Oh gee I wonder what went wrong?

It's because the quality of the entire game is awful, there's not anything good in it at all, except MAYBE the combat. If anything people were too light on the game and not critical enough.

No. If anything, critics were far too kind.

>Watching YongYea after MGSV

>people still buy from EA
Fucking why

>>388225940
It was overcritizised for glitches but undercritizised as a whole

For example, the Witcher 3 had more bugs and glitches on release than Andromeda did, also Andromeda felt like it was at least playtested unlike the Witcher 3. And yet people didn't bash the Wittcher because it wasn't made by an evil company (though CD Projekt Red are hacks)

>>388225940
What are some reviews that really tear into the game?

>>388225940
It was a 5/10 game, and everyone gave it 1/10. So yeah, it was overcriticized. Still not a good game.

>>388225940

Yeah, there was a lot of bitching. As someone who's actually played through the game it was actually [/spoiler]not as bad as everyone was making it out to be. I had fun with it.[/spoiler]

>>388226929
I experienced 0 jarring bugs or glitches playing Witcher 3; and I pirated it at launch.
I experienced more than two dozen different immersion shattering bugs and glitches in ME:A before I dropped the game 5 hours in.

>>388228357
it was the opposite on console

mass effect is a console game while the witcher is a PC game

>>388228357
Not him but funnily enough, I pirated MEA and didn't experience any bug (other than the terrible animations) and with TW3 I got my save corrupted after playing 20 hours.

By people who played the game, no. By the people who like shitting on games they have never played, yeah. But at the same time if the game was good there'd be no issue.
But yeah, I think meme hate trains definitely stiffle conversation and sales of mediocre games. Some games die on the vine like Andromeda, and others make up for it enough to keep large player bases like Destiny.

They said the exact same thing about ME3, spawning "entitled gamer" shitposting. EA will never admit fault and that is why it is our solemn duty to shitpost every iota of happiness from their lives

>>388225940
Sorta
I think it got the backlash it deserved, all the shit that rained upon it was justified.
But it feels like it was "too much" cause there has been other triple A games with similar issues and as many problems at release that didn't get meme'd on so hard.

Fuck EA and I hope this keeps happening to any big release that turns out to be as shit as this one

You must play up to 10-12 new games per year if you think that half of the garbage that comes out isn't worse than Andromeda.

That's not how the 1-10 scale works, retard.

5/10 is 50%, which means barely passable. If you get 50% on a report/exam that's a failure in most places that matter. 5/10 is mediocre for a game, you need to raise your standards.

They have a double down mentality when it comes to their mistakes. Instead of accepting responsibility for their fuckups they'll pretend like their fuckups were intentional and merely misunderstood. Above all, in a corporate atmosphere, incompetence is the ultimate sin, so people would rather lie and go against the grain pretending like they've got a master plan that will work out eventually.

I don't understand the Andromeda hate.

As a fan of the original Mass Effect, Andromeda is more like Mass Effect 1 than any of the other sequels.

Andromeda brought back travel on open world planets. Reminds me of the old days driving around Mass Effect 1 doing side missions.

Andromeda brought back an inventory system. Something Mass Effect 2 removed so casuals don't have to deal with managing items they collect.

Andromeda makes you feel like you are exploring the galaxy. Mass Effect 2 and 3 was just going from action mission to action mission.

Their refund policy and demos/trials are literally better than Steam's. And they did refunds by choice and not by force unlike Steam. Everything else is worse, but still.

If I try a bunch of games that look like shit I will be wasting an awful lot of my time and money.

Out of all of the games I DO decide to spend my time and money on, Mass Effect Andromeda gets a 2. Not a 5.

Do you understand? I play games that are better than ME:A. A lot of them. So many that ME:A can't even get a 3 out of a 10. I would have to play hundreds of garbage indie titles that are worse than ME:A in order to raise it to a relative 5 out of a 10. I would have god awful taste in games if I'm constantly spending my time and money on hot trash like that. Just like you do.

