Normandy FM

It's finally time. The Reapers are here. Season 3 begins with the longest episode yet, where we discuss Mass Effect 3's improved combat, The Kid, and the canonical sexual tension between Kenneth's Shepard and Kaidan. Also on the docket, we talk about how Kaidan and Ashley differ from one another, meet up with Liara, and talk about whether or not we buy into the Indoctrination Theory.

Enjoy the show!

We have one more stop to make in Mass Effect 2, and it's a fairly underwhelming DLC. While Arrival does have a somewhat interesting lead in to ME3, much of the mission feels relatively ordinary in the face of some of ME2's better missions. We also end the show talking about how our favorite Mass Effect characters rank up with our favorite characters in video games.

It's finally time. We've got the crew, upgraded the ship, and unshackled an AI. It's time for the Suicide Mission. Eric and Kenneth go through the Omega-4 Relay for one final push against the Collectors. It's time to make some life and death calls, save the crew, and hopefully get everyone out in one piece.

SDGC's John Phipps comes aboard Normandy FM to discuss two of the best and most important loyalty missions in Mass Effect 2. Tali and Legion's loyalty missions have far-reaching consequences over the entire galaxy, and we're here to talk about how these characters set up some of the most important decisions of the trilogy.

It's time to reunite with Liara for a mission as we aid her quest to take down the Shadow Broker. We talk how Mass Effect 2's DLC helped set a precedent for Bioware's post-launch content, a redeeming romance for Liara, and how we feel about the reveal of the Shadow Broker.

To cap off the show, we talk about Kotaku's report on Anthem's troubled development and Bioware's very bad response.

It's a short one this week, as we talk about Mass Effect 2's DLC squadmates and how the game does them dirty. Both Kasumi and Zaeed get the short end of the stick when it comes to dialogue, but one of them definitely fairs better than the other.

This week we're taking a break from dealing with the Normandy crew's personal problems to deal with issues that are affecting the galaxy at large as we speak. Which basically means we've got some critical plot missions to clean up before the Suicide Mission. This week we're headed to two unsettling destinations: an abandoned(?) Collector's ship and a derelict Reaper. Nothing bad ever happens from sneaking into an enemy vessel, right? Enjoy the show!

IGN's Cassidee Moser stops by to talk about two emotionally heavy loyalty missions. Both Samara and Thane have some unfinished business with their children, and one ending is definitely going to be happier than the other. We talk about the questionable implications of Morinth's predatory ways, how Thane embodies Mass Effect's tonal shift, and maybe get some hot takes from a cat...again.

Noted Turian Enthusiast Natalie Flores drops by Normandy FM to talk two of her favorite Mass Effect characters: Miranda and Garrus.

In part 3 of our Loyalty Mission episodes, we talk the political implications of Miranda's saving her sister, Garrus' stagnant but meaningful role in Mass Effect 2, and find out Eric's cat is actually his third eye.

It's a rough week aboard the Normandy as we go see what's up with Jacob's dad and Jack's past. Jack is divisive between our hosts, but Kenneth and Eric come together to roast the life out of of Jacob Taylor and Bioware's portrayal of him and his loyalty mission. Also, if you hadn't heard, Bioware has a new game out and Kenneth has beaten it. We round the show out with some talk about the state of Anthem.

Enjoy the show!
