In other words the press was right it deserved a 7. EA doesn't suddeny get a pass simply because Candy Arse is a fan of them and that he is a moderator so the whole forum must kiss his arse when he says something is good when it isn't. :lol:

This is the idiot that thinks that Giant Bomb his fave review site is wrong for giving Zelda BOTW a 10 lol This is before he even finished the game. :down:

This is why guys like Angry Gaming Centaur are gaining popularity because he buys the game with his money (important factor in determining whether it felt worth the full price or not) and then finishes the game and then does the review. Even playing the game on multiple difficulty levels. (important for casual gamers who may avoid a game which is too hard) He is the closest thing to Diehard gamfan magazine of the 16 bit days. This is what reviewers use to be like. None of this rush to be first. We have to admit when we are fanboys guys.

When nintendo gets its 10 a lot of this is because they polish the shit out of the titles. When third parties rush things out (these guys had 5 years remember!) and you see the little cracks, it's your duty to highlight these bits too not just talk about the good stuff.

Talk about the good stuff, the bad stuff, and then weigh the good with the bad to get the overall result. Example with Street Fighter 5, a lot of gamers expect arcade mode to be included whether you PERSONALLY don't care about that, it was a staple for so many previous games. When it was rushed to get it out early, reviewers have a duty to talk about these because it factors into the value of a game. The core mechanics are good but you can also talk about how much better it COULD have been if it didn't get released unfinished with lacking modes.

Nintendo got criticised for this when Mario Kart 8 came out with a shit battle mode. And so should capcom by ommitting the Arcade Mode. So if Candy can give Zelda 7, then MEA should be a 5 since it took roughly the same time but it wasted resources and time by fights between teams. That lack of polish cost it sales and EA should take the blame for not bringing some order to the fights as they own bioware so anything shit they release will affect future profits if they don't correct these mistakes.

You won't see me kiss CDProjekt Red's butt just because Candy thinks they made a perfect game with Witcher 3. Why? Because I play a lot of different games and notice little things he doesn't such as the combat not being that good. In an age of Dark Souls type games, the cool kids of today want quality combat system. Bethesda got criticised for floaty melee controls back when skyrim came out in 2011 right? So Witcher 3 also needs to be criticised in this area too so they can improve. It's a perfect game to Candy Arse, but not to ME. Fanboy goggles cloud people's judgement because they WANT it to succeed commercially and I totally get that. But in order to avoid customers feeling ripped of when they pay money to these companies who make half arsed games, you got to be honest and talk about the bad stuff that ruins the games or they will continue making them crap if they think they can get away with it. The valid criticisms as long as you can prove them should be used to help these guys fix thier titles not to shame them. It's healthy to give feedeback and because people did give feedback, they fixed some stuff and added value to the game for late comers who may buy it later in patched form.
For the next ME game (if they ever decide to revisit this franchise again) is try to purge out all the SJWs. They already got to Dragon Age. Why do they need to work on ME? Lot of people (see below comment from smudboys vid above) are still pissed that a racist (against white people) worked on it and avoid it on princiople alone. That has got to affect sales. Remind the SJW you are a business that needs to appeal to everyone (that includes non-SJW and left wing buyers who just want to play the game) Everyone's money matters. GTAV had just the right balance by staying neutral and looking at both sides of politics as as bad as each other and this is what EA needs to do. (put an Anti-SJW character in the games who can challenege the SJW characters beliefs and make them argue)

The Inquisition team worked on ME4?
OOOOOOHHH....

Now all the blatant sjw pandering and propaganda makes even more sense. Couple the guys who felt it prudent to introduce interspecies intersectional transgenderism, faggotry, pussy power and an unhealthy obsession with faggot sex (ride the iron bull anyone?) with a blatant racist, a retarded BLOGGER (seriously, who the fuck hires 'bloggers' for their writing skills?) who thinks she was virtually raped in GTAV and an amateur animator with clearly sexist views towards men with their inevitable diversity hiring of special snowflakes (faggots, trannies etc) and you aren't left with many TALENTED people, but a WHOLE lot of leftist ideologues who would be more interested in tranny made-up pronouns and 'flavours' of sexuality than making a good game.

Yeah read that yesterday. Sounds about right. Unsure how much blame can be placed on Frostbite though when Dragon Age: Inquisition had none of the issues Andromeda has. I have no doubt it's as tricky to use as they say, but it's been used well in FPS, RPG even sports games.

Also, Patch 1.08 is live:
Improved Character Creator

We’ve expanded the options available in the character creator, giving you greater control over your Ryder’s appearance. Two new heads were added, one male and one female, as well as a new complexion option and a greater range of available skin tones. We also unlocked all hairstyles for both sexes, and added a new bald option.

