Once you "get" Vanguard the whole game changes. It plays nothing like the others.

I never understood the need for the “are your shields down” line. You need a target to charge!

I think the only one that can kill you instantly with no real warning is the banshee?

Didn’t the banshee have windows where they were animation locked and could do the sync kill? It’s been almost 10 years, I don’t remember all this clearly.

It's not the only fun class, there's tons of fun to be had with pretty much any build, but there really is something about walking into an encounter that is clearly set up for some long cover-based shooting and just rocketing across the whole area with no regard to cover shotgun blasting ragdolls. The fight vs the asari spectre in LotSB is particularly fantastic because she's also a vanguard and the two of you end up playing rocket tag.

My favorite moment that I wish I could have recorded was me charging her, then having to look around for a moment to see where she went, then I saw her ragdolling off in the distance and eventually out of the map, and the cutscene started.

andromeda is $7.50 on steam if anyone wants to try out a not particularly great game before the trilogy remaster i'm thinking about buying da:i because of all the good things i've heard about trespasser, and apparently the game has decent mod support on pc.

Inquisition is worth playing, it has a decent story but mediocre combat whereas andromeda has pretty good combat but one of the worst stories and obnoxious cast of characters ever

i sunk quite a lot of time into inquisition on ps4. there's a lot of stuff i disliked about it, and i didn't end up finishing it, AND THE AMOUNT OF LOAD SCREENS IN THE BASE WAS BS, but it was an okay game for podcasts. i think it might not be that bad with some of the mods i've seen.

If you didn't like it you won't like it. Don't waste your time on something that might not be too bad. There's a bunch of games out there that are just good without any qualifier and that you haven't played before.

DAI is just an all round bad time compared to Andromeda. It's like an MMO in singleplayer form, and absolutely not a good one.

[regarding andromeda] the combat is occasionally fun. but some of the maps suck, and it gets repetitive quickly. completing quests is a tedium because you have to hand in everything in person. the story is mostly crap, and characters are mostly a step down from other bw titles. it's really not great at anything, yet subpar at lots of things.
