... The worldbuilding in The Expanse predates Mass Effect by nearly a decade.

I mean, you come at me with "you're just ripping off Pohl, Heinlein, Le Guin, Bester, and Haldeman," yeah I'm going to fully own that. You come at me with, "You're ripping off mass effect," I am going to roll my eyes so hard they land on my block button.

... But you can draw a direct line from both Mass Effect and The Expanse and a jillion other things straight [b]ack to Fred Pohl. We're all just ripping him off.

Just as I often point out that nothing from Mass Effect is in the Expanse worldbuilding, I don't believe for a second that the Mass Effect guys stole anything from me. We're all just playing with some venerable SF story ideas and tropes.
