NME is still in pre-production and that's really the only new update we got from this year's N7 blog. BioWare could post more later, like last year we got Geth crater wallpaper a few hours after the blog was posted( which was also light on any new info).

The good old thread's back in business. Am I ever glad to see it. Feels like I'm back in the days where I eagerly awaited ME3.  |

The name of the download file for the video is: SA_Intercept_SatheriumSystem_Dock314.mov.crdownload
Systems Alliance Intercept from the Satherium System Dock 314.
Only thing that comes up for Satherium when you Google it is that it is an extinct genus of otters that lived in North America during the Pliocene and Pleistocene
I also feel like the audio in the video has to have some secret with it. I put the file into Movie Maker and played it at different speeds. The cracking sounds more like radio static at the slower speeds but that is all I got from it. Would have no idea how one would analyze audio files further though.

Geth and Liara partnership?

First of all, countless thank you's for all the years keeping the news coming.
Seriously your Mass Effect News twitter account and the BSN twitter thread here are my main source for Mass Effect news, along with Mass Effect Reddit.
You are obviously free to go about your business as you please, but I ask you to reconsider the chosen service in the future.
Maybe ask some other folks in the community too (modders, long time fans, maybe even on the multiple platforms and services)
the Instagram platform IMO isn't a good match for what you share and provide - mostly text/quotes and every now and then an image or clip.
Full of Ads/Reels and terrible algorithms and hate. It's run quite frankly by one of the worst companies on this planet and good luck finding anything after a while.
Mastodon is the most similar service to Twitter - without ads, without algorithms, chronologically listed and it has the additional benefit of working on mobile apps (iOS, Android), as well as desktops (Windows, MacOS, Linux) and quite frankly any device with a web-browser, including an ancient awesome thing called RSS feeds from the good old days of the internet before platform lock-in.
www.reddit.com/r/masseffect/ works also on all platforms, can be completely ad-free if you pay or use a special app (Apollo on iOS for example) and also has a good way of finding old posts (up votes, bookmarks and all that)

*snipping to reduce wall of text on thread's page*
We are happy to hear you liked our work. It's what kept us to keep on doing this work despite our busy lives, well that and our love for the Mass Effect.
While we did pick Instagram, it was more of best of bad options for us. Instagram only partially provides the niche Twitter provides. As for your suggestion, we did looked into Mastodon and we have some issues with site functionality, specifically it is impossible to search for particular word or phrase and that appears to be by design. We would reconsider joining if BioWare creates account there as well, it's why we bothered with Instagram.
We are toying with idea to get on YouTube, but it's too early to go Mass Effect specific and we don't know can we do something for Dragon Age in mean time. Although we are big fans, we don't have the same passion for DA, plus we need to do lot of catching up for pre-production stuff for DAD. Plus to find the time to write a script for video and then find someone to voice it, since all of us running the account are Europeans. While we do speak English fluently, we do have thick accents so we'll be difficult to listen.
As for reddit, well we did try since back with Mass Effect 3. It did not work out at all, we had serious issues with subreddit mods. When we try to do again for MELE, we got the cold shoulder and we could tell nothing changed since a decade ago.
We're still looking into other options. We honestly rushed Instagram move because Twitter may go down in a matter of days, judging from reports of crucial staff leaving. The World Cup is this Sunday, so the site will most likely not be able to handle the traffic as even skeleton crew is gone.
