Yes fall 2018 for now atleast, until it gets delayed. But thats besides the point. They have a lot more riding on Anthem at this point than Mass Effect. Also its a new IP so they have to get it right. They won't want to lose the positive buzz around it for a DLC of a controversial game that very few people are interested in buying at this point. I am not speaking for everyone or deriding the game but even if we are practical about it MEA hasn't sold more than previous mass effect games and there is already a perception out there that "MEA was sacrifised for Anthem". So at this point I think EA just wants to get as far away as possible from Mass Effect. Yea, but that's the sorta the point that's a whole other year possibly longer from now. At least try to win back the community with a decent dlc, there's certainly plenty of great ideas to expand upon that would be perfect for dlc. That would have been true if MEA had huge sales no. The problem with DLC is that no matter how good it is I doubt people will buy the main game for it.

Bioware will want to release something during the gap between ME:A and Anthem because it makes them appear more financially viable, it can win back support lost in the initial release, and they need to prove that they will support their games post-release otherwise Anthem will start off on shaky ground.

The problem with DLC is that no matter how good it is I doubt people will buy the main game for it. Sure those people are long gone by now, but it's the ones that feel cheated, bought the game day one, created all those memes and what not that they wanna win back. DLC isn't intended to try to lure new gamers in anyway. It's to keep the community alive and what not, plus I doubt doing at least one dlc isn't going to hurt EA's bottom line.

Exactly and they've got ground to make up because of what's happened with MEA as well. I'd say use that time to release a couple of DLC's to plug the gaps in the story and be done withit if they really do want shot of ME after that then fair enough but I'd say that's a minimum requirement. But in truth the game needs that otherwise it'll not just leave a bad taste in the people that didn't like the game it'll leave a bad taste in the mouths of people that did like and support it as well. Potentially influencing potential profits in a negative way on Anthem as people won't trust them to give us a complete story experience. Every single one of their games they've released has had one whether they've been good games or not MEA deserves the same treatment regardless of how people feel about it. I just hope they deliver. We'll find out in time.

By the way Mass Effect Discovery #2 was out yesterday. Read it, so far so good. What was it about? About Tiran Kandros going undercover on the AI searching for a quarian who had geth intel that the Initiative was looking for while a psychotic salarian biotic was doing the same.

I don't trust him. After looking at the sales for ME:A posted on reddit (I found a link in one of the big discussion threads about the dlc here), I'd be stunned if there won't be DLC. The game sold well enough to justify it.
