It could even be the N7 guy
This is great info, thanks!
I'm glad that MP seems connected to SP. Hopefully Mac's simply using marketing speak for the drones, and the better players actually get better content for playing MP, as they rightfully should.
Ryder? The fan nickname is canon? Also, who was the ponytail girl in the trailer? Was that the player?
It wasn't so much a fan nickname in the sense that the fans made it up. It was a theory based on a dogtag that was glimpsed in an early teaser.
Let me remind you that the most treasured Dragon Age game of all time also "tied you" to family. Remember the Couslands?
I hate family in real life and family feels, but I found the family the DA:O and DA2 worked very well.
"The only vehicle you can control is the Mako, no space battles for you".......So wait do we not control the tempest?
Hundreds of years in the future. So between 100 - 1000 years after the events of mass effect 3.
My main concern is the family. From a RP perspective parents and siblings are fine(just don't make their only purpose to die like in DA2), but I don't want to get stuck with a spouse and kids if I didn't want that for my character.
Especially if the game is going to try to use them as a cheap way to get me invested. Simply throwing a kid at me and saying "you care about them now" doesn't work and 50 hours later I've completely forgotten who the hell Shaun is or why I'm supposed to care about him because I'm too busy looking for more adhesives for my gun mods because every god damn mod requires it.
It's a good point. I don't mind them limiting our motivations within reason, but I hope they avoid a situation where our main story goal is finding or protecting someone the main character is related to.

Since even a bioware producer have been using that name when tweeting about the character, seems like it.

With Reaper ftl it would take 230 years, with Citadel races ftl twice as long (according to math and lore)
why the hell couldent they just show that in a actual story/gameplay video
it honestly pisses me off.
After ME2 and ME3, I no longer expect greatness from this guy (or indeed his entire team). But I appreciate his enthusiasm and willingness to listen to fan feedback.
I hope people will stop saying the MEA team is taking the "Fallout 4 approach" to PR. This is clearly the opposite of that. They're going the "tell, don't show" route instead. Because why show gamers a game when you can give them text instead?
why are we thinking that BioWare gives 2% of a sh*t about their own lore?
mmmm salt. Why are we thinking the opposite of that?

Reapers: Trapped in Dark Space as of ME1 by vast distances. Floor the throttle and reach MW galaxy via conventional FTL in the few months before ME3 anyway.
I've no doubt the Andromeda colonists will simply do the same.

except Mac Walters just confirmed the trip took centuries and trailer shows us that we wake up from stasis with a relieved 'we made it'

Nothing will stop people from saying it's either the Fallout 4 approach or that this obviously means the game is terrible because they would show us something if they had it.
Though this is still really minimal even as a "tell, don't show" route.
mmmm salt. Why are we thinking the opposite of that?
Because we've played BioWare's games? The lore of Mass Effect and Dragon Age changes from game to game.

That happens in pretty much every piece of fiction. Small retcons to make things fit, and if you can't roll with that then you can't enjoy anything, atleast not sequels. Point out something that doesn't do small lore changes to make the setting fit together.

You forgot to count the time Shepard was dead, the timeline in Mass Effect 2 the time period between ME1 and 2 which is a minimum 2.5- 3 years. It is safe to assume the Reapers had a plan C if the Citadel Relay malfunctioned or was disabled and Saren failed.
