My expections are more tempered after what happened with Andromeda and on the back of the news that the head of the series recently left Bioware (alongside the guy who oversees Dragon Age) but this seems to be pointing the series back to where folks wanted it.
The wreckage of what appears to be the citadel, the reaper horn- that could just be a callback and misdirection, but that appears to be Liara at the end. The speculation is Bioware are bringing Shepard back.

I must admit I'm not really into Dragon Age now. I much preferred the the aesthetics of Origins, DA2 was honestly terrible and I never bothered with the subsequent titles. The writing just seemed medicore by comparison.

I'm along the same lines. The original DA was great, but they went off the rails a bit with DA2 and that did the damage for me. The game was lazy, uninspiring and just generally tedious. I never played more an an hour or 2 of Inquisition, though the vibe from it seemed to be pointing towards a setup similar to Mass Effect 3. I was just struggling to get interested with it however.
Bioware have got it all to prove again to gamers. While the remaster is going to score them major brownie points and has restored a chunk of goodwill, the tepid reception to Andromeda (which was this close to delivering a kill shot to the franchise) and failure of Anthem (which is completely dead in the water and abandoned) - has knocked the once mighty studio back down to Earth. We'll see if they've learned from it with DA 4 and the next Mass Effect.

It's not all bad. SWTOR is still there and has a smaller but active player base, devs who listen and cares reasonably about the community and while updates take a while these days they always deliver new content (even though smaller bites these days).
I personally liked Andromeda, though it wasn't nearly the masterpiece that ME1-3 were. And yes, I consider Mass Effect one of the best gaming trilogies of all time.

I think people are just too critical. I found ME 3 ending adequate not too sure how else you end such a legendary video game series when it was leading up to it. In regards to DA I've haven't had any complaints about the series myself. I enjoyed each and every one of them. Lots of lore and exploring. I was blown away with inquisition ending and choices you made within the game effected everything. Its no secret I like EA I enjoy most of their games but then again I'm not too critical, which goes back to my original statement.

I didn't care for the original ending of ME3, felt rushed and left way too many loose ends. The expanded ending for me was the true ending, and left me feeling satisfied. I view the trilogy as a single game/story, and to me it is probably the most fun/engaged i've ever been with a game.
I never tried Andromeda, but for me that had more to due with being exhausted after the amount of hours I put into the trilogy. Then after its negative reviews and lack of dlc/continuation, I just never bothered.
As for this remaster, while i'm sure it looks stunning, I'll hold off for a hopeful ME4. I'm just not ready to see my Cmdr Shep make the ultimate sacrifice so soon.

Although I looking forward to this remaster , I’m not ready to drop £50 on something before it’s released after Cyberpunk. I’ll see if it’s playable on Xbox using the game pass - it’s on EA Play Ultimate, not the basic which on PC is also on game pass. Or if they do a discount for people who own the whole series and all DLC...

I decided to throw caution to the wind and went ahead with it even though I'd intended to hold off. It's a very hefty 93GB on the preload.

Started ME1 and as always re-did Eden Prime multiple times due to changing character looks and classes. I'm not on the Citadel and I have to say you can feel the difference. ME1 is quite old and it shows but Bioware managed to make the combat slightly snappier and killed the most annoying things (I'm looking at you, sniper rifle sway!)
So far, so good!
