Amazon did very well with The Expanse and Fallout, they could pull this off.

With Expanse they kinda just financed the production that was already running, no?

Thougj that's beside the point. Amazon does have some good stuff and while scepticism is warranted, I try to stay a cautious optimist until some bad signs appear.

I feel like they're not very comparable. Production really screwed over Halo in a way that never could have happened to Fallout because of how protective of the IP Todd Howard was. Only time will tell if the same issues plague Mass Effect as did Halo.
