Booo. I don’t trust them to handle the Mass Effect universe. Not to mention the entire point of Bioware games is player choice, and that has zero player choice. Idk, maybe first contact war or something, things that are already set in stone - but I don’t trust anyone to handle my baby anymore
Amazon did very well with The Expanse and Fallout, they could pull this off.

I feel like they’re not very comparable. Production really screwed over Halo in a way that never could have happened to Fallout because of how protective of the IP Todd Howard was. Only time will tell if the same issues plague Mass Effect as did Halo.
Please don’t suck
If you are wondering if Amazon will do the series justice, look at what they did to my poor wheel of time
Just stay far the fuck away from the games main storyline. At best, vague references to Shepard. There’s no way to do that right without alienating the existing fanbase(though I know, they don’t care about us).
