There's something weird in this combat......lack of impact from guns, maybe? Missing or audio or bad audiomix for one. This was slapped together really fast to make it for TGA is the impression I get... the trailer, that is. I think there is still a lot of implementation going on for the actual game and audio-streaming issues was a thing in DA:I so this game might be struggling too. We also saw streaming-related jankiness to opening inventory before the footage cuts away from it, where you can see the UI load up before the 3D assets load in. Those things are worrying if the team decides "everything is good, we're on track." because that's just not the impression you get as a viewer when it's a game that's stupposed to be in its finalizing stages and not its pre-alpha reveal at E3 1-2 years ago when the game should've been ready to be shown in some fashion. Also, there's a lot of footage of helmets covering the mouths while the eyes look rather dead. I think this is similar to DA:I's "Inquisimask" where BioWare later admitted they couldn't get the lip-sync to work for those moments so they slapped on a helmet to hide it for the trailer.

One thing I know for sure is that MEA beats the entire trilogy's art direction by far. All those details, man...

must say that I hope the female turian is romanceable for either Female Ryder or Male Ryder or both I'd prefer there were no dextro LI's but i'll cope either way as long as the human female LI is appealing.

For the most part it looks fantastic and it feels like Mass Effect BUT facial animations for SisRyder are not good and the idea of disarming Turian like that is a little stupid in my opinion. Combat looks amazing tho and driving with Nomad will be very pleasant. Also is it just me or these siblings keep changing how they look. BroRyder at first - looks weird BroRyder in N7 trailer - looks handsome SisRyder at first - so pretty Sis Ryder in gameplay trailer - looks weird Also I don't know if anyone picked that up yet but when they show this HUB on one planet we can see new race on the left.

One thing I know for sure is that MEA beats the entire trilogy's art direction by far. All those details, man... Eeeh, I'm on the opposite end. It lacks a lot of "signature" I feel. The UI is also really off. There doesn't appear to have been the same throughline to UI design as in the trilogy where it had these very angular curves. Now there's this really cartoony face button ptompt, a spinning circle around galaxy map entries, indented curves for enemy HP and DA:I's inventory and crafting screen layout basically. I'm not saying ME1 had a good inventory though, just that most of the UI otherwise was pretty dank, and now it looks like it lacks direction. The new aliens in in that little town also look like some pixar cookie-cutter creatures more than a unique Mass Effect race to me. They're so colorful and human-like looking.

I was talking more about the scenery itself, which is no doubt, the most alive setting when compared against the trilogy. The UI being different isn't really a biggie, as long as it works better, then it's a plus. And the trilogy's UI was pretty much the same throughout the three games. Don't know what you're saying here. It's a good thing they're making Andromeda having its own unique vibe. The new two races we've seen look just like a new race. Unique enough, and the Frostbite allows everything to be more organic and realistic. This game is Mass Effect on steroids, everything is bigger and sexier. Stellar work.

Rewatched the trailer fresh after waking up, and yeah, definitely looks awesome. The only negative I could find are facial animations, but they are in line with BioWare's past. Still hope they get more polished, though. And it was good to see one of those inhabited enclaves, I hope they are more abundant and feel more alive than what we got in DA:I, which was one of the things that made DA:I suffer the most. They don't have the drawback of pastgen consoles here, so here's hoping. As for combat, it looked pretty nice, more fast paced and action oriented as they had said before. It was only a shortish glimpse, however, so I hope we get more in the coming weeks for a better assessment. That jetpack jump + biotic charge tho...

I wonder if all those flashy biotic hits will be good in higher difficulties, never could afford to use them in ME2 and 3 Anyway, combat looks nice, and MP will be incredible. But, well, that MP and combat would be good was never in question, at least for me

Didn't Bioware say they're fleeing the Milky Way? Which isn't true if all they're doing is going to Andromeda to explore. Then in yesterday's gameplay its mentioned that its"your missions to find a new home for humanity". Humanity already has a home. Earth and some colonies. If anything, its finding a new home for the human settlers going to Andromeda.
the gameplay wasn't bad. It was good to not see the asari. when Sara takes the gun from the turian, she has similar animation to the Joker the way her mouth moved except she doesn't have her face painted. I wonder if it was her father that taught her that move to take the gun from the turian? the scene with the krogan, female turian and Sara side by side, looks like that Sara is crosseyed for a moment when she moved her eyes being able to charge in the air was alright. the biotic shield was alright as I said in an earlier post, I like the Fiend killing Ryder. excellent

No, it's for exploration just because (unless they reflect on why in the game) All promo material like Andromeda Initiative website make it out to be a journey for pioneers that try to reach the next step in galactic exploration and it happens before the galaxy knows of the Reaper threat in 2185. So it's basically a "yeah, who cares about the lore" premise. Either way it's an implausible premise but what can you do with the way ME3 ended?

I just rolled up here this morning and then thought - blimey we were due a video yesterday and I missed it (crashed after work in most spectacular fashion). And then I had a look. Well, I have to say it looks great - graphics and images are lovely. Will require rewatches and reading some analysis to think about the rest. I note the A version of atlas mechs to fight, and brutes. That will make MP fun (synch kills galore no doubt). Also turians (yay) and lotsa krogans (also good). It seems the Hyperion crew arrive at a time after other ships have arrived if people have had time to leave the Nexus/other arks and set up on their own?
Well, that's promising at least. As long as it's not like DAI in that the planets are just big empty pointless spaces. And there's a decent length story.

At the moment I'm a bit afraid we're stuck with using only three powers in combat. Ian didn't reply to my tweet about it. Hopefully we'll have an answer soon.

My problems with the game, solely based on the trailer have already been repeat ad nauseam. Facial animation, mostly.
