I know Anthem just launched, but still a significant portion of you guys got to play it early and a few even finished the game. How do you feel this game stacks up against BioWare's last game? Just to compare, here are the metacritic scores for both the games on PC -

Andromeda. Once I got passed the whole Iron Man flying thing nothing about Anthem really impressed me.

Lets just say had to force myself to play and beat Andromeda single player and multiplayer finally warmed up to me with updates.
Anthem on the other hand since release has been an absolute pleasure and still is at 51 hours Origin currently has my playtime at.

I let you know in 3-6 months once I've processed through everything and more of the story has been integrated...maybe add a too early to tell option in your poll. They're fundamentally different games and each has things to offer the other doesn't. Overall I find there to be less tedium in Anthem and the world is more dynamic...but the latter is easier to do when you only have to account for one world version multiple. Right now I give Anthem an 8 which is about where MEA sits for me. MEA gets a big downgrade for me because of how quickly support was dropped and they couldn't be bothered with a single DLC. Anthem could reach 9 for me if the potential is fully realized...but that'll require strong support in the coming months.

Andromeda by far. That game was disappointing, but Anthem is just a mess that doesn't know what it wants to be.

I like Anthem way more - could never warm up to Andromeda, BW fucked that up royally and let's wait a bit before comparing the scores (37 vs. 18 reviews and 3756 vs. 199 user ratings )

I didn't find Andromeda that exciting, but I still finished the single player with 100+ hours played plus quite a bit of MP.
I had enough of Anthem after playing the demos for about 8 hours. It's an underwhelming loot shooter with bland loot and mediocre shooting, baffling core design flaws/oversights and technical shortcomings. It could have been so awesome, but its current state just makes me sad.

I had a great time with Andromeda, I'm having a great time with Anthem. I'm not answering your poll because they are fundamentally different games when it comes to handling content.

Andromeda - due to story reasons and replyability.
Anthem is like improved MEA with IronMan MOD - the problem is EVERYTHING else - lack of content, short and dull campaign, no companions etc.
Andromeda at least gave me a reason for shooting everything around, Anthem bored me after couple of hours of flying around.

Wow this is very surprising. I only played a little of Anthem's demo, but I thought it was more enjoyable than Andromeda. I wouldn't have thought something could be worse than Andromeda. I am still in denial, I can't believe this game is BW worse game.

This. Combat wise Anthem is just MEA but they added flight to the jetpacks. But in making it a looter shooting they took away everything good about bioware games and in terms of looter shooters there are just much better options like WarFrame and Destiny 2.

Of course the Demo was a disappointment at only a slice of the content, it was really only there to give you a taste of what the full game could be. So if just basing your opinion on Demo... My opinion is based on problems that by all accounts are still in the release version. I completely ignored the demo's technical problems.

You're obfuscating, crux of it is you haven't experienced the full game and jumping to conclusions on something you haven't played.

Proof that the things I don't like are still in the game is all over the net. What those are in detail I have posted in the Haters with an agenda Skepticism thread. They were in the demo, they are in the finished game. The End.
