Mass Effect - Timeline (V2.0)

[Megatron]

I remember that some people wanted a remake of the great timeline made by the great @DlrishB, so here we are!

Mass Effect - Timeline

This is the timeline for the Mass Effect universe, based on the video game series by Bioware and its accompanying spin-off material in novels, comics, and mobile games. The main games are in bold underlined black text, the downloadable content for the games is in underlined regular black...

Mass Effect Mission Order: the best sequence to tackle story missions in | RPG Site

The best mission order for ME1... according to us.

www.rpgsite.net

I ALSO WANNA POINT OUT WITH THIS, THAT I'VE ONLY PLAYED THE 1ST GAME (COMPLETED AT 100%), BUT NEVER GET INTO 2,3, ANDROMEDA OR THE EXPANDED UNIVERSE; THO THANKS TO THAT REDDIT POST I'M 100% SURE ON THE TRILOGY, COMICS, REVELATION NOVEL AND ANDROMEDA SECTION ON THEIR PLACEMENT.

CONSIDERING THIS IS A SPOILER-FREE ORDER, HELP WOULD BE APPRECIATED IF YOU THINK THAT SOME OF THESE MEDIA SHOULD BE READ DURING THE GAME LIKE THE COMICS OR SOMEWHERE ELSE TO AVOID SPOILERS.

ALSO WHAT IS MASS EFFECT 3 EXTENDED CUT?

AND THE DETAILED TIMELINE WILL BE DONE SOON!

THANKS IN ADVANCE

Returning to this. I think the simplified order looks best with separating the comics from the rest Do you like it better or was it better before?

I personally liked the previous version more, but I see what you're going for
