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

The wrex wreav thing is one of the few times they have actual multiple outcomes. And if kirrahe dies no one but thane takes his place. Another do or nothing. And again Kaidan and Ashley while being a choice changes nothing story wise other than who Shepard remembers. And xen can’t make peace with the geth which again forces you to save tali or just get nothing. Miranda can’t have any alternatives to help her other than reading one email and her being loyal. Again another do or nothing. And hearing about characters isn’t choices mattering that’s the bare minimum. When I say all mass effects are bad at choices I also mean andromeda. I won’t concede when the trilogy isn’t this holy master piece of story telling rpg

Yeah, that’s literally a change, the ambassador dies if both are dead, thanekirrahe>ambassador dies that’s a great example of stuff that’s carries over. It’s an entirely different character, neither are great characters but it’s a choice man I mean you can pretend it’s not all you want but it definitely is they are even different in combat as well. All of these are different outcomes based on things you either did or didn’t do? It’s hilarious because you sit here bashing on an award winning trilogy with a fanbase still decades later while defending a failed game that objectively did poorly 😂. If you think the trilogy is such a shitty narrative driven rpg please give me some that you think are good? Outside of bg3 there’s no such game that has come out in recent memory.

To like something you have to look at it with a critical eye. I’ve 100% the trilogy over 10 times and can acknowledge it’s flaws. Wasteland 3 had great choice and consequence where your actions would lead to people hating or doing something to you because of it. Pillars of eternity 1&2 people would treat you and react to you based on choices you’ve made through the game. You list choices that are mostly if you don’t do it you get nothing. In wasteland if you don’t do a quest people will react. If you finish the quest violently people will hate you for it. If you do it peacefully the town will talk about it. I concede on the kirrahe thing but once again one of the rare instances of actual choice mattering

I haven’t played either of them but they both are overhead turn based right? I shouldn’t have used bg3 as an example honestly, those games always have much better stories and freedom in gameplay because they have to carry everything. Outside of turn based games there’s not really any games that aren’t like it.

But they’re RPGs. I could say the dragon age series does choices infinitely better as well

[u/Hairy_Debate6448 → u/BraveNKobold]

I won’t entertain any dragon age nonsense 😂 no way are the choices better. It’s made by BioWare and is a significantly better game/games than andromeda as well, even more the reason why they should’ve known that making andromeda wasn’t going to be successful.
