For those of us loyal to Bioware and the Mass Effect trilogy who have also purchased ME:A - We should receive a discount on the upcoming Anthem to make up for some of the disappointment in the new Mass Effect title.
And yes, I have played it (160+ hours) and enjoyed it for the most part but there are still several quests that are bugged even now and its lacklustre in terms of what we have come to expect and were led to believe the new game would be. So come on Bioware, restore my faith in the gaming industry and give loyal fans some kind of recompense, even if its just some free packs.

No one gives a crap how entitled you THINK you are to a game being only exactly what YOU want.

There was disappointment? Only in the sense that the game had been hyped up so much but fell short of it in so many ways.

I wouldn't be surprised if they gave some sort of loyalty pack as they did in MEA's MP.

They basically refused to talk about the game until two months prior to release. They stated exactly what was in the game and if people over expected due to over analyzing what was being talked about it is there own fault not BioWare.

If you are unhappy with the state of Mass Effect: Andromeda to such a degree that you feel compensation is warranted then that is where a refund should have been considered and sought for. If you are not unhappy enough with the state of the game to have sought or to seek a refund then it does not seem like compensation is warranted.
Quite frankly, I think more people would find fault with Bioware for the discount than be pleased with them: they'd likely see it as Bioware tying the "apology" to the purchase of a new product that may hold no interest for the person the "apology" is directed towards.

That's not how big companies work. They don't give you discount on something because that other thing was bad. It may happen at more local stores, but not in worldwide companies.

Pretty sure there was an official trailer around June last year? And I wasn't referring to Bioware hyping it up, quite the opposite in fact, but more the official reviews and fanbase. I certainly wouldn't have committed to pre-ordering the game if I had listened to a lot of comments over the internet.

I'm going to say no to a discount, yes to special armor/weapon skin or certain class of armor. I forget what game it was, but if you had played previous titles you got some additional in-game content. I'd be ok with that.

Would you please list which quests you are finding that are still bugged and briefly describe the bugs. Why?... because I'm still playing the game through; but AFAIK I have successfully completed all quests and tasks on Eos, Havarl, Voeld, and Elaaden. That is, there have been none that have been bugged in such a way that I could not complete them.

You know I wasn't going to, but i've come back to this thread because it's really fucking annoyed me. You can talk about how your OP was tongue in cheek all you like, but it's not really. This is something you genuinely want to happen. No, something you think actually should happen because of how let down you've been by Mass Effect Andromeda. Something you would welcome if it did happen.
Woe is me, the game didn't meet my expectations and therefore Bioware should give me a discount on the next game I choose to buy from them. What an absolute load of shite. I suppose people who enjoyed MEA should have to pay above full price for Anthem then? Is that how your system works?
You freely admit to having played more than 160 hours of this game. One hundred and sixty hours ffs. How much did you pay for it? How much has it cost you per hour of gameplay? How are you even defining value? I guarantee you have SP games in your collection that lasted 10 hours and cost the same. Were the animations better in one of those? Is that why those 10 hours left you wanting the next game from that developer and this 160 hours left you believing you were due some kind of rebate?
I'm not an angry person and unless you tag me with something in response that pisses me off then I doubt i'll come back into this topic, but in summary, this kind of entitled crap is a big factor in the reception MEA got in the first place.

Obviously that ain't gonna happen but let's be real folks. ME:A was neither terrible, nor was it the second coming of Christ. However it was overall a below par BioWare experience imho. Admitting that doesn't make you a hater, just as enjoying the game doesn't mean you have to overcompensate and say it was fantastic.
We have a right to be disappointed and those of us who were shouldn't be ostracized for that, but I wouldn't say it was bad or that I deserved any compensation. I'm content with what I got for my money.

The entire OP is nothing but someone who expects BioWare to fall on their knees before them, pleading, "Oh, onemore68, will you please forgive us for making something YOU didn't like, the most terrible and egregious thing we have ever done? We present this offering to you, in hopes that YOU may show forgiveness upon us for our sins."
It's an hilarious thought; that is, for people who enjoy things where the fandom isn't overrun by people who genuinely think like this.

There really is an ugly dichotomy in this forum. Anyone who presents a view that is not people's own gets sort of ganged up on. It's like people can't even hear someone else's opinion if it differs from theirs.
Also, they have been hyping this game for years. They showed up to E3 a few years back just so show the mako and armor. Nothing else. Mako and armor. If that ain't hype, I don't know what is.

From what I can see, most of the posters in the thread that have disagreed with the OP have just done so and for different reasons and nothing more.
