What was the major fault EA and Bioware made with Mass Effect Andromeda as I see it

But I agreed with the critics that the facial animations were flawed and that the story wasn’t as compelling as it could have been."

The biggest mistake was to ever call this game the fourth Mass effect game. The first trilogy was so groundbreaking and fresh even with the ending in mass effect 3. That there was no way with most of the original staff haveing left after MA 3 and new management being under EA's Direct control like Harbinger taking control of a collector. that this game could have ever lived up to Mass Effect. If anything this game should have been referred as a Mass Effect story as it takes place in the same game universe. But the really has little to do with the first three games. I would have called it Andromeda: A Mass Effect Story. If I were to take the game as a Mass effect game I would say the writing fell flat to the point I did not fell a connection to most of the characters. However, one you dig into the game most of the main characters have a great backstory and there is a ton of potential behind them for future titles and expansions. The big glaring fact is that the Ryder's don't have much of a backstory and are thrown into something they're not ready for. Overall the game to me discounting or ignoring the fact that they wanted to tie this into a direct successor to the mass effect trilogy. Is that this game is a good to great prolog to a story that over time could develop into its own and I think that is what the developers were going for. But ultimately EA had to stick their noses in where they don't belong and had to force the Mass effect into the title to make the marketing department happy. I also know the game needs a lot of fine-tuning and fixes but my point is they should just not let this game die. I still want to see more and I want expansions and sequels. I would even suggest a game mode called classic ME where the story lines in the game come at you in the right order as the go anywhere and start any mission thing with this game relly makes the story fall apart and you miss some of the best writing in the game. playing through the game I realized that some missions were written to take place after other missions had been completed. a classic ME mode would be a way not to get bogged down by all the side crap handed to you from the top of the game and would lock missions that are out of story order and you would get those missions after you finish the prereq missions. The other thing is I have never bought a Mass Effect or Bioware game for multiplayer. In EA World that's what DICE is for. I pay for an RPG with great action and story. The fact that their time is going to multiplayer makes me sick as a fan of Bioware. Instead of adding content to flesh out the game more.
