Some of the things being said about Sarah Ryder are pretty awful. While there are facial animation issues.. I kinda like how she looks. But angry while male fury babies need a main character that is hot... errgh.

Scott Ryder is pretty much the same. He kinda looks like he would be in gay porn. But more the twink stuff. Not my cup o tea but it's not horrible.

Bioware of old no longer makes the ME games.

It's the same thing that happened when Diablo 3 was created. Lot of fans of the first two games didn't like the new sequel because the talent behind the originals wasn't involved.
The result?
Path of Exhile became the true sequel to diablo 2 lol

I predict when enough people realise that the old staff is gone they will eventually migrate to a new spiritual successor to ME that isn't controlled by EA.

Big publishers are cocky bastards and believe that since they own the big franchises, they can skimp on quality and people will still buy the games even if quality dips. They have no incentive to improve the game as long as fans keep buying the game based only on the title/label. If you like ME Andromeda by all means go ahead and buy it and show your support. But for many people ME = the original trilogy of games.

There is no point trying to convince old fans of something that they are wrong on something. They've already made up their mind. Just like when your fave tv series starts to suck because the writers have run out of good material and so they are forced to add stuff in to the show that wasn't originally supposed to be there because they are contracted to keep milking the series. (this is a problem I am seeing with Macross Delta where the first episodes are good but then it starts to suck in new ones because they didn't intend to make it run longer than the original number they planned for and so they pad it with stuff that isn't good quality)

I hope the people who were involved in the originals take the opportunity to create a ME-like under a different name to see if they can challenge EA. (much like how Bioshock was created after EA sat on top of System Shock and didn't do anything with it) This game cost $40 million but looks (in terms of facial models) worse than games from last gen lol. See vid below for laughs)
EA is the middle age has-been that when he was young and fit in highschool and played football, had the discipline to make the most of his talent and reached his potential, but who today got fat and lazy and relaxed and drank beers and let himself go and now thinks he can do the same things as he was when he was young and fit and healthy. You got to come to the realisation that if you are old, bald, ugly, and unpopular NOW, then you shouldn't expect to get the same praise just for existing. Things change, people get fat, and they won't perform the same if they haven't pushed themselves hard as a life philosophy. EA is that fat has-been. They may have been the shit in the past but they made bad decisions and now live with the consequences of those bad past decisions. That is why it is so important to reflect on things and check yourself. If you perceive yourself as being awesome but you are actually not as awesome as you think you are, you will continue making the mistakes over and over again. The fans will scream at you and you will think they are cheering you on but they are angry that you are making them angry by your suckage. lol This may be a triple A title with big budget but that won't mask the flaws which fans will notice when they criticise the game in depth. (usually after the hype is died down a bit and the dust has settled long after release to shelves/digital stores) You get the same thing with critics of new Elder Scrolls games who compare it to the older ones and notice they cheaped out on features (less armor types being one example) maybe because they spent big budget on celebrity voice actors or marketing than on more programmers/grunts to give you more complex and deeper game.

For those of you who didn't know this: they did the same thing to Dragon Age Inquisition. They deliberately made the women ugly on purpose. By doing this they are trying to push for the normalisation of ugly people in gaming which isn't realistic. Women of today are very image conscious and get surgery on their butts, boob, faces, and they do all this cosmetic surgery so they can stay young forever but true men can sense the fakeness and prefer young women not 40-50 year old sluts who are still trying to act like they can have a 10 out of 10 man because they were lied to by tv shows that says its ok for old ladies to fuck young guys who are someone else's sons. Disgusting.
To all the slutty old ladies: making women look ugly isn't going to boost your sexual marketplace value to young men. Honesty with yourself and growing old gracefully is your destiny. Not buying into the lie of the devil that says you can be god if you just use illusions and fakery to trick and manipulate people.
If I were a 10 out of 10 I am not going to suddenly like old wrinkly women just because fictional videogame characters in western RPGs are made to look ugly and masculine. It's just wrong ok? Act your fucking age. Men want young women who are healthy, not people that have cut themselves up and butchered themselves. You can never compete with videogame characters that are not real. EVER.. So stop trying to make them ugly out of jealousy for something that doesn't exist heheh It's only going to get harder when VR porn gets more sophisticated and people retreat into these fantasy virtual environments to perv at their fave CG character in the privacy of their VR helmet.

Want to stop this? Then stop thinking you can have sex with whoever you wish and not pay the consequences. It all started in the 60s when old guys divorced their ugly lazy wives who didn't exercise and please the man sexual needs, and so those old guys divorced them for a younger wife that looked hot,. This then caused a shortage of girls for younger men when sugar daddies started using their wealth to attract the hot chics, and then fierce competition for what remained of the females took place because of the shortage of pussy. This caused fighting and men became frustrated and turned to porn for release. Then as they got addicted to porno, they started to retreat into fantasy (how can real women compete with 10 out of 10 fictional characters for attention?) and now you have dysfunctional nerds who make these sexy characters in games to earn a living because of the shortage of pussy. (it is a fact that modern women of today fuck only the top 20 percent of guys and ignore the 80 percent of average joes)