This is why you're being ridiculed. Not because you gave it a 5; because you could have spent time defending why you gave it a 5. Instead you take the stance that isn't not bad because you play much worse. You're not trying to say ME:A was worth the 5, you're saying other stuff is worse. That should raise the red flag in your mind that maybe your opinion isn't really worth a fucking thing when the only endorsement you can give a game is that you spend just as much time and money on worse shit.

Didn't took me much time to find this:

https://geekreply.com/geek-culture/gaming-geek-culture/2017/04/05/mass-effect-andromedas-biggest-issue-alien-diversity

>In Mass Effect Andromeda, the main cast of characters yet again consists of mostly Turians, Asari, Krogans, and Humans. They’re all decently written characters, but I expect more than this shallow pool of aliens from Mass Effect. There are tons of untapped races to choose from, and each by their very presence would both make the world more interesting and expand lore. Characters in space operas aren’t just there for their own narratives, they’re also vehicles to bring unknown cultures to focus.

>Vorcha lore is ripe to be written by the developers. Maybe even make one a romance option for Ryder? If I can romance a pointy stegosaurus-like Turian, why can’t I romance a member of his demon-like alien contemporary race, the Vorcha? Try making it female to further expand Vorcha lore. Just do something to change up the current formula and please let me romance Lyanne the Vorcha.

>To Bioware’s credit, there is one bastion of diversity on your crew, Jaal who belongs to a brand new race of people. He’s member of a race found native to Aya, a planet in the Andromeda system. Disappointingly, he and his race don’t bring anything of interest to Mass Effect. They’re basically humans with purple skin. Almost everything from tech to culture is exactly the same as what you find in human civilization. The only difference between Humans and Angara is their narrative with the Kett, another new race in the Andromeda Galaxy.

I think it was undercriticized. Everyone focused on the animations but the choices never mattered, the quests were shitty mmo quests outside of a handful, the open world sucked, enemies kept spawning out of thin air, nobody like the whacky, young and inexperienced MC or his one trick pony crew. Drack is a grandpa krogan and nothing else, Cora is the ME equivalent to a weeaboo and nothing else, Peepee is a #SCIENCE "not like those other girls" type and nothing else and so on. Who didn't enjoy talking to their gay engineer about his inner anguish over whether he should donate sperm or not? Nobody even liked the new jellyfish race because they were so humanlike. Mass Effect 1 had more unique and weird aliens than this game.

Also, the game looked pig disgusting. Half the turians in the game looked half finished.

You can look at vidya two ways as a product and as artistic expression

If a product is being overcriticized tjat ,means it doesn't live up to the expectations of the consumer and is therefore a faulty product

As an artist you should be your harshest critic because at the end of the day YOU decide what everyone else sees, if they're overly critical to you then that means you weren't critical enough to your own work.

No I don't think much artistic expression goes into what EA does, I'm mostly saying that being overly critical on a massive scale doesn't exist.

I played it for like 50 hours, I didn't think it was terrible or anything liked traveling the different planets in the car, liked the combat improvements, didn't like how they practically removed most of the actual roleplaying,didn't like scanning planets or the awful process of going from planet to planet back and forth to do quests, cast wasn't unlikable but somewhat bland.

Would give it like a high 6 or a low 7 out of 10.

Bioware hasn't produced anything good in so long.
ME2 was the begining of the end, but a lot of people like it as a guilty pleasure (myself included).
Some people would say they've been bad since ME1.

But only the most zealous of diehard fans would defend anything DA2 and onward.
So let's see
>Dragon Age II
>Star Wars: The Old Republic
>Mass Effect 3
>Dragon Age: Inquisition
>Mass Effect: Andromeda
5 games in a row, absolute disasters.
6 years of mockery.
The fact it's taken this long to start taking a toll on the confidence of the company is shocking.

Yes. Andromeda manages to have the best gameplay in the series (albeit still a bit clunky and the mouse controls are trash), a few great sidequests, and a solid cast of supporting characters.

