Sad day. My thoughts are with you and your team @GambleMike thank you for the memories. #masseffect
Garrus Vakarian's habit of always being busy with "calibrations" when Shepard visits became one of the series' best-loved running jokes, and Mass Effect 3 has some fun poking at it directly. #MassEffect
The first Mass Effect launched in 2007 as an Xbox 360 exclusive, published by Microsoft Game Studios. PC players got it in 2008, but PlayStation owners had to wait until 2012 for a PS3 version. #MassEffect
The Citadel, the seat of galactic government, is secretly the biggest mass relay of all. The Reapers built it as a trap: a gateway that lets them pour in from dark space and wipe out the galaxy's leadership in one strike. #MassEffect
The genophage was created by the salarians and deployed by the turians to end the Krogan Rebellions. It leaves only about 1 in 1,000 krogan pregnancies viable, slowly pushing the species towards extinction. #MassEffect
The original SR-1 Normandy was a joint project between the human Systems Alliance and the turian Hierarchy. A prototype stealth frigate, it could hide its heat signature and slip past sensors undetected. #MassEffect
The Reapers' motive was originally going to be tied to dark energy building up from eezo use. That's why Haestrom's sun acts strangely in Mass Effect 2. The idea was dropped after lead writer Drew Karpyshyn left the series. #MassEffect
Shepard never actually says "We'll bang, okay?" in the games. The famous line came from a fan-made YouTube Poop that spliced together real Shepard dialogue out of context. #MassEffect
Both voices of Commander Shepard are Canadian. Mark Meer (male Shepard) is from Edmonton, and Jennifer Hale (female Shepard) was born in Newfoundland and Labrador. #MassEffect
Liara T'Soni is 106 years old when you meet her in the first game. That sounds ancient, but asari can live for over 1,000 years, so by their standards she's barely an adult. #MassEffect
Joker, the best pilot in the Alliance, has Vrolik syndrome, a condition that makes his bones extremely brittle. A clumsy handshake could break his hand, which is why he rarely leaves the cockpit. #MassEffect

I can finally talk about Mass Effect Universe.
Since Bioware closed I can now reveal that I was part of the Mass Effect Council, saw what BioWare was building, and provided feedback during development.
• Set 600+ years after the Reaper War
• You play as a customizable N7 agent
• Instead of being a walking gun rack, you're a cross between John Wick and James Bond
• Shepard's legacy preserved, regardless of your ending
• A galaxy divided into three major factions
• Humanity, Krogan, Batarians, and more allied together
• Council races forming their own alliance
• The Geth emerging as a third superpower
• A galactic Cold War instead of another Reaper style invasion with a shadowy adversary
• Geth-built megastructures
• Connections between the Milky Way and Andromeda
• Experimental technology implanted in you as a unique point of difference
• Hacking and manipulating the environment
• See through walls, identify systems, remotely trigger hazards and more
• Handcrafted missions like ME1-3
• But with Hitman-style freedom in how you complete them
• Brutal close-range executions
• Squadmates who can clash with each other
• Romance wasn't being sanitised
• Liara returns - now an incredibly powerful Asari Matriarch
From what I saw, BioWare was making Mass Effect for us, the fans, not for people who don't exist.
It looked incredible.
And now we may never get to play it.

Mass Effect fact #1
The series is named after a real in-universe phenomenon. Run an electric current through element zero (eezo) and it raises or lowers the mass of everything nearby. That "mass effect" powers FTL travel, shields, and biotics. #MassEffect

🚀 My Theory on MASS EFFECT 5 🌌
What if the next Mass Effect unites BOTH galaxies, the Milky Way and Andromeda?
Liara’s return, the reactivation of the relays, and a new N7 operative could be leading to something huge.

This NEEDS to happen! #MassEffect
Jennifer Hale, who plays the female version of Commander Shepard in the Mass Effect series, wants a part in the game's TV adaptation and thinks other members of the original cast should get roles as well. bit.ly/4a9Ls9A
