Omega in ME3?

[pyrokitten77]

I'll put this under a cut in case there are some peeps who haven't finished ME3 yet.

No official talk. But I think pretty much everyone expects it.

I am kinda meh about it. On one hand I would be epic if done well, and I would love to be able to hang out on Omega once more.
On the other hand, it feels kinda pointless due to the endings, but then again, there are three gardenworlds close to the system, though one of them is an Elcor world, and the other is filled with biotic alien grizzly bears.

Huh, actually, having Aria fighting biotic alien grizzy bears would be rather cool.

'biotic alien grizzy bears'

What am I forgetting?!

There is a planet in a system close to Omega (can't remember the name) Where a group of race in the far past had an epic space battle.
The ships crashed on the planet, and the immense amount of Element Zero mutated the native wildlife until it evolved into biotic super predators.

[itches]

Ah, found it. Eingana.

Yeah, nothing official, but if they don't, won't lie, I'll be a little disappointed. First the comics, then the pointed revenge planning in ME3...it should lead somewhere in particular.

And I adore Aria to teensy weensy bits, so getting her as a squaddie would be AMAAAAAAAZINNNNNG! (I am imagining her to be some sort of super!Vanguard, with ALL THE ADEPT POWERS as well as the Vanguard ones.)

Part of me is excited, but an even bigger part thinks 'Why Bother?' Isn't the Omega 4 Relay close to Omega? I can see poor Aria, killing the last Cerberus trooper, looking out a window and seeing the relay blowing up, and the last thing out of her mouth would be , 'Crap...'

But it's pretty much been confirmed that the relays didn't explode ala Arrival. It was a pulse of energy that shut them down.

If that was Jessica Merizan who said that, though, I would take that with a giant, heaping grain of salt. She's said before that she doesn't actually know more about the development/behind the scenes things than we do and has admitted that everything like that she says is merely conjecture/how she interprets it.

[rose_in_shadow]

Mmm, no, I'm pretty sure it wasn't Jessica Merizan. It was in one of the interview things recently. Maybe the Patrick Weekes one or the Pax thing. Can't remember.

But in any case, I never took it to be Arrival-esque explosions anyway. The game's own cinematics show that. Otherwise, Shepard wouldn't have lived and the Normandy crew wouldn't look so un-crispy as they step out onto Jungle World. Pretty sure that if the devs had intended it to be a BANG-everyone-dies ending, it would have been a lot more evident.

I'm sure there will be DLC. But it's not interesting anymore with RGB endings.

[lilchickadee]

There's been nothing officially announced, but, as others have said, it was so heavily foreshadowed that I can't imagine them not doing it.

But, also as others have said, there's really not a point for it anymore, either.
