Then that's not Dragon Age 2. You barely adventure though one one and a half areas, and the world is worse off for your troubles.

But you can gently caress/hatefuck everyone, including Felicia day with elf ears.

I'm honestly surprised that there'll be no romances in Anthem, given that the core bioware fanbase seems to enjoy the games mostly for that feature

I don't think it's that big a group of people who love Bioware romances, they're just loud.

Bioware has been getting stats from every game of theirs from DAO onwards as to what people actually play and what story decisions they make. Remember that according to Bioware, their stats say 80% of all players of the Mass Effect games pick the default male soldier for Shepard.

Im glad my instant dislike in you has been validated again and again.
honestly my biggest issue with anthem(outside the destiny thing) is that the plot/world feels like an JRPG plot.

It's not like Anthem has any other features working, so it's not that surprising :v:.

Andromeda's run and gun gameplay is actually pretty fun when the game just lets you go to town on an enemy base or whatever. The guns are still fun, the tools are fun, and you have enormous mobility thanks to the jetpack. Problem is, that's a tiny minority of the game next to roaming open, empty worlds and crossing half a dozen loading screens to talk to two people for sidequests.

My local Meijer is still selling Andromeda on PS4 at full price, but the Xbone version is $10 cheaper :thunk:

ME3 is the only modern shooter where I really enjoyed the shooting to the point that I beat the game on insanity without cheating because I was having fun.

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


I played through ME3 on Insanity after sinking dozens of hours into the MP demo and it felt even easier than Bronze. Novaguard was still great, though.

I did Insanity on an engineer. Engineers in ME3 are great, you have a spell for every occasion and every enemy to the point that whenever I play one I always take an ammo power as my bonus because the engineer is such a complete package of active abilities already.

And because they're by far the least played class in the trilogy engineers and engineers alone get some unique class dialogue in Citadel, which a Bioware dev confirmed was a little reward for those playing the least-played class in the series.

Apparently in a recent interview Casey Hudson has implied that there will be more Mass Effects in Bioware's future.
