Honetly, I haven't yet because I want to have the best experience that I can have with it. So I'm waiting til it is patched as much as can be. I'm a big fan of the series and I don't want to ruin my appreciation of it. I've watched alot of reviews and read some, so I have a good idea about it. Just by reading some of the critics' comments on metacritic, you can tell which ones were being more objective or biased. Universally, It is the worst game in the series. I'll use the metacritic score for the pc version because it's what came up for first when I searched for it. Mass effect 89 Mass Effect 2 94 Mass Effect 3 89 Andromeda 74 Stop trying to apologize for a poorly made game. You can't downplay it. It's obvious to everyone that it was poorly made or shipped out before it was finished. I think it should have gotten a score in the 60s because of it's issues especially with the facial animations. It either makes the game awesome or it breaks any immerision completely in a dialog heavy game. It influences how you feel about the characters in the game. Imagine what the witcher 3 would have been like with the same issues. It would have been horrible and it would have ruined the whole game. it doesn't matter how good the combat was or how good graphics were, you have to talk to alot of NPCs and there's no avoiding shitty facial animations/bad delivery. It's like watching a movie with really bad acting except that you can control the MC to some degree. With the recent patch for andromeda, I'm fine with the score in the 70s. They fixed some stuff but they got a long way to go. I hope they keep trying to fix it. |
I'm not apologizing for squat. I've been critical of this game. I've complained about the dead eyes, bugs, and substandard facial animations. I was so disappointed with the initial portion of the game that I wanted to rescind my preorder. Unlike you I've played the game. So I can actually compare it the rest of the trilogy. I've beaten ME1 sixteen times, ME2 thirteen times, and ME3 three times. I've completed ME:A as Scott Ryder once and I'm half way through a Sara Ryder playthrough. You are telling me about a game that you have not played. You need are literally talking out of your ass. Come back after you've played the game and we can have real debate on the subject. The fact that you think it's okay to debate the merit of game you have no first hand experience with is ludicrous.
