I'm so surprised that it took one bad game to scrap this IP, narrative loose ends and all. The first game felt like such a tentpole for the Xbox, and Sony seemed like it worked pretty hard to get the trilogy on its machines.

Did Drew Karpyshyn ever release his version of a series bible, or talk about it?

I finally deleted Andromeda from my hard drive, admitting that I wasn't going to play through the game a second time just to be Space David Bowie and have sex with the nerd with lesbian hair. It's a shame.

lmao they're not going to throw good money after bad when andromeda flopped and anthem burned out 2 months into its intended 10 year lifecycle and remake mass effect 1, they're going to slap some "high resolution" textures in there, bundle it up with the other 3, and re-release it on modern consoles to turn a quick buck

Ilos ruled and BioWare did a great job with the atmosphere of that sequence. Talking to Vigil was great.

By Mass Effect 2 the limited degree of reactivity was so obvious. I should have started downgrading my expectations then.

that's a helluva asterisks on successful by every measure seeing as cereberus hilariously failed at almost everything it did period, save lazarus, and tim winds up as an indoctrinated liability with a bullet in his head without particularly advancing humanity unless there's book stuff i'm not aware of

but i guess he did get a lot of innocent people killed along with all those legions of cereberus employees that died along the way
