Is this the accessible sci fi universe that can get non sci fi fans into the genre like Game of Thrones did for non fantasy fans or is it just another generic military video game?

The aliens look way cooler than the aliens in Star Trek or Star Wars. Despite all the futuristic tech there are no planet destroying weaponry aka "Death Stars".

If it is not Mass Effect then what kind of space opera would breath new life into the genre and gain the attention of non SF fans?

I think, the Expanse is really well done.

You are obsessed with this. I can tell you right now NOTHING is going to make me a SCI-FI fan. It is just not my thing. Maybe you need to find a message board dedicated to Sci-Fi to share your obsession with.

Mass effect while an amazing game one of my favorites will not translate into films. And you can't force anyone to like any time of genre.

He should check out the book: Confessions of a Domestic Failure.

A belated welcome to the dis, RCR.

And what's up with the high achieving sporty people only liking reality TV?

My response to the title of this thread - what the heck is Mass Effect? Not into sci-fi, not a gamer. Don't care.

Can you go find a sci-fi board? I'm sure there are plenty out there.
