i do know too what "polishing a game" mean, and is a big phrase that include 100 of differences jobs, form animations, programing, texturing. So 10 months for somethings big as ME A is nothing really and probably they been on "polish" state for longer.
Better to overcompensate on polishing than having people complain about bugs like in DAI.
Look the last woman. Her appearance is like DA:I.
CREEEPY....

You are missing my point. I'm trying to say that there is more to it than just polishing and what Mac said likely sounds suspicious.
The premise still sounds retarded. Sending people to Andromeda when 99.99% of the Milky Way remains unexplored is the equivalent of NASA sending people to Alpha Centauri when we haven't even walked on Mars yet. It feels really disappointing that they had to flee to another galaxy just to protect Casey and Super MAC's endings from retconning.
People are shallow and too used to gorgeous people in games. That asari character may not even be a main character and even if she is, she doesn't have to be drop-dead gorgeous like Liara. The asari in the trailer looks like every other asari in the trilogy, tbh. Relatively average and lacks eyebrows. Really, Liara was the exception in beauty standards.
EDIT: Re-watching the trailer and I have to admit it's weird that it looks like she has eyebrows. Why does she have what looks like hair on her brow? Though my attractiveness comment still stands.
Well....it was something, the ugly Asari looks like a kid though.
I hope she is Shepard's kid.
My ugly kid
Very unlikely, that would imply a canon romance.

So what? Why do people in a game should look worse than ones I can find on a street?
So I can't I enjoy aesthetics in a work of fiction, because ugly people exist in real life? What is this nonsense?
When character's looks is relevant to his personality/story that's a different matter though.
People, you think that this game will be a new trilogy?
I hope not. But I have a bad feeling that it will be.
I just noticed that on the released screenshot of the "Ark" ship, you can see "HYPERION" written on it's side. Don't know if anyone posted this before me.

Last time I checked, after polishing a turd, to everyone's amazement, it still remains a turd.
You need to read between the lines to get a gold nugget or two. "Polishing" is used as a marketing "tell no real facts but use a word that suggests something positive".
So, what can it mean?
1. cut content that broke side quests, information, NPC dialogue, squad banter, irrelevant cinematic content... etc.
2. fixing game bugs
3. combat balancing
4. searching for impossible Easter eggs
5. fixing choices and their effects
6. reviewing and modifying romance dynamics. Does it meet the M rating? What needs to be changed?
7. play testing the game from start to finish. Is it fun? Is combat too hard? Are the difficulty settings OK?
8. testing the GUI on the three platforms
9. working on the CC and hair
10. removing superfluous features to meet game launch schedule.
11. testing game pacing.
12. multiplayer testing
13. discovering more bugs.... etc
Also, of course, actual polishing an innovative but huge old style D1ldo like wood post, in a GIF up thread.
I made that post before Mac confirmed it was pre-ME3.Your pessimism never disappoints me.
They have to leave to another galaxy because the Reapers in a Milky Way would still be a threat.

Haven't seen that myself. Makes sense as a shout-out, since the trilogy blatantly ripped off the Hyperion Cantos.

They uploaded it here: http://www.masseffec...creenshots.html
And this is what I'm talking about:
Extra polishing = getting MP working properly. 
Amazing to find new details weeks after it's release. Great work and thanks for sharing!

Why do I see everything as sexual? What I see here is someone polishing an extremely large bishop.
Also on topic : Hyperion is prolly one of the drive manufacturers.
Interestingly, Chris L'Étoile also admitted years ago that the Hyperion sci-fi saga was also one of the works that served as inspiration for the first Mass Effect. I like Fogg's explanation of Hyperion and his connection to Helius. Very interesting finding, N7HadroreX!! Thanks!!

Hm, Hyperion is the titan of light, so a cool ftl technology could be named after him
