I’m not even sure I need to read the rest of the thread after this comment. You win by default! I guess it makes as much sense as anchovies on pizza though.

IMO you nailed it. It’s not a bad game per se, especially after they fixed some things, but it’s no where near the quality of the original ME trilogy.
I don’t know if you consider this a spoiler or not, so maybe stop reading here if you’re concerned about that… But the thing that bothered me the most was the lack of alien diversity. They went to a whole other GALAXY and both of the new sentient alien species they encounter are bipedal carbon-based lifeforms. To add to the disappointment every race that came to Andromeda is also bipedal and mostly carbon based, so it’s actively less alien than the original games even though we’re in a whole new galaxy. No hanar. No Volus. No elcor.
And every Asari face is literally the same model except for the crew member you have with you. They all have literally the same face. Idk. It really bothered me.
Another thing that’s annoying is you have less control over your squad mates in combat. I really enjoyed the way combat sometimes felt like a puzzle in the OT, bringing certain people for certain enemies and combining powers so each of you are stronger together. It felt like teamwork even though it’s really all you. In Andromeda they basically just made the main character OP instead and that’s the only one you control.
With that said, it’s still fun! And I think it’s worth a playthrough or even two. Just don’t expect it to be Mass Effect.
Could’ve also gone with “war crimes for new hats” 🤠

I love that you’re sharing these other fediverses. This is really interesting AND helpful, but…
I love the simplicity of Paper.wf for blogging. It’s truly elegant; I just click the link and start typing.
Creed? Is that you?
The irony of the man choosing to use the name Tesla when he’s just another Edison.
Actually, even that is probably giving him too much credit…
That is such a great analogy. I keep trying to get my SO to join Lemmy, but he won’t put any effort into learning how it works or getting used to it. I’ve explained to him what the fediverse is, what instances are, and what Lemmy is at least 3 times already, but then he still got confused the other day and thought Jerboa was another instance instead of an app. It’s frustrating. People just love the familiar and don’t want to be inconvenienced whatsoever…
This was exactly my first thought too. Afterall, the API is still free right now too, so they can use as many 3rd party bots as they want to influence public opinion.
Same. I buy exclusively digital for the convenience, but how can they claim this is a physical version of the game when it doesn’t physically include the game? It’s not even a loophole at those point. It’s just a lie.
