    Dont buy this game. Waste of money. Game is similar to no man's sky. game created by EA and Bioware with glitches, poor dialogue, poor graphic animations. Typical EA style garbage game.Game is done in 50%. Game feels like alpha/beta

Just utter unplayable trash with horrid facial animations, soulless ugly looking human characters, terrible writing and performances, waaaaaay too much busy work(meaningless fetch quests), bad music, trash a.i., boring movement mechanics/animations, awkward interactions with crew members that lead to awkward sex scenes.

    I come to a Mass Effect game to be immersed in a fine crafted believable world and well developed story, not to be bored out of my mind staring at heartless, soulless polygonal abominations that focus either some stupid reason for me to fetch something or how every damn space creature out there wants to bang me(and most of the time I don't want to bang them)    … Expand

    As a old Bioware fan, this game doensn't bring the feels of a great adventure, but a repetitive game, with characters who has to show his sexuality without asking and a bad animation

    Ужасная оптимизация. Ужасно скучно.
    Да, графика красивая. Но например лица и в целом "пидорский" подход к делу все портит.
    Некрасивые женьщины, синий хованский. Очень смешная анимация, она веселит но атмосфеу убивает. Совершенно ублюдские бои в сочетании с отсутсвием сейвов - ад и содомия. Закрытая от модов система. Средненький сюжет. Надеюсь студию распустят после этого провала.    Ужасная оптимизация. Ужасно скучно.

    Well i was so disappointed about this game, so i had to create an account here to just warn those guys who want to buy and play this "game". There is nothing familiar with mass effect universe except may be music. Animation in dialogues is disgusting, story line is so bad you don't wanna wait for the end. Garbage. Do not waste your money. Bioware is dead.

    EA has to learn that releasing unpolished product will bite them in the ass.

James Cameron said Sigourney asked a lot of questions why she has to use guns in it, that she actually loves the alien. etc. Even James Cameron had to say no to those liberal ideas.. that's not how the story of Ripley works and bringing in current political views doesn't make for a good story.

    I'm just so angry of this **** game and SJWare. The facial animation and female characters are just ridiculous and ugly af. I still cannot believe that SJWare spent FIVE years and 40 million$ on this game. They are so rude and unrespectful to the fans and Mass Effect comunity by making such a disgusting game. I'm so angry right now typing this and the game should be named MESS Effect instead.

    Just. Horible.
    This is not Mass Effect game. This is not what the fans were waiting for, nor "just a good game for newcomers". Sure, you've killed Dragon Age, for two times ina row now, but good god, the latest ME game was already not very good, and then you're giving us this peace of space junk? Pffsht. Nope.
    EA, please, stop killing good companies and franchises. Just stop.

    It panders to the SJW community quite thoroughly. Word to the wise- if you do play the game, and decide to play as a female character- make your own model. Do not use the presets or you will see you will loose your immersion into the game because you cant keep a straight face. =D

Some things worth noting:

    -- Abosolute AMATEUR character animations, faces look flat and dull, often conveying the wrong emotion for the conversation occurring, weird walks, runs, and movement in general.
    -- Fanfic tier dialogue. Bad. Just... How can I even get this across? It plays out like some 13 year old's fantasy.
    -- Glitches. A lot of them. Characters flash in and out of frame, objectives will never resolve, and plenty of movement related bugs.
    -- The new aliens are just.. Boring and uninspired. Absolutely no sense of wonder and discovery with them, and the alien races brought with you are just rehashed stereotypes of whats already been established in the previous games.

    Bioware brought this flop on its self, and the consequences from it will be well deserved. Don't bother getting this unless you find it in a discount bin, and want a good laugh.    … Expand

    There are only two things I can say:

    1) Do you want to play an actual RPG, with an engaging storyline? Take the Witcher 3. 2)Do you want to play an open world game with different things to do in it? Take GTA 5. So far, ME:A shows very little innovation in it's actual gameplay. It is the same schtick again: Go explore and then go full shooting gallery with a cover based system.

    So far, ME:A shows very little innovation in it's actual gameplay. It is the same schtick again: Go explore and then go full shooting gallery with a cover based system. Oh okay, now you can also slide/rocket jump into and out of cover, but essentially it is the same. The gun is still the meat and bones of this title and with a budget of 40.000.000 dollars this shouldn't be the case. Another bugbear of this is the ever slow retardation of the dialogue system. There's the wheel, which now uses even less words and instead uses little symbols and keywords.

    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]
