We'll have a lot more details for you later this week! Stay Tuned!
As a fan of the Mass Effect series and of Bioware's other titles this comes as something I am not too fond of. Around the web I see others complaining and voicing their opinions that they dislike this DLC for what seems like a few reasons. Firstly they dislike the fact that it is first day DLC, next they are saying that such an integral part of the series (Meeting a Prothean) should not be relegated to a DLC since it should be in the full game.What I dislike about this one argument is that the game has not even released yet, so we are not sure if Bioware has already integrated this character. Maybe instead of the bountiful wealth of knowledge well seem to think this character has, s/he/it may have very little knowledge of their own culture and what happened when their civilization was taken out.
My personal gripe with this content is that it brought the race back, I personally liked the protheans for their mystic and the sense of unknown in their story line. With the pack it may ruin that feeling about this race. I will still get this pack regardless since I'm pumped for this game!
