Thank you BioWare!

Well said!

I wish I enjoyed this game, I actually envy people who did. I have a lot of passion and really support Bioware, but I'm also very critical and call them out when they do stupid crap. This game was beyond disappointing and uninspired despite it having some good moments and gameplay. I'm happy for people who like it, but this game isn't a 10/10 game no matter how much you like it.

NO! Be gone from my sight. You aren't worth killing.

Here you go, buddy. GrampaDrack giving someone a noogie.

You're welcome.

Edit: Kidding, of course

you were propably put off by the constant bitching and the double standards people have. So far i am more than amazed.
Andromeda on some aspects just tramps witcher 3.
especially gameplay variety and combat.

I play games for 30 years, and i have played everything that is good. And i want quality over quantity.

You like the game, and that's ok. But don't hype it, and criticize if something is not good. 

Thank you for the Fiend. What an awesome character. Grabbing the Rookie, taking a bite out of the Rookie and then smashing the Rookie into the ground like a piece of crap. excellent

Thank you for Bain Massani calling the Rookie little duck. Would be funny if someone on the tempest left a toy duck in Ryder's cabin as a joke and Ryder spends the rest of the game trying to figure out who put it there.

Thank you for killing the Rookie on Aya

This is what I've been trying to say for a while now. In the meantime we still have to deal with 'I love this game' or 'I hate this game' threads everyday, both sides completely ignoring or disregarding the other. Andromeda's critic score of 72 on PC shows that it isn't a bad game but it isn't a masterpiece either. People don't have to agree with that exact score personally, but so far, every hour I put in the game seems to understripe this general conclusion. For me, a lot of well done mechanics like combat are countered by buggy performance, sometimes shoddy writing and worlds which sometimes can be described as bland, tedious and repetitive. For others, the lists of things which can be described as 'good' or 'bad' will probably be different. That doesn't matter, what does, is that, even though you love or hate the game, there simply are things which are objectively awesome or sub-par in comparison to the OT or other games which have recently released. How much of a fanboy or troll you are shouldn't matter in these cases. Only the arguments you bring to the table to change or improve on these divisive mechanics should. As an example I would like to give the Asari-clone debacle. Defending Bioware's decision to get through with this is pointless and a waste of time. Even when you don't care that much about the clones or generally love the game it's be obvious that they made a mistake here. In this particular instance it would be better if we could just skip the 'you're a troll because you're complaining about this' and the 'you're a fanboy because you defend Bioware till your last breath' insults and just focus on what can be done to improve on this in the future.

So all in all I believe we should be past the 'hate or love the game' stage now. That's something for first impressions and the weeks following a release. What we could really use now is fruitful discussions about the future. Apart from this I also would like to point out that it's still OP's right to post his opinion. I just believe that we should try to move past the 'cirklejerk about how good or bad the game is' and have some actual discussions about the game again.

Wow I suspected something like that might happen if I deviated, but it's cool that they didn't just make it a fail pop up or something. 

Me too.

A long time ago I played original Elite with wire frame graphics and a rotating space station that was so easy to crash into as you tried to dock. But real men (or do I mean idiots?) don't use docking computers. the rest, as they say is geography.
