least for the first ten minutes, then we're shooting aliens and most of our research is about better weapons and armour. Jeez, would it have hurt to just state "vehicle combat is outside the scope of this game"? Ahem. Yeah, BioWare, just tell us what's going on. We find out sooner or later anyway. And if we don't, there's people like this Jamie Shouter or whatever his name is.

If they can slow down time that much, why don't they shove a dagger through your throat, when you're completely unable to defend yourself?
