Pretty much all the stupid sentences i've heard were from Liam, that guy can't stop quipping.

They are a race of women that reproduce via space magic. The fact they reproduce via space magic doesn't not make them not a race of women.

There's only so many times I can jerk it to "KROGAN COCK SO GOOD". And even that triggers me since she calls them "alien scum". Shep wouldn't do that.
>>
>>171147174
They look like women, sound like women, act like women, and are always referred to with "she".

"Monogendered" is just a fancy synonym for "race of hot all-female aliens". Hell, they even refer to them as "space babes" in the making-of. Asari are women, get over it.

Proof, faggot.

They need to have some kind of base form, they aren't shapeshifters. Which means if you, say, grabbed one you'd detect whatever their physical form is. Pretty sure they can't mind-control you into feeling flesh where there's actually just empty space.

>imagine being lgbt+….and playing the new mass effect game. imagine being a trans boy who’s gay. now let’s say you don’t want to fuck an alien. too bad!! the only other human men are your father, and a man who says he’s not into men at all. fuck you bioware. just fuck you.

>Bioware is a biphobic and homophobic disaster as always

>Here’s a big hug going out to all of us disappointed in the spoilers about romance in Andromeda, found out that our preferred romance isn’t an option for our Ryder. This is why we asked early on for a romance list, this is why we wanted warning, and this is why we’re sad and pissed off now.

>bioware more like why-oware as in why bioware why do you keep making characters straight, queerbaiting us

>i’m sorry, bioware, but the fact that you expect me to believe cora harper is straight is some fucked up bullshit right there,

>Bioware: We’re being progressive by making a character look like a lesbian and then making her straight!

>yeah its uhhh bad and mlm deserve better :/ like they didn’t learn Anything from the original trilogy lol they’re still sidelining their gay and lesbian characters, they’re still giving mlm a grand total of Two romances (only one of whom is even human), they’re still going with the classic bioware butch girl who is Actually Straight bs

>I had a horrible dream that ace people are going to get shafted in ME:A and the worst part of it is that it’s probably going to be true

>Bioware, lemme let you in on a little secret… Bi people exist.

>i am So Tired of Straights trying to get in on queer fans giving criticism to bioware on the lack of queer relationships shown in the trailers and teasers. Like whats your fucking problem!! You’ve gotten to see Scott Ryder boning Peebee and Cora already!! Shut the fuck up!!!!!!!

It's one guy, complaining about shit like the game's entire story isn't apparent from the introductory mission.
The other guy, who has played more, saying that shit starts to unfold, like y'know, as an rpg's story should.
First guy then starts complaining about how Ryder sounds like a stupid 20 year old (which he/she is), and more about how he wasn't spoonfed the entire story, and how Bioware should have invented some innovative new dialogue system.
Guy 1 & new guy 3 then start complaining about the new fly-around-space transitions for 5 paragraphs.
Guy 2 then reels it in and makes sense.
1 Begrudgingly agrees, 3 fucks off to do more benchmarks

tl;dr Dumbfuck expected the entire plot in the first 45 while reasonable guy shrugged saying the story unfolds as it should.

I'm not. But shit like accusing someone of either being outright fanboy, or outright shitting on mass effect but not really saying other than *i hate x* isn't really saying anything that hasn't been predicted before and also reiterated since trailers came out.

Literally cannot play game and not feel like one is being some kind of casual not-a-real-gamer cancer. Or don't play game and is being some sort of entitled angry minority hater etc.

I dunno. The game is getting shit on everywhere, but I didn't find it completely terrible. I noticed some clunky dialogue and animations as people have said. And I haven't really dived into the menus yet. Plus the lack of manual saving is extremely annoying (more so than anything else to me. I can live with the animations if they'd just let me quick save). The combat is noticeably more difficult than previous ones. To me at least.

It's playable. Solid "B-" so far.

I got annoyed when daddy died and I chose the right option thinking Scott would get emotional and talk about how he didn't know him and wish he'd spent more time with him, but instead it was the "My dad's dead and I don't really give a fuck" response.

Not sure. A lot of games will let you "start" before full download but you can't do anything. Fallout 4 shows those intro movies on repeat. I say with a 10 hour limit don't risk wasting any time and just wait for it to finish.

