What a giant, shameful copout.

 

 

Why in the world would I want to play a spinoff? Here they say Shepard's trilogy is over, only to create a game set during it. No amount of heroic deeds will make this N7 dude topple Shepard considering Shepard is saving the Citadel/Killing Collectors/Killing the Reapers while our N7 Bob is busy charting planets.

 

Damn shame. They should've made a sequel set 500 years into the future where the ending of ME3 simply didn't matter anymore.

I agree, what a shame, opportunity wasted

[SolNebula]

That's quite surprising. If that is true I really cannot think how they can build an engaging storyline during Shepard trilogy since everything there is about Reapers and Cerberus....they pick the most difficult solution for the next game. It would have been much easier to simply canonize an ending and move forward but they still want us to deal with this storyline.

My guess the ME:Next storyline is BEFORE the Reaper invasion, maybe during ME1 and ME2 because it's impossible to ignore the Reapers in ME3......if they decided to do this I guess they have a plan. I'm currently skeptical but i'm open to be surprised by BW. Time will tell

video or it didn't happen. I want to hear them say it.

 

I refuse to believe Bioware would be THIS stupid!

[Pateu]

Also heard someone saying this is all a ruse and that ME4 is still about Shepard and will deal with indoctrination.

 

I.e. the aftermath of Shepard waking up in HIGH EMS Destroy and winning the war.

 

Even -THAT-, as short a game as it would be, would be preferred over a ****** spinoff imo.

That's wishful thinking however...I can only imagine ITers going nuts. Let's not give any false hope.

[Pateu]

Playing an N7 human male again and having it set during the trilogy is just so incredibly bad Bioware can't be serious about it.

 

My 2c was that they will go the Dragon Age Origins route and let you play an alien... but playing a boring n7 human again? God, no.

New protag: Well, we did it! We saved a bunch of people in a small section of space somewhere AND IT TOTALLY MATTERED!

 

*wave of green energy*

 

Glowy new protag: The **** just happened?

 

XD

pretty much, yeah!!! crude but accurate

[CroGamer002]

There is no confirmation on the timeline.

 

Some journalists only said they only had impression that it might be set in Shepard's lifetime, but the most said nothing at all.

These 'journalists' should stop thinking and just report what they see and hear.

It's funny how people are so quick to draw negative conclusions from things that have absolutely no confirmation. Not only that, but you have to make things up, or just not actually think about things through before posting. Face it, you guys want MEnot4 to fail and no matter what decisions Bioware makes a lot of you guys are going to hate it anyway.

 

1) They never said that it would take place during Shepard's timeline. A bunch of over anxious fans and media members desperate for a story to write up for clicks on their site are going to post "information" that's nothing more than speculation. The only thing Bioware confirmed is that the Mako is back.

 

2) They never said we'd only play as an N7 human. Do you not know how marketing works? They are very early in development, and they are just clinging to what is familiar to fans in the early process for the sake of branding. That N7 patch on the armor is merely so we can recognize that its Mass Effect. From tweets I read they said that playing as other races was a huge thing in ME3, and said that it is unconfirmed whether there will be playable races in SP. Again, early development, things change. Inquisition originally had only 1 playable race, but they upped it to 4.

 

3) People are complaining because not a lot of info has been released on this game, saying the panel was a waste of time. Mass Effect 3 was very rushed and the final product suffered from it more than just the endings. Shouldn't people be glad that Bioware is taking their time? I'd rather them release information when its ready, instead of just clumsily tossing a presentation that isn't ready, just because fans are entitled whiners. If MEnot4 takes 3-4 years to develop, rejoice because the game will be better for it.

 

People are just too quick to put Bioware on a pike. When Inquisition comes out and its an amazing game I hope people stop with this anti-Bioware nonsense because it feels like no matter what Bioware can't win with you guys. The Mass Effect fanbase could learn a lot from the Kingdom Hearts fanbase. It's such a passionate one that actually celebrates when a new game comes out and wants the series to succeed, even after some low points.

[Knottedredloc]

If playing a N7 human is so boring why are you even following Mass Effect? Because that's what Mass Effect is a game about playing as a N7 human. Why would they change that? Mass Effect is NOT Dragon Age. It has and should always a story told from the human perspective.

LOL! What's next, complaining about the next game being set in space? LOL!

[CannotCompute]

Cool! This means the Ark Theory is a viable one.

 

Don't really understand why people are acting disappointed.

lmao "Mass Effect is a game about playing as a N7 human"

 

the Einstein is strong in this one.

[Vegeta 77]

Wait until you get more info about the game before you start moaning. Its set in the same time as shep so what there are more storys to tell.

[Estel78]

No amount of heroic deeds will make this N7 dude topple Shepard considering Shepard is saving the Citadel/Killing Collectors/Killing the Reapers

 

Why does it need to?

[filetemo]

not only in the same timeline but also a n7, so we are playing a shepard who is not shepard.

 

why can't we play as another race / timeline? I could even accept a Synthesis canon at this point instead of a spin off.

[tehturian]

To be fair I'm not thrilled about the idea of playing from an alien's perspective in single-player. The aliens in Mass Effect have already become too human for my liking. Having my short lived, naturally impulsive human character for instance act pretty much the same way as a two hundred year old Asari would only devalue the 'alien factor' of the aliens further. 

 

There's still plenty of human perspectives to explore, eg mercenary, smuggler, police, security etc. Even within the N7 perspective there are different directions you can take. 

[Golden_Persona]

Why does it need to?

People are being hypocrites. They don't want Shepard 2.0, but if the new protagonist is alive during Shepard's time then it means his journey is a smaller one, meaning he won't be Shepard 2.0... but then they going complaining about that his journey might be smaller and inconsequential.

 

You can't win against these kinds of people.

This would actually be a bigger cop-out.

The same could be said about Dragon Age Origins and it went fine.

 

This would actually be a bigger cop-out.

 

How exactly?

[Pateu]

Why does it need to?

 

Because it would be Hawke all over again. The Warden is off saving the whole world while Hawke is fighting a bunch of mages.

 

Replace Warden with Shepard and Hawke with N7 Bob.

My complaint is totally based on playing an N7 human. Totally. Not like I'm complaining we ALREADY PLAYED an n7 human before. Nope.

[Pearl (rip bioware)]

You said it yourself. They would be going so far in to the future that the ending chosen would become irrelevant. Everyone would blast them for taking the easy way out ("remember that mega-important choice you made? Cause we don't!") and for not having the balls to canonize one of the endings.
