Quick question for Andromeda.
But does the game set up in a way that side quests will disappear if you go to far into the main quests?
Also, if you do, do they give some kind of warning that you're about to go past the point of no return?

Quick /meg/ I need your help!

I'm not amazing at games, I'm indecisive, and since I'm working two jobs now I don't have much time for Vidya.

What's a good difficulty that provides a decent level of difficulty, but won't be a tedious grind with me dying every engagement?

Which class or playstyle is the most fun? I feel like Infiltrator or Vanguard would be great.
>>
>>171985461

If you are talking about Andromeda, you can just combine those.
>>
>>171985461

Isn't standard Widow or a that Angaran one shot rifle better simply because they one shot basically everything?

There are no classes in this game, you basically build your own and can use multiple classes per playthrough.

I honestly can't decide whether to save the angara or destroy the facility. I really don't know which strikes a bigger blow to the Kett. It's a pretty good choice they've forced you to make in my opinion. I would guess saving the Angara hurts more, since the Kett will just rebuild the temple.
>>
>>171986280
>How many new techs/biotics?

Don't remember, but I do remember some powers have been replaced by others (Warp is out for example).

>Are there still non-biotic explosions a la 3?

They are. Ryder explicitly says that they're not just angarans (though angarans make up the common foot soldiers) and that the 'exalted' include other species as well. They're not robotic either, scanning them has SAM assure you that they're fully organic and even their armor is bone-like.

Well, there are 2.5 million light years between earth and andromeda, maybe with an insane futuretech mass effect telescope you could get a reading on how a planet was 2.5 million years ago.

For reference, that would be a reading from the time the earliest hominids evolved, so fairly accurate climactic reading baring extraterrestrial messing.

So Quarian Ark construction was delayed, and they launched somewhere in 2186 before Reaper invasion, so if they launched before they probably passed by main Reaper force. At the end of the game you get to listen to Quarian ark warning call telling not to investigate them, so are reapers in andromeda? I would imagine a couple scouts at least would take an interest in the ship leaving the galaxy

It makes sense. The Andomeda Initiative was massive in scope and the Reapers had to have been aware of it.

Yeah Geth make more sense than the Reapers.

The Initiative used the Geth telescopes to search for worlds in Andromeda. Surely the Geth were aware of that and just let them do it. Possibly to hitch a ride for themselves as a contingency plan for their species in the event of the Reapers.

So devs are apparently taking the complaints over the lack of gay shit seriously.

The Angara are kind of assholes. When Bioware said they were very "free" with their emotions, I was imagining melodramatic and flamboyant. Instead they are very blunt and willing to be rude.

I'm not complaining. In fact I give Bioware credit for capturing the uncomfortable feeling one would expect to get when you talk to an alien from another culture.

Is it? It's not like they won't find another Pathfinder.
I bet they would already have Candidates in the waiting.

Then there's the long term to consider:
Salarians have short lifespans so even if you save her she's got a couple decades of pathfinding at best before she kicks the bucket.

Krogan Scouts on the other hand could still be scouting around for centuries.

That's where you're wrong kiddo. The position is important. Look at Tann as an example, the wrong person in an extremely important position.

The original Pathfinders were the top .001% of their species in terms of ability and leadership. Losing them is bad.

Krogans are generally retarded anyway. As many people already said, krogans can get shit done but they always fuck it up afterwards, if they weren't the most retarded race in the galaxy they'd have a very good life and probably be the best race. Even Wrex admits this himself.

It's alright.

It's not stellar. There are a lot of small mistakes, some more noticeable than others. The writing isn't going to win a Pulitzer by any standard. If you go in expecting a masterpiece, you'll be disappointed.

However, if you're not anal retentive about the content you choose to enjoy, then as a whole you're probably going to have a good time with it. I'd wait until it's on sale, or buy it discounted. It's definitely a $30 or $45 game, not $60.

This. Alec Ryder was N7. I'm sure each of the pathfinders for all the arks are in similar positions. A single trained Pathfinder is far more important than a few dozen scouts.

Without SAM, Scott/Sara would have been absolute failures as pathfinder and they were a replacement.

Honestly, it does piss me off how well all the races get along on the Nexus and settlements. I mean you can't even put different humans in a room together without them fighting (think about a convo between a muslim, white western beta male, a tranny, some gay girl from russia)

In the trail of hope quest line, I've been sent to Voeld to meet up with the resistance and take down the impenetrable Kett fortress.

