Hank Morgan posted:I make a point of running away from him in the dream sequences. Eventually the game gives up and advances the cutscene. Tirranek posted:Sure. I really enjoyed that briefing trailer and am really keen on the series having a chance to start from scratch. A lot of what made ME1 so good was the sense of getting to know the world and the space around you, and if Andromeda can bring that feeling back with mechanics and aesthetics that aren't bland, then

Xad posted:Whenever people say mass effect 2 is pretty much perfect, I always have to wonder if I missed something when fighting the giant terminator final boss thing. Because as a vanguard, you can't charge him, you can't really shotgun him either, so you get this lovely climactic flight where you gradually pistol the final boss to death.

Skippy McPants posted:I remember the poo poo-fit people pitched when they learned they wouldn't be able to customize Hawke.  And to throw in my .02 DA2 isn't the worst game ever made, not by a long shot. It did some things right (rivalry system, faster combat, good characters) and some things wrong (pretty much everything else). I can see where people who read reviews and bought it at launch for full price would feel really ripped off - I got it used at GS for $10 and the guy working the counter threw in some kind of special edition because "nobody buys this anyway." However Bioware seemed to learn some lessons from this, and hopefully Mac Walters has also learned about his fuckups and will learn that collaborating and bouncing ideas off of other people isn't a bad thing.

Blastedhellscape posted:If we don't see any elcor, volus, hanar, or batarians and vorcha (I'm sure the Andromeda galaxy will have its own version of space orc and space goblins) it'll be no big loss. Would be a little tragic if the next game has no krogans, though. CottonWolf posted:Volus were woefully underused in the initial trilogy. It really disappoints me that they probably won't appear in this one at all.

exquisite tea posted:My perspective has always been that despite the enormously hacky way it got there, Control was a legitimately interesting endstate for the galaxy at the end of the Mass Effect series and I would have preferred to see them attempt to deal with that setting rather than this slavish, uninspired, and most likely meme-filled rendition we're about to see in Andromeda. BexGu posted:I'm afraid the current batch of writers would have pulled a Blizzard and "corrupted" a control Shepard. Then you've got seriously PTSD'd Shepard now adjusting to being a machine god and she could start going off the rails. At some point the crew decides this poo poo ain't working and they plan to pull Shep back out. We've got clone Shepard as a thing, so maybe Cerberus has a few more stashed around. With TIM gone an already morally defunct group with apparently unlimited assets and a bunch of semi husked soldiers really goes off the rails so now you have to locate a new clone and somehow download Shep's consciousness back into a body (sure it's nutty but not out of place in the ME universe). After a whole bunch of poo poo you're successful and there you go, that gets you a living human Shep back, more adventures with the gang, and the opportunity to fix the dumb poo poo that's happened.

exquisite tea posted:I always do Shadow Broker after returning to Ilium for Miranda's loyalty mission, so like about 2/3rds of the way through the game. Though it's amusing how you can just initiate it right away even without completing Liara's little sidequests, "Shepard help me track down the Shadow Broker whom I've been stalking for y-- actually nvm let's just go now." Although the "This will take years to figure out" "No actually I have the info right here ps good to see you after 2 years" is funny either way.
