Don't forget all the copy and paste buildings in 1, or the fact that Liara basically only existed to further the plot/get the writer out of the corner, like Troi in early TNG.

What the hell? I just checked and Origin is using nearly 1gb of ram. Also I can't update it.

Making everything have shields or armor and then making shields and armor provide immunity from most of the fun powers was the worst. It also incentivized bringing along garbage squadmates by gimping the cool ones (see: Miranda v. Mordin). Also had a small selection of weapons and locked 3 classes to pistols only until 2/3rds of the way through the game. Or the all or nothing Paragon/renegade system which was at its absolute worst. It did a lot of things right, but mechanically it is hard to go back and play. Also loving locking Legion to endgame is inexcusable

Origin has never ran poorly for me, actually their tech support has been super helpful + responsive compared to Steam.

They've also had some (minor) features well before Steam did (like offline messaging). E: The issues with the lower right corner of the screen were annoying as gently caress though.

Well while I was able to download files, I am still not able to install them. Origin keeps asking for permissions from administrator, and no amount of administrator privileges or running as Administrator or compatibility modes or reinstallation or cache clearing or .NET Framework updates seems enough to get me past this point.

Just saw Ryder running in the casual section. I liked how her body shifted when running around a corner. The run animation is so much better than ME3.

Initial analyses indicates that we are dealing with a Third Person Shooter game with RPG Elements set in a sci-fi setting, and that is possible to play as a hideous creature with appropriate settings applied in the character creator.

poisonpill posted:So are people playing yet? What's the initial verdict? I picked up Origin Access and from what I can see is I can play on the 16th. But a bunch of people are streaming so we're watching those. I like what I see so far but it'll be better to understand once we actually have our hands on the controls. Edit: Just saw the part where they were checking out planets in a solar system and I don't know if the cinematic zoom is a hidden load screen or not but that could get to be a bit much. Hopefully you can skip. Shard fucked around with this message at 21:17 on Mar 14, 2017 |

What are you trying to install? ME:A isn't available for preload yet is it? I signed up for origin access but my andromeda just says "preload available on the 17th" which i'm sure can't be true since I paid $5 like a winner to play it on the 16th (and also saved $6 on the preorder so actually, I'm smart)

I'm irrationally annoyed that DadRyder bought a massive chunk of rock he was sentimental about on the ark. If I hear one word about weight limits having been a thing then my word I'll be angry at that Ryder.
