If you ask people who played both games I'm pretty sure that the majority would say that Inquisition had better animations. I played both games extensively and I find the facial animations of DA:I considerably better. Of course, there is some other games out there that do a way better job at this than Bioware ever did. If you put some of the better scenes of both games side by side i bet most people would agree with me. And big RPGs always fall behind in that department. Quantity over quality. What other big RPG makers are out there? Bethesda? CDPR? I should be working right now so I can't post videos for side to side comparisons, but maybe you can to prove your point? Off the top of my head the Cassandra vs Varric and Cassandra romance scenes were well animated, and so were the scenes with Solas. I can't think of any scenes in Andromeda that stuck to my head because they featured good animations. I do remember the Tired Face scene with Addison though.  Hey, OP: "Badassly: Muscles don't matter. Technique does." (Imagine how that sounds, I dare you  ) As if Elcors knew anything!  Technique without the strength to apply it properly sucks, Power without technique to use it effectively sucks. Only if you have tons of both you are truly capable. If you have to choose between the two you're doing something wrong. |

Played Up till Nexus for the 1st time. (insanity it took me 5 hours and i really was paying attention to the details) Was cautious and sceptical due to the constant whinning. Yet as for every bioware game i Knew the hyperbole of the average gamer. Every time the same story: Me1 gets released. It got bombed. " oh no! bad combat!, empty words! Mako sucks! dialogue is the same no matter the choice!" Me2 gets released. "oh no! combat got streamlined! bring back the Me1 combat and the open-ness, Where is Mako?, hacking is a waste of time" Me3 gets relesed. " oh no!garbage! Its call of duty now! bring back the cover strategy from Me2! No hacking? autodialogue? bring back 3 choices from me1! it got it right!" Fast forward to 2017. I was shocked to find out that: 1) Sjw BS. non existant. Lies. (P U N C H E S) 2)Bad animations. Non existant. lies. Some Mediocre (facial ones) sure but as of now with 1.07... Just No. the animation 3)Bad dialogue. i want so much to run and kick you in the nuts until the balls come out of your mouth. The dialogue is not bad at all, the opposite! In fact the banter towards teh enviroment feels dynamic and the world feels very alive! i want to see the next Dragon age implement this system. 4) Voice acting. So far no problems. At all. Ryder sounds great. Liam sounds great! Cora sounds great. Lexi sounds great. Sam sounds great. 5) Combat . i dislike the lack of pause, the no radial wheel, the 3 powers mapping only. But it feels dynamic and the powers feel powerfull. To those who say i played only the beginning . It was the right from the beginning that people ripped part anyway. So you haven't even finished the game, let alone played it on release when it was in such a shitty state? Well shit son! Where can I Sub? It'd be good to follow someone who knows what the hell they're talking about. Come to think about it, you should work for Bioware. |

Dude this isn't a Mass Effect game , I've played and completed countless hours of all ME titles. ME 1,2 & 3 ARE Mass Effect games , they stay true to the charm and character of the game , the soundtrack sounds great and had that sci-fi feel to it. Granted the VA sucks for Maleshep ( but I always played Femshep) I could go on but you get the idea ... ;-) Feels like Mass Effect to me.  |

5 years for GBH, locked up being someone else's plaything, and all over a game. Not worth it in my opinion.

Bastardizing the Jedi code is a new low.
Just because some Krogan does something edgy doesn't make it a Mass Effect game.

kiding myself? I was just saying to an other person that she was not the only one loving the game because that is what she felt. that's it. Sure, I wasn't targeting you. What I meant was that I find this "I feel like I'm the only one who likes MEA" thing exhausting, because it's obviously not true, especially on this forum. This probably my fault, cause I read too many youtube comments   |

I'm finishing the second PT, and with 1.07 the last vestiges of giving any credit to anti-Andromeda lobby has disappeared. Animations are fine now. The rest I've personally always liked. oh, wait. Still no complexion/skin change in cc that limits use of some presets. That's about it. enjoy the game, spread the word, and don't waste time on haters. |

It does feel like Mass Effect to me aswell only because it has familiar characters (krogan,Asari) but it just doesn't cut it for me everyone is different I'm happy other people are atleast seeing through the games design. I enjoy playing the game but only as a game...if that makes sense. |

Some of the criticism is very valid. Though, the overall hatetrain is unjustified.

The OP is magnificent. - Labelling all criticism as the work of a nebulous collection of "haters." - Declaring everyone decided to hate it from the outset but had already decided detractors were "whiners" before playing. - Hasn't even got past the intro but still knows everyone else is wrong due to clairvoyance. - Empty threats and posturing. I can just imagine him type P U N C H E S with all the self-righteous fury his little fingers can muster. - Knows there were many issues upon launch that have been patched but acts like that criticism should be retroactively revoked. - He then claims people have complained about the combat, despite it generally being considered one of the main positives. So in conclusion...  |

Being critical of something you care about = being a hater. No wonder parts of the world are turning into a polarized shit show. Love Mass Effect, thought the new game was OK but a little shallow. Still appreciate what Bioware tries to do, and hope they keep trying. Am able to live with myself despite my 'heart-full-o-hate'. *sigh* There are no grey Jedi left... Help me Jolee Bindo, you're my only hope!! |

I felt the same way OP until half way thru the game. Sadly I felt it went downhill from there and the bad writing got more and more obvious.  I liked MEA but it's the first BioWare game I didn't love. |
