I'm split about what they've released so far - there's a lot of good stuff in the bullet points, but I think all the trailers they've put out have been really.. underwhelming? Also, "Peebee" already reeks of Bioware trying way too hard to create a "quirky-funny" character. Hope I'm wrong on that count, but she seems custom-made for the random humor crowd.

I love how the whole preamble was lowering expectations - "Making games is really hard, you guys." Also, the faces looked weird for a reason I can't quite describe.

Alain Post posted:I still love people talking about how ME3 "destroyed the franchise" as if that were a bug, and not a feature Ah yes, the weird interpretation that the writers wanted to make a terrible ending so no one would make a terrible sequel. Makes about as much sense as "we have to kill organics so synthetics won't."

comatose posted:I like your posts and I think you're right in that you think ME3 is a giant pile of poo poo and then you go and say citadel is bad and I just get all confused. I like Citadel but it does suffer from a lot of the same problems as ME3 ("why am I doing anything non-essential when millions are dying on Earth each day?"). Its saving grace is that its nonsense is of the feel-good, comfort food variety.

Milky Moor posted:Citadel is not meant to take place during the main story. I'm pretty sure that either during ME2 or ME3, Bioware said that DLC could not take place after the main quest due to publisher mandate. Then I guess the issue would be that there isn't a logical time when it could happen. Again, I do think it's a fun romp, but I could see how someone might be turned off by it.

Milky Moor posted:Yes there is. After the game. You pick Destroy, skip through all the cutscenes, then you load the game pre-Earth and play Citadel. Wish I could do this. I really do. Man, if Clone Shepard had waited, like, a week, he could've shown up and everybody would've been cool about it.

Skippy McPants posted:Something about male Ryder's default model bugs me, but I'm having a hard time putting my finger on it. Maybe it's just that he's not dude Shep. In ME 1, Mark Vanderloo's face gave the default Shepard a huge leg up on anything you were likely to spit out with the character creator, and now in ME:A that contrast in lacking. I dunno, Ryder just looks kinda milquetoast. Male Ryder looks like he should be lead in a CW show. Woman Ryder looks like a muppet.

Holy hell. I want to believe this game will be good, but Bioware is actively trying to disabuse me of that notion.

Andromeda was an epic achievement in blandness. The only things at all interesting about it were the hosed-up animations and the fact that it killed the franchise. Calling its characters flat would be a compliment - it would imply there was anything to them at all - and its story had, at most, one decent reveal (the writers do nothing to develop it, of course).

The decision to only have two new alien species is baffling, and hamstrings the game from the beginning. If there's more, you have options: two species could react to the Kett invasion differently, and there are stories in that. They could have differing opinions on yoomanity's arrival. They could be at war with each other, or function symbiotically. A whole range of possibilities would open up with the addition of just one more species. Instead, we have the good alien species and the bad one, and nothing that takes place over the course of the game changes that. That might not even be so bad, but the game hangs its entire story on that conflict, and it isn't enough to sustain an open-world RPG.
