As a random person on the internet who knows you only as an aquaintance on the BSN, I am seriously concerned for your health and sanity.

*incredibly obvious stage whisper* It's just an act. But don't tell anyone.

To be fair its quite hilarious even though it seems rather out of character lol.

I'm worried this book is gonna be too different from Drew Karpyshyn's style which I really like, thus, making the book unenjoyable for me. I'm not big on books so I don't know if this new author can do it justice (I know he did good books before)

@didymos: ...please tell me that's a joke. Please for the sake of my ability to breathe.

It's straight-up legit, yo. That's how they do on Omega, homegirl.

I can't breathe!

Sad thing is most of those fails could've been avoided by using the ME wiki.

Most is studied and disputed before they put it up there. But a lot of it too is just people connecting the dots. I would take everything by a grain of salt.

Would've been better than whatever source he used for his fail information.

...The cereal thing will help with Kai Leng's inevitable DILP syndrome though.

Did you even read my previous post. ( I can understand with such a long post.)I wasn't comparing the two.

I don't know anymore. This book was supposed to be awesome. I was supposed to like it, read every page of it and praise it to the skies for its awesomeness! Why, why can't I do that?!

</drama>

I'm getting what you're saying, don't get me wrong, but it's just so... inappropriate. Not to say completely silly. I mean, no one in their right mind will actually take Kai Leng seriously when they play Mass Effect 3 after they read that part.

I'd expect comic relief from Nick, as he was the trouble maker, but not Kai Leng! And even that's giving him too much credit. I'm guessing he seriously thought that was badass enough to have him do: Seeing an assassin "on the edge", with hellbent will to eat his prey's cereal!

Just for this Shep better be able to troll TIM by stealing one of his cigarettes.

Maybe this is why Mac uses Wiki more then their own ME bible.

I think your taking this into too much detail.

The level thing really doesn't bother me. Besides you don't have to treat it as canon

I don't know what game the VI I said that but it could have changed. It it can't be considerod truely public their more than likely lowly guest or workers.

Kai Leng and cereal. I do the samething if I was hungry.

Don't really want to continue but once again I think your taking this too much in to detail and too personally.

FYI I'm not trying to start something.

Dude.... are you even reading these other posters' comments? 

We're not talking about a few major or minor screwups here and there.... we are talking about dozens upon dozens upon dozens of colossual utter f***-ups to the lore, canon, and characterizations that have been established in all of the previous Mass Effect media: the video games, the comics, the previous novels, etc etc. Deitz manages to f*** up even the most basics of damn ME lore as if his entire knowlege of the ME universe was from hearing someone describe the game's plot from someone else who previously watched his friend play a few missions of Mass Effect 1. <_<

Question, this is the first of the series that isn't written by Drew, correct? I wonder why.. is this a DECEPTION?

[Zhuinden]

Well, I dislike being the harbinger of bad press but here's a bit of excrept which made me see the problems:

So T’Loak read, and read, until she was couldn’t
read anymore. Then she took a nap on the couch that
took up most of one wall. Two hours later she got up
and read again. Meals came and were removed. Messages
went unanswered. All so T’Loak could accomplish
one thing— and that was to identify Liselle’s killer.
Finally, after more than twenty hours of unrelenting
work T’Loak found what she’d been looking for.

Seriously?

(I figured I'd paste in the one sentence scene between Anderson and Kahlee, but I thought that would probably break a few rules or something.)


Truly, the greatest deception about this book is trying to sell it as something worthwhile, but you can just see how half-assed it is. The moment I saw the word "deencrypt" I knew there was something wrong.

Nah the Wiki's probably just more convienent and easily accessible than the bible. 

Still whatever Dietz was smoking I want some.

Well I also know the Dietz's novel was approved by two senior Bioware employees explicitly hired to avoid canon mistakes etc. So don't go throwing rocks at his house just yet.

Really?

Who were they? I have more rocks!

[CROAT_56]

these senior bioware employees did they work on swtor or something not me related at all. i kinda feel bad for dietz tbh

OK, there's a quarian @#$%ing settlement on Omega. And all Gillian has to do is walk up, say she's from the Idenna, and they can instantly verify that...somehow. I guess the census data for ships that are on an extended mission away from the Migrant Fleet are on the extranet or something. And also....this:

"My name is Gillian Nar Idenna [Gillian child of the ship Idenna]."

Yes, it's in square brackets this time. For variety, I suppose.

Now, after seeing that, I'm REALLY hoping that when she finally finds TIM, she says "My name is Gillian Nar Idenna [Gillian child of the ship Idenna]. You killed my father. Prepare to die!"
