So I just finished the first Mass Effect yesterday and I'm interested in the expanded media of the franchise.
When is the best time to read/watch each one?
Apparently the first novel was released before the game. Did I make a mistake not reading it before playing? For the novels I understand Deception is non-canon nonsense but I still want to read it for fun anyway. So should I read the first two novels before Mass Effect 2 and the final two novels after 2?
Revelation, Ascension, Retribution and Deception:
Do the two Mass Effect Omnibuses have all of the comics? Once again read order compared to games would be appreciated. Should some be read at specific points in the games?
Omnibus 1:
Includes: Redemption, Incursion, Inquisition, Evolution, Conviction, Invasion, and Homeworlds.
Omnibus 2:
Includes: Foundation, He Who Laughs Best, and BlastoEternity is Forever.
The animated movie should be watched before 3 right?
Paragon Lost:
I know that both the mobile games are unavailable. For Infiltrator since it was released on android is it still possible to get the APK and play it on my phone? Otherwise I guess I'll YouTube both. Galaxy before 2 and Infiltrator before 3.
Mass Effect Galaxy:
Mass Effect Infiltrator:
Also should I read Nexus Uprising before, after or during Andromeda?
Nexus Uprising:
An overall order would be greatly appreciated.
Also what thoughts do you have on the various extra pieces of media? What's the best and the worst? What do you think they did well and what did they offer that the games didn't.
Thanks for any responses.
