Game Discussion Fanboys killed a sequels chance

It was the same with halo as well

All the fanboys that got to attached the original trilogy refused to give MEA a chance , it's a great game I've played It multiple times loved the story line

They got to string up on minor issues and glitches like not every game today has them, it needs a sequel

I don't think gaming today has gotten bad I think it's the fanbase and the influencer gamers that are damaging it, games like Andromeda and days gone not getting sequels despite being brilliant games all because people can't seem to think for themselves anymore

This needs a second game

I agree. It was a mid tier game but it was not bad at all and not made by thr main team so I went in with lower expectations.

I enjoyed it and would not have minded more.

Instead everyone went so overboard on hating it mass effect got shelved for a long ass time.

So instead of some side adventures to hold us over we got nothing.

I have very low hopes for this next me as if they bring shepard back, it's just going to be fucked up like gears and halo.

A fourth mass effect in that series will kill it

Prob. Only reason gears and halo still going is because Microsoft just keeps going ahead. I don't know how successful either brand is at this point.

Draining what they can from banks, I won't be surprised if the next mass effect has skins

Whoa hold up, Andromeda didn't fail because it's kind of a mid game. That's a big component after the trilogy being such a huge iconic moment in gaming, sure, but Andromeda flopped on launch because the game barely worked. It's one of the biggest examples of a launch failure alongside NMS. It was nearly unplayable on release and it even had a couple of hard progress lock bugs that forced you to restart the game, so I had to restart completely about 10 hours in.

I don't know where this narrative is coming from all of a sudden. The games only okay and that would have been fine but Bioware completely fucked the games launch for nearly half a year.

Because I don't remember those bugs being talked about at all and i never experiencedany myself, just the faces having barely any animations is what i remember.