I'll hope for flirting in the conversation, still. He keeps giving vibes where I feel I could flirt with him, even when it was Scott talking to him.

Playing the trial, I'm curious as to what could be in the day one patch.

Combat feels pretty fun,barring an issue or two, playing on hardcore got me killed pretty quick if I wasn't playing with a plan. Melee doesn't feel like it has any omph to it though. I like the dodging, though I'll need to put it to a different mouse key. Maybe my key5, if the corsair shit is ever sorted out. Haven't figured out how to change my equipped weapons yet, but then again I don't have a shotgun like I want so no reason to bother at this point.


Tried to give my Ryder a nice rapey feel, how'd I do?

you are remembering this wrong

the door opened because SAM did some hacking buzzwordery and it seems the Kett don't have anything on hand as sophisticated as SAM.

the hand-waving thing was to interact with the machine inside the building. it's not at all stupid for the Kett guy to try to imitate that, followed by him looking at his hand because he was wondering what Alec had that allowed him to interface with the computer. it was a really good scene.

Holy shit. So the cat's pretty much outta the bag now isn't it? Even early impressions from reviewers aren't good. Reviewers who scored DA:I high.

What are we looking at here? Honestly? Because this is unprecedented for a Bioware game to have this much heat on it by both players and critics, before the game is even released. I'm not meming, and I'm not being hyperbolic, but are we actually looking at a critical and commercial flop here? I'm actually starting to wonder if heads are gonna fucking roll over at Bioware Montreal over this. It's becoming pretty clear why Casey Hudson bailed a couple years ago.

I mean they had 4-5 years. There's no excuse for this. Something went deeply wrong with how the development of this game was managed and executed. All those years that went by with us not seeing Andromeda at E3s, it's becoming pretty clear why.

They do that all the time in Bioware games. None of the assets in CC are unique, that's why your custom character will always look like an npc while your party members will actually look like distinguishable characters.

Shitty priorities there, pops.

That being said, damn Alec's had a hard life, his AI research was shat on for ages before it finally got him booted from the alliance, which also ended up getting his kids booted too, as well as him finding out his wife had some terminal disease.

They don't have an accent but they have a distinct tone of voice due to voice modulations.

Mordin sounds different to Kirrahe who sounds different to Kallo and even a couple non-important Salarians sound a bit different (but still similar to each other)

But Nanjiani's indian accent is distracting to me, it's weird. Like British Asari Lexi.

Agreed, and if it wasn't BioWare, I'd be hype as it would imply a based reversal of the original trilogy's muh killer spess robots.

But it is BioWare, which means that it's going to include the worst of recycled tropes.

>mfw the Kett are Not!Prothean in appearance and are likely being expansionist cockmonglers because the Remnants are actually the Andromedan version of Reapers and the Kett are trying to unite the galaxy against them before it's too late

>mfw they're only shooting Milky Way migrants on-sight because they know nothing about us except we're extragalctic invaders with what seems to be an affinity for Remnant technology (the Alec interface scene) and thus need to be stopped at all costs

>mfw the repeated emphasis on muh dark energy means that BioWare will likely try to recycle those plot points too

Do you have any idea how iterative game development is? I bet they had like 3 or 4 prototypes that got scrapped, at least twice as many assets than what actually made it into the game which means they could've made the game, that is now Andromeda, in about 2.5 years.

For a AAA RPG it's usually 1.5 years of pre-production, 2 years of alpha(asset production) and another year of bug hunt/polish.

I think they just render a handful of basic guns for cutscenes, then make all the others auto-fill to them if they aren't one of those guns.

In Mass Effect 3, your edited Avenger would have its attachments on it in cutscenes; but if you had a different AR, it would just spawn a vanilla Avenger.

But that's just one of those retarded platitudes that's obviously not true, like "there are no stupid questions." The backlash against ME3 had a negative impact on sales and BioWare's reputation. ME2 sold way more copies than ME1 and was regarded as amazing, but ME3 sold less copies than ME2 and Inquisition sold so poorly they won't release the numbers and the franchise is on ice. BioWare's reputation and marketability was massively damaged by ME3.

Maybe next Bioware game will have someone but Suvi was just leagues above even Morrigan, so it really will be hard to top and I'm not sure Bioware will ever make an LI that I am really excited for.

Patrician taste.

