Hi Guys,

Opinions on this?

I haven't played the first three, but this is a fresh start and visually interesting.

Is someone playing it on a really old CPU?

regards

Oh, this is already out? I didn't realize it. LOL


I'll be getting it eventually. I'll wait for it to be patched a few times first.

Two weeks already :P

I didn't buy any of the first three ME games on release so I'm in no rush to get this one. Having said that, I really enjoyed the first three titles.

Played all the other ones and really liked them. THis new one seems to have a lot of bugs so, like PM, I'm going to wait a while before I buy

Yes, wait.

Although they already stated that they cannot fix the face animations at this point, they are trying to fix the movement glitches, though.

Also, cannot fix a boring, cliched story. I'll wait for the next one.

I'm enjoying the game, 50+ hours in it so far.

You have to wonder WTF they were doing all these years. Collective insanity? No one thought getting these animations right was a priority? Also, what's the deal with making the most choices for romancing possibilities and then pairing it with the ugliest set of companions seen in an RPG since the 90s?

I still have Fallout 4 and Skyrim SE to play before I'd think about this one. I also have only played through ME1-3 once each, might want to play them all again first, too.

I have put about 10 hours into it. It just isn't drawing me into the game like the first 3 MEs did. It's not even the horrible animations and the cold dead eyes of the characters...its just the writing and story is so horrible.

Overall I would say it is a very average game. Like 6 or 7 out of 10 at best. This is in comparison to the first 3 MEs where I would say are 9s.

Ok, I haven't watched the entire 20 minute video but the few minutes I've seen so far have been both hilarious and depressing.


It really is amazing how they screwed up like that.

I have no idea WTF that is supposed to mean. Ugly people aren't represented enough in games?
I don't need to see more, I can go to Walmart for that.

I found it cheap and since I never got into the first three I figured if I want modern GFX that's a good fresh start...

I don't have any other Scifi-Game installed right now so that's a bonus too.

Anyone running it on an older CPU? That's my biggest worry.

have about 40hours in it.

The 1st trilogy was/is phenomenal, you should/must play it.

Andromeda is less action packed. So far I like it, but its not on par with the others. Its way more focused about exploration than action.
I have encountered some minor bugs, but nothing huge so far. There's a patch coming this Thursday that should help.

Graphically its beautifull, but not 2017 beautifull.... seems to be about the same as ME3 wich is ok but it's not on the same lvl as Witcher3,


So far I would say a 7/10 (I consider ME1-2-3 10/10)


I would suggest to play the 1st 3, and by the time you have finished Andromeda sould be more polished + you'll get some reference to those games

Enjoyed the first one, slightly-less-enjoyed the second one, and made it halfway through the third one. No rush to get this.

Did you play the third one when it was first released or did you wait until it was updated with the much better alternate endings?

If he only made it halfway through, he didn't see any of them regardless.

Bioware announces first major patch and promises you will get a good game....eventually.

I think it's safe to say that this debacle is 100% the fault of EA. EA is infamous for driving the whip to get games done within unrealistic development times regardless of how many bugs may still be present.


As I said before, I'm in no rush to get the game.

By the way, that statement is not an apology. Bioware is simply acknowledging that the game has some issues and that they will be addressed with future patches.
