Because it explains something that didn't need to be explained with an explanation that doesn't actually work within the constraints of the lore.

It's also extremely dumb.

It also retroactively makes the original trilogy worse, but somehow making the ending of ME3 better in the process?

I just wanted to mope, not derail the thread.

This is what I wanted to hear and I can't actually find it on google. I knew it was going to be stupid.

The two opinions seem to be: THIS GAME IS THE WORST or THIS GAME IS THE BEST

I mean are we allowed to say it's a really fun game with a lot of issues? That it needs patching but it's worth the price of admission? It's almost like every other Mass Effect game.

You aren't allowed to say that, no. I have reported this post to the moderators.

How?

"Mass Effect Andromeda Spoiler" is pretty loving vague.

"There's a thing that sucks about Mass Effect Andromeda" tells us nothing, because right now the surprise would be something that didn't suck about this garbage fire.

literally the only thing this game could have going for it is the overall story. so, spill it.

Does anyone know what sorcery you have to perform to get casual outfit colors to stick? It's pretty unintuitive, seems to work fine for armor though.

He probably didn't make it up, but he definitely intended to derail. Bunch of people quoting his Bioware spiel post, so time to swoop in for some more attention.

To the game's credit, you can rush through the Nexus and get to Eos pretty quickly. I just hope you get get off Eos fast too because desert environments are 100% the worst always.

I bet the spoiler is that the SAM is actually just a chunk of star kid and that's why it wants into your thinky bits.

I doubt it. As Milky Moor stated a while back given some of the things Alec Ryder has to say in the early access, Mac is probably bitter about not accepting the synthesis ending.

Nope, you get up to entering that Remnant Vault (which is full of tentacles and disappointment, probably) and that's where it cuts. You can gently caress around other than that, just can't push the story further.

No you're stuck before a certain main story point, which you need to complete to actually explore Eos properly. Everyone on the 10 hour trail has the same access to the game regardless of pre-order.

That's completely speculation and not a spoiler beyond a scene anyone with the trail can see.
