The Mass Effect trilogy holds a special place in many gamers’ hearts, with its rich backstory, character development, and epic scale. Seeking to sidestep the consequences (and the controversy) of the Mass Effect 3 ending, Mass Effect: Andromeda literally uproots the action and moves it to another galaxy, while simultaneously leaning heavily on the player’s nostalgia for the series.
A little more time in the oven would've done these products some good a lot sooner.
Sega Saturn made it but not the 360. Don't remember Saturn having a horrid rrod rate. Absolutely horrid
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."
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.
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.
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!
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.
From the review:
'Right up front, I want to say that I was a huge fan of the original Mass Effect trilogy, and as a result was fully expecting not to enjoy Andromeda at all.'

Thanks for at least admitting you were biased before and also paid attention to other reviews and therefore under their influence:
'Have been judged so harshly'
At least the writer seems to have enjoyed it so there's that.
I just wish reviewers would go into a game completely open minded and IGNORE what others think or whatever fuss there may be on the internet. I ve had this feeling for a while that reviewer's position their review vs other reviews and what they expect people want to see.
I love it so far.... I don't care about the "OMG the animations are horrible fiasco" if people are hating it cuz of this than they don't need to be "watching" games they should be playing it.. It has all the flair of a mass effect game and I love it.
i don't care about animations or other design flaws. what breaks the deal for me is that is a 4th part of something. i have never ever played a 4th part of something that was worth my time and money. andromeda is an extremely subpar product tricking gamers into buying by applying a mass effect logo. no one should support such a low approach. even those who claim "this is the bestest game evah". the disqualification of these buyers is beyond words.
