Victor Lucas @ victor_Lucas In honor of the recent 1year anniversary of #MassEffectLegendaryEdition, that time when @ mark_Meer and @jhaletweets agreed it’s time for Commander Shepard to return! (And maybe in a cool new way) Hint @bioware…
BioWare @bioware #EndangeredSpeciesDay is a great opportunity to celebrate saving these magnificent creatures from extinction by curing the genophage! Not every species’ story ends this way, so let’s do our best to protect the many facets of life that share our planet. #MassEffect #
baun baundiesel I know you're out of the loop now but do you think rumors that the next Mass Effect full production can't/won't start until after DA4 releases seem reasonable?
Mark Darrah @biomarkdarrah Almost definitely true. For both to be in production at the same time would require EA to let them hire a bunch of people. Which is unlikely to say the least
Look All I know is that I shared some stuff And then I shared stuff that Comrade Mark shared and it went viral (for us) And I'm pretty happy with the results.
I guess the stuff that he shared is for when the teaser trailer premiered? And the art that mark meer shared, it went viral so I'm not sure about that... Maybe shepard is gonna make an appearance which i doubt. I think it's more possible is if they appear in recordings, and as a vi, but anythings possible.
I was just given a friendly heads-up that after June 12, EA will be removing game extras from their servers such as wallpapers, soundtracks, and art books for a number of games, including (but not limited to):
Anthem Dragon Age Origins Dragon Age 2 Dragon Age Inquisition Jade Empire Special Edition Mass Effect 2 Mass Effect 3 Mass Effect Andromeda
I don't know if they will be available elsewhere after that date, but I think it's a good idea to d/l them and save them off somewhere (if you haven't already).

BioWare Gear Store @biowaregear Complete your gaming rig with the limited edition Mass Effect Puck, with a magnetic back and 3D emblem for the N7 Training Program.
From description: "... this Mass Effect Puck features a powerful magnetic back that attaches it directly to your PU case or any other metallic surface."
Is it a good idea to attach a magnet to any PC? I would not let any magnetic sources come near a PC, laptop - so use it on the sub-zero.
DeMarle was in charge of the narrative and writing in all recent Deus Ex titles, including Mankind Divided, Human Revolution, and mobile spin-offs Deus Ex: Go and Deus Ex: The Fall.
She also created the story and led the writing team for 2021’s Guardians of the Galaxy, which won the Game Award for Best Narrative.
The narrative designer shared the BioWare news on her LinkedIn page on Friday, but did not specify any specific projects. It’s possible she could be involved in either the upcoming Dragon Age Dreadwolf or Mass Effect 4.
Speaking to GI.biz last summer, DeMarle discussed her view on the relationship between gameplay and narrative in game development.
“For many, many years working in this industry, I’ve known that story is often subservient to gameplay,” DeMarle said. “But if I understand the game and what is the feeling I’m trying to evoke for players, then I can understand that gameplay is trying to do it this way, and story is here to support that or bring it forward. How can the things I write help to emphasize the things the gameplay needs, etc.?
“As long as you always know the game you’re trying to make and understand why, then it just comes down to constant communication between narrative and gameplay, and constantly looking and understanding it from that point of view.”
- I'm guessing she'll be on the next ME, but I don't for sure just yet.

Michael Gamble @gamblemike Oh, hey! I'm really excited to let you know that Mary DeMarle will be joining the Mass Effect team as Senior Narrative Director. You've seen her work in Guardians of the Galaxy & Deus Ex (to name a few!). She's amazing.

"As expressed by Gary McKay, BioWare™ General Manager, “It’s always sad to see someone you appreciate go, but I wish Charles all the best in his next adventure. He leaves SWTOR in excellent hands with an incredible team that will carry forward our vision for the game. We are committed to SWTOR’s future as we continue to work on the next Dragon Age and Mass Effect.”"

Uh, out of curiosity -
is this Mass Effect related? Was Charles involved in ME? I don't see that in the blog post, but admittedly skimmed it.
