I really liked it. My only regret would be the length. I don't regret having paid 1200 points for it at all, but maybe with some more additional sidequests or talking, I'd be more convinced it was worth half more than Leviathan. Especially since there were so many locations ... that's a pity they didn't add a few more datapads here and there.

Other than that, I liked talking to Aria and Nyreen and how their different views and their shared past kept coming back. Also, I really liked the new elcor model. Feels like a taste of next gen... and makes me feel like they wouldn't have worked that much on the elcor model just for us to see one on Omega. New MP class ?unlikely (too bad) ... but I bet there will be more elcors in the next DLC.

I'd give it 6.5/10. I was really excited about it and it is really good DLC, but I was expecting something more. Adjutants are absolutely great enemy to fight with, something new and fresh. Conversations between Aria and Nyreen are also really good ann the whole story is interesting and full of action as it should be. What I didn't like is it was definitely too short for the price or the price is too high for the lenght. And I'm pretty disapointed that there was no boss fight. Couldn't there have been some kind of Adjutant queen or something like that? All in all it didn't meet my expectations but definetely wasn't bad.

Well perhaps I expected too much... I expected Omega to be a hub, and good music in the Afterlife. I got some good combat, but that's all. Leviathan was much better.
Seriously, after finishing the final fight I waited for the big party. Instead I just leave and get a chessboard.
Overall it was average... 5/10. I definitely expected more.

This was the first Mass Effect DLC, aside from Firewalker, that has honestly disappointed me. Perhaps I expected too much, but the expectations associated with the higher price tag didn't help either.

I thought Carrie Anne Moss didn't play the role of Aria nearly as well as she did in her earlier renditions. Part of this came in the writing; they tried to humanize her, which ruined her unique mystique. On the other hand, some of the line deliveries were... Well, some were fantastic. The others were... not.

The combat felt less fulfilling than Leviathan, which was a major upgrade from the main campaign. The much-hyped new enemies weren't nearly as big as the hype itself, and, at least in my first playthrough, a lot of the cinematics were bugged. Aria was teleporting all over the place in a couple scenes. And was there honestly not supposed to be mood-setting background music during her speeches to Omega, or was that a bug on my end as well?

Speaking of music, also rather forgettable. Nothing that sticks with you like the themes in LotSB and Overlord. Nyreen, despite being a turian female (finally!), was also one of the more forgettable side characters introduced through ME DLC. When the DLC ended, I didn't feel much sympathy for her like I should have. Honestly, I felt more attached to Petrovsky, which was... weird.

I guess I enjoyed it. Kind of. I dunno. Having to throw an "I guess" in there shows how much I enjoyed it, really.

Probably rate it a 8/10 It was good i loved returning to omega and the story was great. This is probably the best mass effect dlc after lair of the shadow broker. I do think omega was overpriced though.

I enjoyed it, but it didn't really stick with me. It was a nice way to pass a few hours and revisit ME3, but outside of that? Somewhat forgettable.

I think I expected more energy, I guess. It felt rather flat. Nyreen, despite being an interesting character, really didn't make that much of an impact on me. Petrovski never once seemed threatening. Even Aria, who I expected to be far more bombastic was played very level. Maybe that's what they were going for, but it just didn't grip me.

7/10, will play again, eventually.

Well I would say that it's a good DLC overall.
 worth the 1200 points?... idk.

There was some cool moments on the DLC, and the combat was cool.
The level design was pretty cool, in some places it did confused me, but I like that, I like when they give me a big open area... and they don't tell me exactly where to go..
however, I do have a minor issue with one point.
there is one objective that you have to do, where you have to kill the cerberus engineer...

Bioware need to stop that, don't tell me where he is... let me find him.... yeah, i know... the level that this happen
was pretty small, but really, I don't need a big giant square telling me ... "hey that's the engineer.. kill him"
I don't need that... (especially because of the fact that there was only ONE engineer.. so it's no like you need to
choose who to shoot)

The missions were also pretty cool too.
The storyline for the DLC was actually interesting, the characters were interesting, the dialogue as well... however, again, too many auto dialogues...
I hate that.