People who hate ME3 are of two flavors: redditors who liked the worst parts of ME2 like the exaggerated cliche edgelord characters and the near-complete lack of a main goal, and criticize ME3 for getting rid of that stupid shit, or snobs who say only ME1 was good while ignoring every single issue it had.

Completely agree tbqh. I got over it due to viewing Sara as nothing but a walking meme (which makes the awful writing give you laffs every 20 seconds) but it's still fucking jarring.

When Shep was a dick, they punched reporters, burned people alive, lied about curing the Genophage, or gunned down defenseless enemies. It was well-done showing, not telling. Ryder on the other hand just makes a capeshit-tier quip and everyone reacts like they just got omgrekt.

ME3 sold 6 million copies (and nearly 4 million in one month) which I'm fairly sure is a lot more than ME2.

http://www.ubergizmo.com/2017/02/mass-effect-andromeda-sell-3m-copies-first-week/

Another easy way of comparison would be that ME2 sold about half of ME3 in the whole first month (by which time everyone should have known about the story, so no excuses).

http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-04-13-opening-month-us-mass-effect-3-sales-double-mass-effect-2s

The fact that its DLC was a lot more extensive and expensive than ME2's (which would not happen unless it was profitable) would also heavily point to the longtime fans being satisfied enough by it.

But he's right. Granted Shepard's a soldier and Ryder's just some jackass. So Ryder acting like a punk to be "tough" makes sense. He doesn't actually have the capability to follow up on any threats, so he settles for capeshit-tier quips.

Basically, Ryder's a punk little bitch and Shepard can actually take actions.

And from a practical standpoint, I imagine having mostly younger people on a colonisation mission just makes sense.

No it isn't. ME3 had legs. Most of its sales came months after it had been released, by which time the Internet was all blasting about how good or bad it was.

The next ME game came five years after ME3.

Be triggered all you want, but at least go through the effort of trying to defend your position.

Ryder is a young, inexperienced protagonist shoved into a role due to chance and the machinations of their father. Alright, breddy gud setup.

Being in this situation should narratively include people laughing in your face, show you to be naive and out of your depth at first.

People like Cora, and even most of your crew should be shaking their heads at you, not treat you as their bff because you made a one-liner.

It fucks with what's being portrayed vs. what's being said.

They did, and I was looking forward to seeing more of that. You get a taste of it there, and when you first get to the Nexus. (The 'sorry my face isn't animated properly, I'm tired' grill was awfully portrayed, but had a good point.)

I'm not very far into the game yet, but it's a trend I'm noticing with Andromeda as a whole so far. For a 50+ hour game, it's pacing is way off so far. Alec dies before you even get to know him, your sibling gets VEGETABLE'd before you can even interact with them, people accept you as a Pathfinder after only a few cutscenes of doubt etc. It all just feels rushed to appeal to the ADD audience.

This was a problem with the other mass effect games too. There are moments that weren't quite earned, but there's just enough stuff there to lean on to make you feel like they were earned. like becoming the first human spectre, or shepard dying, or discovering that the collectors are protheans. This is quite endemic to the mass effect franchise, but it was easily overlooked in previous games because everything else was so much better. If what you say is precise and accurate though, it just feels like whoever wrote this just fucking gave up. Feels kinda amateurish. Or like its on the draft stage

I know. I was just hoping that with 5 years and a soft reboot of the setting that they could have done things a bit better.

Even ME1, while throwing you straight into the deep end had enough in-depth codex entries to give you a handle on the context of what was happening and why it's important, as well as exposition npcs from multiple races to get a feel on how current events are viewed by the major factions.

There's plenty of exposition in Andromeda, but it's missing that framework that ME1 had. To be fair though, ME2 was far worse than Andromeda with this.

If people bitch "publicly" its more productive to bitch in a way that is amenable to fanboys, and to people who are already drifting close to the hate abyss. Nothing productive can possibly come out of blind fanboyism or blind hate, though yes those both stem out of a desire to see the series stay at least somewhat good.

But from what i've seen in streams the game looks ok. the face animations and textures are jarring at times, can't say anything about the writing since you can't stream very much of the story. I'd probably have fun playing it once at least

No, you're correct. At least the entry level biotics like throw don't seem to affect shielded enemies at all, which was why they were so crippled in ME2.

