Think and Ramble

I dont get why people post those little blurbs about how ME changed from game to game. 

Like,

ME1: Everything was bla

ME2: Everything was bleepbloop.

And like, that’s supposed to be eye opening or I dont know.  
Games CHANGE.  If ideas or philosophies or characters or targets or goals didn’t change, whats the point of there being a new game.  Canon can change as the timeline continues, situations evolve… new information changes old ideas. 

Okay, just me being a wet blanket.  And being thinky while I dont enjoy being across the country visiting family for my brothers wedding this weekend.
