Okay, may be I missed it...

But frankly, has anyone got any questions answered from this novel or any secretly brewed revelations, for that matter?


I always wondered ever since Ascension if Kai Leng had a fondness for cereal...


apparently he's willing to break the law for some. Meanwhile Anderson's probably thinking to himself, "wtf? Why the crap am I always out of cereal?"


Anderson's gonna give Shepard an assignment in ME3- You have to pick him up some cereal.


That'll be marked in "secondary objective" as "Secret N6 assignment"...

This is where we find this has all been an elaborate ruse to avoid the cost of hiring people to fact check and, instead, have the community do it for them~!


And only now do they notice the gaping flaw in this masterfully executed plan.

THE BOOK IS OUT ALREADY.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing. ;)

Also, can the passage of Kai Leng eating Anderson's cereal be edited into the OP? Just because people keep asking for it and to act as an excerpt for the book, if you will. Just a small taste for what to expect from the book. A good thing to hype people up with.
Just add milk.



This!! I have heard about this passage second-hand, but would really like to read it myself without having to go through pages and pages of this..."book" before finding it. 'Tis a good idea I think *is already laughing* Image IPB

then thats where bioware hits us with our first hard decision. give the cereal to the krogans who need a full stomach to fight the reaper war, or deliver it to cerberus?

the reapercusions will never be the same..

This is almost(almost) as bad as Dragon Ball evolution.


At least that movie had the defence of being a standalone continuity - Deception hasn't even got that =/

Maybe that's it - Dietz thought he was creating a reboot

Can we please keep the "ME3 Bashing" out of this thread and instead focus on the thing that we know with absolutely 100% certainty is total garbage? <_<


My friend, if you have been paying any attention at all, this should be a screaming, flashing preview at what ME3 will be like.

Why? Because Dietz wrote Mass Effect 3? Are you high?

With Bioware, nowadays, anything can happen... I am sincerely concerned about the fate of ME3, specially after reading this horrific novel. A studio with such a reputation and a franchise so robust - did we ever had nightmare that at some point we'll be tortured with a so-called CANON novel like this? You will never know...

Let's hope for the best BUT prepare for the worst (though I am chewing my nails to bleed whether my decission for pre-ordering the Digital Delex Edition was a renegade or a paragon choice...)

Nothing happened, the characters achieved nothing, did nothing (aside from all the deaths) and sadly will become nothing.


It's pretty discouraging, actually. 

The last three books are now a bit... redundant.

And Kahlee's line on seeing it all: "Why you rotten bastard, I ought to..." take the cake for being the most inappropriate thing, given the circumstances, that I think I've ever read in a written piece of literature.


Well, a close second has to be this, which occurs right after Anderson and Kahlee just got finished looking at a bunch of corpses in the C-Sec morgue to make sure none of them were Nick:

Kahlee smiled as they strolled out into the artificial sunlight. “A naughty admiral. I like it. Come on,” she said. “I’m in the mood for an asari stir-fry tonight.”

He grinned. “And for dessert?”

That,” Kahlee said, “is for me to know and for you to find out.”



:blink:

WHAAAT?!?!

I feel you on this one bro... why should I be blincly excited about a product when absolutely everything related to it since the last installment is mediocre at best? Starting with a bad DLC after a series of good ones, followed by really bad comics (with Invasion somewhat fixing the image), ugly action figures, and now this novel?

I'm concerned that if they are allowing a monkey run their IP when writing a novel, they might as well allow monkeys to do it while making the game.

Effectively a huge waste of time.

That is until Bioware disavows the novel.
