I wouldn't be too unhappy if someone else carried the torch of mass effect the property elsewhere. I'm assuming that EA still holds all rights for those games?
I think the closest thing we'll get is the game Exodus.
It's being made by some former og Bioware devs, including the writer. So hopefully the game can hit that same mark.
That'd be nice. I hate that this would likely be the end of the Mass Effect universe but if there's a spiritual successor, I'd be happy. All good things must come to an end and all that.
From what I've seen, the lore could be Mass Effect levels of ambitious: tens of thousands of years of history, ruins upon ruins, empires upon empires, tons of opportunities for discovering ancient intentions. Whether they pull it off is an open question, of course!
Yup, the foundation is pretty good. I read the books by Peter Hamilton, and after a rough start (contract work after all), it’s pretty obvious that they created a setting where an infinite number of stories could be told.
Many redflags for me on this one. And I have been following it since the early days with the email lore drops. I hope I am getting surprised in a positive way though.
I'm still very interested but been put off a bit myself because of a few things. Like the character designs, not talking about bullshit "not attractive" shit but the main character looks really funky like he's a catwalk model full of botox and they backpaddled on going with a classic character creator which usually makes me more interested due to replay factors. Heck, they've yet to even show female Yun unless I've missed it so I don't even believe there will be any. We'll see. Not convinced it's the "next Mass Effect" myself. And to me, Mass Effect to me is about the universe it is set in and the continuation of that so any other game, great or bad stands on their own outside of my love for the Mass Effect franchise.
