Why do so many want this to fail?

Some hope it fails, thinking the developers will then learn, and make the games better next time around.
Others just hate Bioware, for various reasons. Complain about SJW stuff, or the ending of ME3, etc.

Mixture of the ME3 ending, no more shepard and complaints that women and gay people now apparently exist when they didn't before.

Because that part gaming community is made of immature idiots.
Like any other community.
Check music for example, how many loyal idiots hate other bands and start flame wars.
The human species has a long way to go.

Wahhhhhhh. I will try to cover this the best i can.

1) People want to belong in a group. Feeling like you've mates to share your opinion with or simply being part of a movement is important to most. Internet allows you to build a commfy nest of people agreeing wiith you ignoring others. So some people are rough with this game just to belong in a group.

2) Because nowaddays being rough and tough with a game is assimilated with "knowing stuff" or "having been around ". Mental acuity is mixed with critisism quite alot and people would ackowledge you as an expert for being a dick to somebody's else work.

3) Because some players are tied to BW or ME to an emotional level and seeing this game not being what they expected or wanted is felt as treason. People reacts with their hurt feelings in mind not with objectivity.

4) Because some people are mean by nature or are frustrated in life and use internet as a space of liberty to express their darker side or mood with no concequences. Saying bad stuff or running a mock about a game others like is their pleasure.

5) Because the game isn't perfect and the technical issues are a big "NONO" to some folks. They expect their big name RPG to be pristine in all aspects.

6) Because hype train. It's hyped to bash BW and use memes such as "My face is tired". People want to be cool.

7) Because we aren't all equal to video games. ME:A falls in the "Alpha Protocol" category. Some will tell you it's an hidden gem others would tell you it's a shitty game. ME:A asks alot to be appreciated. Not every want/can give all what's necesary to appreciate the game.

8) Because it was marketed as better than the final products quality.

9) Because trolling forums is... A pass time activity... The toxicity of our city of our city... Sorry i had to do it.

I guess most people just want to teach Bioware a lesson but due to lack of social intelligence don't know how to do it without being hateful and rude.

Companies should be slapped if they take their customers/fans for granted and put out lazy, ugly and buggy product.

(When I say ugly I mean only the characters and animations, the concept art and landscape design is absolutelly stellar in this game).

I dont want this to fail, I want this to be fixed withing a proper time frame.
Also I would like some open and honest communication back. Not this "everything is child friendly positive" stuff you get on social media.

Because internet.

Harvesting negative energy is a way of life and for some the only way to survive. Eradicating "individualism" and make everybody "collectively" the same has its price.

The whole hating and Sjw thing really is low IQ stuff.
Andromeda sure has many issues (i own the game but i wont play it yet) but wanting it to fail cause of SJW bullshit is another thing

Perfect!

I hate the SJW stuff too to be honest.
Most of what can be said, has been said though.

Racist Designers, lecturing narrative, yadda yadda. There are legitimate criticisms for these too.

A lot of folks will complain about these things, and still not want the game to fail. (Like me.) I try to be fair when I do criticize, explain that I am actually having fun with the game, but when I get lectured about fracking in a fantasy game...well...that tends to ruin my immersion.

It's just how world works everybody has different preferences, tastes,expectations. Even someones lifestyle can determine liking or hating the game. Personally I'm having a blast playing it, you just shouldn't care other people's opinions too much
