The date was November 20th, 2007, Mass Effect had just launched in the United States. Immediately I had a great interest in the title, mainly for the fact that the popular developer Bioware was responsible. They had released Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic back in July of 2003. SWTOR as many people call it was a story driven RPG, which added a lot of interest to the game to everyone who was able to give it a chance. It had many choices throughout the game which would not only change how the game was played, but change the story as you progress through as well, based on the decisions you made during conversations with other characters. Basically you would have a series of choices throughout which could be either good or evil, you would gain light side or dark side points through this. It was a great concept back then, and Mass Effect has truly expanded the idea to the next level over the years.

One of the best things about the Mas Effect series is the companions you meet along the way. So here is a tier list of all the companions from Mass Effect!
To think that Bioware at some point was capable of doing games like this, you see those characters and remember them like good old friends, and now check ME Andromeda, Anthem, Veilguard etc and wonder what the hell happened.

Based on one narratively fitting ending in Mass Effect 3, Prothean squadmate Javik is highly unlikely to return in the next Mass Effect game.
He was one of my least favorite characters. I wish they would have done the Proths different.
