I get the impression writers deliberately avoid word "Reapers" and I'm totally fine with. I'd guess they leave after Rho's destruction, but before actual invasion, to maximize obscure references for people, which played original trilogy. MEA did not avoid the word 'Reapers' at all, or at least not 'successfully'. It was simply not a Reaper story. I don't know what you mean by this, but I meant no reapers in AI background and reasons. |

I think it's much more likely that we'll deal with the quarian ark in a future dlc too, rather than MEA2. From the wiki, seems the quarian ark already arrived in Andromeda by the end of the game and might be under attack from the kett. I bet it's the reapers instead in some fashion. The warning to stay away sounds fishy...if it's kett they would want help. If it's reapers...tHey would want to be avoided. |

MEA did not avoid the word 'Reapers' at all, or at least not 'successfully'. It was simply not a Reaper story. I don't know what you mean by this, but I meant no reapers in AI background and reasons. That is incorrect too. In fact the timing of the Ai leaving the Milky Way is almost certainly influenced by the Reapers. It just is not the overt primary reason (and it never needed to be). The word 'Reaper' was used by the writers and it counts. However, it was apparently judged as more appropriate to not *focus* on that because that isn't the story they wanted to tell here. DLC? Future game? We can't know ether way imo, other than the sentiments that the Reaper story is over (this is problematic because they could say Hawke's story is over with DA2 even if the character of Hawke isn't done his story.. my head hurts). Sorry, I do get what you mean. However, MEA has acted not just as a new fresh start, but it seems the writers decided to use it as a trilogy primer too. All over the place, references and codexes explaining in briefer terms what was going on in the MEU in the trilogy. I honestly would not rule out a DLC that more-or-less covers much of the Reaper War parts of ME3, even if now from a distant and different angle. |

I dont really want it to be Reapers. I'm sort of Reapered out. It also makes sort of a plot hole of sorts.... unless I suppose if they pressed the red button and we now have a Free Range Reaper who escaped destruction with Free will... But I think it will more likely be the Geth. They are tied to the Quarians in history. And the information we have about Andromeda comes from the Geth. They even say they have no idea why the Geth were studying Andromeda. So to me it would make sense if they were interested in Andromeda, they would find a way to come if they could. You know, I think geth is a good shout. That's the only reason I can think of that they'd send a warning not an s.o.s. aside from reapers, and I highly doubt Bioware will go down that road. Plus they know a lot of people want geth. Actually, it's a really good shout. |

Quarian Ark definitely arrived in Andromeda and one DLC, hopefully the first, will be about saving it. And I can't be happier about that. There were so many name drops for Quarians and Geth. Even Jaal mentions the conflict and has sympathy for Quarians and says Angara are like them. How can you be happy that they are using a fan-favourite race to sell more DLC? IMHO that's like dumping the whole Quarian story (one of the few parts of ME3 that I actually liked!) from the ME3 and offering it as DLC  Especially since they aren't offering a season pass (so you have to buy all that DLC at full price), so they are milking us even more! Note: I will probably get that DLC (so yeah: I am a part of the "problem" and maybe even a hypocrite, but I can and will still complain about it!), but I am NOT happy about it! I hope they didn't pull a "From Ashes" (or other similar crap) where they actually cut this from the game (that's even worse than just making something a lot of people are interested in DLC!) This is just shitty policy and it's not even necessary - look at fucking CD-Projetct RED, they have offered a lot of free DLC (sure they have offered large payed DLCs but those offered many many hours of story, too - say "Blood and Wine" is easily longer than say "Lair of the Shadow Broker" (even if you combine it with another Mass Effect DLC!)) greetings LAX |
