is andromeda worth it?

[TheSociety]

i heard it was buggy, did they fix them?

[Totally]

Yes it is fixed. They say it's good now, not quite like ME2, storywise.

Why don't they finish games anymore before putting them out? It could have had way better ratings.

[Nerd_Baller]

I'd say it's now worth around 20 bucks. Idiot EA made very foolish decisions regarding outsourcing their animations but worth playing imho

Look at some reviews on youtube by gamers. Look at some play time on youtube also. This link explains a major idea about about why you here bad things about the game:

Now, make up your mind about it.

worth every penny to me take a look thru my screen shots graphics are pretty sweet people were picking out 15 minutes worth of game play out of a 100+hour game.and making it as though the whole game was like that.thats so not true.no its not like the original series per say but a great new begining.it has a solid story.but it is spread out abit like all open world.

it has its own great qualities.gameplay is amazing.just give yourself time to let go of old crew and by the time you do first loyalty mission you'll feel that ME feeling again.played thru 3 times have almost 300 hours in and will play again.only had 2 bugs thru all 3 playthrus they were couldnt end side mission at end of said mission. couldnt talk to person in end thats it.

A reviewer said that the main "problem" with ME:A is the "illusion of choice" (or something to that effect). Many dialog choices are simply variants of the same answer. E.g., a more polite "Yes" answer to a more casual "Yes" answer. And this happens quite a lot throughout the game; whatever answers you have chosen, do not really affect the storyline, except options w.r.t. romancing another character.

That review, for me, kinda make me really NOT want to buy ME:A.

Just pick it up if you find it for like 10 bucks or something. It could've been a good game but EA ruined it. You'll find some enjoyment in it but if you get it for the full price you'll feel ripped off.

[Rosily]

The face animations are eh. It was way overplayed as a meme. The real problem for me is the Gui I would go as far to say its worse then ME1. Other then that its great. The story isn't quite as good as the OT but the world does look absolutly amazing. Its a good game but it has its falts and I say go for it if you like Mass Effect at all.

[Potato PC]

Gameplay is ok, but avoid or wait for lower price if you play for the story.

[Rosily]

Its not getting DLC so it might be worth going for the basic version of you don't want the extras for a higher price.

[Lavian]

As others have said. The game plays fine. The writing (all of it) is pretty bland though. Also the options they give you in converstations are limited.

For example, when a character reveals that they believe in God, you can either say something along the lines of "I do too", or "That's a crock of ♥♥♥♥." There's nothing even close to a middle ground. I was actually annoyed at my options. It's a pretty stark contrast to the options you're given in the first game about the same subject.

This is one of those games where I'm sorry I listened to the critics. Sure, it's not the best game in the series, but as a Mass Effect fan, I can't recommend it enough. I love it, despite some rough/dumb decisions by the devs. Beautiful game that I couldn't put down. Definitely worth $40, although you can pick it up for $20 with current sales on Origin.

Here's some gameplay I recorded showing some combat, exploration, character interactions, and the amazing graphics:

nicely done... welcome aboard ...lol

Andromeda is not worth $40. At all. Not when better games cost half that. $10 to $15 is more like it. Sub-par story (it's a rip-off of the previous Mass Effect games that was done better before), sub-par voice-acting (a few characters are some of the worst I've heard), some awful conversation-writing, inconsistent lore (with the previous Mass Effect games), numerous logical face-palm moments, and numerous obvious cost-cutting measures (like enemies are endlessly re-used, and all the asari except Peebee have the exact same face). Most side-missions are completely pointless, and there are a lot of them; one of the in-game characters, when questioned about what should happen next, tells you to "follow that dot" (a waypoint joke in a game full of pointless side-quests, lol). Amazing graphics, well-designed planets and combat. Worth a purchase if someone likes driving around planets and exploring, but not otherwise.

Game is still a glitchy mess on PC, but nothing game-breaking. Well, not too game-breaking. I've had corrupted saves multiple times, bosses that became invincible at stage 3 of the boss-fight, two waves of enemies spawning at once (resulting in Ryder getting overwhelmed), a mouse cursor that never disappeared (it hovered, stuck in the middle of the screen during exploration, combat and cutscenes - even pre-rendered ones), squad-mates who disappear through the ceiling, a pilot who fuses with his chair, two of the same squad-mate spawning at once, missing dialogue (there's clearly supposed to be dialogue, but there isn't; whether the game glitched or it was simply never included, who knows), dialogue that gets cut off or over-ridden (because SAM never shuts up). And this is after Patch 1.10, which is the final single-player patch. Facial animations aren't stunning, but are generally acceptable now, though, so there is that.

It's available on Origin Access. The beginning is increadibly lame and boring. Most of the characters are total garbage as well.
