Iron Bull betraying me in Trespasser because I made the "wrong" choice (which honestly seemed like the thing he would appreciate more) was a pleasant surprise. An actual (minor) consequence in a Bioware game? My word!

IcePhoenix posted:why would you buy an xbone when you can have a ps4 though Why would you buy a PS4 when you could have a good console with good connection speeds that most (all, in my case) of the games you want to play come out on, with free Xbox 360 backcompatibility, with two (EA and Non-EA) Netflix-like services with large libraries which allow you to download all the currently available games you like versus streaming them, which also happens to be the most affordable Ultra BluRay player on the market instead? People make weird choices driven by peer pressure I guess.

The Relays were all burnt out by whatever choice you made (unless you Trainspotted on out of there.) The only person that knew this would happen was Sheppard. The Normandy was running away during the pulse thingy, and they didn't want to get fried by the pulse. They showed and didn't tell, I guess people wanted more telling and less showing or something. The ending was fine. Not great, but fine. It was either gonna be a Contact-like ending, or one of those endings where everything is explained so much that the mysterious ineffable antagonists come off as pathetically human. Plus, in the age of 3D modeling and full voice acting, the budget will never be there for 2D games with Infinity Engine-level storyline complexity... unless you're Polish, obviously. Certainly not EA. Superficial resolution is a more realistic outcome annoying as it is. It's about managing expectations, I guess.

I bet this game will be pretty good. I sort of skipped around that Polygon stream but I don't want to burn myself out with excitement or pre-release fatigue or whatever it is. When it comes out, Imma buy it, and play it, and not lose my poo poo either way.

Neddy Seagoon posted:Seriously, why do we need this masturbatory spaceflight scene just to change planets in a system every single loving time? They've had this down-pat since goddamn ME2, (zoom in, click planet, done) and it drives me up the wall trying to simply take a quick look at a planet for the percentage or an anomaly. I know, right? Things should happen instantly with no animations when I click on them, like harvesting minerals and interstellar flight. I don't think I'm being precious. Luckily I can The Little Kielbasa posted:Man, this is the worst consolitis I've seen in a while. The UI is neverendingly frustrating on PC. Double-ESC to close map, can't use ESC to close scanner mode, gotta hold down E to interact with anything, popups blocking information about upgrades, . submenus everywhere. Just a real steaming pile. It makes you realize how messed up using office productivity hardware instead of a game controller truly is. evilmiera posted:It just exists to pad out the playtime or to hide a bad system. But it does so in a very bad way that makes you not want to switch between areas to do other things. Inquisition did this better and that was still not really great. Nah. The animations are meant to look good. The gathering horseshit for crafting and things like that... that's full-on padding. escalator dropdown posted:The baffling thing is that there's so many menus/UIs and they're all bad in unique ways! You'd think they'd make one of them good even by accident given how many there are, but nope! Taear posted:The dialogue wheel reminds me a bit of Dragon Age 2. I feel like I'm not looking at what it says, just the icon. And often what it does say is REALLY different to what actually comes out. Yeah I wish I could just be pleasantly noncommittal in tone.

evilmiera posted:Yeah, that was the main problem with the conversation. You basically get the crux of their moving to Andromeda dropped on you with one inquiry for no real reason, especially considering this is like 800 years into the future or close to it and you're spending your days banging aliens, AIs and whatever else you happen to come across and it never gets brought up as strange or different. And I doubt most people would care if you are trans or not by that point, especially considering the advances in biotech that can just make the transition complete without most any kind of treatments if people are being brought back from the dead, cloned or just genetically altered all over the place. DrNutt posted:Maybe in the future of the Mass Effect universe no one gives a gently caress about "DEADNAMING" because people care reassign their gender at will and no one cares anymore. sneakyfrog posted:eh it might have been an attempt at inclusiveness that wasnt properly researched on tumblr exhaustively. Or maybe in andromeda in the distant future people have bigger problems then giving a gently caress who someone you arent trying to gently caress gender identifies? Or, you know, if they could just correct the dysphoria with their future-tech. They skirted pretty close to actually talking about stuff like that in ME1 with that one couple on the Citadel that Shepard either convinced to get the in vitro gene therapy or not. The concept of that quest was, wouldn't you want to make sure your kids aren't defective in any way, if you had the tech and could do it safely? An ethical dilemma for sure. That kind of thing was promptly dropped when EA bought Bioware, as a "what if" it can understandably be unpleasant for people to consider and EA/Bioware (admirably) wants to be inclusive. But still...

Also, I think I know why I didn't lose my poo poo about the ME3 ending. It's because the giant space baby skeleton is just so stupid, nothing can possibly be more stupid and all other fuckups pale in comparison.

RBA Starblade posted:I have been, it's helped but I'm not getting the stuff I actually need from it. Sure have a lot of Crusaders though! Crusaders are the best shotgun, actually. Zero VGS posted:Fun fact, a loving 1080ti Founders Edition with a 3440x1440 gsync monitor, can only drive the TITLE SCREEN of this game at 55fps. It must be hard to be a PC gamer.

It's amazing how much further one can adapt when one has already adapted to using office equipment designed for spreadsheets, etc, to play games, isn't it? Truly amazing times we live in. Frush posted:It's one of the mysteries of xbox live for me: Why does EVERY random I play with have a thick southern drawl?

Taear posted:Look at you thinking it's the same game. There's so many little weird plot bits - like everything involving the architects and the Roekaar - that it's got to have been re-done and re-written a billion times. Having an "open world" kind of works in favor of all the rewrites, it makes them slightly less obvious.

Zikan posted:You don't get the resources back 100% and some of the rare resources like element zero drop in small quantities unless you grind them and are used in a surprising number of blueprints. At the end of the game I had so many materials (even platinum, my personal roadblock) that it didn't matter, just like most RPGs. Crafting is crafting is crafting in this game and every other game with crafting: useless until you figure out something you really like and only go for those things. For me, it was the Heleus Icon armor set, the Crusader shotgun (gently caress pellet spread shotguns forever,) the Raptor sniper rifle, the Hurricane SMG, and the Hyperguardian armor set. I hear the PAW is good, maybe I will gently caress around with that on another play through.

Sturmtiger IV posted:I feel Liam and a couple others also suffered from Sera's greasy-face disorder. I think they screwed up Liam's screentime, especially early on. He seems like an agreeable sort, and I like his friendship with Jaal, but all those awkward shirtless scenes early on def did not endear me to him. Ripped dudes actually do that all the time IRL.  Kalaxus posted:Thank you everyone that responded to my recommendation request. Forgot about the sequels getting shelved, wish they weren't wasting our time with this new IP then next Dragon Age timetable. They need to lease out the Mass Effect license like Fallout did for New Vegas. That other company would do a better job than Bioware. Not the EA Way™. That, or EA would have to immediately acquire and liquidate this upstart developer.

Maybe? ...Nah, probably not. JawKnee posted:just finished Witcher 3 a couple days ago. Good game, though I still don't care about Geralt, and the game assumes you'll know what the hell the plot is leading into it - which I didn't - but it isn't crucial to enjoying the game. It's kind of a jump from the second game, which I barely remember. I never felt like the game expected me to have played the other ones... but I did read the hell out of the Codex. I love me some reading in my video games.
