Sounds like it'd be more of a side quest, unless it contains info relating to the Reapers. Then again, are they going to include Zaeed and Kasumi in ME3 since not everyone is going to have gotten/bought either or both of them.

There's the same problem with reviews all over the place, though I know some have disabled posting reviews until the release date, but one which sticks out is Amazon. So many people leave reviews for unreleased games/books/cd's/you name it, but just saying "Can't wait for this!". Then others will leave a pre-reease review complaining about people leaving pre-release reviews, thus continuing to screw the whole thing up...

It drives me completely bonkers; you may be able to tell.

yea...that's what i'm thinking. i don't think either Kasumi or Zaeed will get representation in ME3 because all in all their contribution to the main story was almost negligible..they were probably thrown in to purely entertain. they're expendables in my opinion.

it drives me bonkers too. i mean..there is nothing to review. so y leave totally lame statements disguised as 'reviews'. its just silly kids i think...trying to while away time waiting for ME3's release..or just trying to get noticed maybe.

Well good, they should take their time with it. That's something that surprised me, EA usually rushes everything. I'm kind of glad it got pushed back because I'm going to be occupied with Skyrim!

After the many shortcomings of Dragon Age 2, this can only be a good thing. It means that it wont be as rushed and will have higher quality content. Personally, I would be fine if they pushed it to the 1012 Holiday season, as long as it turned out to be a great game.

Are you looking???

I hated how they dumbed down DA2 to "attract the COD fanbase." That's some really stupid logic, COD is an FPS not an RPG. The two genres are completely different. The other side is that Bioware was forced to rush the game (thanks to EA) and therefore got sloppy and, dare I say it, lazy.

Please, let's not turn this into the zillionth DA2-hate thread on the internet. x.x

All I'll say on the subject is I actually enjoyed DA2. I wasn't looking at it as DA:O 2, but a game set in the DA universe, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Oh, and I'm certainly not amongst the CoD crowd before you say it.

Now you mention it, I'd like to see which source interview you're using where they said they dumbed it down for the CoD crowd.

Sorry for being an ass, but I'm tired of all the DA2 bashing. Most people actually enjoyed it, but like always, they're busy playing the game whereas the minority hating the game are the ones on the forums hating on it. I proudly support DA2 for president! Er, you know what I mean.

...i know what u mean sky. i enjoyed DA2 too. the feature i loved most with both DA2 and topic on hand ME series is the game continuity aspect. its a great thing and that also means we need to be careful about the decisions we have taken or will take(for some) while playing ME2 so that we can have the desired effect on ME3. gosh! its a loooong wait

Another supporter! We're few and far between. I think that's the beauty of not releasing an official list of every change which carries over though. It makes you really think about what you want to do, because you have no clue how it might turn out in the end, especially the small things, like sticking a gun in Conrad's face.

Well, apart from the obvious ones like sparing the Rachni queen.
