But in the minds of players who put their faith in the Mass Effect series from the very beginning, it's hard to think of this as anything but a horrible sign that their fears have been somewhat founded. This is not the kind of support or advice that any gamer wants to hear, so hopefully the team will have a better explanation soon.įor those who are jumping into the series for the first time, or for those who picked the franchise up with the second installment (and its variety of DLC), this may seem like a cosmetic issue, and the resulting uproar more vain than legitimate.
