OFFICIAL Mass Effect: Andromeda (Discussion)

i think they will still continue the story even if isn't with Ryder as main character.

im expecting a bunch of dlcs for this one and i think i already know what the first content dlc is going to be lol.

What's your guess?

Oh yea, as the quote in the article said they don't know where this is going, but the main storyline for Andromeda is complete.

I hope not, EA isn't exactly friendly with DLC pricing and there won't be a Season Pass, and I don't think they will try to package this game as a GOTY, but on the bright side this wont use Bioware Points.

Where it is the cheap I can get Andromeda(and legit)...?

 

[rtwjunkie]

OK, the amount of content in this game is insane! I am at 93 hours of playtime, and I would not be surprised if this went to Witcher 3 levels of 135-140 hours before I finished.

If you actually scan things and go and talk to people, you will get more than your fair share of side quests. Some will end up being intertwined with a main quest mission, and many will end up getting you really close to world viability before you even start colonizing a planet.

This is really, really fun! Also it is well worth $59.99.

Huge difference between quantity and quality.

Those of us that have put the time in know it is quality also.

*Big clue is read some of people's in-depth writing in preceding pages. If no quality it won't be fun.

Put in another 9 hours yesterday and I spent most of that right on Eos. I went back just to complete a side quest...ended up doing all sorts of side quests there, making discoveries, foiling the Kets plans and ended up with 98% viability for Eos. I'm still there by the way and it amazes me how much content is on just this one planet. The very cool part is all this extra content doesn't feel like filler. It feels like smaller stories part of the bigger picture.

I'm not sure how many hours I have in at this point but This is going to be a long game for sure.

Apologies for double-posting. Image limits

And finally, let me remind you that first impressions count! Don't be THAT person that brings a Turian to the first meeting with the Krogan leader.

That is a good looking Ryder. I won't post mine. I make her keep her helmet on so as not to scare children and the elderly.

That is way too funny! I spent a long time getting it just the way I wanted. Even so, occasionally I still get a weird expression. Most of the time it works ok tho. Hopefully tomorrow's patch helps.

 

[Frag_Maniac]

Nice to see they're actually being serious about fixing both facial and walking animations in the patch notes. Looks like there will be lots of bug fixes too.

 

[FordGT90Concept]

Is it actually improved though?

 

[rtwjunkie]

Is it actually improved though?

Patch comes tomorrow. So we'll know after then.

Point is, several of us have been trying to point out it is not as bad at all as the "let's hate on a new game" bandwagon has been. People love attention, and the sheeple love to follow.

All the screenshots above are from my actual game. I have over a hundred more if you want.

 

[rtwjunkie]

Once every few hours of play Ryder gets some Drew Barrymore type faces. Overall though, she holds what I generated very well.

 

[kurosagi01]

So its an improvement then the animations? Whats the navigation like in terms of selecting missions as i didn't like it on Mass effect 3.

 

[INSTG8R]

Yeah but it borked all the conversations now. Every choice has a number next to it. I don't think they mean anything but they look ugly...
/rant off

 

[rtwjunkie]

I'm not sure. My two problems were very intermittent, so in just a couple hours play last night it wasn't enough to say.

I was worried the patch would screw things up and it did. Conversations all have those ugly number selections next to them. Also, even with subtitles off, the final sentence of whoever you talk to shows up as a subtitle.

 

[Deleted member 67555]

Can't wait to try this patch.. The I have it on Xbone... And I very much doubt it will look that good....
