Yeah, if they do an alternate ending like a directors cut, I will throw money at my screen. Like the series was almost perfect but that ending lul.. EA really should continue the franchise as a sequel and not a spinoff or prequel. I mean I liked Andromeda for what it was, and despite the criticisms it was a decent game but I think people want Shep back.

And the same thing happened to me lol. Will have to repick it up again but from what I played it was great. There's still a lot of time until the next game so time to catch up xP

The problem with Andromeda, based on the first 30 minutes I played, was that it didn't grab me in the first 30 minutes I played. Which was also the last 30 minutes I played.

The first one started out pretty intense right away, establishing a clear conflict within minutes. Andromeda just kind of plopped you and is like "uhhh go do some shit I guess". I obviously can't evaluate the whole game fairly, but it didn't grab me.

The ending very much had an "oh shit this thing is due on monday" vibe to it. The extended one was better, but didn't address the main issues.

True it felt rushed. I totally forgot they already added an extended ending to ME3 because of the backlash from fans of the series.

And yeah part of the problem Andromeda had was its story. It was a slow burner with none of the immediacy, danger of the first one. Plus the new cast were pretty forgettable not to mention annoying - yes, Phoebe still sucks.. just like Vanille from FFXIII.

In any case will replay the games with Joy. Even if they don't change the story.. Just some updated graphics, improved load times and bug fixes will do me just fine. Anything else is a bonus :D
