Sovereign's shields were down after Shepard beat Kermit. Even a Reaper is fair game without shields. Otherwise conventional weaponry can't even scratch Reaper shields. In ME3 it's mentioned 3 dreadnoughts with thanix cannon (based on reverse engineered Reaper tech) can destroy a Reaper dreadnought. Reaper destroyers land on planets, which weakens their shields, making it possible to take them down with two shots from the Cain or orbital strikes.

How long is the game?

I guess I'll hold off my NG+ then.

Why is Mike "Something Awesome" Laidlaw still in charge?

It seems to be kind of a sleeper hit right now.

Death Knights of Krynn Come now who wouldn't recognize the mighty Lord Soth?

Found some really cute Skyrim cartoons

There's another game being developed that uses the Dark Eye setting, The Dark Eye: Demonicon. A Witcher clone, where originally it had been a Diabloesque game.

Casey Hudson reviewing the ME3 ending:

There was Return to Krondor and Betrayal at Antara. And as much as I love BaK I doubt you can make a remake work as modern wrpg. It simply had no place for the choice and customization that (supposedly) are essential today. Betrayal in Antara takes place in another world, Return to Krondor takes place in Midkemia but is not a true sequel either. The true BaK sequel was actually in development, called "Thief of Dreams", continuing the story of Owyn. Sierra wanted to make quick money, canceled this project and went for Betrayal in Antara (a good game, but hardly a BaK). Neal Hallford and John Cutter left long before Betrayal in Antara was out. As for Return to Krondor, same story. Sierra wanting to make a quick buck and rushed the game out of the door. Halford and Cutter actually worked as consultants for this game, but hardly any of their material was even used. So basically, even in the "golden era of video games" publishers screwed developers over.

At least the terrible endings divert attention from the rest of the weak plot.

There's talk about a Betrayal at Krondor remake. Would prefer a true sequel to Betrayal at Krondor, though, but the problem is Activision holds the IP.

At least with an Elder Scrolls MMO it is more believable that it could kill WoW, considering Skyrim's success and the constant clamour for multiplayer on Bethesda forums.

There are many examples of writers making it up as they go (Stephen King's Dark Tower cycle, Wheel of Time, Song of Ice and Fire, even Lord of the Rings), it's just a matter of writing talent and priorities. The entirety of ME2 was basically a waste of a game, focusing so much on characters that the overall plot got completely lost and was never furthered. Hence, enter the MacGuffins and Deus ex machina in ME3.

Mass Effect 3: Broken Earth

There are now also rumours of a Elder Scrolls MMO

Anachronox is released on GoG, play eeeeeetttt. Best sci-fi RPG of all time. Mass Effect only wishes it could be this good, ripping off half its content in vain.

I wonder what took them so long. Since Hasbro, WotC, Atari and EA are all involved, it probably took years of careful harassment to get them all on board. Diablo 3, May 15.

Patch 1.5 (beta) is out

First feature of enhanced edition: improved and fully integrated Saerileth mod.

The game has a pretty cool Dirty Dozen vibe to it. That burning zeppelin level was awesome. Sean is also a great, no-nonsense, genuine badass protagonist compared to that dull grunt Shepard or that clueless idiot Hawke. The 40s music and authentic cars are also pretty awesome. Never forget.

Santorum is that nutter presidential candidate from Stephen King's "The Dead Zone".

Never forget. (ending spoilers)
