CVG - Since beginning in September 2007 Commander Shepard's intergalactic battle against the Reapers has spanned three games, an additional three spin-off titles, four novels and seven comics.
Game Rant Writes "Canonicity can be a tricky nut to crack in franchises with continuing narratives, and that's something Mass Effect 4 will need to contend with."
wow gamerant forgot mass effect 4 came out years ago number 6 and 7 were cancelled.
The new mass effect which can be called number 5 will not have any of your choices why you might ask?
Well dragon age keep were your choices from number one can been seen in number 3 got unplugged from number one and number 2 is finicky.
Dragon age on pc requires a mod to get past the server login and non of your choices get uploaded to the keep even the dlc no longer works sense it needs a server check.
On xbox i teseted this only though local saves i was able to transfer choices from one to too but 0 of one dlc would work.
So if the more popular dragon age series is in this state why would they care about your mass effect choices?
Oh and that remaster that was tossed out still has day one issues and number 3 is still hard to play on pc do to lighting issues and ram limits imposed from 2014.
My expectations for the next bioware 2.0 titles is very low.
Game Rant Writes "Mass Effect 4 will likely treat Mass Effect 3’s Destroy ending as canon, and this gives it an opportunity to explore a post-apocalyptic galaxy."
Destroy is the best choice. Bring the relays back over the course of a new trilogy, maybe right at the end of the first game. Say it was Cerberus, Salarians or a bunch of keepers that created a relay.
Game Rant Writes "Mass Effect 4 has plenty of opportunities to change a lot about the franchise, particularly in the protagonist players can create."
“Mass Effect 4 Needs to Make One Major Change with the Protagonist“
To make sure the main characters face isn’t tired with the released game?
There won't be a Mass Effect 4 ever.
Knowing Bioware, They'll probably announce ME 4 next year. They have a thing for announcing the game a year after its predecessor. Maybe ME4 at E3 2013?
A real ending !!! LOL that was to easy :p
Something that's planned out better over multiple games would be.
I don't care much for the series anymore.
The series is moving further and further away from its roleplaying roots.
They are starting to integrate multiplayer into the mix.
They are pandering to idiots in terms of story and writing. I don't think they can do much more in terms of the oversexualization seen in the games at this point. They might as well integrate a "fuck" option right in the dialogue options. Almost every female character has been turned into a barbie doll, gratuitous ass shot required. Really, who here remembers the Kelly Chambers scene from Mass Effect 2? That was just pathetic.
