No, I love the Citadel DLC, and I love Mass Effect 3. The DLC was always intended to be meta, and I appreciate the sense of humor that the writers had about their characters. I enjoyed the surreal and over-the-top jokes.

It seems that negativity will forever plague this site. I'm truly sorry that BioWare destroyed this series for many of you. I'm sorry that you feel betrayed. I don't know what you should do about it.

Betrayed? No, though I do regret the money I spent on it and uninstalled the DLC. And this is from someone whose favorite DLC of the entire trilogy is Omega.

See...Omega is the weirdest DLC among BSN.

Either people love it to bits or they despise it and think it's a waste of money. There's no middle ground a la Stolen Memories or Overlord.

ME DLCs, other than Omega, seem toexist in three states. Either universally loved (LotSB), hated (Pinnacle station) or even an universal "Meh" (Bring down the sky).

Omega is the one DLC where it seems like an even splot between "loved" and "hated"

Nor have I seen people feel that BDtS is meh, most people seem to like it, it is just that it is overshadowed by all the good ones.

*shrug*

It's what I noted in previous "best and worst DLCs of the trilogy" polls on BSN.

Omega gets either very low scores or very high scores...there's a fair number of BSN posters that loved Omega.

The only good thing about Omega was the pew pew.

Basically the whole DLC that should've been $10 or less

Yeah, that's what it should have been priced at. Citadel DLC is the one that's worthy of being $15.

I did, but it was overpriced for what it was, should have remained a hub afterwards, and was a tad too linear. Other than that, it's one of my favorite portions to play through.

the thing about citadel is that it was incredibly detailed, every moment of the dlc there was something to find.

But theres a problem with that, why was a dlc with a premium selling price more detailed and full of great character moments than the actual bloody game!

Not to say that I'm doubting you, but I think the majority of responses I've seen have been very negative to Omega (myself included.)

IMO, only Pinnacle Station is worse.

That's my problem with Citadel. It works too well. I can play ME3 without feeling... betrayed. 

The quality and detail and spirit that went into Citadel just puts the rest of ME3 to shame.

Hell, it gave me what I've been asking to be in the vanilla game, meaningful content with Jack. I personally could care less about anything else, but I do agree with the sentiment that the story is somewhat out of place and poorly written, but hey, so is ME2 and it's my favourite game. Maybe I prefer character driven aspects and so-called " fanservice".


This rings true. I got a lot more meaningful romance with Miranda. That's what sold Citadel for me. Miranda content.

I'm of the opinion of wanting romance to play a bigger part in the story. I'm of the belief that a great many stories have a good romance behind them.

Omega's not bad.   Just not particularly "Wow!"  Especially for the price.  Should have charged about half what they did.

Omega and Citadel cost the same, but I felt I got far more out of Citadel.

Overlord was less than $10, from what I heard and I enjoyed that far more than Omega

Omega needed a better story, Omega to be a hub after, a bit longer, and more Bray (yea I said it) lol

$10 for Omega would frustrate me, but it'd be tolerable.

$15 is ridiculous.

Omega had a good plot behind it. Sure you're wondering why you have to retake Omega in the middle of the war, but Aria's promising you a big payout, so I'm going to accept it.

The execution just comes off as so terribly shoddy. There was no heart put into it. It feels like they didn't try. Maybe they did, maybe they didn't, but I believe it's crap. It's just run and gun and shoot the mook. There's a minimum of dialogue and what we get seems tired and uninspired. And there are too many bugs and issues with the product. The price for it was the final insult.

The execution of the story was pretty disappointing. What was Cerberus doing? What about the Adjutants? Who do I support, Aria, Nyreen, or Petrovsky?

Personally, I would have loved to have made peace between Aria and Petrovsky. I never cared for Nyreen. The Adjutant plot was sorely underdeveloped and uninteresting. They were sort of built up pretty well, only to go absolutely no where with them.

I still can't get over the fact that BW didn't add add the Dragoons from multiplayer in Omega. That was a let down. :(

Omega had two things going for it:

1. A credible antagonist who wasn't crazy. It felt good to beat Petrovsky. I was also a fan of his from the comics, so I *really* liked threatening Aria.
2. The P/R influence system. It was a way to carve out what my Shep thought wit much less emotional railroading.

Nyreen was my favorite new character. So I got more out of Omega than Citadel. The in-game romances aren't very good in my estimation, so that part of the DLC is just something nice to do and not a sellimg point. I want more "meat."

It was a shame how they handled the Adjutant since they were originally part of the game

And yea adding the Dragoons on Omega would've worked well