Problem is I've basically completed Voeld already and what I'm assuming is a cutscene where you meet the resistance isn't playing at the quest marker. Has anyone experienced this glitch? How do I proceed?

His Voice sucks and he's Udina-lite. The Actor's Indian accent interferes too often and just makes Tann sound weird.

I don't really give a fuck about the money, I have lots of disposable income. I mainly want to know if it's as bad as /v/ makes it out to be or if they are just sperging out over some shitty animations and models. Is the game at least roughly on par with ME3?

All of the memes coming from this game were from the 10 hour trial. More than the animations its the PC performance that sucks the most dick. The game is not lacking in content. I think ive done over a hundred side quests, many that are simply hidden and unlocked by talking to people or exploring. Its an easy 7.5/10

Your initial meeting tends to lend him as the sort of pragmatic guy who has his priorities in the right place. But the more you interface with him the more you realize that he is a corporate shill that is in over his head and who no longer sees people as people. Just things he has to deal with.

He's the equivalent of making a burger king manager the president of the US

It's been quite a while since I've played ME3, so I can't make that judgement with any reasonable quality.
>is it as bad as /v/ makes it out to be
AS bad? No. But the animation issues and models very definitely exist and you WILL encounter them at some point or another.

Also the other anon is right, PC performance does blow pretty hard. The memory leak is the worst of it, but I'll also get framedrops during cutscenes and combat.

No. If you even remotely enjoyed the three previous games you will have a fun time with this one because it borrows heavily from them but has very good combat and enjoyable exploration.

Spending ages in space scanning planets with fucked up animations that do nothing but waste time.

Why the fuck is almost no1 wearing helmets or armor?

Yeah the planet has no oxygen and is pretty shit but that annoying asari whore doesnt need anything to breath and walks around with an exposed belly. kk

Controls are annoying as fuck. Why do i need to press 2 buttons to close the map.

Pretty much. Gear determines a large part of it but objectives also play a roll. You get 100 points every few seconds for being on a a download, 2000 if you complete it and 500 when you shut down an enemy device.

>>171999076
Score doesn't matter too much. Everyone recieves the same rewards at the end. Just make sure you get through each wave as fast as possible (prioritize objectives and protecting those doing objectives over killing)

Score is a big indicator of how often people are contributing to kills, but isnt always a good indicator of those doing objectives. Especially so on Gold where you'll see people with 24k+ score but no objective medals at the end.

Mass Effect 2's beauty was that it was a filler chapter that did not matter. Take a look at the Geth and the Quarians for example. If you were never given a Geth party member to dick around with- when the time came between choosing which race to side with. You would have just gone Quarian- the choice wouldn't have mattered and there would be no gravity behind it.

Likewise, everyone would have cured the Krogan Genophage if we didn't have Mordin there posing the argument that it was justified and lending us to like his race.

Sure Mass Effect 3 didn't capitalize on shit as strongly as it could have but Tachunka was an amazing world just becaus everything came to a head there.

The reapers were a pretty great setup for a villain, just probably not a good match for a third person shooter. What was shepard gonna do, use incinerate on a sentient spaceship the size of a city? Every single confrontation with them had to be in a cutscene and thus unsatisfying, or direct like the end boss of 2 and thus ridiculous.

Sovereign only worked because of Saren, talking to Sovereign for the first time was pretty fucking terrifying but finding out that huge ship WAS a Reaper? What the fuck. How are you supposed to fight that or get the player to care?

>>
>>172001445
Please. They could have done a standard ending where beating the reapers hinged on uniting all the races instead of going all dark and artsy to generate SPECULATION. It would have fit the theme of cooperation instead of domination perfectly and would have given every shepard a chance to reap what he sowed throughout the trilogy.

That's literally the only way you can end something once you've created a villain that is eldar god status. Deus Ex Machina is the only way from a storypoint of view.

No it's fucking not.
All we knew of the reapers was from sovereign who we fucking killed in ME1. That alone set the reapers up to be mortal if incredibly powerful and timeless machines. Again, it fits the theme of cooperation over domination. Adding the Geth alliance in as a crucial factor for a perfect ending also carries the theme of synthetics cooperating with organics.

All of these incredibly small leaps within the story would have resulted in an infinitely better ending than massive grand canyon sized leap that was LOL CATALYST LOL GOD KID R/G/B BUY DLC GOY ending we got.

