    As someone said, "A game that is once again hit with the bandwagon of people who hate on a game because everyone else is." It's funny when someone rates the game low because of animation and faces. How about interesting and epic story, new races, jet packs, that makes combat system more flexible than previous parts of ME? How about amazing music? Good optimization? Good graphic (excludingAs someone said, "A game that is once again hit with the bandwagon of people who hate on a game because everyone else is."

    Multiplayer is also interesting, but there are few maps. Anyway, i bought this game not for MP.

    I think, that it's really good game.    … Expand

    TLDR: This is a decent RPG. it's sci-fi and contains a lot of content to shoot through. it has puzzles, a good story, romance, and of course lots of aliens to go shoot. That's a good game.

    I actually think this game gets 10/10 but for the lack of polish. Long version: This is my favorite mass effect game.

    I actually think this game gets 10/10 but for the lack of polish.

    Long version:

    This is my favorite mass effect game. It has the character customization and exploration of ME and ME3, the tight levels of ME 2 and ME3, the multiplayer of ME3 and it's Mass Effect through and through.

    You get to make choices that impact the game and the narrative.

    I found it lack some polish. I don't like falling through the ground in the Tempest or on planets, I don't think the facial animations are great, and the game is a bit on the long side - over 80 hours for me trying to do everything.

    But in the end, I have fun. It's a good RPG customization of weapons and builds. You can level up all your squad mates to the max and you can make yourself into an unstoppable killing machine.

    The puzzles are fun if you like Sudoku - I do. If you don't, you can buy key fragments to get around them.

    The multiplayer is fast-paced and fun and there is no "team deathmatch" or "battle royale" mode - thank God!

    In the end, I recommend this game to any Mass Effect fan. it is the best of the series by far. I actually cannot believe this game gets 3/10 or 0/10 by some people. It's not a perfect game, but it does so much right that I think 8/10 is fair.

    I picked this game up in 2021 and I really enjoyed it. Come to Andromeda and explore, adventure awaits.    … Expand

    Once I got into it I really enjoyed the game play and the progression. There are quite a few bugs and parts That seem kind of not fully fleshed-out but overall I enjoyed it quite a bit.

    Ok, it's not as good as the previous chapters but cmon...for a first chapter of a trilogy (that now is canceled, thank you **** haters) it's a really good game.
    Ok there are bugs and glitches but there were even in the others game...so all this hate is only cancer fandom, not real reviews; mass effect saga wasn't perfect on the technical side.

    The plot is really interesting, maybe Ryder is not the most amazing character but it was supposed to be part of a trilogy.
    The crew is AWESOME, interesting characters more developed than the previous ones of the first mass effect game (be careful, not saga but in comparison to the first chapter of ME).
    People (stupid ones) compare this game to the whole saga...NO!!! you must compare It with the first game of the saga because Andromeda was supposed to be the START of a new trilogy, and as a first game It was really good.    … Expand

    Beautiful game, not as good as the trilogy (We all miss Shepard), but it’s nice to discover a new galaxy.

    I was hyped for this game cause i loved Mass Effect 3 which was the first part i played, but i played it so much, especially the multiplayer. In my opinion the best coop wave defend like game i ever played. And that is the main reason why Andromeda didnt had the same success imo. I cant really explain why but it didn't was the same anymore.

The game constantly felt a bit laggy and the maps were too small for this new big enemies especially when u play in gold or platinum u didn't had even space. They just should it done like ME3. They literally could copy the game with new content and better graphics and it would be perfect. Still a good game btw… Expand

    Probably the best example of the genre, the Mass Effect games were a grand space opera that nigh on perfectly blended shooting, RPG style exploration and story telling. Andromeda continues in the same vein but starts from scratch in a new galaxy with a new story arc and new set of characters, As such it doesn't have the same immersive feel of the previous two instalments and the story andProbably the best example of the genre, the Mass Effect games were a grand space opera that nigh on perfectly blended shooting, RPG style exploration and story telling.

Having said all that, it's still an extremely playable and fun space-bound adventure...it just doesn't have the je ne sais quoi that marked the last two outings.… Expand

    It just needs some polish. The combat is amazing and the story is engaging. And there is a lot of content. I put in over 50 hours and I am still not done with the main story. There are some bugs but nothing that is game stopping. Well worth the bargain price it is now for a fun few hours

    could have been so much more epic as the first mass effect trilogy but it just wasn't as good as its predecessor.

    It might be the biggest, most complex and action packed game in the franchise, but Mass Effect: Andromeda is also the least convincing one. The dated facial animations, the inconsistent writing quality and the regularly occurring bugs take you out of the experience too often. On top of that, BioWare has not used the concept of a whole new universe to its full potential, which often makes it feel like Mass Effect: Andromeda has not left our Milky Way at all.

    While it’s underwhelming in places, there’s a lot to like as you venture into the weirder parts of Andromeda. Frequent technical issues hamper the experience a bit, as does an uninspiring main story. [June 2017, p66]

    A welcome, if slightly patch return for Mass Effect. The script has problems, but combat is bloody brilliant. [May 2017, p.62]
