Hopefully so! It's why I have not bought any of the subsequent ME3 DLC (Leviathan/Omega) even though I bought all of the ME2 DLC, because while the ME2 DLC progresses the story, the ME3 DLC it is going over old ground and changing nothing with regards to the outcome.

Where do Overlord, Kasumi or even LotSB progress the main story of ME2?

[Zered]

Yeah because Bioware has a history of listening to the fan 'vox populi'...

On another note:
It's a wonder people have still delusions after so much time. Shows how great the series were before me3.

Has the teaser arrived already?

Nah. They just teased a teaser, being the teases that they are.

LOTSB was originally a side-quest cut from the game (I suppose Liara´s LM that forced her to stay behind or something like that), and followed Liara´s character arc, so it was important. The other 2 were just sidequests, but the same can be said for most missions on ME2. Colonists are being turned into goo while you are psychoanalizing your crew after all. At least with the SB files Shep learnt of the Mars second data cache.

This from Chris Priestly in another thread is worth reposting here:

Ok, a few points here:
1 - Knock off the fighting and bickering or people will get banned and teh thread closed.
2 - BIOWARE has not hyped this up. A few staff have tweeted and FANS are making much of what is said. There is lots of speculation on what the next DLC will be, but we have not said anything and will not until the content is locked and thinsg are final. Any guesses based of leaks, tweets, conjecture, etc are GUESSES.
3 - Jennifer Hale works on projects besides Mass Effect. Take that with a grain of salt.
4 - We have said repeatedly that we will not be doing more endings for ME3 and that the Extended Cut is the "end of the endings". People refuse to believe me, which is fine as I have been known to not tell the whole story, but do not blame me because you choose not to believe. Temper your expectations.
5 - Details of what the upcoming DLC will be, content, price if any, date, etc will be made available when the ME team is ready.
6 - See #1.

For all we know, Hale may have been talking shop from VA to VA about the biz herself. She is a pro, after all. I know some people who follow her who have no interest in ME or sometimes gaming at all. She has a pretty amazing rep (and a well-deserved one at that ).

So basically, because ME3 had more of a main story, its DLCs are bad? Leviathan gives more depth to the main story of ME3, as does From Ashes and Omega follows Aria's character which is pretty much the same as in LotSB - content that was hinted at in the main game and highlights the respective characters.

Why you, no understand it's da 3ndin6!? 

Usually that's the reason why people dislike the ME3 dlc-s (even if their production value and quality is very good, I dare to say that they surpass most of the previous dlc-s in many ways). The core reason: they don't change the ending or they are not post-ending dlc-s (blue babies, LI saving Shep from rubble... yadda, yadda... the usual romance-centered stuff), even if it is evident that there would be no sense to make a post-ending dlc since the reapers are defeated by then, and by this the conflict of the whole trilogy is solved... not to mention the fact that Shepard is dead in all permutations of the ending but one. 

Believe me, if people (all or most) would love or be ok with the ending, they would eat, drink and breathe these dlc-s and praise them to the stars, as they do with the ME2 dlc-s now. It all comes down to emotions. 

It is pretty clear that the ME3 dlc-s are all connected to the main plot: the war against the reapers and the race against Cerberus' nefarious schemes and doings, while the only previous dlc-s which were somewhat connected to the main plot of the trilogy were Arrival (evidently) and LoTSB. I still can't see the fuss about this latter one though: IMO it's on the same level as Omega: an action heavy side-chapter which revolves around one character... ok, it had two boss-fights which I never find a very interesting gaming devise and a brief car-chase, which was cool... oh yeah and the SB ship which I spent time on only once, since there's nothing much to do there after one visit.  

Any new tweets?

Deadline complete, now a few days off, #NAMM , studio upgrade then finish #DoomsdayEP

I'm guessing it was the deadline for his ME3 DLC score, but can't be sure for certain. But this could mean it's nearing completion.

oh, mass effect forum. i've missed you so much....

and i know ppl need to temper expectations. but i'm just happy to see sum bit of joy here.even if only for awhile...

[ShaggyWolf]

@rapscallioness, The positive mood here is rather refreshing, isn't it?

I'm so curious about what this new DLC is going to be. It's kind of nice that we don't really have anything to go on. Leviathan got leaked with the EC, and Omega was always expected.

What is this thing gonna be?!?!

Well, that's more than nothing. He either finished working on ME3 dlc material, or something else, which means that he already had finished working on ME3 material earlier. Either way, it means that we are getting very close to the announcement of this mysterious dlc.

Chris Priestly denying is basically confirming.

You know, you're right.

I'd completely forgotten that Sascha and Cris are working on this DLC too.

Also, I wouldn't bet on a teaser this week:

@GambleMike So, ist this Teaser coming soon ? Like today or... this week ?

@SirLugash teasers take time to make

That tweet is for the next ME game and not ME3... and Chris just expressed his excitement about the plans he heard about it from the project's second leader (the No. 1 being Casey). So it's not hyping or anything (it's way too early for that)... it's only a more initiated fan's excitement about future stuff mixed with a little "evil" teasing. 

The only conclusion to us is, that they indeed started working on it and already have some ideas, probably good ideas. 

Here's the answer to that tweet:

If you did, I'd have to kill you, and I'm really not into that sort of things! But yes, there's exciting stuff going on in ME!

Hmmm... seems like we're going to get a trailer in the coming weeks. Mike was teasin us with Omega's trailer about two weeks prior to the trailer's relase. So the beginning of February is quite a safe assumprion, if it is indeed a trailer (but what else could it be, if it needs "takes time to make"?).

 A nice little interview (even if old) with Sam Hullick:

MSNBC caught up with me at PAX Prime last year and we talked about the music of Mass Effect 3. http://ow.ly/h2z15

They used screenshots as teasers for DLC.

well, we'll see. if it's dlc..2g limit and all..that does temper my expectations quite a bit.....

i think. i'm conflicted.

[Snypy]

I don't get it why some people are so excited about the next DLC... It won't be anything breathtaking, after all. Just relax and wait for it to come.
