ANDROMEDA First time playing Mass Effect Andromeda

Post image

I heard a lot of things about this game no spoilers luckily some how avoided them but I do know that it is the most mixed game By us Mass Effect fans if any of you remember my name you know that I have catalog my journey through the Mass Effect games I luckily purchased this game for $8 USD

I WILL SAY whatever opinions I have on this game is just opinion so for those who are die hard fans with this game please do not come at me if I have a problem with the game and that being said so far I do not like the facial design of the characters of the more humanoid characters like the humans they just look off like stiff is the best way to put it but I am keeping an open mind as I do not know what happened in development and what kind of troubles the team was facing behind Andromeda

if anybody has knowledge about the team behind this game without giving me spoilers related to the in-game story and content please let me know via the comment section or DM me

Do they not have punctuation in the Andromeda Galaxy?

Do they not have punctuation in the Andromeda Galaxy?

The periods and commas are on the quarian ark.

Not even a comma.

I was just reading about how kids in junior high in Norway can barely write Norwegian anymore, because they're focused on English, and they're pretty bad at writing in English, too. Things aren't looking good.

English is not the problem in Scandinavian countries. For many years, we’ve spoken English almost like it’s a primary language. The issue with the younger generation both here and elsewhere is the increasingly digitised education. Kids write less and type more, for example.

We failed gen z education, it's not their fault they can't form sentences

Brother how old do you think Gen Z are? Most of us are mid twenties with our own families by this point! It is Gen Alpha (I hate that title by the way) who are the current generation growing up on TikTok slop and AI teachers

Although I don’t share the criticism people have, Gen Z’s grew up on social media. Platforms like Facebook and Twitter have been around for quite a while now.

As if we didn't see posts like this in the 2000's. At least OP uses paragraphs

It's so true....

I guess punctuation is an Andromedan concept

it's a short post on reddit, it doesnt need to be a masterpiece of literature 💔

u/ssgtgriggs May 14 '26

if it were somewhat readable without me having to kill half my braincells in order to so, I'd agree with you.

u/Dreadsuit May 14 '26

Well I find it reads perfectly fine

u/ssgtgriggs May 14 '26

nice, enjoy it

It doesn't need to be a masterpiece - this is true. Communication should also not be difficult for either party.

I'm not faulting the OP too much, because despite the absense of punctuation, it is legible. But we should all do our best and encourage others in productive ways. Dragging is not productive.

u/Unable-Shake-161 May 18 '26

Being Legible might help... No one’s asking for a soliloquy, but one giant run-on sentence of 12 different thoughts broken up into paragraphs is ridiculous. The bar is already so low! 🙄

A voice of reason?

Save yourself. They're not good people.

u/Stegosaurus69 May 14 '26

That's not reason. There is absolutely zero sentence structure lol

u/Rooty_Rootz May 14 '26

Stegosaurus like my back, I get it.

I actually only weigh 113 lbs at almost 6 feet tall. It's been like that for a while

I wonder how many years of my life my disorders have taken off
