Mass Effect: Andromeda official thread

[Lou Cypher]

This has been on my list for quite awhile. The reviews have kind of scared me, but from what i can tell its only the first couple chapters thats been reviewed. Big fan of the series though, i might wait for IC folks reactions before i buy, if its getting bad reactions then I will probably just buy Horizons.

Naw I'm still angry over mass effect 3 ending

Took my time creating my twins last night so I could jump right in today. Gonna take a break from Zelda and just play all weekend.

I'm hearing that if you like mass effect then you'll love this one

 

[Lou Cypher]

Thats good, anyone know if there is some sort of multiplayer on this one?

ME3 had multiplayer, i wasnt too crazy about it though. Co Op campaign would be dope af though. Especially if they got massive boss fights you could co op.

Game is receiving mixed opinions. You should get Horizon anyway. It's a new standard in the genre with the best gameplay and controls for an open world game. It's challenging too.

As for ass Effect

This is why you can't go by a game just because it's an older franchise. People are saying this game is worse than ME3, which was garbage. This may be worse than Final Fantasy 15. EA has ruined Bioware. They will never deliver another ME2, one of my favorite games from last generation. Make what you will of it. In the end it's up to you.

 

[StoneColdMikey]

ME3 wasn't garbage at all. Don't put your feelings for the ending mistake the whole game .

 

[BigBallsNoWorries]

Those facial animations look awkward as fuck

 

[themadlionsfan]

Mass Effect 3 was far from garbage

 

[lord nemesis]

Reviews so far are confirming my suspicions. Apparently it's mediocre as hell.

 

[StoneColdMikey]

Most polarizing game. I never seen a game go from 9.5 in one review and another as 5.5. One review I read said it was great story, another said it was bland lol

 

[achewon87]

The game looks ok when shooting and exploring but convos look horrible. This game could have used another 6 months of polish for the animations sake, maybe it would have helped...

No rush, deep deep sale for me...

Shame was looking forward to next gen ME. Nioh, Horizon & Nier are all piff tho...

 

[Lou Cypher]

Ah man i forgot about Nier, i need to go get that.

I too didnt think ME3 was trash, i played the hell out of it. That ending made me hate the game though haha. I enjoyed it till the end.

 

[StoneColdMikey]

So far, this is mass effect lol

My first gripe was how cartoony the male presets looked, the awful job they did with the facial hair, and the afro.... looked like a damn clown wig. The customizer in me3 was way better and lore friendly. So, after almost making a female character, im glad to say that my male Ryder came out good in the end. He actually looks the part and the in-game graphics of the customized face are a lot better.

Animation has some problems, nothing game breaking, although it is jarring at times. Story wise, hard to say just now. I like the idea of starting exploring a new system, but maybe they should of been more mysterious about who the bad guy is.

 

[lord nemesis]

Wound up getting this shit for free so I'll check it out after work today.

"Go Here, Push Button." First few hours are brutal so far

 

[lord nemesis]

lol the Nexus the poor man's Citadel

 

[KnowReasonForPeace]

From what ive read so far the animation and a few glitches make the game hard to enjoy. A patch is coming but no date is set for when itll be released. Im loyal to the franchise so i had to buy it good or bad.
