Quite many times the fight stuck meaning the Architect sometimes became invulnerable because it didnt open any of the conduits. Had to restart those fights many times. | ||

Also, finding a bit weird that they're apparently putting in additional homosexual romance option for male Ryder. The whole time people have been complaining about significant issues with the existing content and its presentation, adding even more content seems sort of counterintuitivie at this point. Edit: Apparently not the final patch according to Michael Gamble's twitter. | ||

I think it's kinda amazing that with such a clusterfuck of a development process, the game still came out pretty decent (barring the obvious issues at release). | ||

Obviously these decisions were made before No Man's Sky crashed and burned, but even before that it was very clear how many problems the approach has. It's definitely not something you want to gamble with a franchise build on reputation for strong scifi storytelling and memorable characters. | ||

Pros : the gun play was one of the best in the series Graphics were good Few good decision moments Didn't hate the world and overall story Now my cons : Biggest issue is the good moments drown in a big brown meh, Each planet have 3 monolith and a vault which are long and feel very similar Fetch quests tasks , busy work missions. for each something i wanted to do I had 2 hours of stuff I just didn't Why ? This is no subscription model ? It got to a point I just didn't want to take quests anymore Never happened to me in me universe , and I thinks it's the major thing they went wrong It's like adding 10 hours to a movie with boring unrelated stuff , why ? Too few good moments where your hard decisions matter Too few missions I can say that are at a story level similar to the loyalty missions on the previous episodes I didn't feel connected and related to my companions as before Cora was decent , but I would love another big mission for her to evolve Pheebe started aweful , I hated some of her mission Which was wasting my time, In the end she was endearing , with some good lines Rest , meh not enough happens One related mission , and not a lot of story in it I didn't mind the animation and bugs as were posted so much The antagonist was boring but had hoped for the future It just wasn't my me experience , It was a fun game. But I just want more moments and less fluff Make me care again Hope it help some of you to make an informed decision on playing or not. It's of course my opinion , and the statement I make doesn't try to be objective in any way | ||

On a different note, ANTHEM also uses the FROSTBITE engine and has decent facial animations. Though I could see the same "Ryder-wakeup-grimace" in the guy providing the first quest of the E3 trailer. | ||

Patches have made the game much better but it's just an okay game if you loved Mass Effect i'd get it else it's story is pretty lackluster and it's core gameplay isn't exactly new and exciting. If you never completed a mass effect game i wouldn't buy it you'd probably abandon the game half way though. Unless you like rpgs. | ||

Honestly its a 'good' game and has been since day 1 before any of the patches, it just doesn't live up to the quality of the mass effect franchise. Its combat is A+, and that combined with all other elements being passable is enough to make the game fun to play from beginning to end if you don't let yourself get obsessed with completing every side quest before you finish the main plot. At its worst this game is 'ok' and at its high points it briefly feels like the glory that was ME2 for a short spurts. Overall though, the plot, aesthetic, and characters aren't as unforgettable as the other three games in the series. At least it doesn't end with your choice of mono chromatic explosions though. If you are only interested in playing the game if it is as good as or better than previous Mass Effect games, do not buy Andromeda If you are interested in playing a Mass Effect style game with an improved combat system and don't mind that the story won't match up to previous titles, then you'll be very happy with Andromeda | ||

Leaving a planet (i.e. going home) to check your e-mails. How 1990 is that?! | ||

Agreed that they should have allowed you loading into the ship on the planet. Only mod for it I have found just makes the cinematic much shorter so you save a bit of time on that if you have a SSD or fast computer in general. http://www.nexusmods.com/masseffectandromeda/mods/467/? | ||

The worst things about the story are the things that they leave open at the end. The multi racial ark is confused and are in a crisis with no explanation or info past a single line of dialogue. The benefactor and the initiative founding conspiracy founding story has no payoff and just gets dropped after a while. The main kett race and government is just a dumb explanation for why they're still around in the next game. SAM basically makes the protagonist ilrelevent until the "power of will" solves that issue but this is ever seriously approached past a "I don't want to be racist against an AI". At the same beat were the game unironicaly tell the player that their character doesn't really matter they suddenly matter a ton more now as you're litearly able to deus ex machina a whole fucking fleet out your ass. Even this fleet is worthless because space smoke monster is the thing that actually stops the archons fleet. The Mom is brought up as a nice emotional point but then immediately drooped ignored and you never even see her face. Finally after getting every planet to 100% viability the end game reward is to rename the planet your parent died on to "Ryder-1" except the game doesn't actually do this. TLDR ME:A is the star wars prequels of Video games and i'm now done with this. | ||
