Good. You opened this message. This isn't actually asari military command. They're busy tending to what's left of their planet.

So you survived our fight on Thessia. You're not as weak as I thought. But never forget that your best wasn't good enough to stop me. Now an entire planet is dying because you lacked the strength to win. The legend of Shepard needs to be re-written. I hope I'm there for the last chapter. It ends with your death.

A new game could have never recaptured this feeling anyway.

Thank you, BioWare.

Keelah se'lai.

I fell in love with this universe when I was 12 years old kid and explored every inch of it. Now I’m 30, and a piece of my childhood is gone.

First three are the Renegade interrupt, last three are the paragon (and a bonus slide in-between for Liara's side eye).

HELP Someone from Bioware please leak the script or tell us where the story was going

526 Upvotes

After all these years of waiting, knowing we'll never get to see where the next Mass Effect was going is heartbreaking. If anyone from BioWare knows what the story was supposed to be, please share it with us. Even if we never get to play it, we deserve to know how the story would have continued. Fuck EA.

327 Upvotes

So the news is a huge kick in the balls. Is that truly it then or would there be any chance EA could sell the IP? Honestly coudnt see it going to CD Project or Bethesda. Dk if there's anyone else who could take over ot will EA just let the franchise rot out of spite?

MODS Legendary Edition Multiplayer now allows console progression import

310 Upvotes

Posting this since it got an update on Sunday and fixed a lot of the initial bugs. Still a WiP but it's very very playable.!

The Mod lets you import old ME3 progress from PC, Xbox, PS3 and even the WiiU lol.

This mod is still a work in progress so expect bugs, performance quirks, and ongoing updates. Everyone in a match needs the same version.
