After revealing yesterday that Mass Effect PC would employ an online activation system that requires users to re-authenticate their game every ten days, BioWare and EA have decided to back down and listen to those who actually purchase their games. In other words, the community.
Bioware writes: "Like you, we’ve heard the rumors lately. You’ve made it clear you care deeply about what’s next. So let’s start by setting the record straight: the next Mass Effect game is in development, and EA and BioWare remain committed to telling more stories in this universe."
I expected nothing and I'm still disappointed
Like with Fallout, it's starting to feel studios are using TV / Film adaptations when they have no game info to talk about.
I feel the same way.
I mean, how difficult would it be for them to release SOMETHING of substance? Another short trailer? A couple of proper hints? A short story set during the original trilogy, but focused on fringe characters?
Hopefully they're working so hard on the game that they don't have time. But still, with every passing year and so little to show, the franchise will be slipping further and further from people's minds.
Yeah agree it's almost a cop out since Dev times are 5 to 10 years just throw out a few seasons instead you get them done in a year
So the TV show will take place after the OG trilogy. I wonder which ending they’ll use?
Should’ve just posted a picture of an Elcor saying “regretfully, we have nothing to share.”
Thanks to their innovative approach to gaming, RPGs like Dark Souls, Final Fantasy VII, and Dragon Quest left a significant impact on the genre.

Good news, was taking it a bit far.
Good news, except that they're still using SecuROM, which is just a waste of time for developers and gamers.
It doesn't work, and it can hurt the performance of games that use it.
All companies should follow Stardock's example, and remove copy protection entirely. ALL games will get pirated - don't punish your legitimate customers for it.
That would of been a joke. i cant stand these nuances with games. freakin hackers ruin it for the good guys. I buy all my pc games and i have a library collection for all my games to stare at lol. im going to get this game for my pc cant wait.
whoo!
As much as I hate pirates (tho I used to be one when I was young and couldn't afford games), the pirates will ALWAYS find someways to crack and hack a game, especially a singleplayer game.
Out of all these years of gaming, only a couple of games went uncracked, or at least to a lesser extent. And those games came with terrible terrible scripts that lags your computer and bugs your system.
I feel sorry for the developers but don't see a useful solution for them... I just hope they don't try so hard to fend of pirates that it ruins the game for the people who actually buys it
