Forgiven for what? Because you didn't like the way they ended. Live with it. If they needed our forgiveness we should have done it years ago.

Deep Asari blue, likely Elcor father.

 

My father was an elcor. He died waiting for a good Mass Effect 3 DLC. : (

Those people got exactly what they asked for.

Going out with a bang, indeed.

I think that's what this game is though. A way to appease people who felt it went wrong. A "do-over", trying to say they can do it "right" again.

 

"Will you forgive us? Please give us another chance!"

 

Because Hudson explicitly said there'd be no games after ME3's timeline. Then they saw what drama it caused and scrambled for a sequel. They couldn't stick to their guns.

 

But for anyone who liked the trillogy, it feels fairly complete. I could have been just as happy with any new sci-fi game.. it didn't need a Mass Effect brand.

This statement would make sense if they were making a Milky Way sequel that retconned away those crappy endings, but as we all know by now they're doing the exact opposite, torching the original trilogy and everything it meant to their fans just so Super MAC doesn't have to admit he and Casey wrote one of the worst video game endings in the history of video gaming.

I loved what the original Mass Effect was and I want to see more of that.

Nothing to forgive. I enjoyed the ME franchise.  The ending of ME3 was bad, that's all.  Now if MEA is terrible then I won't buy any games from them.  But right now I have no reason to not buy MEA....I also don't have a reason to pre-order either and most likely won't anyway.

If a Mass Effect customer feels that EA/BioWare requires or should aspire for their forgiveness they must first learn to forgive themselves for their conceit.

Honestly MEA is an auto-buy for me. I loved (and by loved I mean I would have married them if one were allowed to marry inanimate objects) the older Bioware games. Knights of the Old Republic is pretty much my favorite game of all time. I got into Baldur's Gate a bit late, so I was spoiled by graphics and more interactive combat systems, but I loved 'em anyway. DAO was an amazing game, and, imo, marked the last great BioWare game. ME was also pretty damn amazing.

 

DA2 was a big let down, but to be honest it was still a good game, it just wasn't BioWare good (judging by my old standards of BioWare). ME2 was pretty awful, the story was great, but the combat was basic and terrible. ME3 on the other hand was great in all the areas ME2 was bad at, combat and character progression was amazing, but where ME2 was great ME3 was bad, the story was 100% linear and a huge let down to an epic trilogy. That said ME3 was an overall good game (using a new standard for BioWare games), and DAI was good (even though it remains the only BioWare game that I cannot complete a second run through of, I've tried 3 times and stopped 20 hours in each time, which is sad because I really want to play a Qunari).

 

So I fully expect MEA to be a good game, I expect its story will be better than ME3s and its gameplay (combat and character progression) to be on par. I don't expect MEA to be a game I will treasure forever (I played a KotOR campaign just 5-6 months ago, and I'll probably play another one soon enough), but I fully expect it to be worth the 60$ admission fee.

I think EA is better than a lot of companies right now and don't deserve all the **** they get. And for Bioware i can't speak about other games, but Mass Effect never disappointed me.

Me neither bu tthen none of their games have dissappointed me Took me a while tounderstand the mechanics of DA but since then I've tthoroughly enjoyed both series
