Good lord, BioWare, how long will you make us wait? Between really vague and annoying employee tweets, game expo appearances that feature nothing but concept art, and a disappointingly short CG trailer, we've been shown next to nothing of Mass Effect: Andromeda.
If you hadn't noticed, the 7th of November, otherwise known as N7 Day to Mass Effect fans, isn't too far away. Many intergalactic enthusiasts have been hoping for some sort of news regarding the next game in the series, but the developer's gone ahead and crushed any flicker of hope.
Posting on the official BioWare blog, the studio states that it has plenty planned for N7 Day, including livestreams and community spotlights, but it has no intention of sharing any new information on Mass Effect: Andromeda. However, it does write that it has some surprises up its sleeve - do we dare dream of a remastered trilogy?
So what do you think? Have we waited more than long enough for some decent info, or are we just impatient? Dust off your N7 armour in the comments section below.

Bit of a joke at this point. The employee tweets make it even worse.
"Great development meeting today - the game is looking amazing "
Sickening.
They'll throw a few scraps, maybe some pics.
A remastered trilogy would be amazing. Day one purchase.
Remastered trilogy please. I just cant believe how little we know of andromeda at this time, and how sparingly the information is being doled out.
You'd have to imagine their planning a remaster trilogy to be released next summer as part of the advertsing push for Mass Effect: Andromeda, similar to the Uncharted collection before Uncharted 4
EA said no to remasters, let's hope Mass Effect is the exception. That would be cool.
@LieutenantFatman yeah I think EA can make an exception for mass effect. I think it would be unwise to not make money of a remastered trilogy that would help build hype in the pre-launch marketing.
"do we dare dream of a remastered trilogy?"
Dream? Seems more like a given.
Was the Mass Effect trilogy on sale for $5 recently on PSN for PS3? I just remembered I may have purchased it but never downloaded it. Is the first hour slow going on a random planet shooting random unknown aliens, or was that a different game?
Maybe I am suffering from senile dementia?
It is weird the way they're treating this game. If it was still on track for 2016, you'd think we'd have seen more of it by now. Maybe they want to do a big blow out next year and say, "It's out in this holiday." Just seems odd - it's been announced for years now.
There is no remastered series I want more so it won't happen. Story of my life...
Yea, I'm kinda worried for this title. We still have absolutely nothing. Maybe they regret announcing it this early now and wait 'till E3 to do a Fallout. I don't know.
ive never played ME so I can wait, It has no effect on me.
It has been announced so we know they are working on it. Thats basically all I need to know.
@Neolit Can't bring myself to do it, I keep telling myself that one day I will go back for the Insanity playthrough of ME2 (the only thing I have left to plat the game). In reality though, it's probably never going to happen...
I'd be happy to see an announcement for a ME remastered trilogy game! But in terms of updates on Andromeda I can wait!
@SteveButler2210 - I have the Plat for each Mass Effect game. They are probably my favorite Platinum trophies. Not so much because of difficult but because I adore the series and was determined to get them.
I love how they say no to remasters but basically publish the same sport games every year updating the roster and the team uniforms...I'd gladly buy a remastered trilogy and become an hikikkomori, EA.
Probably was announced way too early. On top of that, I can't help but be anything other than nervous about the direction this game will take. The original was one of the best RPGs last-gen, then EA got its grubby hands on the series and turned it into an average TPS. Fricking MS. That company will spend money on stupid sh*t like $50 mil, timed-exclusive Grand Theft Auto IV expansions but it couldn't just lock up Bioware, which did it's best work with MS as the publisher? Annoying. Still like the Mass Effect universe though so I want this new game to be awesome. Just can't help but wonder what could've been.
I would think it is pretty safe to assume a ReMASStered Effect Trilogy is in the works. Just a great set of games, and a great story to go along with it. EA said they dont want to do remasters, doesn't mean one of their subsidiaries like BioWare wont do it. All I ask is if they do, let blue point do the work.
@SonyInfinity - I would freak out if they announced Blue Point was remastering it haha. It would be so awesome...
Dang it but a remaster of the Trilogy would be great!
