254: These Characters Had the BEST Arc Aug 01, 2026

Show notes

Which squadmate has the best character arc? Which character outside the Normandy has the best development? N7 Legend is joined by the patrons to discuss all this and more.

------------------

P.S. The audio for everyone else - and every sound from my PC - was for some reason doubled on the recording, and I'm not sure why. I tried to fix this in post-production, but unfortunately we would just have had to re-record the entire episode. I'll get it sorted, Spectres - you deserve better. - N7 Legend

Show notes

This is it, the moment we see Garrus become a military leader in his own right, with people who look up to him - and a former commander looking him eye to eye as equals.

252: What if the Quarians NEVER Made the Geth? Jul 31, 2026

Show notes

Hey y'all - first off I am deeply sorry for the delays recently. It has been a real struggle adjusting not just myself but the whole family to the new schedule.

That said, we've got this episode and 2 more all coming out over the next two days. So enjoy the content dump for now - and for the future, I promise to be a better podcast host. Cheers, N7 Legend

-----------------------------------

What if the Quarians never created the Geth? How would the Milky Way have changed? How would the Quarians fit into Citadel space politics? Would the geth still be around as a labor machine class? We discuss all this and more in this week's What If...

248: Creating the Best Class for ME5 | May 2026 Patron Chat Jun 04, 2026

Which "pure" class is the best - Soldier, Engineer or Adept? How about the mixed ones, like Vanguard, Infiltrator and Sentinel? And which of these classes would you bring to the next Mass Effect, or would you create your own?

N7 Legend and Jennasis discuss all this and more with the patrons.
