RIP the next Mass Effect. :<
It's not like Mass Effect was known for it's story and writing.
First two were good, 3 was, well...
They canned the writers from 1 and 2 and promoted this goober who said that "Twilight was good writing" to finish the 3rd game.
Which is why we go from having Shepard being such a badass the Reapers tried to make a reaper version of humans, to all of a sudden being all PTSD about shit.
That's the worst writing change you can think of? That Shepard is finally showing signs of ~~indoctrination~~ PTSD?
There's so much more to the 3rd game's narrative that they messed up, PTSD isn't even on the map.
I didn't say it was the worst writing change I can think of?
True, I'm just shocked you'd use that as the comparison to why 3 was bad lol
