Well that was over abruptly.

And a lot of those cutscenes felt unfinished. Like the cheering crowds, who were completely silent, and Aria warping all over the place. Really glitchy.

Combat was decent, if a bit easy for the most part. Only real trouble I got was from all the grenades being thrown around.

The Adjutants were unsettling, but completely hopeless when it came to actual fighting. The Rampart Mechs were decent enough, but I was expecting Dragoons honestly.

No Collectors at all, despite mention of a lab 'beyond the Omega 4 Relay' - which must almost certainly be a Collector test facility of some kind.

Worst thing of all though. The mission felt completely isolated from the rest of the game. Not a single mention of it after the mission ends, no crew ask you about it, no debriefing from Hackett, nothing.

And those secrets Omega contains, that Aria talks about so much? Not even hinted at.

So eh. Last time I buy DLC without some seriously glowing recommendations. It wasn't bad, just felt a bit pointless ultimately.

I don't believe the Omega-4 relay was even shown, and I'm certain it wasn't even mentioned.


It was mentioned as the source for the burning shields technology. I believe it's Aria who says they found it beyond the Omega 4 Relay. I immediately tried to remember if something like this was in the CB in ME2 but got nothing.

I didnt get the whole "I have issues with some of your crew" thing Aria said. She didnt seem to have any problem with Tali and Garrus last game. Why couldnt I bring them?

Btw anyone noticed in the last scene the Turian dragging a Cerby trooper by his foot flailing his arms around?
The jokes are just great.

I wonder if Shepard even bothered telling her crew about it.

"Where were you today, Shepard?"
"Nowhere."

Oh, and LOL at Mass Effect Wiki for this article.

http://masseffect.wi...ki/Rampart_Mech

Tactics
These mechs are extremely similar to the Dragoons found in Multiplayer, and should be treated as such. Note that tech abilities like Overload will have a more profound effect since they are synthetic.


They are so little like Dragoons its not even funny. They behave more like Geth Hunters, only a little tougher and with no cloaking.

Bad writing- and that's a fact!

It's like they spawn, activate their shield, walk closer, die from bluesplosion.

The tunnels and the bunker, I should think.

I can't speak for everyone but it is by far not worth 15 bucks. Leviathan DLC was waaaaaaaaay better- it had no dissapointment like I experienced in Omega.

Honestly?  Not worth $15.  Maybe half that.

And its 90% action, 9% story that has no impact on the main story, and 1% interesting datapads and video logs.

If you say talking about Omega which is next to not IT related is more on topic then discussing the merits of IT...
No need to call something off topic if you don't agree with it.

Seems a complete waste considering the Adjutants will probably never be mentioned or seen again... Felt like half a DLC, really. Probably the best combat in ME3 but mass effect has never been about its bland combat. Next DLC better me pretty amazing to keep me interested...

I've heard people say the Batarian preacher says some possibly IT related stuff. Anyone got quotes from him? I didnt bother sticking around and listening to a Batarian talk. Figured he'd just tell me how much I sucked like he did last time.

The only thing I ultimately got from Omega is reinforcement that Control is a bad thing.

Even if you have a vastly superior force (Cerberus and the fleet it magically aquired, Collector technology repurposed for containment, etc) trying to control an essentially lawless population will result in rebellion and unrest.

Reapply that notion to the Reapers being commanded by ReaperShep trying to maintain control over the chaos of Organic life, and you can see a potential problem there. It doesn't matter how valid you think your reasons for controlling a population is, if you take away their freedom they will fight back. Which would result in a huge deathtoll.

Of course, some might say that Control isn't about controlling Organics but the Reapers. But then listen to what ReaperShep says, its clear they are going to be used to 'protect' people and 'maintain order'.

No, we're discussing what we can take from Omega and apply to IT.  Stop being so anti towards everything, seriously.

This pointing out different aspects of the DLC circles around the idea of indoctrination theory in the Omega, which we unfortunately cannot find :P