For players wanting to adjust their look mid-game, we added the ability to change your character’s appearance onboard the Tempest.

And for fans of Alec Ryder’s iconic appearance, you can now choose to keep the default Alec, rather than having his appearance be based on your custom Ryder.
Expanded Male Romance Options for Scott Ryder

Scott Ryder can now pursue Jaal as a romance option. There are several important reasons for this change:

Scott Ryder did not have a same-sex squadmate available as a romance option, nor could the achievement for completing three romances be achieved with only male same-sex partners. And as the angara have expressed their fluidity in how they perceive gender, it seemed only natural that Scott could have a relationship with Jaal.

However, we understand that a character’s orientation is an important part of what makes them feel real. The relationships with your crew are some of the most loved and cherished parts of our games, so we wanted to make sure we got it right. We consulted with members of the LGBTQ community, both externally and within our own studios. After carefully considering all feedback, we decided this was an important change to make, and one that made sense for Jaal, Scott, and the angara.

Our writing, editing, and animation teams worked together to ensure this change made sense for Jaal’s character, and the result is a relationship we hope feels as fulfilling and memorable for Scott as it does for Sara.

You can find a full list of changes and improvements in the patch notes below. For notes in other languages, click here.

Almost downloaded now.. Not sure if banging Jaal will make me change the course in which I play the game though.

More interested in DLC and Multiplayer updates.. as currently MP is a bit meh.. too many glitches and the enemies just aren't as fun to fight when you care it to ME3 MP. Nothing really beats the on edge feeling of 3 banshees screaming as they teleport across the playing field.

Multiplayer is a lot of fun actually.. I spent WAY more time playing it in ME3 back in the day which was a complete surprise for me since I rarely play online...

MP felt better with the 1.08 patch last night. They added a new level too which is good. I would recommend you give it a go as it does showcase how cool the combat is :)

Yongyea posts another video commenting on animation for this game. This time highlighting the only part where humans look normal in how they react to each other:

It's a shame Cora is a feminist with a boy's hairdo. Unlike Bethesda games ME ones are not as mod-friendly so I bet this ruined the sales. Loads of porn mods for Elder Scrolls floating around. ME on the other hand makes you wish the japanese would hurry up and mass produce realistic sex robots because you can't jerk off to alien porn in ME now that the SJW have taken control.. :P
Bioware has pretty much put all the energy into Anthem now so fans should raise money for an indie company to make spiritual successor to Mass Effect in the same way the first Dragon Age was a spiritual sucessor to Baldur's Gate. (there are so many more fans of Mass Effect compared to Wing Commander that I reckon it would be easy. Star Citizen holds the record for how much money they got but I think it could be beaten by a Mass Effect-clone that lives up to the expectation of the fanbase) EA has a tendency to kill anything it already owns for some reason. Some dude in a black cloak and hood is hexing the executives so they make shitty choices I reckon. If Path of Exhile could destroy Diablo 3, what are the chances of a more devoted team of developer destroying the Mass Effect series in the same way Diablo 3 was destroyed? I think it's time to see some competition here. EA need a kick in the butt from alternative in the same way witcher 3 gave Bethesda a kick in the butt and now they are having to redo their engine again to keep up with CDPR.

Game is definitely better than a 70 on metacritic. Currently sitting at 3 planets at 100% viability and rapidly getting close to having the 4th done as I've levelled a lot doing every task on the previous 3 planets. Some of the writing is shit and some of the animation is crap where u can tell they have rushed things in but all in all it's definitely Mass Effect.

It was the most bizarre game release ever in terms of the number of nutjobs that crawled out of the gutter who went full retard. From all sides.

Unfortunately, it looks like they won and we won't get any story DLC even though the end of the game is set up perfectly (and deliberately) for it :(

For me, it's a solid 80-85, which is about where I'd put the original Mass Effect. Maybe that's part of the issue, people were expecting a perfect game and didn't get it, buit still,. that doesn't explain the insanity that went on.

Thanks to Apex I'm now regularly logging into Origin again. Subsequent to that I've brought over my EA games from Steam to Origin. This has sparked the motivation to finally embark on rectifying my greatest gaming shame - Mass Effect. 1 and 2 easily among my best ever. Back then while stupidly holding out for ME3 to release on Steam I lost my save so the trilogy remains unfinished for my Shep. Mass Effect 1 now installed c/- Origin and my trilogy play through is about to commence. I contemplated downloading a Mass Effect save game and even found one with my class and choices intact. My FemShep's look too ingrained though and I'd be jarred AF waking up to a different face. This is unfinished business so I'll be rolling the same Shep.

