My name is Commander Shepard and this is my favorite Mass Effect community on the citadel.

Rules

  1. Be nice! We're all here for our love of Mass Effect. This is a welcoming community for all stripes, let's just remember there's people on the other side of the screen and act accordingly.
  2. Memes are great - seriously, I need more Mass Effect sh!tposting in my life.
  3. If you're here, you gotta post. Thems the breaks, kid.

While all eyes are on Bioware's upcoming Dragon Age sequel, Dreadwolf, industry insiders have heard rumors that Mass Effect 4 (or 5) won't be open world.

The second game had day one DLC with that Cerberus Pack thing.

Not to mention the additional crew members.

And the last game had the DLC baked onto the disk.

And really needed the free Extended Cut DLC to make a halfway decent ending...and the Citadel DLC to have a proper send-off to the cast...and fucking Javik.

ME has done a whole lot really well, but "finished on release" is nowhere on that list.

Not to mention the additional crew members

Crew members, skins, additional weapons and missions... just too much DLC to call that complete on release.

Do you remember having to log on each play session to allow the game to check if the DLC was valid, and if it failed you just didn't get the content you paid for; The good ole days.
