No its the opposite. This generation has generally faced far harsher reviewing. It'd be interesting to see some like-for-like statistical analysis across genres, but rated last gen Andromeda would have been several points higher. Either way as you've said, a drop down for the franchise. I'll still play it day one and hope for the best, but I am pretty devastated. I doubt it'll be the end of the franchise. This game is after SWTOR as the primary reason EA bought Bioware. Hopefully it'll be just like ME:1. Dream a little too big, then winnow down into a real great experience with the second game. ME2 is when Mass Effect's rep really exploded. |
See, never entirely bought into that primarily because it only ever gets brought up when games score lower than normal. It never comes up with, say, Breath of the Wild or Uncharted 4. No one seriously thinks that if they were released last gen those would be 99 Metas. So yeah, I'm less keen on that idea. Still, disappointment either way as you said.
