It's a bunch of leaked dialogue from one of the romances (Vetra, with Scott Ryder)

I really enjoyed the trial too, the MP was really great when it wasn't lagging, hopefully they can improve the lag because that can be frustrating, otherwise this is a pretty good game. Maybe those who were super hyped are going to be let down but I wasn't really planning on buying this anyway until i played the trial.

Think its peer to peer so its luck of the draw, duder. loving why not server hosted EA in charge of being retarded again.

I wonder if they'll give the nude Turian model tits. I think it's 50/50 Turians will have human breasts under those chest plates.

To be fair it's not even 10 hours. If you ignore the obvious open world garbage collectathon it's more like 3 hours before you get cut off. That being said, you still come out a bit ahead if you get EA access and buy the game due to discount it gives you.

"a bit ahead" is $48 on GMG, not $59 at Origin

Probably my last post in this thread as I'm not going to bother playing any more of this for a while. I've just restarted DA:I and the difference really is astounding. Within a few minutes of starting you've got a good story going on and have been introduced to three interesting characters.

However the one thing that's really stood out is the direction of the conversation cutscenes. It seemed that almost all the conversations in Andromeda are just straight back and forth headshots with nothing else really going on. The facial animations stand out because there's really nothing else to distract you. Like in DA:I the facial animation isn't hugely better, but the characters actually move around and do things, and there are more than two camera angles.

Played up to getting to the Nexus, really fun so far. Some weird clipping issues that you'd think they fix and I don't know how you miss the Nexus tram having a map of the Hyperion instead.

I thought that's a really glaring mistake to miss too, but thinking about it it might be the car you came from the Hyperion from - and the map behind you is actually the map to access poo poo, so it might have been deliberate.

I feel like i'm losing my mind listening to some of the complaints in this game. Namely: Pathfinder. This game gives more pathos and meaning to your character's title than any other Bioware game I can think of. The Hyperion just had a handful of folks who were supposed to find a new home world wake up, and do that. Habitat 7 was a bust. Without a home, we can't wake up the rest of the 20,000 people on board. We get to the Nexus and they're equally hosed. They didn't sit on their rear end either, they put down a serious scouting and operations center on the closest viable planet: Eos. They sent satallites out to other planets. They had a mutiny and all the leadership fell apart and the Krogans left. They have a new enemy that won't talk and seems to out right hate them. This has been going on for 14 months. When you show up and they realize you are Pathfinder, several of the current leadership tell you to gently caress right off. Only a handful of lowbies show you respect, and they have good justifications to do so. You were apart of the team designed to find a homeworld, and everyone's survival depends on that. Now through nepotism you're the leader of that team and some folks like it because it gives hope, some folks hate it because it takes hope away. There are 3 other Pathfinder teams, all lost. There was supposed to be a team from each ark. With all the other arks missing, the viable planets not being viable, food supplies not running low per se, but they are limited, and now the Hyperion is powering the Nexus, which also won't last forever. When you showed up their drat lights were turned off because they couldn't pay the bill. You are the ONE dude who can fix this based on your resume, and you got the position through nepotism. Again, some folks hate it. Some folks, rightfully so, see you as the savior. They want to believe everything will be ok, that they'll live, and that there is reason to hope. Of ALL the things ME:A might not get right, THIS IS NOT one of them.

Wasn't really into the MP at first. When it's not laggy it can be fun. Having a DOOM music playlist is helping a lot. Hoping to unlock some good feeling guns soon. Grinding my way through everything with a charger and my flame turret right now.

If Inquisition had less of the MMO-esque bullshit it would've been a really good game.

I'm pretty sure we will say the same thing about ME:A a year or two from now. Why do they force all this OW poo poo into these games? Because it's what's the big thing is currently? Didn't see them put lovely QTE when this was all the rage.

During the stream last night, Scott walked into Vetra's quarters and she was talking to her little sister who ~~totally thought Scott was cute~~ aka the same thing that happened in ME1 with Ashley.

They started making this game 5 years ago because OW was a big thing and people were all about games that took hundreds of hours to complete even though most of that was driving your car/riding your horse/killing trash mobs/cookie cutter fetch quests.

It pads out the game time they can advertise and givesa list of "activities" so their open world isn't just a lot of empty space between actual interesting things to do.

There is a ton of stuff that is intentionally in to contrast with ME1. Even the squadmates are clearly just opposite-day examples of the human squadmates in ME1. Cora and Liam are reverse Ashely and Kaidan for instance. Vetra is the turian who bends the rules. Peebee is the asari scientist who is scatterbrained compared to Liara's stolid characterization and so on.