I was a little bit disappointed by the fact that the normandy don't get to join the battle.
and also, wasn't supposed to have some seth green lines of dialogue in the DLC? Because I didn't see.

Also, the cutscenes.. what's wrong with the guys that do the cutscene for this game?
because the entire game is plague with terrible cutscenes that glitches all the time and ruin the player experience,
and story line.

And some of the same problems that the game have, are also present on this DLC.
You know that moment where Aria gives her speech..
pretty awesome moment right? 
execpt by the fact that everytime that they change the angle for the camera Aria for some reason goes out of the camera and then comes back like if she was floating in the air.
That's huge problem with the entire game not only with the DLC, and aparently bioware still don't know how to fix it, because here we go it's present on the cutscenes for the DLC.

Also another problem is the ending... no not the ending for the game.. I'm talking about the ending of the DLC.
i'm not gonna give spoilers but the  moment where Shepard is leaving in the middle of the crowd (btw the
problems with the cutscene are also on this one since Shepard aparently have the ability to walk through
people bodies
)
but the major problem on this cutscene is that supposedly  the people are cheering.. "yay we won...." but there is no sound .... no music.. nothing.


overall I like the DLC, I had fun with it. :lol:

8.5
New temporary squadmates were fun, 2 new enemy types also alot of fun, some new weapon mods and guns are always good. Overall considering we are getting a story of retaking omega it is a good one, would have liked to dig deeper into Arias past though.

Only negative to this DLC it doesnt warrant a 1200point price tage, needs atleast another hour or 2 of gameplay for that or making omega a small hub ala lair of the shadow broker

I liked it a lot but the conclusion was so disappointing. I'm not sure how I'd rate it honestly. Saying 9/10 or 10/10 is too nice for how negative I felt about the ending, but ranking lower than that is too unfair for how great I thought the rest of it was.

Pretty good set-pieces, liked the space battle. Nyreen was an interesting character. Annoyed I never found Aria's couch.

Im gonna give it a 7 out of 10. Not as great as Levi. The setpieces where nice tho and the new enemies and squaddies as well, but to much repetitive combat for me. Compare it to Overlord, a competely different story that has nothing to do with the main story.

That's how I felt when playing the base game. Hearing that it's just more of the same doesn't make me want to invest in any DLC. The price also helps lower my enthusiasm a great deal. Posted Image

 Ok Dear Bioware. You screwed up. Again.

1200 Biopoints for 2 hours of quite boring shooting session against cerberus? Who camed up with this price. This dlc for me was shorter and far less exciting than lewiatan. Another wasted potential. 

No more singleplayer DLC's for me anymore. If this is your quality / price ratio you are offering for me as customer then it was the last time i fell screwed over. 


But lets summarize this dlc:
Adventages:
->Great intro and first 20-30 minutes of assault of omega
->Cool Semi-Horror scenes in mining area
->Also Cool Reactor mission 
->Combat itself, but a little too predictable.
->Visiting ME2 locations

And here the adventages ends.


