Kotaku did a postmortem on this game it was a dumpster fire. The bulk of it was developed in a year and a half and through all the lead changes they were forced to use EA's Frostbite engine that was not designed to make an RPG on. That doesn't even get into the infighting between Bioware studios.

Why did this have to happen to Mass Effect? Should have been Dragon Age that had all this bull and got shelved.

It's a long read but a good one. Hopefully they learn from this and bring the series back.

And I'm buying to see what could've been.:martin:

Kotaku exposed them something serious

The MF who did DLC for ME3 were in charge of pushing the series to the new gen...WTF and they couldn't even stay together thru production

So I guess in 10 years or so, when BioWare or whoever has the rights to the IP needs a boost in sales they'll reboot the franchise :sadcam:

So I am 32 now. I plan to live at least until 80. So I have at least 48 years to wait this thing out. Please EA, don't make me wait too long for another ME

:russ: Gotdamn you internet!! So like..... I went to school with Josh Howard, was a teammate and later rival against him....... so personally that gif never gets old to me!! Lol

But agree, hope they don't wait too long.... like can't we get ME5 before Avengers 4?

Yea..... I don't even recall what happened but Microsoft gotta take some blame for this. This was an exclusive and since they went multiplat it's like the series went down hill

How does this happen?
