Now there's a company who's meta scores seem to be immune to buggy, unpolished releases. Personally, I actually didn't want to see a game like Andromeda next for Mass Effect. I wanted to either see a First Contact Wars game, or a game that pre-dated Humanity's first exposure to other races (i.e. a game without human involvement, except perhaps a quick visit to a pre-FTL capable Earth). Even a Rachni War game. After all, the Reapers were behind the Rachni war. |
Andromeda was basically the only route they could go without a hard reboot. The Milky Way is pretty much untouchable for them as a setting. They screwed the pooch with ME3. The disconnect between the audience and the gaming media was so bad that it essentially laid the groundwork for the whole "Gamegate" controversy. The didn't call Bioware out on their bullshit, called gamers entitled, and I don't think the the distrust from that divide has ever really healed.
