Looks like the Turian Councilor won't be in denial:

@CaseyDHudson Will the Turian Councilor attempt to "dismiss the claims" of the Reapers in ME3? Will we have a new renegade interrupt for it?

.@RichErrington It will be hard to "dismiss the claim" of Reapers in #ME3 when you can see them out your window...

If people are really expecting Mass Effect to be like one of those classic RPGs, they're barking up the wrong tree.

Me? I can't care less.

I play the game for the character developments and the story, not for pointless stats and inventory systems.

You've got alot of problem in your statements here...

1.  There's no such thing as a "classic RPG".  An RPG is an RPG,  there's no "New and improved!" version.  ME2 isn't an RPG,  it's a Shooter.  It fails all of the fundamental basics of an RPG,  the character is completely undefined,  the character has no inherent skill.  Oblivion is an adventure game.  Slapping the acronym on a box and screaming "We're the new RPG!" doesn't make it so,  if it plays like a Shooter or an Adventure game then that's what it is.

2.  If the "Stats and inventory are pointless",  then your designer has failed.  Your designer was unable to develop a balanced functional system.  If a stat or inventory item goes in,  then it should serve some defined purpose within the game.  Bethseda is the poster child for designers who can't design,  they include all kinds of stats and then make the entire game player skill dependent making the stats irrelevant.  They include a ton of completely useless inventory items,  like forks and spoons.  Yet they can't manage to even make their "Radiant AI!" remember you just saved the town 30 seconds ago.

I *really* don't understand why people try to make RPG = story,  Adventure games are about story,  RPG's are a great deal more complicated.  Adventure games are centered around telling you a story and letting you use your skills,  RPGs are about your character's skills,  and his progression as he pursues some goal.

I kinda agree. ME2 still has a couple of RPG elements, but they're quite limited indeed. People here seem to mistake what an RPG actually is, often for something quite similar to the adventure game. Although even if I think Oblivion has loads of problems, I'd still consider it an RPG.

Nothing has beaten KOTOR1 or ME1 in terms of an RPG game for me. ME2 felt far too much of a shooty game and a heck of a lot less RPG than i would have liked.

But the best thing with ME1 & KOTOR1 is the seamless loading almost all the time! . Good times.

Can someone ask Casey if the any of your LI's family, friends, contacts or anyone else for that matter like media/ crew mates/ squad members will react to your relationship with your LI in ME3?

The reason for this is because i want to see auntie Raan's reaction to me...i mean Shepard and Tali being together if they ever tell her.

Also it would be funny to see Jack's reaction if a certain news reporter expressed disgust at a jack/shep relationship - not that i would choose Jack over Tali.

When asked about no new LIs Casey responds:

"Don't believe everything you read in print (or online for that matter)."

Good advice. I wonder what they think of some of the less professional ME3 articles out there.

Nothing against you guys personally, but this is the twitter thread, and Javier already posted saying to knock it off with this rpg stuff.

I won't preorder ME3 till he does...I really don't want to go the EADM route for ME3 (like I did for ME1 & ME2)  so hopefully this will be good.

"Gameplay was smooth..but did u guys find an alterative to slide then vault over cover? kinda broke the flow of combat.."

"Fixed. Climbing over vs. taking cover are on seperate buttons in #ME3 . Lots of other tweaks will be shown at #E3"

I asked him a Q about LI's (not the one you mentioned through) but he havent answered it and i don't expect him to do it aswell.

[antique_nova]

Mine is less spoilorific i think though.

[antique_nova]

Another question is, have they been made aware of the fact that sometimes when you choose a new weapon in the middle of a firefight you pop out of cover? Because i found that super annoying.

[javierabegazo]

This is NOT a thread to debate what is or is not an RPG. Please refrain from such discussion.

The game doesnt to that. Mine only did that when the controller stick was not centering itself properly
