User blog comment:Ygrain/Leviathan: Do you know what you are doing, Bioware?/@comment-5287758-20120906140510

I agree with you Ygrain, though not completely. The Leviathans certainly added a whole new dimension to the ME universe. It changes everything we know abt the universe. I mean, the implications are huge and Bioware decides to make it into a DLC. These "firstborn" Leviathans, the apex predators, the pinnacle of evolution, set in motion(unintentionally) an "experiment" that would change the stability and the course of the galaxy forever. I mean, that's pretty big, much too big for treating it like a sub-plot which is what Bioware did here. Sure that's pretty messed up. But I am also grateful to Bioware for throwing into light the Reapers' origins, rather than forever keeping it in the dark. Sure, their timing's way off, but what they created is impressive. I thoroughly enjoyed the DLC, with its new style of searching, filters and exploration. And that scene with the husk biting Vega was awesome. I was almost on the floor laughing. The new weapon mods are also quite good. That underground talk with Leviathan was really a unique experience. I felt fr removed from the galactic events as I listened to the "firstborn" relate their tales. That was epic.

All in all, despite its atrocious timing, the Leviathan DLC is a success.
