The original looks better than day one patch. She looks more feminine than the one on the left.

TheOneWhoIsTornApart2607d ago

The one on the left is the original.

UCForce2606d ago (Edited 2606d ago )

I see.

zeal0us2606d ago

My gawd the one on the left looks like Shrek's daughter.

Nitrowolf22606d ago (Edited 2606d ago )

GUYS THE DAY ONE PATCH IS APPLIED ALREADY, THE FACE ON THE LEFT IS THE DAY 1 PATCH. The article states this with its sources
This also says the current digital versions are patched versions.

apparently its a glitch when creating another ryder (male, then female), for whatever reasons some of the male ryders features transfer, notice her eyes went from blue to brown?

MasterCornholio2606d ago

@Nitro

So it's a bug that turns the main character into a transexual?

Ok........

donthate2606d ago

@cornholio

It is a bug that made the character better!

The original is the one on the left. The new face is the one on the right.

I actually think the new one looks better. She doesnt have that creepy look to her as much. The original had that super wide mouth and giant cheeks. It's still far from great, but it's a big improvement.

Nitrowolf22606d ago (Edited 2606d ago )

No, the day one update is on the left, as in the "new" one. The one on the right was captured from the stream, unpatched.

Also, apparently this is a bug that happens when you create a male ryder and then a female one, notice how some of the features from the male ryder defualts are there? Blue eyes are now brown?

tigertron2606d ago

They made her ears smaller too.

AnubisG2606d ago

Agreed! Looks so much better now. Why couldn't they make her look like this on the first place instead of that ugly monster that's on the left? I don't get it. The game got a lot of hate because of the ugliness of this character.

freshslicepizza2607d ago

the game i played in the demo was the one on the left, hopefully the one on the right is coming.

Nitrowolf22606d ago

No you are right, the one on the left is taken from the patched build EA early access, whereas the on the right is from a french stream, unpatched, but also potentially a bug that occurs when creating multiple ryders

joab7772606d ago

No way! The one in the right is better. But I wonder if it affects the character creation at all!

O.o the mágico of digital diet and exercise 🤷‍♀️

I really don't understand how the facial animations ended up so bad. I mean even the eyes? They couldn't add some f****** water to them? It's like someone put a blow dryer to them.

Really disappointed. I hope the rest of the game is decent.

Why do you hope the rest is decent? I hope you aren't planning on buying this mess?

(NiteX) Yes, and if you like ME, don't buy it!

PlayableGamez-2606d ago

Thank god they got rid of those ugly Botox lips

2606d ago
KiloDaGreat2606d ago

No, the one on the right is the pre-patch Face. After the patch she looks like she does on the left, hence why no has seen the pre-patch face because everyone is playing the Xbox one EA access version which comes patched already

2606d ago
KRUSSIDULL2606d ago

I can confirm this play on EA Access it looks like the one the left

dadavis19922606d ago

IMO it's a huge improvement over the original

Sega Saturn made it but not the 360. Don't remember Saturn having a horrid rrod rate. Absolutely horrid

The launch games were all right, but look at how Virtua Fighter and Daytona USA compared to their re-releases.

Mass Effect Companions, Ranked from Worst to Best

From Xfire: "BioWare's Mass Effect franchise took gamers on a fascinating universal sci-fi journey that will never be forgotten. While fighting against the ever-looming threat of the Reapers was central to Mass Effect's storyline, what made the series so iconic was its vast and diverse cast of characters.

Not only do these companions accompany Commander Shepard as you make your way through hell and back, but, throughout your journey, you also get to learn who these characters were and are and what they think about what it is that you are doing. Some will even fall in love with you, and others will even become your enemy based on your decision."

sourOG1091d ago

When I looked at the list I thought they were saying Garrus was the worst lol. And tali being so far down the list was fighting words for me. But the numbered list is just the order they are shown so you are forgiven.

CYALTR1090d ago

I think they listed them from worst to best. Also keep in mind that this includes Andromeda characters that aren't part of the remastered trilogy. Interesting refresh on the characters though.

sourOG1090d ago

They did but I didn’t realize it until I started reading. That’s just the order they are shown.

Knightofelemia1091d ago (Edited 1091d ago )

I couldn't stand Miranda I could never like her as a character and I always skipped Jacob and James. I always liked Grunt, Jack, Legion, Tali, Garrus, Samara, Liara, Wrex, Edi, Zaeed, Kasumi I always use these characters. Using Martin Sheen as the Illusive Man just fits the character like using Keith David as Admiral Anderson was another good choice always feels like Goliath from Gargoyles is yelling at you which I like.

Rebel_Scum1090d ago

Kinda weird having a question mark at the end of that sentence?

Soy1089d ago

Garrus is best space bro.

Mass Effect: Andromeda in 2021

Zahi AR. from Link Cable Gaming writes “Welcome back Link Cable Gaming fans, with me in andromeda. Specifically, Mass Effect: Andromeda in 2021. With the recent announcement of Anthem shutting down its future plans, I wanted to look at another recent BioWare game. My switch to a PlayStation 5 destroyed my save file right while I was at the end. So, I decided to do a fresh start on the new console to see just how well (or not) it’s been since launch. How has the new generation of hardware treated the game that fell from grace? Should you play Mass Effect: Andromeda in 2021? Let’s find out.”

Such a good game! It got a 4K X1X upgrade and it looks fantastic! Also like the story! Was playing it again before Series X dropped. Going to download it for the Series X, as soon as I have more room on my HD. Playing too many other games right now.

Instant resume is AMAZING! I can Switch between 5 games in seconds. Like 10 to 15 at the most! No closing a game and opening another one! Thank you Microsoft!

giovonni1156d ago

It’s was decent to me. I didn’t feel the magic I felt when I played two or even three. I don’t know. It was repetitive, and the worlds felt bland.

jeromeface1156d ago

There's a reason it reviewed so poorly in the first place... these reasons among others.

anast1156d ago

I had a lot of fun with this game, but I haven't played 2 or 3 yet.

giovonni1155d ago

2 was wonderful, three was just as good as two the ending though 🤦🏾‍♂️

Wintersun6161155d ago

I finally gave it a go last autumn and was amazed by how bad a game can be. And believe me my expectations were low. After 10ish hours I just had to give up.

giovonni1155d ago

I powered through it, myself. It was just repetitive, and the Land Rover Exploration wasn’t interesting at all. The story also we mahhhhhhh.
