Relax ye dimwits. These types of bugs and technical issues are pretty common in pre-releases, as most teams tend to wait until the very end of development to root them out and patch things up. Just another example of "still not ready for prime time" up until it's official release, and the-

>game comes out tomorrow in north america, and a couple days in the e.u.
>"In the weeks leading up to the title's release, Mass Effect: Andromeda received criticism and mockery from many fans regarding the game's character, facial animations, and rendering; with many noting that during cut-scenes, characters looked robotic and overall poorly animated (ranging from their movements to models)."
>"BioWare staff responded to the issue, saying that there were no current plans to improve animations but implied that it was in the realm of possibility for future patches."

Well, fuck my shit then.

>The krogan performs a headbutt animation, doesn't hit the woman's head with any part of his body - not even his shoulder.
>The woman doesn't even look at the krogan after she glasses at him. Her animation ends and she is left staring dumbly into space, her face frozen.
>When she glasses the krogan, the glass explodes into gigantic shards several times the size of the object she smashed.
>When the explosion of glass happens on the table, it's after her arm has impacted it and before her head has hit it. In fact, her head never hits the table.
>There is no obvious source of the explosion on the table. What is being smashed? Is the glass bottle on the table being smashed? If so, why does it continue to exist after the explosion?
>The salarian doesn't have a chair to sit down on. He's actually squatting on this air.

The number of layers in that single animation are astounded. It's like a case study of awful animation.
>>
Why would the devs care when blinded fans buy the game anyway?
You seriously think the EA that butchered so many multi million franchises for fast and easy money would care to increase the quality of it's published games?

I blame consoles and this new ideology on PC of preordering the games in millions of units so after they hit a certain number they get rushed out like diarrhea.

there's a reason why GTA games are so fucking expensive to produce - they do it right.

>>1600265 occurs during an ordinary exposition dump. There's no reason for her to look anywhere near as confused as she does.

If I'm going to pay a company money for a game, I would hope that its a game without halfassed animation and voice acting.

I have done animation, hell I even did a two year course of it at university. The final projects that students that had only started animation when the course started (and there were such individuals) had better facial animation than this.

Its not fully a matter of wonky animation anymore. The animation team just didn't give two shits, and they expect you to pay them for it.

So you would have preferred if ME just stayed a quasi-RPG where every time you come back to town you sell 100 pistols that you looted from enemies and carried around in your imaginary satchel? Or was it riding around on empty planets in your dune buggy that you miss the most?

It wasn't the RPG elements or the character writing or the relationships. It was the atmosphere created by being the eccentric new guy nobody believed in chasing conspiracy theories and exploring the oldest parts of the galaxy looking for a lost civilisation.
ME2, while good in its own right, stripped all of this out in favour of badass power fantasy interstellar space renegade banging alien chicks and taking matters into his own hands 'for the good of the galaxy'. It was thematically inept and while the gameplay mechanics were much better it pushed the snowball down the road of corridor shooting and waifus and away from compelling space opera.

>>1602333
Facial animations can be fairly hardware intensive, though. Since you have to deform the mesh (in this case: the face) in a variety of ways; which can also take longer than animating a body or simpler meshes (and even if it didn't -- you're still adding more workload). Animators tend to have rigs capable of rendering and animation necessary for these jobs, as opposed consumer gaming computers and consoles, who much of the time aren't capable without losing performance. You would also need separate animations and files for whatever scenes that are required, which can easily take up space on the disc. Still, games like Witcher 3 manage to pull them off. And Valve has had Hollywood quality facial animations since Half-Life 2. And most of the problems I've been seeing with Mass Effect: Andromeda seems to be the result of the developers becoming overzealous with optimisation; which not only can hurt a good game, but have in the past.
