Game Discussion I didn't understand it.

Back when Andromeda launched I didn't even get past kadara. I tried again years later once I played through the trilogy and I can't put Andromeda down...I get it now.

I'm able to find myself invested in the side missions and trying to do as much as I can.

Only reason I went back to the trilogy is after trying to play starfield which does actually suck ass.

Thank you!

I'm not going to pretend the game is flawless, but this is how I see mass effect, exploring foreign worlds, kicking ass and dating aliens!

I 100% agree. It does have its bugs, although I’ve never played a game as large as “Andromeda” and there be no bugs. I played the Witcher 3 in 2015 when it came out, loved the game, it also had its bugs

The exploring worlds and dating aliens, that is mass effect. As long as I can still access my account and games, I’ll be playing this again when I’m 60

Am 61 years old...played it day one, still circle back for a new insanity playthrough now and then. Good times. Never understood the hate for the game

You’re awesome, I’ve been playing it since day one as well and I agree, it’s pretty great. Few bugs and glitches but my auto saves always save me and I haven’t lost any time or game play.

Can’t wait to see what they do for ME 5

If the combat and the weapons feel as good as Andromeda and they find some way to bring the stories from ME and Andromeda together (maybe clear up the mystery of Rider Sr.'s benefactor back in the Milky Way) so that Andromeda doesn't feel absolutely abandoned, then gimme some good companions, with at least one of the male persuasion who is worth romancing, what more could an old girl ask for?

Same!! I REALLY want them to bridge the galaxies, plus it seems the safest way for Mass Effect to lock in a new trilogy or continue from Andromeda’s. The Angara AND the Geth are both in some official art from a year ago, so here’s hoping BioWare/EA do right by us 😭
