I want to ask two thing quickly.

So are people overlooking the "conspiracy" that's targeting Shepard?
Secondly, if the R&R downtime with your friends and romance interests just happen whenever you want after the Citadel dlc... Wouldn't that break up the game even more?
What I mean is, Leviathan felt like a break in the narrative. It doesn't really matter when you do it, you come back to the same story really knowing more information than you should and Shepard doesn't even use this information until the Catalyst scene at the end (when it's too late). So wouldn't downtime and the Casino in between say, Tuchanka and Rannoch.. Kind of not make sense?
I mean their idea of fetch quests was because there is a war going on and you can't be wasting time... But you can still go get drunk and gamble at the Casino?
Don't get me wrong, I'm actually looking forward to this.. And if you can play poker, I might even love it. Despite the no-ending aspect.
But are people just overreacting too soon?

Yes I did come to this realization, but I'm not sure if the conspiracy has anything to do with Harbinger which I sincerely hope it does. I'm mainly upset because of the possibility of no Harbinger and no Collectors.

However, gambling at a casino while your homeworld burns is not something that will fit in anywhere...
as DetcelferVisionary said.

And while i do not expect any conspiracy involving Catalyst or Harbinger i hope it will be something decent. Maybe something about attempt to rereprogram the keepers - though it could easily be about remains of post-coup Cerberus forces that needs to be smoked out before they do awful this and horrible that (please please no more cerberus).
So it should be viewed as a piece of story and setting in ME3 universe with more ME squadmates time that will not change anything but provide few more hours of fun prior to sinking to despair of priority Earth.

So what you have is more romance so they can get separated at the end? Exactly what everyone wanted! I love Bioware, they always know how to twist the dagger.

I don't understand that either.

I just hope the "conspiracy" isn't really relevant to other portions of the game, just so we don't end up with situations like the conversations with the Rannoch Reaper and Vendetta sounding particularly stupid thanks to knowledge revealed by the DLC. It sounds like a dumb thing to hope for pointless content, but the narrative is already so unbearably weak that it just can't survive any additional blows.

But we can already get drunk in the base games and shoot bottles with Garrus between Tuchanka and Rannoch, or, right after Thessia lol. No biggie to me
I like doing the shooting party after Horizon. Could use a break there.
Between Thessia and Horizon... that's a bit weird.

This. You can totally avoid that scenario if you just use common sense.
For example, a lot of people do Leviathan after Thessia because that would make the most amount of sense.

Prove it. The breath scene does not prove they survived the event. The best analogy I can come up with is that Shepard climbed Mount Everest. Just because they are still alive at the peak, doesn't mean they have survived the challenge.

I agree with what you say, it's not really going to fit all that well. If it's decent though, I don't think I'll care all that much.

no, because that sort of comes back to ME2 ans squad loyalty, Garrus sending you a pm on the normandy asking for some of your time is very different to Shepard getting up and going gambling on their own accord.
Even getting drunk at Purgatory is different because you are already there on missions for people.

You have convinced me. Shepard is dead in Destroy, and therefore there is no point in a reunion scene.
