Mass Effect's Among Us Mod Is The Only Way I Want To Play It

It's rare that I write about mods here at TheGamer. Sure, we have features about playing Skyrim as a mudcrab, or news on the Binley Mega Chippy in Elden Ring, as well as weekly mod round-ups, but mods just aren't for me. I'm a console gamer most of the time, and that means while I get the benefit of playing on my TV, sitting on my sofa, never having to fiddle with any settings, and just generally having a much more relaxed time, it also means no mods for you.

In the first game, we don't even fight it, we merely see it and take out Saren. In the second, we stop a human-shaped Reaper from being built. We've never really
