Mass Effect Andromeda Before we start I'm basing my rating on the initial release of the game as it is a game developers responsibility to launch a complete game. Not giving us a mess and then patching it later. Why did yo... Mass Effect Andromeda

Before we start I'm basing my rating on the initial release of the game as it is a game developers responsibility to launch a complete game. Not giving us a mess and then patching it later.

Why did you do this Bioware? Where did it all go wrong? These are the questions I was asking myself when I first played through this game. The bar was set very high by the first trilogy and all that hype led to a devastating blow to fans worldwide, All that because someone in EA or Bioware corporate could not manage the development properly and wanted to cash it in early.

In Andromeda you play Ryder, and you are participating in the Milky Way's plan B against the Reapers, escape. What if Shepard didn't win? They sure didn't want to be in the Milky Way when that happened so they decided to look to another Galaxy to colonize. Fast forward 600 years and you wake up with everything in disarray and you are under attack by a hostile Alien species and struggle to get everyone in on the program.

You can search elsewhere on how the initial release was a huge fiasco. But I want to focus on the tangible bits for now. The environment and weapon / armor graphics are the best in the series to date. The combat is very satisfying and is one of this games saving graces, with powers and abilities to level the playing field, and the added layer of jumping, and jet-packing around adds another layer of tactics when fighting a wave of.enemies. Exploring planets with your tank is smooth and apart from a few bugs, its actually pretty fun. Inventory management is an issue as the game engine is built for action games, so expect to be digging through a massive crate when exploring your inventory. The side characters are uninteresting and boring, you wouldn't care much about them not like the characters in the original trilogy. The main storyline is good but tends to drag on until it gets to the good parts, like 3 plates of salad on top of a delicious steak.

I am thankful for Bioware fixing the weird, wide eyed facial animations and silly dialogue (my face is tired...really?) and the myriad bugs which were game breaking at times. But with Bioware halting any DLC for now, the skies are looking dark for this franchise.

This is now on sale ranging from $20 - $30 and after downloading the game fixes its an above average game and is a good part of the series to follow.

Questions about Mass Effect Andromeda

Which one shall I buy, Mass Effect Andromeda, or Rise of the tomb raider? I like games which are more of Assassin's creed style. So which of the two has igh graphics, and nice, engaging storyline?

Answer question I have this question too

A: Rise of the Croftventure!

Rise of the Tomb Raider is most likely more your style. It is a fantastic adventure game with a nice mix of combat and stealth mechanics. RotTR also benefits from an engaging story full of believable characters as well as being visually (graphically) incredible.

Mass Effect is also and will always be an excellent choice in my book. The graphics in Andromeda could be better, but even so, remarkable in its own right.

Answer question I have this question too

A: pros and cons

Hi, so you will get longer playtimes out of Bloodborne or Nioh compared to Horizon Zero Dawn. Bloodborne is very difficult, it makes people break controllers and televisions. If you like a challenge but aren't in the mood for something especially story driven buy Bloodborne. Nioh I haven't played but I hear it plays like Bloodborne or darks souls but with a very strong narrative. Horizon is hands down one of the best games i have played in a long time. It has excellent story and gameplay, however you will beat it in about 50 hours. Also it's not especially challenging gameplay but the graphics and characters are amazing.
