Mass Effect 3: Fanservice

Wait, sorry, typo up there. I'm being told the actual title of the DLC is "Mass Effect 3: Citadel". Sorry for the error.

 

But anyways, since it was getting good reviews and it's the final DLC for Shepard's trilogy, I grabbed Citadel earlier today and played through the main story (there's a good amount of post-story stuff too.)

 

It's... kind of weird. The whole thing has an air of festivity to it, so if you're looking for some great revelation about the Reapers, this really isn't for you. But it is a lot of goofy fun - everyone involved was clearly just playing off the fact this was the last hurrah for the characters. There's constant one-liners, tons of character interaction, and a main plot so silly it could've been lifted from a Saturday morning cartoon. I was laughing a lot as I played it.

 

That said, as a piece of gameplay it's really not too shabby - the main missions are interesting gameplay-wise and take place in some cool new locations, and it adds some neat features like a combat arena that lets you fight with ME2 squadmates.

 

Though, really, if you're still making up your mind: Wrex is in the party, and you get to see him in formal wear. Who could ask for more?

You can tell Bioware was just having leagues of fun with Citadel. Rob and I are laughing and cringing simultaneously and it's incredible.
