Chris Morton @wasmadeinthe80s Jan 5aarynflynn Any word on when the PC specs for ME:A will be revealed? Aaryn Flynn aarynflynn Jan 5 @wasmadeinthe80s Probably closer to launch. Sometime in February I think YummyPotatoFace @yummypotatoface aarynflynn @wasmadeinthe80s Any word yet now? Aaryn Flynn aarynflynn @yummypotatoface @wasmadeinthe80s It's February 1... (Wonder why they are still holding back on the PC Specs ) it's almost as if they have hundreds of possible hardware combinations to test and check. tweets. Clonetrooperkev @clonetrooperkev DiscoBabaloo What was the writing process for Andromeda like? It must have been a challenge to create so many new alien cultures. Fernando Melo DiscoBabaloo @clonetrooperkev a better question for someone like @macwalterslives Mac Walters @macwalterslives DiscoBabaloo @clonetrooperkev much more like ME1... a lot of world building. A lot of lore. And a lot planning.

I hope that by a lot of world building they don't mean characters that most of their dialogue involves explaining how something or some society works, like Liara and Tali in ME1. And many other minor NPCs.

A lot of lore. And a lot planning. Lore and personal background stories are among the favourite parts of games for me. If they introduce new aliens/cultures/worlds, they will have to do a lot of exposition, meaning we will get a good portion of storytelling for the first game that takes place in Andromeda. I know they don't plan a trilogy, but I'm fairly certain they are laying the groundwork for more games in the same setting. At least I think Walters was referring to following titles when he said "a lot of planning", since ME:A's storyline will likely be finished with the end of the game.

Because by god, that game had so many needless notes and latters that even one of its character spoke like he was reading a passage from a book. I do hope Andromeda doesn't repeat that. I'm not against NPC having dialogue for the sake of exposition, but if they are only that it can be quite jarring.

I suggest someone tweets Mac Walters with the link to the IGN wiki page. BioWare can exert a lot more force on thus than we can. IGN are misrepresenting their game after all.

Many of them are justified, and DA has a bigger focus on lore than ME, but they went a bit too far, in my opinion. As for NPCs, having a very minor one be a walking (or standing ) codex entry isn't bad for me, although I'd prefer a more imaginative solution. Of course, in good measure, and not being the only way to learn about certain species.

Tyler Norstrom @tyler_norstrom so how does the dialogue wheel work? Do you pick an emotional tone, and then pick your response? Or what? Ian S. Frazier @tibermoonMore info later Someone who tweets @lisupoland Ian, its February already and ME:A is almost released and you people still use that "more info later" phrase? Ian S. Frazier @tibermoonYup.

I'm sure the Ryder twins will be terribly bad at something else, just to make us feel better. They can't make them too perfect.

Doesn't that help "paint the world?". Besides, I think the Loyalty missions is the right place for it and not during "regular" game play.

Poetry I definitely can do without. Dancing is OK, as long as the Ryders can dance. Of course, today's North American club dancing is the equivalent of primitives dancing around a camp fire.
