femShep! This is probably weird, but I still think about her, as though she were a friend who moved away or something, and I played those games like six years ago. That would never happen with a first person game.

I resent this narrative that “nobody liked it”. Many people did. For my part, as well as for anyone I have actually spoken to about it, the lingering feeling is “They made another one, and it was great! Can’t wait for the sequel!”.