Mass Effect 1 still bloody awesome. Can’t wait to finish at gym so I can get home to it. A treat to play it at 1440p 144hz. Showing its age but that Mass Effect art style remains gorgeous.

Spoilers ahead.

ME1 so good. I remember but there’s a lot I’d forgotten. I’d forgotten how cool Nihlus is, that I’d contentedly settled in with him to be one of the game’s main characters then BAM – gone. I’d forgotten how powerful Liara is. My Shep is a Soldier and Liara’s inclusion in my party makes fights a cakewalk even on Veteran difficulty. That said now I’ve hit around level 17 or 18, donned heavy armour and I’m beginning to remember what a tank Soldier Shep is. Meanwhile poor Kaidan is flirting with me and he doesn’t even realise he’s dead.

Mass Effect Andromeda: Annihilation came out late last year:
The novel's plot "chronicles the journey of the Keelah Si'yah as it carries 20,000 drell, elcor, batarian, and quarian colonists to Andromeda. A pathogen is discovered aboard the ark after many drell are found dead in their cryo pods. As the pathogen jumps species, the ship's systems begin to fail, making it clear this is no accident.
It's actually pretty damn good, even though I'm disappointed we got this instead of DLC :( Seeing such diverse aliens in such a confined space is great. The elcor doctor/actor is one of my favourite Mass Effect characters.

All three Andromeda novels (Nexus Uprising and Initiation are the other two) are pretty good actually.

Was there an actual DLC project canned or did it just not eventuate? Now I'm back in I look forward to Andromeda. I get to play it patched and minus all the whinging nutbags. :nana:

Not really spoilers but just in case:
Spoiler!
After the last mission there is an NPC that says something about a distress signal that was picked up from the missing Quarian ark. It was meant to be DLC but got canned. So Andromeda lets you continue after the last mission, but there's nothing to actually do apart from talk to a few NPCs because the DLC was cancelled.

The novel goes into what went down on the ark but the DLC was meant to be the rescue mission. I have no idea if other DLC was planned but the Quarian ark one was definitely planned.

I was disappointed they canned the DLC because after toiling along with the story it had finally a real good hook and then U don't get to do it.

This must have had a huge amount of copies printed though, still seeing bargain copies in retail that they can't give away.

Finished ME1. The Council intact, Wrex still with us, Liara drilled and my Paragon Soldier FemShep ready for ME2 which I'm looking forward to seeing again. Kaidan lives however. Chatting to Ashley and Kaidan this time round and I couldn't objectively put Kaidan to the sword.

Does Wrex carry on over to 2 or does he disappear regardless of the outcome from the first?

From memory, he's no longer a party character after the original but still really important to the overall story.

Ahh ok, cos I'm pretty sure I killed him in my second play through and that was the save I carried on with. Got rid of my Xbox before #3 came out so didn't get to finish the fight.

ME2 still gorgeous. Gameplay really is leagues ahead of ME1. Anyone looking to replay now please note it's capped at 62fps and you'll need a source editor such as notepad++ to edit config files if you want to accommodate high refresh displays. Using standard notepad ruins the files.

Still wish they had improved the Mako instead of introducing planet scanning.

Planet scanning might not be as bad on a modern PC because of the improved loading times, but man I hated it on the 360.

I found planet scanning to be mindless but never frustrating. I just did it. To the point where I had so many resources I had no issue in getting whatever I wanted.

I think I'll get back to playing the original trilogy again. I enjoyed Andromeda but the lack of support and how it was launched left a bad taste in my mouth. The ME universe is simply amazing.

Great to be in bed with ME2 again. Am still early in the game but knocked over the Overlord DLC as it fits well with the whole Cerberus arc, Shepard being suspicious of Cerberus' methods, etc. The story and ending fit right in. I'd forgotten how big the game feels. The interstellar travel outside mass relays, mining for resources, missions, Kelly telling me to read my email, going upstairs to get changed, Shepard's hamster, the research/upgrade system. Still feeling substantial today despite its age.

I activated my Steam copies of ME1 and ME2 on Origin without issue, btw. Entered my steam keys into Origin and they appeared in my library immediately. This ensures access to all DLC and ME2's Cerberus network. Mass Effect DLC no longer supported or available on Steam.

I had no idea how much ME2 DLC I'd missed on my first playthrough. Kasumi, Zaeed, Arrival, Normandy 1 crash site. Haven't seen any of it. The DLC I did play back in the day was Overlord and Lair of the Shadow Broker. I'm currently playing through Arrival despite still being pretty early in the main campaign. Arrival probably intended for post campaign but hey man when Admiral Hackett calls Shepard and says a deep-cover operative with proof of an imminent Reaper invasion needs rescuing it stands to reason that mission becomes Shepard's priority.
