That logic is backwards. If you want to get someone to like a series, you don't introduce them to the worst game in the series. they're better off being introduced to what got people to like the series in the first place.  Andromeda is not a competent TPS/RPG space epic by any means. What happens if this is the first game out of the series they play but get turned off by it and don't want nothing to do with the series at all? They're better off waiting til this game is patched as much as can be and playing the earlier games first.

I dunno about you, but to me a 70+ game is a competent game for its genre. People are only shitting on it as being a terribly horrible, no good, very bad game because it compares unfavourably to the trilogy. But in isolation the game is by all accounts a competent TPS/RPG space epic. So the best order of play for a Mass Effect noob is to experience a ME:A and then move on to the superior ME trilogy.

I think a 70+ score for this game is the result of some people being lenient on it because it's mass effect. If you look at the scores from some reviews... It's ridiculous. If any other game had those kind of problems, it would have a score around the 60s.  A game that could have been been an easy 90+ plus game if it weren't for its issues. So to alot of people, a 90+ game was reduced to 70+. The good things about the game can't make up for the bad parts. It deserves all of the shit it catches over it where it failed at. How many memes were created just from the facial animations from this game? You don't introduce a person the worse game out of a series before the rest of it.
