The next Mass Effect details and information possibly leak?!

edited April 2015 in General Chat

So apparently through some kind of survey a lot of details about the game has leaked. What do you guys think about it? It sounds pretty good, but who knows if all this will even be in the final version that's released.

There is more through the links, but here is some of the general info:

The next Mass Effect game takes place in the Helius Cluster (a cluster of 100s of solar systems in the Andromeda Galaxy), far removed by time and space from Commander Shepard’s heroic acts and the final events of the Mass Effect trilogy. You are a pathfinder, a combat trained but un-tested explorer leading an expedition into the Helius cluster to establish a new home for humanity. As you explore this sprawling series of solar systems (over 4x the size of Mass Effect 3), collecting resources and building colonies, you will encounter the savagery of untamed lands in the form of cut-throat outlaws and warring alien races. To survive and colonize the wild reaches of space, you will need to grow your arsenal, your ship, your crew and make strategic (and often uneasy) alliances to fight against increasingly menacing foes. Along the way, you will encounter the remains of a once powerful and mysterious alien race, the Remnant, whose forgotten technology holds the key to gaining power in this region of the galaxy. As you uncover who the Remnant were, and the mysteries their ruins contain, you are drawn into a violent race to find the source of their forgotten technology that will determine the fate of humanity.

  • !!!!!!!!!! :D

  • Well it could be true. The Dragon Age: Inquisition survey leak turned out to be true too, so it's possible.

  • Oh....Shit...

    I vowed to never buy another Mass Effect game after what happened with Mass Effect 3, but this...This looks and sounds so damn interesting...

  • Great to see if its true

  • I can't see anything that confirms whether you're able to select your own species (Asari? Turian? Krogan?) for your PC. That's one rumor about ME4 I always hoped would turn out to be true.

  • So far, from what the devs have said in the dev videos, it seems that this might be true. I'm excited.

  • It did say something about "expanding humanities reaches" or something like that.

  • So.......Mass Effect 1 all over again..

    Implying that's a bad thing

    ME1 was rough in places, but I miss the days when I didn't feel like I was in a galaxy of corridors and chest-high walls.

  • Sounds pretty legit. Nice.

  • We already know they're a human and a member of the N7 program, from last years gaming conventions.

    Sadly, it was confirmed a while ago that we're going to be playing as a human again.

  • I just want something different other than gather a team and save the world...

  • Well that's Mass Effect. If you want a different style of game then play a different style of game.

  • No that's not Mass Effect .Not anymore.

  • That's for you to decide?

  • No that's what they have been promoting.The big changes happening in ME4.

    That's for you to decide?

  • The big changes seem to be more focused on gameplay mechanics and connectivity with the world around them. It still sounds like collecting a team and saving the universe to me.
