I don't get why people thought the game was SJW overreach.

There's this thing - where people, for their job, review games - professionally you know. I think they're called game reviewers. They seem to think the game is pretty mediocre as well. Lot of 6/10's, even some 4/10's that mimic my own experience with the game. One or two 9's from foreign sites - but they're probably used to horrid translations so the dialogue and plot might not have seemed all that bad to them.

You don't have to play the entire game to know it's bad. Sure, sometimes a piece of entertainment can get better as it goes along. That's clearly not the case with Andromeda. I actually enjoyed the opening cinematic - that's the last part of the game that felt like Mass Effect - followed by 10 straight hours of cringe.

It single-handedly destroyed a studio, who's GM then decided to "quit" (either that or get fired most likey), and resulted in zero DLC. That's a lot of failures right there.

But at least we got a nice blog post in the end, right? What I don't understand is why those of you that love the game aren't playing? It sounds like such a good game! You love it! But instead you're on a forum, arguing about why it's a good game instead of playing it?
