"If this leak is genuine, the team behind the game is borrowing heavily from Bioware’s recent, and very well received, Dragon Age: Inquisition.
"Inquisition was a big turnaround for Bioware after the disappointing Dragon Age II, and they’re probably hoping that following the Inquisition template can entice Mass Effect fans still raw about the end of Shepard’s story in Mass Effect 3."
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?
I wouldn't mind, my only issue with Inquisition is lack of cutscenes.
Given how enjoyable DA:I was, I think it's a good thing they're potentiallty cross-transferring some of the features - or at least doing something similar.
Seems sensible to put some of the best ideas into their other popular action-RPG series.
I really hope this is not the case. Dragon Age Inquisition was a bloat fest.
If they keep the quests a little more focused that'd be okay. I always say better fifteen big questslines than a hundred small ones.
Giving out inquisition points for a quest doesn't make it 'entwined in the storyline'. Each quest should honestly have its own proper (and interesting) story.
Inquisition had (despite many promises it wouldn't be so) a lot of isolated fetch or kill x amount of ... quests.
I feel that Commander Shepard needs to make some form of appearance in ME4 even if just a cameo or possibly the new antagonist.
I'm still hung up over the ME3 ending, I wish they could just confirm the indoctrination theory already and blow everyone's mind holes.