ME3 struck a good balance, no idea why they decided to take a step back but I guess I shouldn't be surprised

Honestly, i've played it on Origin and the game is okay.
It's a 6/10, and for $20 it's probably worth a buy, but Andromeda is basically to Mass Effect what TFA was to Star Wars.

I would liken it more to Star Trek 2009 vs the original trek movies. Lots of style less substance. EVERYTHING IS YOUNGER AND SUPERCHARGED.
With TFA he did try and manage to capture a little of that star wars magic. Not quite so with Trek. Or at least, he did a way better job of it with TFA than he did with Trek

After a few hours it's fucking unbearable to play a single-player rpg without manual saving. I don't know what toucan-haired quebecois retard thought that was a 'bold' idea, but it's fucking awful. Wonky faces and plastic hair and everybody being biracial I can handle, but no saving is somehow gayer than all that.

Strange thing to finally cancel my preorder over after the billion other things that've been pointed out. but it really is that fucking awful

Ah I get you yeah.
But I wish Andromeda was at least generically good, with no obvious strikes against it like facial animations. If they could have done that, this could have been a nice open door for them to get a second crack at redeeming themselves as it were. But with mucking up emoting, skin texturing (though i do say in dark lighting the skin textures look all right), they aren't exactly giving themselves a strong start

ME1 armor was pretty skin-tight. There was even a codex entry about how shields/barriers had made bulky armor unnecessary. It wasn't until 2 and 3 that they added muh pauldrons as Shep's armor design. Miranda/Jack/Samara were running around in muhfuggin catsuits.

Oh, the shield is only a small damage reduction?

I suppose it makes sense looking at it but it would be cooler if it was like that defense shield the N7 Engineer had in ME3 which was invulnerable. Or even the Juggernaut shields which blocked everything until their HP ran out.

In me2 biotics only help take down unprotected enemies, on insanity they all have protection, and tech can strip away all but one of them setting you up for an easy weapon kill. Vanguard is great but it's hardly a biotic class, you're really just the shot gun class.

I really hope it actually does come out, and that BioWare (and by extension Mass Effect) isn't ded when it does.

TW3 was nowhere near perfect, but CDPR really demonstrated to everyone what western third person RPGS can be and how dated BioWare's methods are. TW2 and 3 made massive profits, I hope EA views this as a sign and tells BioWare to get their shit together.

The armor customization for the MC seems pretty decent here, at least ME3 tier in being able to customize all the parts. Hopefully they don't pull an ME3 and use that system, yet not give you any fucking selection of armor for it.

They somehow managed to make another Mass Effect game after the clusterfuck that was ME3 and Inquisition was nowhere near as controversial as that was.

The guns and sfx in general is the most well-done part of the game.

Guns, movement, the nomad, even the lightning in the first level are all 10/10 in terms of sound design. They all have weight and feel visceral, yet aren't overly loud.

I shot the faggot kid. Fuck him and his bullshit decisions. I unit the galaxy. Peace was obtainable. His decisions made no sense and I regret nothing. The invasion continued and we should have won.

>>171167627
Did... Did you not play a single Mass Effect game? They never give an exact number, but it's basically always "pretty much infinite, don't even think about it, there's more than you can comprehend".

Effectively, there's an infinite number of Reapers. Or a number so massive it's irrelevant to even know it exactly.
>>
>>171167607
we get it, you're a misanthrope
>>
>>171167732
There were not and that was very obvious hyperbole. I'm not sure why this has to be stated explicitly for you.
>>
>>171167732
The number if reapers is easily quantifiable. One new Reaper every 50,000 years makes it a very much non-infinite number.
>>
>>171167686
>>171167652
>>171167706
>>171167627
>I never paid attention to how heavily emphasized it was that

Hell, godchild even states organics are vastly outnumbered. And we know there's trillions of organics.

Therefore, at bare minimum, there's trillions of Reapers. And thanks for ignoring the "technology" comment. With all their power, you don't think they have a way to scan space? With their numbers and technology I don't see how they'd miss the ships.

