It's unclear whether it's live action or animated.

Wasn't it Neflix? Did the deal fall out or something? Are they making multiple ME projects at the same time, by different studios? I find the latter difficult to believe.

Henry Cavill teased a ME project a while back, so I'm assuming it's live-action.
And between Geoff Keighley tweeting this ME story, and Gamble's "Hey, what's up yall?" tweet, I have a feeling we might see an official announcement at the Game Awards.

Guess this means the rumored Dragon Age show might be true as well. I really don’t know how I feel about this. I just pray they stay far away from the games. I’m already dreading them canonizing Shephard gender.

I'm especially curious how they would adapt Mass Effect 2. In a video game story, you can get away with certain things that won't fly on TV, like having a large cast of characters that are not plot essential. In ME2 the only plot essential characters are Mordin and either Miranda or Jacob. I'm already getting cynical really fast, but I wouldn't be surprised if they cut characters like Thane and Samara, because the story doesn't need them, and the effects are expensive.

Could be nice. Watched the Expanse to fill the ME void, while waiting and waiting for a new game, and now we might be able to fill the Expanse void - once that show finishes this winter season - with a ME series. Wouldn't be surprised if they go the prequel route for a live action series. Discovery of the Relay system, first contact (war) and then the early years in the Galactic community.

Just saw it. This is cool. I'll believe this is really happening when the pilot episode is out (we had enough ME movie project in development hell already) but man, an ME series from Amazon would be grand. They did super well with The Expanse (external studio and all, I know, but at least they gave them the money to do it right) so I'd be happy if ME came to Amazon. We'll see. Gonna make a post in the ME section, not to derail this here, but now I have another reason to hope that Wot and LotR go well for them and they'll keep up their commitment in the scifi/fantasy genre.
As for the content, I have said it a bunch of times, I'd opt for a prequel series, fairly unrelated to the games (with maybe just a few cameos of people who were active at the time here and there).

Some relevant links on this reddit thread. The second link in the thread is, I guess, the more interesting one, as it seems some of the ME VA cast have already been contacted. Haven't watched it yet. Probably won't. Let me know.

What if this potential show is tied to the upcoming Mass Effect game?

That could be good or bad. Though I tend to lean on bad because most times when this kind of trans media stuff it just makes people who might be fan of the game but not the show and vice versa feel like that have to play or watch something that they don't like to get the plot of the media that they do like. Marvel has been the only one to make it work but only because they tend focus on movies and TV shows and for the most part even they're not as inter-connected as fans think they are.

I can't say that I have high expectations. What I do expect is for it to look like utter shit if it's live action. Whoever makes this for Amazon is never going to get the aliens to mesh well, not to mention any biotic action that might happen. At the very least, stuff like Arcane and Castlevania at least prove that video game adaptations don't have to be cursed.

If they try to adapt the games, I already know I'm going to hate it. No shade to Henry Cavill, but a Sheploo-wannabe romancing Liara? No fucking thank you.
I hope it's a prequel series. It could be a good way to introduce non-gamers to the universe if they are discovering Citadel space along with humanity. They could even let Anderson be one of the main human characters, plus there would be no risk of stomping all over players' choices in the games.

My guess it's gonna be femShep romancing Liara. Because girl power all the way these days! And since I love Liara I'm fine with it.
That said, I'll probably hate it too. Same reason I struggled to get into The Witcher. Once I'm used to a pixel face any real human playing them looks wrong. Imposters.
I'm also wondering just how they wanna make this look good. The Witcher S1 looked plenty cheesy and that setting is nothing compared to all the aliens and tech in Mass Effect. They'd need a huuuuge budget.
I'm highly skeptical. I never wanted a Witcher TV show and I never wanted a Mass Effect movie or TV show. So my reaction is a groan so far. I'll watch it if it really happens. But I'll probably cringe through the whole thing.
