With the mods permission, I would like to open up a positivity thread for Andromeda. This is where we can freely have positive and thread where we can share fanart and discuss characters and just give out a positive attitude! So what do you want to discuss first?

Certainly the best parts of the game.
I don't know if I'm seeing things but after patches 1.09/1.10, I am noticing different animations on both Lexi and Peebee...mouth and eyebrow expressions seem more detailed. Like, flirting with Peebee I coukd swear there are more expressive eyebrows. Anybody else notice these subtle differences?

Despite all the negativity there is a lot to be proud of. MEA was a love letter to the fans after the dark, depressing, and compromised ME 3. The game restored my full faith in Bioware as a creative company and it ended the series on a high note in terms of tone and content. Not to mention the love and attention and effort they put in through patches. Taking a compromised game in some ways and making it extremely stable.
Out of.probably the thirty plus games I've played and given the tier system to it is among my six favorites, probably number four, which puts it ahead.of TW 3.

The only positive about MEA is that it showed Bioware that they arent invincible and not everything they touch turns to gold.
Let's just hope the failed MEA can set games like DA4 in the right direction.

So, going back to actual positive things about ME:A, I love having a fully loaded Nomad in the Game+ playthrough. Helps getting the game started quickly.

With the mods permission, I would like to open up a positivity thread for Andromeda. This is where we can freely have positive and thread where we can share fanart and discuss characters and just give out a positive attitude! So what do you want to discuss first? I liked the idea of the Jardaans, sort of an anti-Reaper influence in the universe. I'm curious if they'll let us find out more about them and the force they were fighting. I also want to know if this Benefactor is Cerberus-linked and/or why they obviously handicapped the Initiative leadership. Are the folks now in charge all Benefactor lackeys? Interesting questions, which means I cared enough about the story for my interest to be piqued. |

We know Alec and Jien had no idea but some additional clues would be nice. |

I restarted my 2nd playthrough of Andromeda a few days ago, and I made a couple changes on the settings that everyone should try out... Keep the music volume maximum and set the FX & dialogue volume relatively lowI've noticed I can hear the music a lot more often now. I'm even recognizing some soundtracks after listening to them for so long in Youtube  Turn off conversation iconsI have less of a hassle going like "Dammit, I wanna do this dialogue but I need to pick the icon with the cog gears!" and more like "This dialogue would suit my Ryder's personality." It helps when you don't have the conversation icons to judge what dialogue you pick (though I always note that usually the middle-left dialogue is the flirt option). |

What did I like? 1. Nomad. 2. I liked the characters for the most part, I thought Cora was better than Ashley but that's not saying much and Liam was perhaps the dumbest ME squadmates I've seen. (I consider Peebee a lot better than Liara.) 3. Some of the plot twist were great. 4. Dialogue was only cringe worthy AT TIMES. (Banter in the Nomad was a lot of fun) 5. Tempest felt alive. 6. Asari boobs.  7. Some of the side quests were awesome. (Allies and Relationships quests) Just to name a few. |

(I hope Peebee doesn't suddenly become the benefactor like Liara became the Shadow Broker.) |

I never got to play Deus Ex. |

That's what I meant when Liara became the Shadow Broker, she replaced him. I'm talking if they took Peebee down a similar route. I think the whole benefactor plotline sounds like it would turn into a Deus Ex style plot, which drew influence from a lot of conspiracy theories. |

Since this isn't a tight trilogy I doubt they'll make Peebee a hinging character... they may not even make Ryder the lead again, we'll have to wait and see what the books wrap up story-wise. |

Oh I LOVED Andromeda!:
1-The young and lighthearted vibe was just refreshing and so much fun
2-Playing as your sibling in the final mission, you know what the entire final mission was awesome
3- the Kadara plot line (especially if you romance Reyes)
4-The charactes you interact with are great and distinctive (specially Drack)
5-The combat is very satisfying
6-The most awesome stealthy sniper build ever and the ability to mix and match your abilities
7-Liam is the greatest buddy in the series and it's hilarious how he shuts you down if you flirt with him too early
8-The worlds are just beautiful
9-and call it fan service if you want but I loved all the Easter eggs
I could go on and on if no one stops me...

Yes. Same here. Lighthearted vibe was SO MUCH better in feeling than then always lurking doom behind the corner, especially in ME2 which is weakest of the series for me. No all the time "but but teh reaperz.. they're comign". So loved the exploration, which makes ME1 my fave too. Whole feeling was kinda sad, in a way "were now 600 years away from our loved ones, we need to get our act together", but really hopeful and the audio/soundtracks really brought it out for me. I love the sound in this game, more than in any game ever. Game is beautiful and I'm gonna play it, like the trilogy, till I die  |

Just wanted to say, amidst all the disappointment caused by the announcement:
Mass Effect Andromeda is the best standalone Bioware game ever.
Nothing will ever change that.

I liked Ryder's personal story, the whole thing with Alec too and Mysterious Benefactor puzzle.
Also views from Tempest been really well done.

Dragon Age: Origins my favorite game ever (not just Bioware) was DAO and favorite Mass Effect game was ME3, but that is just personal preference and doesn't make me love MEA any less or take away the fact that it was a fantastic game! |
