GDC is only a few days away!!

if you’re already feeling the Anxiety Bug about networking/socializing with so many people (seriously, there might just be 30,000 people again this year), then feel free to refer to this article for some help!

happy to answer any specific questions too πŸ€”

Fata Morgana….. hello brother in arms,,,

entirely agreed. It does so much work to honor your decisions that the ending doesn’t bug me. the ending was never going to magically account for everyone’s tiny choices anyway!

haha agreed! Citadel is still the best DLC ever made imo!

granted, much of this relies on the relationship you’ve built with them over the previous games. what the ME trilogy achieved has not been done since, and given how long development cycles are nowadays, i doubt it will be done again for a long time. but still! forever my favorite game along w/ TW3.

2 is an extremely good game, but Mass Effect 3 is a game that deepens, honors, and celebrates your relationship to its characters in ways all other games only dream of achieving imo