Now leave the thread and go replay the trilogy. You idiots apparently don't remember much.
>>
>>171167732
>a number so massive it's irrelevant to even know it exactly.
>one(1) new reaper gets made every 50,000 years
how fucking long have they been reaping?
>>
WHERE IS THE NEW THREAD FAGGOTS
>>
>>171167864
>Hell, godchild even states organics are vastly outnumbered
No he didn't. It's literally not possible for there to be trillions of Reapers, retard. The galaxy isn't that old.
>>
>>171167881
Who knows? The entire point is they're so ancient that trying to analyze them, understand their tech, or numerate them is pointless.

Seriously, did any of you retards even play the series? There is no explaining the Reapers, there is no number. They are infinite and almost invincible. The end. They are not meant to be evaluated logically.

None of you paid any attention in a single scene related to Reapers.
>>
>>171167881
>>171168037
Less than 1 billions years of Reaping, meaning there are less than 20,000 Reapers total.
>>
IS THERE A WAY TO TRICK THE 10 HOUR TIMER?
>>
>>171167972
Shepard can say that they'll fight the Reapers the normal way, and godchild flat-out states they're outnumbered. And again, stop looking for a logical explanation of the Reapers from me. There is none. That was the fucking point.

Holy shit you guys are so retarded it's hilarious. Did every single one of you miss how there is no true explanation? How they have no limit? How they're meant to be ancient godlike machines beyond our comprehension?
>>
>>171168102
Don't they also take all the humans and transform them into reapers? There should have been thousands created because of Earth.
>>
>>171167864
Wow. There's only a trillion reapers? hold on thats...
roughly 3 million km spaced between each one if they're spaced out equally along the rim (which they're not), and that assumes they left in the plane of the galaxy (which they didn't) which means you are retarded
>>
>>171168037
So I'm confused, is this guy a Biodrone because he actually bought the "unknowable infinite enemy" BS they were pushing or is he just a normal retard?
>>
>>171168102
Stop being stupid on purpose.

As the game has hammered into your head, or at least tried to and you were too fucking dumb to notice, there's a hell of a lot more than ~20,000. Did you listen to Sovereign? Or Harbinger? Or godchild? Or any character talking about Reapers?

Seriously, did any of you actually play the trilogy? Because you don't seem to even get the point of the antagonist(s).
>>
>>171168160
Each cycle yields ONE Reaper.
>>171168148
Saying "lol idunno" is not an argument. The Reapers are unreliable narrators but the actual narrative is not. There are less than 20,000 reapers.
>>
>>171168148
>Did every single one of you miss how there is no true explanation? How they have no limit? How they're meant to be ancient godlike machines beyond our comprehension?

The posturing blowhard Reaper who said that fucking died at my hand later in that game
>>
>>171168160
I think it was mentioned that they only made like one per cycle, or one per major species per cycle
>>
>>171168237
It's been a while, thought the next generation became the new reapers.
>>
How many threads ago did datamine/leaks happen? I haven't been able to check in for a few days.
>>
>>171168210
>>171168214
Alright, I give up. You retards missed literally the entire point of the existence of the Reapers as enemies. You're trying to apply normal logic and science to them when the whole point is that's a waste of time, how stupid could you be?
>>
>>171168214
>he has to be a biodrone or one of us
your tribalism is needed on a certain other board
>>
>>171168315
Nope, one reaping=one reaper. Each Reaper is like an evil encyclopedia of each cycle.
>>
>>171168230
None of those were exactly reliable sources though, especially since the catalyst was literally trying to talk Shepard into using it for its intended purpose to achieve it's weird end goal, so nothing they said could be trusted.
>>
>>171168389
Ah, shows what I know.
>>
>>171168237
>Saying "lol idunno" is not an argument
You're right, it's not an argument. It's the game's explanation.
>>
>>171168436
No it isn't. The games made it abundantly clear that Reapers are full of shit. You can't trust anything they say, which is one of the reasons the ME3 ending was so terrible.
>>
Can we bitch about how terrible the ending of 3 is? I shot the faggot kid. Fuck him and his bullshit decisions. I unit the galaxy. Peace was obtainable. Legion gave his life to give the AIs reason. His decisions made no sense and I regret nothing. The invasion continued and we should have won.
>>
>>171168214
>he actually bought the "unknowable infinite enemy" BS they were pushing
That was the entire point, anon. That they were unknowable and infinite. They weren't pushing anything.
>>
>>171168436
I'm not going to defend the game's explanation of the reapers, but you aren't much further ahead if you didn't realize they were originally going for a lovecraftian angle with the reapers
>>
>>171168516
Actually, I think the ending was pretty ok.
>>
>>171168516
>I unit the galaxy
Are you saying you raped the galaxy?
>>
>>171168515
>The games made it abundantly clear that Reapers are full of shit
No. No they didn't. You're just ignoring what's there and trying to figure out your own explanation.

