i generally like games set in space i.e. Halo franchise...haven't really played much mass effect except for me2

Andromeda is a bad (and the worst) Mass Effect but it's a good game, and since you already bought it, if you like it I suggest you to play Mass Effect trilogy, or buy the Legendary Edtion (all three games are remaster + all DLC) they are far better than Andromeda ;)

It has the best combat in the series and the worlds are beautiful, but that's about it.

Everyone always seems to forget all the bad things about the original trilogy and only focus on the bad things about this game. it's a great game. The combat is the best it's ever been in the series, the exploration is a lot of fun and the story is very passable.

After the awfulness that was Mass Effect 3's ending, this is like a nice buttery, salty popcorn with a drink watching a fun movie for a couple of hours. Sure, it's not life changing, but it's a great time.

You're right, there were some bad parts of the trilogy too. I thought the good parts of Andromeda were the graphics for sure, but I'd say in my opinion 90% of the quests were fetch quests. Back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. The facial animations were insane, and the dialogue choices didn't make any sense at all, and it just felt really childish to me.

I'm glad you liked it but I didn't have a good experience with it.

I couldn´t complete Mass Effect Andromeda, it´s that horrible, so no don´t buy it. I would buy an indie game in stead to support small game developers.

Great game. I'm playing the first one right now and man it's a PS2 game . Without Andfromeda i dont think i'd be a Mass Effect fan, the gameplay alone and the graphics are better.

[Nait]

No. It's abomination. Avoid it like fire

[Noodliest]

Wait until free.

lol xDDD

I loved it, i'd say its the second best entry if you ignore the animations, its fun and some of the characters while unfleshed out, are fun to get to know.

Wait few days for Legendary if you think ME1 is like a PS2 game or just mod it, Legendary it's the best way if you want discover the best of Mass Effect games

I enjoyed it, but:

. The quest design leans *heavily* into MMO style fetch quests, and it is *so* boring just traveling back and forth between all the planets for small side quests, spending ages in loading screens for little payoff. This is the worst part of the game: It's built around intentional padding that isn't fun, reminiscent of Ubisoft's style.
. The story and themes are poorly thought out. I'm really surprised the writers never stopped and asked themselves basic questions about colonialism before assuming this made any sense.

I still had fun because I'm a bit of a fangirl with the property. I still liked the characters (mostly) and enjoys seeing them through the journey. I also think it's considerably better than the first Mass Effect.

Two of the three tie-in novels -- fangirl, hello -- are really great, too (Jemisin and Valente) and expand the game in great ways. (The other tie-in is atrocious.)

Are you implying space colonialism is bad? I hope you realize open borders and illegal migration is a form colonialism. I’d bet you think this is super cool. LOL
