Poll: The villian of the Citadel DLC....WHAT!? (SPOILERS)

[soren7550]

Yeah, having a clone that's out to get you is a bit dumb, but Citadel is just SO GOOD. Yeah, it's a little cheesy and campy, having thrown a bunch of fanfictions and BSN chatter into a blender and got this, but understand that I say that in the best way possible. It's hilarious, it's got great character interaction, there's a bunch of fun side stuff, and you get all your living squadmates back in some form or another.

And, you know, stuff like this:

Alright, who let the fan-fiction authors make DLC?

EA, was it you? I think it was you...

OT: Uh... Yeah, that's pretty silly, even for a sci-fi game

But I thought Jennifer Hepler was writing Mass Effect since the beginning. Or at least since ME2 so the fanfiction has been strong with ME for a long time.

Unlike the OP, I actually found out by playing it. OK so I was NOT expecting that, nor do I find the idea of going to the trouble of growing a living, breathing clone, just to gut it for parts very practical. Cloned organs are feasible and exist in the Mass Effect lore and would be a lot less hassle to create and store.

That said, a hand in a jar giving me the finger would make for a pretty lame antagonist!

It's a shame some folks are passing on perfectly great DLC because someone who hasn't played it is dissing the antagonist (or some other aspect for that matter) without any context to go on. If the ME3 ending didn't sour the entire series for you fire up your gaming rig, do yourself a favor: skip Leviathan and Omega and then buy Citadel. Once you do pick your favorite personalized Shepard and have some campy fun while a sneering antagonist with your hero's face and voice tries to kill you. Then, when you are victorious, play the after party which actually is the best part of the DLC.
