Kusukela kudala, Mass Effect ubelokhu evelele ekuxoxeni izindaba. I-trilogy yasekuqaleni yayinokwehla nokwenyuka kwayo ngasekugcineni kanye neminye imicu yesakhiwo engazange ixazululwe kahle kakhulu, kodwa lezo kwakuyizimpukane ezincane uma ziqhathaniswa nakho konke okunye okufeziwe okulandisayo. Khonamanjalo, ngisho umdlalo njengoba ngokujulile amaphutha njengoba Umphumela weMisa: I-Andromeda ibe nendaba enhle kakhulu engayixoxa, futhi nakuba ukuntuleka kwayo kwabalingiswa abakhumbulekayo noma inani eliphansi ngokushaqisayo lezinhlanga ezintsha zamanye amazwe kwakudumaza, yasebenzisa isisekelo sayo esimaphakathi kahle kakhulu ukuhlanganisa izimfihlakalo ezihlaba umxhwele ngempela.
Akumangazi-ke ukuthi sekunokuqagela okuningi mayelana nokuthi iyiphi inkomba yokulandisa. Mass Effect 4 - noma ngabe yini i-BioWare ekhetha ukuyibiza ngomdlalo olandelayo ochungechungeni - izothatha. Kuyacaca ukuthi umdlalo unjalo iminyaka kude, futhi ngokusekelwe ekutheni kuncane kangakanani esikwaziyo ngakho njengamanje, kuningi nje okusemoyeni ngokuphelele. Kodwa kakade, singakwazi ukuqagela okufundisiwe okusekelwe kulokho okuncane okubonisiwe futhi ngokusekelwe kulokho okwenzeke emidlalweni edlule.
Uma ubulokhu uhambisana Mass Effect izindaba nezingxoxo, kungenzeka ukuthi uyazi kakade eminye yemibono edume kakhulu mayelana negeyimu elandelayo ochungechungeni. Enye yalezi ukuthi izokwenzeka emakhulwini ambalwa eminyaka ngemva kwezehlakalo ze-trilogy yokuqala. Kusuka ku-trailer emfushane kodwa egcwele yamahlaya yomdlalo, kuphephile ukucabanga ukuthi sizobuyela ku-Milky Way kugeyimu elandelayo, futhi lokho kuphakamisa imibuzo ethokozisayo, ikakhulukazi njengoba i-BioWare kucatshangelwe kakhulu ukuthi umdlalo uzohlanganisa izindaba ze-Milky Way kanye nomthala we-Andromeda (thina wenza bona yomibili imithala kuleyo trailer yamazwibela).
Yiqiniso, okuwukuphela kwendlela engenzeka yokwenza lokho kungaba ngokweqa isikhathi. Impela, i-Andromeda Initiative ishiye umthala wethu phakathi kwemicimbi ye Mass Effect 2 futhi 3, kodwa ayizange ifike lapho yayiya khona kwaze kwaba ngemva kweminyaka engamakhulu ayisithupha. Ngakho uma Mass Effect 4 ngempela ifuna ukuhlangana kwemigqa emibili yesakhiwo, kunengqondo ukuthi i-Milky Way kufanele ifinyelele, sikhuluma ngokulandelana kwesikhathi, okusho ukuthi ukweqa isikhathi kudingekile ngempela. Futhi, ngokweqiniso, kungenza umqondo omkhulu nge-BioWare futhi. Ngeke nje kube okujabulisayo ngokulandisayo ukubona isimo somthala isikhathi eside kangaka ngemuva kwe-trilogy yasekuqaleni, kuzosiza futhi umdlalo ukuthi uthole ibanga elanele kulokho okwenzekile ngaphambili ukuthi ungazizwa ubonwa kuzo zonke izinqumo ezenziwa endaweni. trilogy, futhi uyinikeze igumbi lokuphefumula elinobuciko.
Lokho kusho, isinqumo esisodwa esizosenza babe ukuhlala ngakho isiphetho Mass Effect 3. Isikhathi eside, i-BioWare ibilokhu inqikaza ukubiza noma yiziphi iziphetho zomdlalo njengokuphela kwe-canon, futhi leyo bekuyinto abayigwema ngobuhlakani ngokwenza. Umphumela weMisa: I-Andromeda isiqephu esedlule ME3, kodwa wabe esegxumela phambili emakhulwini ambalwa eminyaka emthaleni ohluke ngokuphelele lapho yayingekho indlela yokuqiniseka ngokuphelele ukuthi kwakwenzekeni ekhaya. Kodwa Mass Effect 4 isibuyisela ku-Milky Way, futhi isethwe ngemuva kwe-trilogy yasekuqaleni, okusho ukuthi kuzodingeka ikhethe uhlu olugcina Umphumela Omkhulu 3.
Futhi ngokuqinisekile, i-trailer ibonakala iphakamisa ngokuqinile ukuthi isiphetho se-Destroy yileso i-BioWare ehambe nayo. Kunezinto eziningi ezisikisela lokho. Okokuqala, sibona u-Liara ku-teaser, obukeka emdala kakhulu (u-asari uphila amakhulukhulu, ngisho nezinkulungwane zeminyaka, ngakho-ke kunengqondo ukuthi u-Liara uzobe esekhona ngisho nangemva kokweqa isikhathi okungenzeka). Kodwa ngalé kwalokho, ukubukeka kwakhe ngokomzimba akuzange kushintshe kakhulu. Usewukuphila okuphilayo ayeyikho ku-trilogy yasekuqaleni, hhayi ukuhlanganiswa kwempilo yokwenziwa kanye ne-organic, okusho ukuthi cishe singakhipha ngokuphepha isiphetho se-Synthesis.
