BW’s Saturday Article Link> Amazon’s Mass Effect Series Not Directly Adapting The Games

I should be clear, as I only have so much room to make a decent headline. The new Amazon series will take place in the same universe as the Mass Effect games. It just won’t adapt the games themselves due to having a limited but existing character creation system that alters your experience. Marvin Montanaro, writing for Geeks & Gamers, discusses why this might be a good idea given how the games work, so long as the usual modern Hollywood nonsense of slapping a brand name people like onto a completely original story that they don’t. Besides, there is plenty of expanded universe potential even if you call out a non-Shepard character like the Dark Horse comic this comes from did.
