"A Little Positivity (Spoiler free - Opinion)"

Mr. Washington — Sun, 19 Mar 2017 03:32:36 +0000

In lite of a good number of both readily apparent criticisms that are fair as well as a larger number of "jump the gun" and abit one sided critics, I recently came upon an article that does a good job of highlighting much of the things we know about Andromeda that the vast majority of the fans should love at this point.

If there is any one big singular thing that the Mass Effect community is known for, it is that we can very easily identify and point out what we hate and in this particular case love.

Feel free to check out the article if interested:

A vast journey begins soon.

After four plus years of much speculation, anticipation, wanting, worrying, and of course hopefullness we are finally on the threshold of the final waiting period before release. Just about a week away now for the North American release and slightly longer for everywhere else.

Of course in three days time the EA early access period will begin for those who are involved in it so hopefully those players enjoy themselves. Here are a couple of links that detail previously known information as well as some interesting new info regarding things like the pre-order bonuses, number of characters that actually speak within the game as well as apparent new content that is released after March:

"I'm only Human after all"

The official and long awaited main launch trailer for Mass Effect Andromeda has finally been released to the public. It does contain what could be considered "spoilers" regarding the initial plot so those who wish to avoid such things are encouraged to avoid watching it. Less than two weeks away everyone, getting so close now.

(Great music choice as well considering the lyrics at least for the song playing during most of the trailer)

Additional tidbits of Andromeda News.

It's been confirmed recently that following in the footsteps of Mass Effect 3, Andromeda multiplayer map DLC will be totally free for players. Good news for sure for those interested in the multiplayer aspect of the game as well as fans of the previous game's MP.

Here's a solid article on the subject for confirmation:

As well as the above news, it has also been let known exactly how to "redeem" the AI briefing helmet after watching all of the recruit briefing videos.

Details On Mass Effect: Andromeda's Early Access Trial

Mr. Washington — Tue, 07 Mar 2017 04:58:53 +0000

Title is self explanatory and the link below is to an IGN news video giving a brief but detailed enough explanation as to the specifics. Disregard the minor spelling errors they seem to have every now and then:

Sixth and final AI recruit briefing "Golden Worlds and Settlements"

Mr. Washington — Tue, 07 Mar 2017 04:17:01 +0000

As the title says, the last briefing has been released and it is a bit underwhelming compared to previous ones but nonetheless is quite good in terms of information. Notable for getting the chance to hear a brand new character and with a cool soothing accent!

Check it out here and enjoy:

Also, if you pay attention roughly during the middle of the vid it pretty much 100% confirms a particular certain highly popular Milky way race as being included amongst the Arks :D

Quite a lot of information, footage, content and gameplay to go through for a fan recently. Mainly revolving around the following three links concerning a new video and a new page on the Mass Effect Youtube channel and Mass Effect website respectively:

"MASS EFFECT: ANDROMEDA | Exploration & Discovery | Official Gameplay Series - Part 3":

Also concerning the day one patch for the game:

BioWare also has confirmed that Andromeda's file size on PS4 and Xbox One is "at least 45, not more than 60" gigabytes. On PC, the file size is apparently 55 GB. Seems fair to me although regarding the PC it can vary depending on one's own setup naturally.

"We have one more stop on the road to Andromeda".

In a interesting choice of words and certainly a good kind of news for fans of ME3's multiplayer, Bioware has announced that they will be at PAX East this month from the 10th to the 12th. They will evidently be giving people a chance to play the game; however, the main event so to speak will be having the chance to finally play the Mass Effect: Andromeda multiplayer.
