ratchetdude231 Posted February 24, 2017 Author Share Posted February 24, 2017 (edited) Quote When asked by PC Gamer whether or not there are missions that expire as players progress through the story, Frazier responded: "...there's a handful of quests that, if you finish the main story, are no longer accessible. But it's a pretty small percentage. But the vast majority of the game, including the loyalty missions, Mass Effect-2 style, you can do even after you finish the main story. Most parts are still open." Source Pretty good news. I'm going to try and do as many side quests as possible throughout the game, but it is cool that the vast majority of side content is still available even after the story is over.

Splathew Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 I'm so excited! I'm a bit worried about the story but I'm totally on board with the combat. I felt ME3 had the best combat and this look's like a improved version of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyxoune Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 I can't wait to play this game ! Mass Effect 2 is one of my most beloved game I have really high expectation and I trust BioWare to deliver !

I wouldn't expect it to be as good as Mass Effect 2. It isn't a Commander Shepard story. As long as people can distinguish the difference between the original Trilogy, and Andromeda, I think most people will be satisfied with the game, provided it isn't a massive flop. Anything's possible with EA. But BioWare is one of five studios that I trust unflinchingly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the universe needed a new start, with fresh characters! I'll wait and see but for what I've seen I pretty like the new character design. I can't wait to experience the game, I hope the writing's good ! BioWare do know that story and characters are key in a Mass Effect game, so I'm staying confident !

ShadowReplicant Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 I was a bit skeptical, but after watching that IGN video, I am genuinely worried. I could forgive that the gameplay consists of pressing buttons to clear a path and boring shooting galleries, but I can't ignore the truly awful writing. It feels like I'm watching Power Rangers or something – are they targeting a younger audience now? What happened? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing bad about that video is IGN employing casuals to demo games. Incinerate on shields... my god. And it's not like he used overload afterwards for a tech combo.

Since she seems to be the comic relief character, they might've just upped the banter in the mission a bit too much. The gameplay seems pretty Mass Effecty, i mean it was always a shooting gallery and just go down a straight path in main missions. The only thing i'm worried about are the facial animations, especially from Ryder. But we'll see, a lot can happen in a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing they mean there are hundred planets in the Andromeda galaxy and a handful of them are explorable as in you can land on them and explore the planet and do side quests.

It's one thing to charge for multiplayer DLC and have Microtransactions, but it's a completely other thing to offer all the multiplayer DLC for free and throw some microtransactions in to make some money. I think it's a perfect trade off and I wish more multiplayer games did something like that. All the multiplayer maps being free means the player base won't be divided which I think is great. Overwatch has a pretty similar system and it's working pretty great for Blizzard and the Overwatch community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's why EA Lives every year Overwathc ALL is free new maps, new characters, Buff or nerfs, Events the onyl thing you pay are Lootbox so microtransations if we want to see them that way, that's fair and i agree but the rets, it should Always be Free not cost me 15 € Per DLC or 60 € the Season Pass (more than the game) Like some Series....