I never saw the Mass Effect series as anything but mediocre so that's probably why I don't see this game as some unholy aboriton.

I'm not a mass effect fanboy. I played all the games and complained about things I didnt like in every one of them.

Still, I think first one was fun shooter with rpg elements. I was angry about lazy writting and universe mostly.

Second one was more of the same, better shooting, worse story. I hated the plotholes.

Third one... Well... I finished it once. It's just pretty standard cover shooter. And the ending, shit, let's just change the subject before I rant, and I DIDNT EVEN LIKE THE SERIES. I just feel fucking angry when I see such blatant "fuck you, you gave the money already so just suck that, we don't even care".

When I try to imagine how a serious fan felt like when he seen that ending I just... Can't.


And Andromeda? I pirated it. I will never give them a fucking penny. And for the first hours I REALLY WANTED TO HAVE FUN.

Then I realized it's just a fucking clone of the third game with fucked up animations... But that's the least.

Also I'm not angry that game crashed all the time. And not for invisible escape pod on my ship, so everytime when I talked with pebee she was levitating in space.

No, I'm not even angry about crew members cloning themselves during dialogue, at one time I had like 7 krogans walking around my ship.

But tech problems are not important.

No, I'm angry that on fucking FIVE planets you visit in WHOLE FUCKING CLUSTER (I wont even touch why fucking star cluster looks like a spiral galaxy, they were just too lazy) EVERYWHERE ARE THE SAME 3 genuses of animals. That Kett are fucking stupid, non scary and just one big cliche of a viliain, not even one thing about them is original and their behavior and plans are idiotic at least. That the only intelligent race in the cluster is not only a humanoid, but of course they have to share our ethics.

I would write a lot more, but there's not enough space. So..

I REALLY TRIED TO HAVE FUN. I'M SO SORRY. IT WAS ONE OF THE WORST EXPERIENCES IN LAST FEW YEARS.

Typically, the lower option on the right side of the wheel was a renegade response, and all the red responses were renegade.

Regardless, both games had renegade shepard be an asshole, sometimes a racist asshole. You literally shot a guy who was just your fanboy, you punched the shit out of a reporter and arbitrarily harmed or insulted numerous other people. Stop being a contrarian dipshit and pretending otherwise.

Complete horseshit, the game was always very organized about the morality of options, when applicable. top right was always paragon, bottom right was always renegade, for conversations with applicable responses. This doesn't apply to infodumps and the like, of course.

And no, the turian racism in ME1 was ALWAYS a renegade option.

You know what? I actually had hopes for ME:A.

I mean, I knew they would fuck it up for sure, but man.

I just wanted to shoot some misunderstood tribals like humans in James Cameron' Avatar.

I just wanted to feel like a star trek federation tier with GIGANTIC technical superiority. You know, because your tech is downgraded Reaper tech, so it should be, well, good or almost the best?
As Reapers had almost INFINITE TIME to perfect it?
(and they wanted it to be the best, so organics use it FOR SURE, so during the harvest they can use the loopholes they installed in it)

NO. FUCKING ANGARANS MADE BETTER GUNS THAN REAPERS. BEING HUNTED FOR FUCKING GENERATIONS, ON THE VERGE OF COLLAPSING, THEY STILL MADE AT LEAST COMPARABLE TECH.

Eeeehh....

Hey, you know what? We're flying with colonization mission into the unknown. It will take 600 years, there will be no coming back.

Let's not take any military ships with us. No military-grade ship-to-ship weapons at all.

What's the worst that can happen?

Don't even ask me about Salarian Ark, that shit was so stupid I can't even comprehend.

Hey, let's fuck up our entire race (and give them very painful death) in this region of space for some really shady chance for, well, some cons against the enemy, maybe, in the future?

SUUUUURE.

Still, there's one moment I liked. Just one.

When you do Peebee loyalty mission, at the end, there's moment where you can be RENEGADE and just shoot the bitch in the back, solving the problem there and now.

