  • I actually liked ME 3, and for the most part I liked the Citadel DLC. There were a few cringe-worthy moments of blatant fanservice, but it was still really good overall. But one scene was just inexcusably bad. For those who don't know, Blasto was a joke in ME 2 where you'd hear a commercial for a Dirty Harry parody starring a typically well-spoken Hanar. The joke was popular enough to be repeated in ME 3, where you could find a poster for Blasto 6 and listen to clips from the fake film. It wasn't particularly funny, but was still a nice little easter egg. By this point the fandom had made bunch of Chuck Norris style jokes about Blasto and turned him into something of a meme. Kind of dumb, but still just typical fandom stuff. The Dmo S comes when Bio Ware decided to put a scene in the game where Shepard and Javik visit the set of a Blasto movie. Even in a DLC designed to be fanservice, this was particularly awful. Shepard and the actor playing Blasto got into a pissing match, which served only to pointlessly derail Shepard's character into an insecure ass arguing with an B-tier actor. Javik also came off poorly, going from the best new character to an idiot.