Ngaleso sikhathi, bekukhona naleyo Reaper efile ku-teaser, futhi noma kukhona inombolo yezindlela ebingafa ngayo, kubonakala sengathi iphakamisa ukuthi isiphetho se-Destroy yi-canon. Okungaphakamisa imibuzo ethile, yebo- isiphetho se-Destroy siyababulala bonke abavuni, kodwa, kahle, kubhubhisa zonke ezinye izinhlobo zokuphila zokwenziwa emthaleni futhi, okuhlanganisa yonke i-geth, noma yibuphi kanye nabo bonke ubuhlakani bokwenziwa (kuhlanganise ne-EDI) , futhi ngisho noShepard, okuyiqiniso, ingxenye yokwenziwa, ngenxa yeProjekthi kaLazaru, eyambuyisela kwabafileyo Mass Effect 2. Khonamanjalo, ngokungafani neziphetho ze-Control and Synthesis, abavuni nabo abekho ukuze basize abasindile ukulungisa umthala, okusho ukuthi izakhiwo ezibalulekile ezihlanganayo ezifana ne-Citadel kanye nama-relays amaningi zibhujiswa ngokuphelele, noma okungenani zenziwe zingasebenzi.
Pho kwenzakalani ngakho konke lokho phakathi Mass Effect 4 kulandela ukweqa isikhathi? Ingabe ama-relay amaningi aselungisiwe manje? Ingabe ubuhlakani bokwenziwa sebuqale ukuphakamisa ikhanda futhi? Kwenziwa kanjani ukundiza komkhathi kanye nokunqamula emthaleni uma i-mass relays azikho usebenza? Kungenzeka-ke ukuthi isiphetho se-Control siyi-canon- kodwa kukhona okunye ku-teaser okuphakamisa ukuthi mhlawumbe akunjalo.
Ukuthi okuthile ucezu lwezikhali ze-N7 ezicoshwa ngu-Liara, azibuke, bese emamatheka. Okushiwo lapha kucace kakhulu- ukuthi ucezu lwezikhali ezikaShepard, okusho ukuthi uLiara kungenzeka ukuthi uzama ukuzibuyisela ngandlela thize, ukwakheka, noma isimo. U-Shepard uyazidela kukho konke I-Mass Effect 3's iziphetho, kodwa ngenani eliphakeme ngokwanele lamandla ezempi, isiphetho se-Destroy sinaleso sigcawu esisodwa esiphakamisa ukuthi mhlawumbe basindile. Kunjalo, mancane amathuba okuthi uShepard usaphila Mass Effect 4 uma ngempela kukhona ukweqa isikhathi - uShepard ungumuntu, phela akayena u-asari - kodwa mhlawumbe uLiara angase abheke ezinye izindlela zokubabuyisa. Mhlawumbe njenge-AI? Impela kungenzeka.
Umbuzo owodwa omkhulu sonke esinawo ngawo Mass Effect 4 okucishe kungenzeki ukuphendula ngokusobala manje ukuthi, obani abaphikisi abayinhloko abazoba? Okungenani singasho ngokuzethemba ukuthi abavuni ababona ababi futhi- noma ngabe yisiphi isiphetho esithathwa njenge-canon eyodwa, abaselona usongo kumthala ngandlela thize. Ngakho obani amabi amakhulu alandelayo? Uma kubhekwa ukuthi umthala we-Andromeda ngeke uzitshwe phakathi I-Mass Effect 4's indaba, kungenzeka ukuthi i-kett ne-Scourge ziye zafika e-Milky Way, nakuba kwakungekho ngempela inkomba yalokho ku-teaser. Ngaphandle kwalokho, ngicabanga ukuthi i-BioWare ingafuna ikhefu elihlanzekile kuleyo ndaba yalokhu kulandelana, okungenani okuningi ngangokunokwenzeka ngaphandle kokukuziba ngokuphelele. I-Mass Effect 3's uLeviyathani I-DLC iveze ukuthi amaLeviyathani, abadali babavuni, basaphila futhi bayakhahlela lapho, futhi ngokusobala, umjaho owesabekayo usazibona njengowukuphila okunamandla komthala- ngakho-ke mhlawumbe bangabuyela kuwo ukuze babuyise lokho abanomuzwa wokuthi kungokwakho. kubo? Impela kungaba usongo oluthokozisayo, lokho kuyiqiniso.
Ngandlela thize, kunethuba lezindaba eziningi ezithokozisayo ngokulandelayo Mass Effect. Ngokusekelwe kulokho i-BioWare encane esekugcone ngayo mayelana nomdlalo kuze kube manje, i-sequel iyazivulela amathuba athakazelisayo ayimbangela yenjabulo kubalandeli bochungechunge. Futhi, uma kubhekwa ukuthi umdlalo ukude kangakanani ngalesi sikhathi, cishe ngeke sithole ulwazi oluphathekayo lokuthi yini okufanele siyilindele endabeni yawo okungenani iminyaka embalwa. Kepha uma i-BioWare ingakuphazamisi lokhu, Mass Effect 4 ingagcina yenze izinto ezingakholakali ngempela ngendaba yayo.