I'm not debating that they couldn't have come up with a better big bad than the reapers, but the reapers were the smallest problem the story had.
>>
>>172002404
I think they work as that, but the problem was that ME3 gave you a first hand account of how lame they are.
>Entire reaper force can't beat 1 stupid fucking planet in a reasonable amount of time

They alluded to this in ME1 even, how the prothean VI emphasized that it took generations and they were absolutely thorough. It makes sense because they can't die and without the mass relays they could just slowly kill off every living thing in every inhabited area around the relays. Fun to hear about, but in practice, first hand it's boring.

The Reapers are the entire reason for the asspull. Sovereign was one fucking Reaper it took the entire Alliance fleet and the Citadel fleet to kill it. Which also severely crippled which ever fleet you chose. The Reapers were never labeled as defeatable ever. The wonder weapon was built during ME3, the alliances are forged in ME3 in order to build the wonder weapon. Not to defeat the Reapers.

The asspull was the only way they could've made a "happy ending" the real ending is the Reapers eating everyone and then going back to sleep in dark space.

I'm at 88% with 64 hours and I just finished the main story and I agree with Gamespot's 6/10 review.

The combat can be fun but the gunplay is not up to par with current games. All the guns felt slow and unresponsive no matter how I modded them or built my character. The active cover system was also a huge pain in the ass often not registering many objects as cover or somehow allowing enemies to shoot me while in full cover.

I also felt that the writing in the main story was boring, predictable, cliche, and full of constant plotholes requiring either sheer coincidence, dumb luck, or ryder to walk in and use AI wizardry to clean everything up with very little satisfying buildup or explanation. Most of the conflicts that happen can be simplified by saying "The kett do something dumb, ryder walks in, says "im the pathfinder" then SAM casts a spell and all the bad guys either die or run away". Terrible pacing with 6 missions of act I, one of act 2, one of act 3. It was paced terribly.

It also reuses tons of plot and story points from Mass Effect 1. Once again a human who is somehow better than everyone at everything has waltzed into an unfamiliar galaxy fish out of water setting with nameless faceless bad dude and an evil guy who exists solely to be evil that are just a distraction till the real ancient evil shows up, and there's a mysteriously absent ancient race who left behind ancient tech that helps the hero win against insurmountable odds. It wasn't done nearly as well as it was done in Mass Effect 1 and felt more like a first draft of a fanfiction.

Many of the narrative based side missions fall prey to being derivative as hell too. With such a massive galaxy it's hard to believe that there were so many people related to characters related to the OT characters, or had worked on projects or for corporations that you saw in the OT. While many of these stories were interesting by the end it just felt derivative and lazy.

Speaking of the nameless faceless bad dude and an evil guy who exists solely to be evil, he was one of the worst villains I've ever seen. He does nothing the entire game except shake his fist at ryder the very very few times they interact, and has no character arc or motivations except being evil for the sake of evil and doing dumb things to move the plot along and then in the most anti-climactic final boss fight since Fable II he literally just up and dies after you hack 3 terminals. What a fucking joke.

Speaking of poorly written, lets talk about the Angora. All the races in the OT had huge backstories, cultures, wars, loves, and hatreds for each other with various fleshed out reasons why. Take a look at the Angora and it falls pretty short. They only know the scourge attacked them 800 years ago and the Kett attacked them 80 years ago. Literally no other history or back story or lore besides that. Their culture doesn't compare to the cultures of other races. They're basically humans with big families who talk about their emotions a lot. That's it. They are pointless and forgettable. Even the Elcor were deeper and more fleshed out.

A lot of the classes are weird in this game. Like most of the time you're better off ditching their gimmick and using them as any standard character.
>>
The Ryder twins are alright, but... they'll never be better than Commander Shepard.

Everything in this game is canonically lamer than everything from the OT. They doomed themselves with the very premise of this game.

The dialogue was mostly average but for every moment of great dialogue that was funny, sweet, clever, or painful, there were two more that were cringy, poorly written, and stupid. The dialogue was so bad at parts that it was almost insulting. The dialogue wheel felt more like 4 different tones to say the same thing unless you had to make a choice between two things, which was basically paragon v renegade all over again without the fun of interrupting conversations or feeling like you had any effect whatsoever. I honestly feel that the dialogue wheel changes were the worst part of the game and severely stripped away the ability to feel like YOU were making choices greater than "say something uplifting in a serious voice""say something uplifting in a friendly voice""say something uplifting in a silly voice""say something uplifting in a professional voice".

