Is Mass Effect Andromeda better than this?

[NegativeZero]

Just finished a playthrough and ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ was this game so disappointing. I've never played Andromeda and now I feel like this would be a good opportunity to try it out since I'm hungering for an actually fun game and my expectations are so low now because of Starshit.

I dont think Adromeda is better then this one, but that is ofcourse a personal thing. It beautifull and good game too but I thin Starfield have more in it and bigger.

for combat and companions a.i. yes the andromeda is superior but starfield is the better overall experience just for the amount of content.

I enjoy andromeda way more but I am a fan of the "usual" bioware experience. And there is a terrain vehicle when you explore which to me is essential when you're traversing large desolate maps.

Nope

It's too late to defend ME: Andromeda you fools. Now we'll just get games like Starfield. Just playing on the safe side with quests less interesting than Elder Scrolls Online.

Way too debatable and comes down to personal choice.

I'm not even talking about Andromeda, which I did not play because modern bioware, unlike Starfield, is actually woke, but the original trilogy. The trilogy had its fair share of big revelations and interesting and memorable characters. If those were very meaningful to you, the trilogy, or maybe even a singular game blows this out of the water.

For me, the massive disappointment of ME2 and ME3 make me value Starfield more. Starfield is better than the trilogy combined. Or maybe it has been to long and I have forgotten ME.

But Starfield is worse than Cyberpunk or Greedfall.

It also depends on the bugs. ME (the originals) were bugfree for me. While in general I have not found Bethesda game too buggy (had luck) I found 4 quest breaking bugs in starfield. With reloads and console commands I managed to fix it, but a friend of mine simply lost Main quest items from inventory. So while the common consensus is that this is the least buggy Bethesda games, if you are unlucky like us, it is the most.

So the takeaway: Greedfall is under-rated.

Andromeda has better combat. Everything else is inferior. THis game is actually made with the technical specs Andromeda was supposed to have before they chopped it all out.

Procedural planets with hundreds of locations, RNG encounters, space combat, and player lead world changes. All of this was cut from Andromeda.

ESO Fam Represent?

Mass Effect Andromeda is a well built game but fell flat with the main quest lines. The stories are weak or unfinished. It could have been really great if they had not abandoned it before creating the DLCs.

Anyway Starfiled is better, just so much more to do. Plus its much easier to mod Starfield than MEA.

The plan was to make more than one game but people hated it so much it almost killed the franchise completely. And now that game seems much better, if you remember it came in 2017. We would be at ME: Andromeda Trilogy right now. Instead we wait for a "future" ME4(5) release while playing StarFallout.

Nah but only Mass Effect 1 to 3 is actually good games.

I don't know what you mean but I play ESO and Starfield doesn't feel to have a richer world as should a single player game vs an MMO.

Not ME:A, the original Mass Effect will easily beat Starfield.

I beat ME: Andromeda (it was fine) but I didn't play this game so, I couldn't tell you.

All I hear is how boring Starfield is (especially at the start until you get like, 10+ hours more into it?) the lame planet diving (stuck with loading screens vs No Man's Sky being able to fly into/out every planet you visit) emptiness, etc.

Get the game and find out for yourself, especially if your expectations are low. Nowhere to go but up from there.
