Andromeda was one of those games where it would have been an ok game if only it hadn't been hitched to a superior IP. Not remarkable, but at least not worthy of ridicule.

This. Andromeda's chief problem was: you went from a trilogy of games in which you were literally the savior of the Universe, to a game where you are basically a space Real Estate agent. That tends to dull the excitement a bit.

Noooo, Andromeda has its own share of standalone problems completely unrelated to being a Mass Effect game.

The writing is piss-poor, the exploration is tedious, and nothing promised in regards to the game's basic premises is remotely true.

I meant that it caused the game to be judged in comparison to actual quality games, rather than on its own merits. It wasn't a great game, but it wasn't poo poo. It was just so much worse than any of the first three it was impossible not to be continually disappointed by the wildly varying quality of quests, lack of world reactivity, various technical issues, and lack of romancable krogan.

That last one is shared with the original trilogy, it was just more forgivable in better games.

Albino gang boss that was originally just a regular human badass before power creep demanded he get superhuman strength, speed, agility and durability.

EDIT: He's like, if Ron Perlman was twenty years younger and played Mobius the Vampire in 1980's style leather coat and jean getups.

There's one occasionally I see around Long Island, and it looks legit. It's always surrounded by people taking photos. There's also a DeLorean collector around here so in the warmer months you see a lot of OUTATIME.

Never played it. No consoles. The armor had me thinking Dark Souls, the clothing in front Bloodborne.

It did look like some quality work, regardless of where the inspiration came from, so, thus the post.

I don't recognize the chest piece, but the helmet is Queen Annalise's, which you can't actually wear ingame. They are wielding Ludwig's Holy Blade.

It's Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower and the Bloody Crow of Cainhurst (except he has Ludwig's Holy Blade instead of Chikage for some reason)

That's the Cainhurst Helmet, which you can wear in-game. You can buy it once you have the Cainhurst Badge.

Maria was Gehrmann's apprentice, and learned how to Hunt from him. They both participated in the slaughter of the Fishing Village, which Maria regretted afterwards. She threw away her weapons and became a kind of warden of the patients who become blood saints. Gehrmann missed having Maria around so much that he made a facsimile of her, and due to him being disappointed in Maria's decision to stop being a Hunter the Doll is an infantilized child.

I thought Gehrmann had a crush on Maria, and the Doll was his 'ideal' version of her? Or am I imagining additional creepiness in an already creepy game?

A lot of cosplayers like to put their own spin on the characters they are representing, but I really like that one. It actually makes sense.
