BacklogCritic: "Mass Effect: Andromeda was an unfairly criticized game at it’s release- a lot of people saw the awkward animations and jumped at the chance to rip into it. Hardly anyone talked about the good points, and there are a lot of them, especially now the game has been patched. If Andromeda is still in your backlog, it truly does deserve a second chance."
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
The launch games were all right, but look at how Virtua Fighter and Daytona USA compared to their re-releases.
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 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.
They did but I didn’t realize it until I started reading. That’s just the order they are shown.
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!
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.
There's a reason it reviewed so poorly in the first place... these reasons among others.
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.
I powered through it, myself. It was just repetitive, and the Land Rover Exploration wasn’t interesting at all. The story also we mahhhhhhh.
Its not April 1st anymore
This same website put out an article just 2 months ago with the title, "Why You Should Not Play Mass Effect: Andromeda From Your Backlog. I guess these guys like to double dip just for the sake of having content.
There's enjoyment to be had in Andromeda, albeit with flaws. I'm sure if the series wasn't iced, we'd have grown to love the companions as we did in the trilogy before it.
I finished the game last year. It was good, but it’s not the best really. Most people agree that MEA is the weakest of Mass Effect series. And my god ! EA just made huge mistake for not letting Bioware supporting the game In long run. People were looking MEA Single Player DLC but cancelled by EA.
I actually quite enjoyed this game, yes the story just left some things unfinished and there was bugs here and there ( name a game that has never had any ) which most have been patched out,loading was quite long too and while not as good as Shepards story it did improve on some thing's. The nomad driving was 1 million times better, the jetpacks made for some good fight's and movement. I think these days people just bitch and moan for the sake of it. I found this game to be like Dragon Age Inquesition ( of which i also enjoyed ) but in space. End of the day for the price this is now you can do a hell of a lot worse.
