TIM's link with ship production explains it perfectly well, as does the many projects he's already funding. He's clearly got the means.
Sure, the writers could have gone in another direction. Instead, they went the straight and logical repercussion path.
So it's logical a faction that was in a terrible position, just lost lots of its labs, personal, resources and Alliance knowing too much detail on them.... can get a giant fleet in under a year. Yeah no, does not work.
G*ddamn..wut? I'm out.
Yes how dare I have an opinion that there were some things in the Witcher 3 that I found unfavorable. That was one of them.
ME1 didn't. The Cerberus of 2 and 3 weren't a thing during ME1's time.
To do this with a choice of up to a dozen sidekicks would be very expensive to do. That is an advantage of a set protagonist and characters.
You can still do it with a custom protagonist in a Bioware game, you just need to have less squadmates.
If the original Mass Effect were released in 2017 instead of 2007 it could very well be five times as long with each squaddie getting WAAAY more backstory, time with Shepard, and chances to bond.
ME1 certainly did. They didn't know Cerberus would become this kind of thing, but they established the organization's research pursuits and recklessness.
They established a rouge black ops group that did experiments, not a para military that could compete with other fleets that happen in ME3.

Ahh yes, lets not forget Mass Effect:Retribution, where Cerberus got WRECKED. #lastgoodMEnovel
I can't argue against this.
DAMN IT MAN, this is making me realize how The Witcher's relationships between characters has so much more depth than those of the ME franchise. There needs to be more. In ME its paper thin in most cases.
Woah! I personally prefer some of the relationships of The Witcher with Mass Effect, but overall I felt Mass Effect had some qualities with much more depth.
ME1 certainly did. They didn't know Cerberus would become this kind of thing, but they established the organization's research pursuits and recklessness.
They were a small rogue black ops group, Cerberus was retconned and altered to become what they were in ME2, then given an over the top boost to their potential in ME3. Bioware easily could've created different groups to serve the same purposes.

What relationships in Mass would you say had more depth than those in The Witcher?
Why not? The game points to how they'd mobilize if they needed to.
If you want to swallow a load of bull then that;'s fine, but I can't. There's no logical way Cerberus getting this power boost makes sense after they got decimated hard in Retribution, even TIM makes it clear they got hit hard.

Garrus, Tali, Miranda, Jack, Moridin (was really sad when he died), that's all I can think of right now.

Yes, but it's diluted somewhat each time you choose a different squad in one playthrough. Of cause you mitigate this by doing enough playthroughs to experience all the different interactions.

Tali and Garrus over the course of three games I could agree with, the rest didn't have enough. Naturally though, less games.
The only good part of that confrontation was using the renegade options and shooting TIM instead of giving him that horrible Saren 2.0 crap.
You don't like being so awesome you can make both antagonists shoot themselves rather than oppose you?

Ehh, I loved the relationship Ciri had with Geralt and that was one game,
Garrus, Tali, Miranda, Jack, Moridin (was really sad when he died), that's all I can think of right now.
hmmmm i can really agree with Moridin, his death was probably a really sad moment for me, and really i didnt get anything like that from Witcher 3
Tali and Garrus over the course of three games I could agree with, the rest didn't have enough. Naturally though, less games.
well but like i said early, since Witcher 3 move away from the games and focus more on the novel, Triss was really weak and she should have been a strong character that was show on other 2 games. Same goes for Roach. His cameo on the quest was really weak and he was a main character on Witcher 2

I liked Saren shooting himself, less so with TIM as it just feelsl like a copy repaste of a character arc.
Right, because things happened between ME1 and ME3. We knew little about them, just as we knew little about the geth.
The big jump in size and stature from ME1 to ME2 facilitated the means to create what they did in ME3.
So the retcon then. That doesn't make it better. Cerberus was never consistent. A Witcher equivalent would be if The Wild Hunt suddenly became time travelers and could try to kill Geralt in his infancy in TW3. Or if The White Frost suddenly was poisonous. Its just, "wat".
Anyway I am just going to repeat what I said before which is that I wouldn't mind moving beyond the chivalrous, romantic, idealistic, knightly, courtly, medieval aesthetic that's been the corpus of gaming and a lot of other alternative media.
Not because I think it's all so bad, but since this is the prickly BSN well ok, we can criticize these things but then what about going beyond them?
And please no one say DA2 tried to do that because that's just not true, and considering MEA is following a lot of the formula so far as romance and stuff I'd say it isn't either.

TBF, the white frost and Ciri's powers DID get retcon, it's one reason the last act is the mess it is

we really dont know anything to say ME A isnt going to do it.

All they've been telling us is that everything is the same really, Mako, companions, romance, probably jokes and cracks, maybe some snark, adventuring. Also a medieval obsession with progenitor cultures where they are probably hostile and such.
