There wasn’t a Lemmy community yet for the impending RedditExodus, so I figured “why not be the change you want to see in the world,” and here we are.
To kick things off: Tell me your favorite working theory for the upcoming game.
Happy you made this.
I think my current working theory for the upcoming game is “Holy fuckbalks why did I not know this was a thing?!?!”
Honestly I’d prefer a more narrow story rather than a galaxy spanning doomsday threat, just put me in that universe again and let me explore.
That being said I try and avoid speculation and I’m not gonna say it’s bad if it doesn’t match what I would like.
our presense will never be complete without a community devoted to porn… because mass effect fans are just kinda like that.
in fact i find myself slightly ashamed that i have been in the mass effect fandom, a not insignificant part of that shame being due to the horny stuff that just seems inescapable.
No idea but I’m gonna wait till it is going for cheap and get it in a steam sale
Do we know if it’s supposed to be more open world like Andromeda or back to a linear style?
Well, I try not to overthink/overhype nowadays, I’ll just wait patiently ;)
Yeah, I’m much the same way; I didn’t know what else to put as a conversation starter!
So I’ll give this one: To save on dev resources, the new Mass Effect will operate like a Five Nights at Freddy’s game, and our protagonist week be a pizza delivery person.
Hey, thanks for putting this community together. It’s great to be amongst the other ME fans as the RedditExodus begins in earnest.
I haven’t researched much of anything regarding theories for the new game. Someone on the original subreddit had theorized that the use of the suspected Geth telescope at the edge of the Milky Way is involved and that there could be time travel involved.
A personal theory of mine is that anything we see of Shepard will be flashbacks from Liara and that they’re not actually alive. A bit controversial, perhaps, but I think Shep’s story ended with the trilogy. I’m not sure how I’d feel bringing them back from the dead - so to speak - again for this new game.
Thank you for joining! I’m super happy to see that there’s a wee bit of traction here.
As far as your theory, I was kinda thinking the same, actually. Maybe the search for Shepard (like we see with Liara picking up the N7 helmet) is tied to the search for figuring out WTF even happened up on the citadel; it’s not like Shep got a chance to radio ahead before deciding everyone’s fate. People are probably very confused. 😆
Absolutely! I think so long as we have a foothold here on lemmy.world, more of our people, those on the Reddit Exodus and beyond will be able to flock here and grow our new community.
That’s what I’m hoping for and yeah, they’re probably really confused as to what’s going on for sure! I’m betting it’ll be the bridge between the trilogy and Andromeda, so that hopefully we can see a continuation of the series that takes the best aspects from Andromeda and the trilogy.
