Whats weird, is that in some of the reviews, like the Gamespot review, it actually reads pretty good, and the reviewer seemed pretty upbeat about it, and then gave it a 6.
[PC Game] Mass Effect 4 - Andromeda : My Face is Tired but the MP isn't
- Thread starter Jay
- Start date
I was riding the hype train... then I remembered that I never buy anything new (because I'm poor), and I tend to benefit from patches and whatnot after the fact.
So I might just hold off, after all.

I wonder whether or not facial animations will actually be patched, though. It seems like an odd thing to patch. Obviously they COULD patch it, but will they?
I am still so amused that Breath of the Wild is the benchmark people are grading games on.

I think what happened is that Nintendo approached open world with fresh eyes instead of copy pasting what every developer believes must be in open world.
I think so too. Nintendo's insulation is sometimes a problem, like with their hardware and online capabilities, but this was definitely a case where it shielded them from the Ubisoft style of bullshit.
Even though Nintendo was like "We need fucking towers!"
I think they did for vantage point purposes. This is about a fifth of the towers you'd get for the same area in an Asscreed game. Plus paraglider.
Yep, those towers are awesome just for the paragliding alone.
That guy is an imbecile. Benchmark should be Witcher 3.[DOUBLEPOST=1490219352,1490219262][/DOUBLEPOST]
Oh neat.
So fun facts, looks like the shitastic launch scared a bunch of people away who were pining for game weeks ago. Some of these are friends I was playing ME3 Platinum games with.
Fuuuuuuu
Witcher 3 is the better story based open world game. BotW fucking owns it for joy of exploration though.That guy is an imbecile. Benchmark should be Witcher 3.[DOUBLEPOST=1490219352,1490219262][/DOUBLEPOST]

The really frustrating thing about ME:A is it's not a bad game. There's a good game under there, I can see it, even with the cheesy writing. But it's buried under technical mess, and a UI designed by people who have never played a video game before.
It's the studio's first game, and it kinda shows

I've put in about 30+ hours on SP/MP.
MP is better than ME3 and worth every penny. It's buggy to some degree (crashes/sound issues) but I assume patches next week will improve things. They already added a new free character and new free map.
SP is quirky at times, some secondary characters have shitty animations but with updated drivers I've had a almost perfect gameplay of about 12 hours so far. One crash. Some minor bugs here and there but it's good. Storyline is satisfactory so far. EOS is nice. Honestly, overblown drama so far.

I was actually kind of amused by this scene, because social awkwardness is real.
Did the voice actors not have a director? Social awkwardness explains the writing, but not the delivery. That was terrible.
Played more and more and it's just such a flawed game, full of consolitis. Seriously, consoles are like a virus. How did this menu/quest system get approved for PC it's so laborious it's insane.
Also, what's up with the long ass load animations between space exploring, the first system was GREAT, then OK, now I'm angry I can't press space.
Lastly, about the score.... I haven't been impressed at all. ME 1/2/3 are all on my phone and I hear them all the time.... I can't seem to find one track in Andromeda that interested me. But I'll give it more time.

I've come to a new conclusion. I no longer think the animations or the dialogue are what is going on here. I think Sara Ryder is just autistic. In fact, I think everyone on the crew is autistic. I think the Andromeda Initiative was just an evil plot to shoot all of Earth's autistic people into space.
