Mass Effect Andromeda Issues Reports

  Echo57 (@EchoFiveSeven) reported 5 minutes ago

  @Benito_Llan @marewho12 Mass Effect used the excuse of losing contact with a privately funded expedition, although it came with its own problems (somehow unnoticed by FTL-capable humanity despite being around *Alpha Centauri*, and discovered by aliens despite, again, being around Alpha Centauri)

  @CraigHarris456 @Silverbolt_1985 @ashestoashleys Cerberus in ME1 and ME2 may as well be two different organizations and that's the problem. I played a paragon Shep, he was not cool with working with Cerberus and they give you so little agency to voice that. Doesn't feel Mass Effect-y

  @AHalfNickel Not gonna lie, I hate this series. Everyone in it is a complete and unlikable *******, and Mass Effect 2, didn't do anything to fix it. I bought the whole trilogy at once and I almost played the 3rd game just to watch them all die, but I didn't want to waste the time.

  I disagree on this You absolutely can make a new Mass Effect game. There's plenty of ways to go about this. Andromedas issue was not Ryder.. And Andromeda I feel would have been improved with some DLC And I'm very tired of Veilguard being a punching bag in these arguments

  Amazon is ordering major script rewrites for the Mass Effect TV series. They want to modernize it. It’s the same old story where a studio takes a loved universe and starts hacking away at it because they think they know better than the source material. I want to enjoy a space opera without a lecture. Especially one where I’m not wondering if the writers even liked the original game or if they’re just trying to "fix" something that wasn't broken. Usually, when a show gets ordered to undergo massive rewrites to make it more accessible or modern, it just means they're stripping out the soul and the grit that made people care in the first place. Amazon has a habit of doing this to established franchises. We’re likely in for another project that values a message over the actual craftsmanship of the world. Expect the worst.

  @BobWhencer @wwarrior_1 But they love the mass effect in the eyes of EA Mass Effect team can do no wrong, but the dragon age basically is a giant ******* failure to them because there there was a whole article that came out that explained their history of why dragon age games had so many problems

  @AlmsiviSimp I think i'd like to see it "remastered" the same way mass effect was- have more consistent graphics through the cutscenes, fix the ports, declutter some of the combat, and have all 3 games in 1

  Good lord, the fake Mass Effect fans disease is spreading coz WHY would anyone skip Mass Effect 1!? Honestly I feel this is an issue with gaming in general. People see evenba shred of a game showing its age and suddenly it's not worth playing. Idiots.

  @VolkariN7 It would had been a decent start of a trilogy. A lot of kinks and problems could had been fixed in a sequel. Andromeda is a objectively better game than Mass effect 1.

  @TheLocus343 the first picture looks like generic sci-fi place. I could imagine it being the inside walls of the Citadel from mass effect. The second one looks like andromeda's ruin interiors. The issue with H4 is it doesn't have an identity. Like its OST, it could be from anything.

  @SomeWeebDude Oh gosh... That's a real tough one. There's been quite a few over the years. Mass Effect 2/3, Crash Bandicoot Warped, Kirby's Adventure, BF1... Not sure I could pick a favorite.

  @ABasicAlt @kalaelizabeth Because if they crash and burn with a new IP, the Mass Effect title still has value to sell off. I am well aware they are working on the Next Mass Effect game, and I really hope that it won't be awful... but hope in one hand....

  People just need to accept when their stuff just isn’t very good at its core. I didn’t find the gameplay to be the issue with Andromeda, though it could have done with better level design. It was the writing, and many people play Mass Effect for the writing. The plot felt boring to go through and lacked the gravitas that the original Mass Effect had. Things happened, but never did I really think they mattered all that much. That is very much due to the party members, who didn’t feel all that distinctive at all from on another or were just so forgettable beyond their shared snark that I just tuned them out after a while. The dialogue choices themselves lacked any weight because most of the time you just said the same thing, but either as a jerk or a nice person. That makes choosing dialogue a chore, not something you really have to think about. The combat was pretty good though, I’ll give it that, though rather than letting us switch to all classes I’d rather they have much more robust class systems with deeper skills and specializations. That creates much more unique scenarios per playthrough rather than just swapping to whatever at any point in the game. Recognize your faults when people point them out. Dismissing those criticizing it at “chuds” is such a cope you just sound pathetic.

  @MagicMushMM I had no problem with foot missions at all and were welcome additions. I truly love 64, but another remake? Personally, a complete reboot of it that implements stuff from like Mass Effect including recruitment of all or some pilots and loyalty missions of sorts would be awesome.

  @LuisMay23930054 @kalaelizabeth Mass Effect without human-centric story won't work. It's already very generic sci-fi, without humanity's struggle to secure its place it won't feel like Mass Effect. That was one of Andromeda's biggest issues in story and world building

  @HariSel57511397 Wrong. Mass Effect 2 is peak ME. The only problem is it is where Mass Effect watered down the class/skill system to become more palatable to normies.

  An example, you could look at the buggy mess that was Mass Effect Andromeda and go "yeah this game isnt finished" but you would not be a good reference point for how the economy and triggers were broken like myself who hate played 100+ hours of the game to prove a point.

  @nuhre_ He’s not talking about og mass effect fans, he’s talking about people that bashed on Andromeda (and Veilguard) for weird reasons. Both games had issues, but losers were attacking them for things that had nothing to do with what was actually wrong w/ them.

  @brockpierson Elder Scrolls Online, Skyrim or Morrowind or Oblivion, Mass Effect Legendary, Witcher 3, or Cyberpunk 2077. The issue with doing it 12 hours a day if an MMO would be downtime due to maintenance!

  @dionizije_fa @pcgamer I lost respect for Casey Hudson after the botched Mass Effect 3 debacle at launch that took forever to fix. 3 different colored explosions is the culmination of all of your choices throughout the series.

  The issue BioWare has is they are always too quiet. After the fall of the last three games they made, they need to be more transparent. Mass Effect is their last chance, just because it’s a major franchise doesn’t mean anything after all the flops they had. #MassEffect #Bioware

  @Dreamboum Unironically more people need to read Shamus Young's Mass Effect Retrospective to see the problems 2 caused to the overall plot. If you can make it out on the other side of that and still hold your love for the franchise and be able to acknowledge it's flaws, it's so liberating

  @spiral_archtct @Pirat_Nation The writing was really bad, but we can't ignore the technical issues. They were absolutely terrible at launch, like No Man's Sky or Cyberpunk. The only difference is that Mass Effect Andromeda never got its player base back, probably because of the writing.

  @Pirat_Nation Mass effect always was a little woke, but these freaks don't believe in half measures. This is going to be starfleet academy all over again, and its crash and turn is gonna be glorious to witness.

  choosing vanguard instead of infiltrator in #masseffect was a tactical error. Lotta geth

  My problem with Avowed is it feel familiar and while the voice acting is good and even has Garrus from Mass Effect as a companion character the actual story and character are just kinda flat and uninteresting. Not a bad game but also missing....something.

  @DanticsOfficial It wasn’t a bad game but it wasn’t good either Problem is they tried to move away from Sheppard but not enough from Mass Effect. The story/scenario is roughly the same but name swapped to another galaxy That give the impression of a bad OG copy instead of a new game of its own

  @TJPhoenix3 The Reapers are the most advanced civilization we know in Mass Effect. If they couldn't figure it out then how could the current cycle in Mass Effect solve it? Because the problem with this ending is that the galaxy is doomed if the player destroys the Reapers.
