I'll put my reply here as the iphone browser is clearly drunk.

Don't get me wrong, i would love nothing more than post-ending dlc, as i never did a 2nd playthrough of ME3( was unhappy with the game let alone ending), Post ending dlc would make me forget all the trivial stuff i would look past. But i'm also not delusional and bioware have stated things enough times so i'm happy to not buy they're dlc. But with the " one more story " and the fact all writers are on deck i still will live in the 000000000.1% chance the story gets enhanced.

Well. Since it's just DLC I can't imagine it having that big of an impact on the overall main plot. But it could still be a fun but isolated mission.

[Peranor]

I think the "one more story" comment was just a hint for upcoming DLC. That or I'm just being cynical.

The Collector plot doesn't serve a purpose regardless of when you play Arrival.

The Collector threat was just monster of the week sort of thing. By the end of ME2, the galaxy wasn't anymore prepared for the Reapers' arrival than they were in the beginning of the game. In fact, w/ the whole "Ah, yes. Reapers" thing, the galaxy was even worse off at the end.

No, the new dlc won't be post ending for several reasons - 1) because Bioware said so, and while normally I would say to take that with an enormous mountain of salt, in this case it is legit, because 2) they want to distance themselves as far away from the ending controversy as possible, and this would open up a new pandora's box of criticism.

Plus, it would be exponentially more difficult than just creating another side-story dlc, as the variability that would have to be accounted for in post-ending dlc is large.

It's beyond wishful thinking. It's like a pipe dream wrapped inside a fat chance once hell freezes over after pigs fly.

There, fixed it for you.

Meanwhile, work on your reading comprehension so you wont make these silly mistakes next time.

You made a completrly biased poll that generalizes and ignores important factors in an attempt to prove an asinine point.

What a quality thread.

that's why I blame ME2 for the series woes. I love the game. But it was the first Bioware game under EA's rule, and they incorporated mainstream shooter gameplay while taking out all of the things that made me fall in love with ME1. And the Collectors "side-story" took away from the main story-arcs plot progression.

The should have kept the focus on the Reapers. Then, maybe the third game wouldnt have had to worry about fitting the entire invasion and war into a single game....amongst the many other narrativesbthat get tied up during the course of ME3. They should've drawn it out over two games. Instead they wasted time on side story about Collectors.


I view the first game on its own. It stands alone in my eyes. ME2 and ME3 are sequals in narrative and characters only. Gameplay wise, ME1 is a different beast. ME3 is simply a sequal to the type of game we were introduced to in ME2, and a continuation of absent ME1 elements. (Mako, exploration, wide open battlefields instead of narrow corridors, and just the overall atmosphere of the first game.)

I highly doubt it will be post-ending DLC too...

Breaking down things to the simplest level is often very illuminating, as it is here. Don't like it, vote for the second or third option. You're just mad because my poll is accurate.

No, I've made it pretty clear I'm mad bcause it's not accurate.

The statements are not by themselves incorrect, it's the fact you've left out cruicial details and context thus making the statements misleading.

LMAO @ BleedingUranium's poll.


Anyway, lets keep this on-topic.


Another reason why the DLC won't be post-ending: Shepard is DEAD in most of the endings. Or do you honestly expect an DLC where we play as someone else?

With that logic you could say the entire ME trilogy is one big filler. It's all just a bedtime story told by grandpa Stargazer.  We have yet to see the REAL Mass Effect trilogy.

i don't think many people thought it would be anything besides a little more about the breath scene or something

The Collector "threat" was also overhyped nonsense. The game wanted us to believe these weakling bug drones with their glorified transport ship that flees from a handful of anti-aircraft guns and gets taken out by an unupgraded SR-2 with ease was capable of harvesting the entire Alliance to build their space terminator.

People like to say what a joke Kai Leng was as an antagonist but the Collectors are in the same boat.
