New Mass Effect: Enhanced Pictures And Artworks (Updated)

Clue, source.

Actually, as far as Andromeda's commercial performance goes, in your previous post, you quoted $110m from net sales? Which included all full game downloads for Adromeda's release quarter? So, if every other game in EA's catalogue sold 0 units that quarter and that entire amount was generated from Andromeda, not even considering how unlikely that is, adjusting price for Special Edition copies sold to an average sales price of ~$70, it means that Andromeda's entire Q sales were, at best, ~1.5m copies. Including digital. If EA sold no other game title that entire quarter. And that's a great number ... for 2009. Even heavily discounted for the rest of the year, analyst tracking, as well as my own, puts it at ~2.5 million copies sold. Considering the minimal income from MP mode and zero DLC for the title, we can safely say that Andromeda made EA less money with ~double the budget of ME2, which was released during the Great Recession. Oh, and we also had the H1N1 pandemic during ME2's development, which cost the team an entire man-year in development.



As a business, I would not consider Andromeda a success. It looks like a regression at every point, comparable to the financial and market performance of ME1.

And I still argue that Andromeda 2 deserves to be made. But it needs better circumstances to its release than the current climate. And even in 5 years from now, it's not going to change. And I say 5 years from now, if we are lucky.

I updated the exploration artwork with the one bioware released (not from the book).

The middle figure seems to be a female quarian and not a geth. On the right is a drell and on the left a human. They also have something attached on their backs. We don't know what happened to the keelah siyah but maybe they make it as we can see a quarian and a drell here. It could be not though and they are just these species on the mw and not on Andromeda.

Squad + important NPCs maybe.

The stuff is intentionally unclear. While the top can be seen to be Angaran, it does not have Angaran legs, they have that weird bend sort of like salarians. The leg in the picture goes straight down. So maybe Angaran, maybe something else.