That's only moment from the game I actually remember. Still, It was fun that Peebee, which was at least somewhat romantically involved with the bitch, just got over that. Just like that, not even an angry reaction.
Damn, you blue hoe, I just shoot your past lover in the back, you're cold.

>>388225940
Yes and no. The game did have issues, but they were mostly goofy animations or models glitching out. I've been playing through Andromeda over the last few weeks, and it's really not a terrible game overall. It's written poorly and just kind of dull, which one could argue is the greatest sin a game can commit, but I think it's a bit of a leap to say it's actually a bad game. The combat is fun, and having the freedom to kind of build your own custom class is neat, and the little jump jet thing makes traversing areas a little more fun, plus it adds a cool dodging/rushing element to combat. It has good ideas in it, but the framework around it needed a lot more time.

If the game had been delayed 6 months and was released in the state it's in right now, it still would have been a disappointment for most fans, but it would have just come and gone, probably sold a bit better, and then nobody would even remember it in a year or two. Instead it's now another black mark on Bioware and EA.

It's just a shot in the dark, but I think EA genuinely believes that Bioware can compete with other big RPG studios (of which there are quite a few nowadays, since everything with fucking stats counts as RPG to normies), OR they're scared of terminating Bioware, because they'll be left without an "RPG Divison" and then they won't have the means to compete with Bethesda, CDPR, Squeenix etc.

Sabotage is what EA does. They cut the budget for each fame andexpect better returns. Not to mention the media tie ins for promotion. They squeeze franchises and close studios that don't keep up.

You're an idiot. He was picked because he had the most delegates. If they didn't choose him, than it would just piss of the voters who favored him, not the Republican committee. Lets talk about how that cunt Shillary stole the primary from the Burn-outs. Or how Shillary was snubbed for first time around when the DNC picked Obama instead of her even though she had more delegates. No one is going to have a cucked wife of an ex-president of the free world be the leader of it. She kept running because she thought she deserves it.

Shillary would had been the worst for this country.

Counterpoint: Bioware/EA set the standard for Mass Effect games with the original trilogy. When you follow up a series of 8/10-7/10 games with a 5/10 sequel, people are going to be rightfully harsher on it than they would have with some no name game by some no name developer. If Andromeda was a new IP that didn't carry Bioware's name, people wouldn't have criticized it nearly as much.

You don't get to rightfully complain about unreasonable expectations or people "overcriticizing" your game when you exploit the brand of the IP and developer to market the game.

>>388225940
the fact they are saying this and drawing attention to the game again means we didn't criticize it hard enough. we should've bitched it out so hard they never mention it again

I actually wonder if it isn't because of the backlash they'd get if they shut down Bioware. Bioware isn't like the previous studios they've shut down. The name is fucking huge. Shutting down Bioware would be like Activision shutting down Blizzard. The collective outcry and autistic tantrums would cause an 8.0 earthquake.

YOU KILLED MY FAVORITE GAME SERIES!!!

>>388256091
nope, they claim that the solution is to have even more diversity than before

Shit animation aside, I think the real problem was the same issue Halo had when they moved the series over to 343.
It was made by fans who tried to copy what made the originals good without understanding why they made those things good.

The movie night you have with your crew in Andromeda is the perfect example of this.
Prior to release the devs went on and on about how they wanted to have cool bonding moments like shooting shit with Garrus in ME3.
They tried to replicate that bonding with the movie night scene. What they failed to understand was:
1: Garrus's scene worked because you'd been through three games of adventures with him. The Andromeda team had yet to earn that.
2: It wasn't built up before hand. It was just Garrus asking if Shepard wanted to go hang out for a bit.
The movie night on the other hand was built up over the course of the entire fucking game. From when it was first mentioned it could take you 50 hours to actually reach it, and you had to run a dozen fetch quests in between to get popcorn and shit.
If it had just been Liam saying "let's watch some movies" and then it jumped straight into it, that could have been cool. But instead the devs spent ages trying to build it up as this cool "Garrus moment', and it ended up losing all impact.

Andromeda is absolutely full of things like that.
