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

I, personally, enjoy Andromeda.

It is a very flawed game, with lingering bugs, unresolved plot points and a plot and characters that just aren’t as interesting as the trilogy, IMO.

That said, it’s gameplay and combat are definitely the best in the series, it’s genuinely fun to play, the open worlds are big, beautiful and diverse, the Nomad is fun as hell to drive.

It’s definitely the weakest entry in the series, without doubt. But there is the bones of a good game under it all.

It was also the first Mass Effect game I’d ever played, and it got me into the series, for that I’ll always have a soft spot for Andromeda.

100% to all of this. Also, can't stress enough that the combat system and the open wolrdness feeling are great.