Disadventages:
-> Dlc is combat only, with no moral consequences except reactor scene!
-> Longer you play DLC, you realise how boring it is. Allow me to perform and experiment. Try to watch a movie which tooks 3 hours, including 2 hours of combat scenes against one main antagonist only. Constantly. No one will stand this, no matter how epic it would like to be.
->Right... 1200 Bioware point for 3 hours? I prefer to go to cinema for a SCI movie. Far Cheaper. Similar entertaiment lenght. For this price for me it was too short. If i recall necesarry time to complete Lewiatan was preety the same like Omega. And Lewiatan was far well written - more interesting and exciting... 
-> No side quests at all except find between dead enemies bodies some object s/ terminals.
-> No NPC which you might interact to except Aria, Nyrren, and that Arias batiarian "do it" guy. I assume all of them are not giving a damn about famous commander shepard.
->No ME2 connection except Harrod, who mentions 'he might know you'.
-> Killing Nyrren - honestly ist this somekind of new way to introduce new characters? Yay let us hang for a while with quite interesting and well build character (Nyrren as Aria opposite personality was great idea) and kill him. It is so simple for scenario writers...
-> Wasted Potential of storyline. C'mon Omega is full of thugs and only Talons got organized? 1 gang and bunch of Aria's thugs were taking over omega, while most of her whole army retreated because of some upgraded cannons? I thougt i will have challenge to unite some criminal groups before final strike, it was not challenging at all. I just fell like i was shooting the loads of cerberus troops walking without sense from point A to B.
Ah yea right. Their "secret experiments". Wasted potential again.
->Finally the result of Omega does not effect the game at all. We are even not able to return to taken back station! Where is my discount for taking back Arias couch for Harrot! I didn't had chance to meet with him after completing this task! Oh wait i forgot about additional war assets. The one i got already a maximum value thanks to multiplayer.
-> Bugs, bugs, bugs. Again sometimes ladders are not working correctly/ characters are flying in air in elevators (for ex. reaching reactor). Shepard getting frozen during elevator conversation in about 200m from characters he speaks to.
->"Objections to normady squad mates" - Afraid of Archangel or what? Aria is resignig from a most advanced ship with cammo technology and whole most experienced, even galaxy best squad for no good, and clear reason. Great!


->Did you know that aria is still chilling out in citadel purgatory?

800MS would've been better, a bit glitch'y at times, especially Aria speech and idtk for anyone else but the frame rate almost died on me at the end in the Afterlife, I'd say wait till it costs either 800MS or whatever that will be in dollars.

I don't like how Bioware is trying to turn videogame storytelling into 3 minutes of "interactive movie" + 20 minutes of a glorified corridor with boring generic mechanics, I know that ME3 already followed that scheme but it became a lot more apparent and annoying on Omega for some reason.

I already have two monitors to see a movie and play Counter Strike against bots at the same time, that's not what I expect from a story-driven videogame, especially a RPG.

Overall I feel really disappointed with this DLC: ridiculous price tag, boring gameplay, "meh" plot, childish black and white decisions, destroyed character (Oleg got Gillian'ed),  tons of wasted potential, already criticized inmersion problems showing up every second (Avengers everywhere, Shepard hitting invisible walls every step, etc), very buggy (had to reload 3 times on one run)...

I expected some interesting twist in the end, something like being able to shoot Aria in the back and force Oleg to leave Omega on Nyreen's hands but it never came, only good characters getting killed in less than 3 hours and more boring Aria being Aria.

Good DLC. But very straight-forward, I liked Leaviathan a lot more for its particular atmospheres, and it also seems extremely isolated. Literally you go and four hours later it's as if it never happened, it's really weird.

It is a solid DLC. I'd give it a 8.5/10 though it is a little over priced.

I took a few points off because a few glitches, an unnecessary death, I couldn't bring Archangel with, and the fact that Patriarch and Captain Gavorn never showed up.

All in all it is very enjoyable regardless

Sounds like Bioware's DLC quality is slipping just like their games.

Far too linear and Omega completely disappears off the map once the missions are over. It does not become a mini hub world like it should have been (similar to the Shadow Broker ship).

Great DLC... until the end, why not a hub?

To expensive for what's worth, problem is:
-Good shooter, but ME isn't a shooter, there wasn't enough story / choice :(

I hope next DLC will be better, or cheaper.

Overall, 6/10; would've give 8/10 if it was 10$

This DLC was OVERPRICED.

I play only on insanity, and take my time exploring. My final clock in time was three hours and some odd mins.

No, it was not worth it. I will be uploading my gameplay...that way people will not waste their cash on this and still view it.

2/5.

EDIT

I didn't clock myself to just clock myself, I recorded my gameplay to get some footage of me kicking ass. And well, yeah. 3 hours for 15 bucks? Really? Especially when Levi was a bit longer and cheaper?

This does not bode well for future DLC. Oh well.

And yes, overall, in a general sense, it is not a plethora of cash, but still. Smart consumers, we have to be.