You guys remind me of people who watch superhero movies and then complain and try to analyze the science of the superpower. When it's a fucking superpower in a superhero movie.
>>
>>171168575
How? Maybe if I let everybody kill each other, but I brought everybody together to fight the reapers.

>>171168609
United. My bad.
>>
>>171168547
yeah, originally, then they replaced it with a bullshit "we have to kill you to save you" explanation and gimped them down to something that honestly should have been beatable conventionally.
>>
>>171168547
>if you didn't realize they were originally going for a lovecraftian angle with the reapers
And how many times have I explained that they're supposed to be an unknown horror?

You're being stupid on purpose now, apparently.
>>
>>171168640
>Leviathan DLC straight up confirms the Reapers are just a programming fuck up courtesy of saturday morning villain squids.
>>
>>171168640
>No. No they didn't.
Yes. Yes they did. The Reapers said they were invincible, but we killed many of them. The Reapers said they were infinite, and yet they had to attack planets a few at a time with just a handful of of Reapers per attack. The Reapers said their motives were unknowable, but their motives were easily knowable and entirely stupid.
>>
>>171168725

i was defending your explanation you dumb fuck

Wasn't it just "humans became too powerful"?

What happened to bitching about numbers and the size of space?

What they were supposed to be and what they ended up being are 2 different things.
>>171168837
Wasn't what?
>>
>>171168524
Except every source that told you that had their own reason to lie about it and make you give up faster, when from what we know the reapers only made one additional reaper each cycle, which even over the course of 2 billion years at one every 50,000 that's only 40,000 cycles, so yeah, there aren't more than like 50,000 reapers at most, probably less than that accounting for losses over the years.
>>
>>171168892
The reason they decided to attack humanity. I can't remember.
>>
>>171168817
Literally what. Is
>I'm not going to defend the game's explanation of the reapers
>you aren't much further ahead
defending my explanation somehow?
>>
>>171168926
...what? The cycle started like it always does. Humans had nothing to do with it. Humans only mattered to the plot of ME2.
>>
>>171151202
Agreed. I'm a dyke who will hump and dump Suvi. My Ryder will flirt with all the girls but probably end up with peepoo because she puts out the most
>>
>>171168908
>Using numbers again
>Missing the entire point again

Okay, you guys can have the last word. I can't take this retardation. Go back to ME1, please. Or go and explain the science of how a spider bite gave a guy superpowers.
>>
>>171169029
Your argument has already been demolished, fuckwit. The Reapers were full of shit. They literally cannot be telling the truth because it's mathematically impossible.
>>
>>171168943
You just said you were saying the reapers were an unknon horror which i was agreeing with. what the fuck is even happening. are some of you niggers just so hellbent on being pissed off that you'll find anything to be pissed off about? when you have a hammer and all that? fuck sakes
>>
>>171169005
I thought there was always a reason they decided who to attack next.
>>
>>171168926
They picked out humanity because they decided they were the best candidate to be the next Reaper. If you restrain yourself from blowing his head off on sight Harbringer shit talks a bunch in ME2 about how the Reapers see the various other races as flawed and inferior for various reasons.
>>
>>171169070
Unless they created more than one per cycle. How do we know that's even true?

I just humans being in the next cycle compared to any other race.
>>
>>171169029
You're an annoying fag who doesn't understand that bioware deciding to give us numbers to figure out the amount of reapers in their invasion force makes taking the word of the least fucking reliable sources in the game about how they outnumber us into a load of bullshit, you are the fucking cancer that is enabling developers to spew bullshit without thinking about what it means, and if you want to keep it up why don't you go to Tumblr, they like people who don't understand facts and refuse to use math.

What were these scources? Nobody even knew who the reapers were until ME1. And repears were lying shits. Hell, the child's flawed thinking that Soverign corrupted Saren and that was a reason peace could never exist.