As with the dialogue lots of voice acting was great, but lot's of it was phoned in with a few scenes feeling like a sound engineer stitched together parts of multiple sentences to make a new one. It was very inconsistent. The dialogue wheel also caused characters to wildly change emotional tone in the middle of conversations resulting in absolutely bipolar exchanges

The soundtrack was basically unnoticeable, which is pretty bad coming from a series with such a recognizable and unique soundtrack.

I could go on for hours about the faults in this game, such as how it drowned in tacked on mechanics like scanning or crafting that everyone learned were garbage in 2014, or the terrible animations, constant graphical glitches, or game breaking bugs that honestly shouldn't exist in a $40,000,000 game by a AAA studio, but I've already invested over 60 hours and I'm really just done with it. I'm too tired of this game to even finish listing my problems with it in this post. It wasn't horrible, it wasn't great, it was just okay. It deserved its 6/10 and I hope they hire better people to work on sequel

(3/3)

Yes exactly, the wrote themselves into a fucking corner. You say i'm retarded but look in the mirror. Do you forget the fucking cutscene of thousands of Reapers attacking one planet? It took one to almost take out the Citadel.

Reapers are fucking terrible in their execution in the story, their concept is a great. All powerful beings that rest outside the galaxy.

YOU DONT HAVE THEM INVADE THE GALAXY TO EAT EVERYTHING.

I'm just worried ME: Andromeda 2 & 3 are just going to be the same exact game again and again.

i.e. another ancient evil race awakens and threatens the Andromeda galaxy, you must defend your colonizing effort!
>>
>>172003853
The crucible/catalyst wasn't retarded in itself, it was handled in a retarded way.

They literally just needed to make it a reaper genocide laser and no one would have batted an eye at the ending.
>>
The biggest fuck up they made was removing the renegade options. It felt SO fucking good and empowering when you took Rengade options in the original trilogy. Sure some of them were dumb, but not all of them were.

Maybe you should read more sci-fi, or amateur humanity fuck yeah pastas, or watch star trek for gods sake. There are literally, LITERALLY a millions ways you can resolve an ungodly invasion from outer space in a satisfactory way and none of them include an ass pull consisting of a cannon build within the last 3 hours of the war, a retarded holo-kid, or dissolving your body to emit colored lightning that shuts them down.

>>172004093
i was surprised how few of those, click actions their were

>>172004040
>They literally just needed to make it a reaper genocide laser

That's the Destroy ending for the asspull, did you play ME3?

You can't handle that kind of villain any other way, apart from having an even more ancient and powerful thing come and stop them.

In Lord of the Rings the people of middle earth don't fucking fight the Maia and other insane gods. The bad guy is just some left over lackey, who is very strong in comparison to everyone else but not unstoppable.

The Reapers were written as unstoppable gods, blame the ME1 writers.

My biggest problem as well. They removed the roleplay from this RPG.

Go ahead turbo nerd, waiting or how to resolve AI Elder Gods.

Would you guys be down to see another Thorian in the ME: Andromeda galaxy or not really because it would detract from its uniqueness in ME1?

I'm trying to think of anything they could throw into Andromeda to spice it up at this point...
>>
>>172004221
I think you're both right. They could've resolved it far better but it was always going to be shit.

>It took one to almost take out the Citadel.
No one was prepared for them, the universe's greatest spectre was commanding a geth army, and Sovereign wasn't trying to take over the citadel, he was just trying to dock with it, which he failed at spectacularly. The reapers were always beatable, I don't even know where you're getting this.

>>172003929
I feel like the romances are kind of hard to get a bead on, progression-wise. I just finished Jaal's loyalty mission and nothing's happened. We're apparently still in "special friend" territory, despite the relationship so far only extending to him touching my face and sending me a single very soppy, fluffy email.

Did you? That ending destroys all synthetic life meaning the geth bros are dead if you go that route after you allied them and forged peace between them and the quarians thinking they'd have some big input on the final battle. It's not just a reaper genocide laser. The catalyst is faulty because every theme is wrapped up in advance of getting to the end, then god kid just opens it up again for reasons when it should have been a clean finale. Ending would have been fine if it was just kill the reapers, the end.

Congrats that's the Control ending. Still an asspull.

Only way to end something like the Reapers with a happy ending is with an asspull.

Kill or Control they both go away don't they? Kinda convenient, making them go away is as good as killing them with an asspull genocide laser.

Why are you defending such a terrible villain? Having the reapers just send indoctrination baddies at us to fuck with the galaxy. But the ME writers fucked up.
