Mass Effect Andromeda Skepticism thread

Regarding the new sara face I heard if you install the game on PS4 without internet aka no patches, she looks like that.

Yup, and here's a video where you can see the old face in use, for reference: 

So much better than the Sara face we currently have.

Buahahaha... The writers at biowere are pre-teens or something? This is seriously dumb writing. Also, check the lip movements at 0:08... FFS BW... How the mighty has fallen.
Also.. It is just me or anybody else has issues playing with a whinny millennial character? Going from Shepard to this... Its painful...

Yeah, they really should have given both options. I'm still hoping they buckle to pressure and add this alternate face as a preset in an upcoming patch.

As far as the current Sara, it all obviously comes down to individual taste. I personally have a pretty visceral hatred of her face, I just can't help it. To me, it's exaggerated and cartoonish in all the wrong ways, and it bugs me very time I see it.

Well the point of the story is that we are young and inexperienced, but i knew the moment they talked about that it would not gel with everyone. I don't think that scene is as horrible as people think, but it is indeed a low point on the writing side. I feel like this game having 3 lead writers over the course of development is showing in many scenes. The tone is inconsistent. Personally i never felt that connected to Shepard, and already like Ryder more as a character, but its going to be hugely negative on that front when the game comes out. 

That's idiotic. How do SJWs come into it?

Fallen? That sound exactly like 80% of the romances I played in previous BioWare games. They were always corny and awkward.

I guess I am the only one who remember using the following pick up line on Bastilla: "Your face is all scrunched up like a kinrath pup".

I am sceptical not just about this game, but about the future of gaming (I have been for over 10 years now)

You see.. Games have changed alot since they became mainstream and the new age gamers have been spoon fed with instant glorification, preorder bonus, dlcs, cash shops, deluxe editions, simplistic gameplay, auto save functions, no consequences, etc etc etc.. Its slowly become worse and worse and pretty much every large publisher actually makes CONSOLE games and then just port them to PC.. This has been the case with a few Bioware series as well.. they might have started out as PC games and being semi advanced, but all of them are merely action oriented console games now.

I still want to play this, but that is only for the story, the rest is under avg in my opinion. When I want proper games I have to crowdfund now a days or support a few of the "semi" large PC pubs that still stay true.

The fact people have not been able to see this progressions and expected something else than we get is scary im0. I didnt expect anything else than what we are getting here.

I watched live streams after eos and the game and writing is quite good. the kett remaind me of the wraith of stargate and after eos it improves I think BW dont help them selves with their poor use of frostbite for cut scenes and the polish however the acutal game mechanis are improved form the OT I like it and I read a good comparison earlier ME A is like guardians of the galaxy in tone and writing.

Exhausted my trial just now.
I got a mail from a reporter who wanted to interview me hardball questions on the Nexus next time I got there. I got there and it reminded me a lot of Kalisah Bint-Sinan Al-Jilani.
Met Drack who seems like Wrex.
Met PeeBee who is an archeologist who is studying the Remnant.
I received a mail from Cora where she tells me it's okay to relax and stuff. Then, a poem verse.

Why is everybody in this game just Mass Effect 1, 2.0 characters?

Oh and just so you know, the main antagonistic threat that is bigger than individuals in this game is "Dark Energy". Mac or Schlerf are just ripping off every possible thing they could from the OT and Drew's work and it's by design.

Making a poem doesn't mean she's Ashley 2.0. Liam, Cora, Peebee (expecially Peebee) and Vetra, personality wise, are different from Ashely, Kaidan, Liara and Garrus. Drack is closer to Wrex compared to them, but he was described a bit different by some.
Was it directly stated the treat is dark energy, os is that you hypothesis?
