After thinking about it I have reconsidered

lol!!  Is that from the deception comic? 

Stop it, stop it.  My face is so tired with to much laughter.  Love it.

When I first saw this, I didn't expect the game's graphics to be exactly like this, much like I didn't expect ME3's in the Take Earth Back (Take Back Earth??) trailer (though ME3's problems were far bigger in comparison). The thing that concerned me more was the jump jet and how that mechanic would actually work in-game, as well as that melee-from-above move the character makes at the end. I was pretty glad to see that both things were actually implemented rather well. 

Was... uh... was Andromeda the first video game you ever saw a trailer for? 

Not to mention that they are both clearly overly cinematic trailers, the first was released in 2015.  Two years before the game's release.

I bet you were real disappointed when Mass Effect 3 didn't look like this:





Or Fallout 4 didn't look like this




Or The Witcher 3 didn't look like this




If those were the trailers - that far in advance that were clearly overly cinematic trailers (which by the way, many companies do) - are a big part of what sold you on the game perhaps it would have behooved you to continue watching the trailers as they were released to see more or less what the game was actually going to look like.

Either way, Bioware has ALWAYS used cinematic trailers for their games.  Did you never watch the MMO Star Wars The Old Republic cinematic trailers?  That's clearly never what the game was going to look like.  I don't think it's the best practice in the world, but I know in advance of them that's not representative of what the game is going to look like but they look great to watch.

I'm sorry that those trailers are what sold you on Andromeda.  However, I'd question that you didn't just intentionally deceive yourself.  Either that, or you have never followed a video game before.  You're free to look on Youtube at any number of video games that release cinematic trailers

Ok got it, i am an idiot.

Lol...facts and intelligent reasoning will get you no where with trolls.  They will bash on the game regardless of how flawed their arguments are.  If you point out facts that prove them wrong...they'll ignore and keep mindlessly bashing.  It's what they do.

No one wondered. We all knew BioWare couldn't handle their little feelings being hurt.

Which does not mean anything, they had many creator leaving during development which makes the list bigger, and the credit itself can be extended with many means, like a slow paced or if they do actually speaks of everybody, sometime they don't. For exemple for a long time, they never showed the name of the foreign voice actor that did the french, spanish or italian version, it was only the english voice actors. Some name can also be shown on credits and its someone that barely work on it. There are so many variables to take into account that no, the credits time are is meaningless.

Because the moderators weren't there. Period. There was no intermediary. There was no liaison. If there was, they were freaking invisible. Vonuber, I understand where you come from, but shaming is a whole lot better than being told you're awesome and great. That only leads to hubris and catastrophic failures in trust. The old forums were totally mismanaged and getting help there was a whole lot easier than going blind at EA Answers (from the customer base who figured it out. EA = Resolved.) I would come to the forums looking for artwork to make as my desktop. I would go to the forums to add my two cents as a customer. Sometimes it gave me a platform for crappy fan fiction that was just a love letter in disguise to the Bioware staff that made a certain product or aspect. You're going to have the "junkies" like me, who are completely pissed that they bought bunk instead of the good stuff. Either way, a well managed forum will control the tone and intent and still keep business decisions behind closed doors. Vonuber, in my experience, that's a cop out. That's cowardice. That's not having the guts to say that they stand firmly with their art. Of course, if you treat it as a commodity, it all makes perfect sense. Also, Vonuber, I'm not attacking you. I just wanted to sound off on this. Please don't feel like you're under attack. That wasn't my tone or intent. If it did come off that way, I'm sorry in advance.