We have to reverse this by collapsing the system so SJWs are forced to become men through a crisis that causes them to have to take responsibility for their parents who raised them up to be pussies thinking they were helping. MGTOW is the best solution imo which is the default choice of young people today who are broke and they can't afford to buy a house so need to save money for themselves and not waste it on entitled bitches whose fathers didn't raise them properly. (the dad treated them like disney princess)

Just like in an RPG there are consequences for actions. You got to think long term to avoid these things. Why does hollywood want to make men to be feminine and women to be masculine? Could it be that they want to create a matriarchy? Or is it corporations just being greedy and knowing women spend money while men tend to save money so they favour feminists who spend more than they produce. (so the idea is that women given power and resources will spend it on the corporation's products and then boosting their profits) Nobody knows and I put it down to the reptilians trying to weakn humans for the easy kill off. ie more sissies means less warriors to fight them when they emerge on the world scene. If the population is culled when people don't breed fast, the reptilians win because less of us means easier planet to conquer for them. It's anti-life and is the reason they push for abortion so hard. It's got nothing to do with women's rights. The abortion is a ritual child sacrifice to satan just like sending boys off to die in senseless wars that make the bad guys rich. (all this money is then put in researching new technology to enslave the weaklings so they can't fight the system which the SJWs are unfortunately reliant upon to live much like drug addict needs drugs or he will go to drastic measures like crime to get it or maybe kill themselves.)

The real funny here is last gen resolutions on the Xbone. I've never heard of 756p, is that one more row of pixels more than 720? :lol:

Oh wait, didn't you just purchase and download the 756p version? My bad.

I have purchased the xbone version.
There is method to my madness though. I have friends getting the xbone version and the multiplayer on xbone is much bigger.
The other thing is that i will end up getting it on ps4 pro when it is cheaper plus by that time.. the bugs and other kinks will be ironed out.. so it will look better than what i remember on the xbone!

Think I'll skip this for now. I waited until ME3 was given an ending before I bought it so I'll wait and see with this one too.

Dude, did you have to include those boring as fuck uggos I'm expected to play an entire trilogy with?

I'm banking on the bone version to become 1440p/60fps or 4k/30fps on Scorpio. :t0mby:

Hot mess, along the lines of Ass Creed Unity.

I didn't know that you can't command your party members to use their powers in combat now. Epic fail!

To be honest I rarely needed to control them so that doesn't really bother me. I do think that bioware would likely be in damage control right now and if enough flak is accumulated.. they may look at adding it. Just like a lot of things that need to be added. I see lots of improvements and freebie updates before any DLC.

My US based mass effect friends are loving it... so that makes me happy.

You can't direct them where to go, who to attack but you can't specify usage of powers so goodbye to biotic combo videos :down:

Play this but don't buy it. It'ts probably still fun but I have heard the reason it sucks is because they hired people based on filling a quota. They can get more money hiring minority. This is why political correctness bullying is so damaging to the game industry and why gamergate is such a threat to the feminists. Nobodcares sooo you get these games instead of high quality old bioware from the past.
I still bought Dragon Age Inquisition but I feel like I got to avoid this game on principle this time. (the talent that left should use this opportunity to come up with a new KOTOR-like and advertise it as a ME reboot) This idea of just releasing before its ready needs to go. Delay like nintendo did and you can avoid this problem. If the second Noob team at bioware are not as good as the other bioware (team A) then that is all the more reason you should delay until they get more skilled up. Grrrr.

Mass Effect fans need to insist that if they don't fix the problems, then they will avoid any future titles. This is the only language a business man understands. You give them the money AFTER they deliver the quality goods you asked for not BEFORE.
It's why Totalbiscuit and all the sensible gamers encourage people to never preorder anything. It's healthy for the game industry to reward good behavior not reward evil behavior. When you give your money in advance it gives them no incentive to delay a game and fix it. They got the money from you in advance , and then they can be lazy and just produce unfinished half arsed games. Unlike the japanese who have a strict work ethic western devs are all too eager to rush shit out with glitches and bugs and then say "we'll fix that bit later". But if the sales are poor, sometimes they might not bother fixing it because it may not be worth the time given how little people bought it so they just leave it broken instead and make more shitty games with the money you gave them. lol The responsibility actually rests on your shoulders to fix it because they need your funding to continue to operate.

It's human nature for greedy businessman to not give a fuck about you if you already paid them in advance and if you guys really care about the quality of the game series you will listen to me. It works. Sony and nintendo have the right idea which is why Horizon and Zelda have such polished feel to them. Delay until its ready. It's also why I think in future game sales will not totally all be digital distribution because the advantage you have with retail is the ability to complain to a human and get your money back if the game is shitty. I never see classic nintendo triple A titles on the preowned basket. Only third party games that were disposable. I can understand why people hate EB Games for making so much money on the sale of secondhand games but if those developers made high enough quality, your games becomes hard to find in second hand market because the original owners held on to the games and wanted to keep them. Your duty is to quality check your products to a level that matches the first party titles from sony or nintendo or microsoft. Not whine about potential lost sales. That is the reason the first party games can get the 10s consistently because they are tough critics of their own work. They don't just get fansbases on moneyhats and corrupt journalists alone :P
