I mean, compared to Shadow broker.

Was it because it has bad story? (helping Liara to kill Shadow Broker is equally bad story),  too much fighting? (So instead of killing shadow broker agents,we kill Cerberus- seems pretty much the same to me) or minimum choices? Well exuse me, but Shadow broker had none, in Omega you have at least some.

Not to mention Omega took me more time than LoTSB, we get new weapons and mods and 2 new squad mates.
I dont really get why it is so worse according to some people.

Why ? :/

You're gonna need a flame shield for this one. Just cause they're not permanent

[andy6915]

Why? Because of jaded Mass Effect fans infesting this board with their drivel. That's pretty much the reason.

[AresKeith]

Because its overpriced for the content inside the DLC

It isn't really bad

[FoureyesZero]

Because mass effect 3 did not have a happy simple ending that they could understand so they hate everything now without reason.

LotSB is grossly overrated on these forums.

Lack of dialogue wheel/choices for one

[DaveTheRave05]

Why? I don't know. I'm starting to think the majority of the people here 'hate' Omega and anything post Mass Effect 3 to try and look cool or important, make themselves stand out amongst the hate crowd or something. A lot of the hate is just butthurt anyway.

I personally thought that Omega was great. Wasn't mindblowing, like the same majority thought it was going to be, but what more could you ask for when the whole thing was based around taking Omega back from Cerberus? I'm glad that Aria was fleshed out more as a character, rather than your basic crime lord, and was developed well alongside her relationship with Nyreen. Nyreen herself was a good character too, though I do wish her Biotic Protector ability could be unlocked. I'll get over it though.

Really, only complaints I have are the odd glitch here and there (really, it isn't nearly as bad as people are saying it is. Some I found quite humourous), but for £10, it's a decent price tag. I enjoyed it, and that's all that matters. Yes, I will be looking forward to the next DLC, whatever that may be.

[MegaSovereign]

No real payoff. Nyreen dies in a contrived way. Graphical glitches that make it seem unpolished. Those are just the big ones.

Leviathan was better and it costs 5 bucks less. Omega should have been cheaper.

My sentiments exactly.

[Yumi50]

I don't hate it. I just think LotSB is better. Don't know why. I had more fun with that than this.

[Meglivorn]

I just finished and liked it. I like the Shadow Broker too, but mostly for the banters and smartlines with Liara. Aria was just as she should be (dunno what was some people expecting, after the books and comics). Nyreen was cool, and finally Omega felt like a huge mining station city and not just a few rooms.
So, for me it was great, and thanks for the adventure.

Point.

Over priced.

No Story.

Boring.

This.
Theres no doubt in my mind that if those endings were changed nobody would care about all the flaws in the DLCs.
EC got flammed. 
Leviathan got flammed. 
and now Omega is getting flammed. It's going to keep on going this route.

Pretty much this I would think.

I don't like the ending or the last mission that so many people have issues with, it feels lacking in so many ways. Which the Omega mission imo got right. It feelt more interactive and fluent at the same time.

The london mission was a lot of talking in the FoB with a random turret and then hordemode to the beam. The talking bits in the London mission was ok, though the whole of the mission could have been designed better with more variance.

I think Omega was ok for a DLC.

At the same time, Omega is out of the way and seems remote while the Reapers are burning down major homeworlds with billions of people. Might free some resources to help those worlds but, well, I guess the story is ok which is what counte imo.

I also read that people thought it was weird with cerberus troups surrendering, slightly, but at the same time they are programmed to follow order and Oleg wasn't imprinted like them, so when he recognized a defeat he ordered a surrender like many military leaders woudl do in a completely hopeless situation, even if it's not a TIM like procedure.
Also he wasn't always a cerberus man, so the old way might still be part of him to soem degree and he wanted to save his own skin if possible.
Most of it was probably him trying to save his own skin I would bet, because the remaining troops were in no position to save him so he treated it like a chessgame and admitted defeat.

As for people thinking it was too expensive, /shrug everyone will have to judge that for themselves. I've wasted far more money in the past and got farless for it.

[NT121784]

Just finished it. While I don't hate it, I have issues with it. $15 bucks for only 2, maybe 3 more hours of content A story that might as well have not happened since there is no mention of the events outside the DLC. No new squady. (this doesn't bother me too much, but still woulda been nice.)
New weapons that true fans would've had already. Other things that I won't mention due to spoilers.

[Hudathan]

I liked Aria's character development and I liked Nyreen. The combat was nothing to write home about and I'll give that one to the complainers. The dialogue between the squad was particularly well written with Shepard given plenty of choices. Petrovsky was an entertaining antagonist and I wish the game spent more time with him. All in all I enjoyed what Omega was trying to do and recognize that many of the shortcomings mostly had to do with the limited size of any DLC.

This idea, rephrased so it's not so inflammatory, is fair.

Basically, the ending now leads to everything to do with ME3 being viewed in a negative light. Flaws and shortcomings are crystallized, strengths are handwaved or forgotten.

Edit: Of course, it's possible that this DLC is just that bad. Arrival to me, for example, had no positive points. Hated every bit of it.

Of course, it has its flaws.
But some people here made threads saying that they are done with Mass Effect because Omega was so bad. Seems a little extreme to me.

[Hudathan]

Haters gonna hate.

Much of the Pros/Cons page consist of "apples are bad because they're not oranges."

[Orangey]

I didn't hate it, but compared to Leviathan and other DLC it was rather underwhelming. The price didn't help and some of the glitches - like the ones in Aria's speech, I mean seriously? - really took me out of the experience.

Pinnacle Station was widely derided when it came out and that was long before ME3 even existed.

[UrgentArchengel]

My biggest problems were the price felt too steep, and it was really just a pointless DLC. It doesn't add anything really. I'm not talking about the ending, just that they could've done much more with it. A little outside the box would've been nice. Maybe Oleg goes through the Omega-4 relay to escape, and then it's a cat, and mouse chase. Maybe some kind of revelation on something. (Obviously not that whole Omega is a previous Crucible thing). I don't know. It just felt lacking when there was plenty of potential. Leviathan at least added some insight when you applied some brain power around it, and the ending.
