Mass Effect: Andromeda Official Cinematic Trailer #2!

How about roleplay?

I remember my Mass Effect not by BS Shepard nonsense at the beginning of ME3 (it's not about strategy, it's about survival! GROAAAAAN; well, apparently, I remember that as well). To me it's about the beauty of Ilos, first revealing what the Reapers are, seeing Omega, going on a heist, talking with Mordin about genophage, fighting for Tali on the Migrant fleet, holding in my hands the future of the Krogan on Tuchanka (Mordin: I MADE A MISTAKE!!!!) and of Geth and Quarians on Rannoch. It's synth retro soundtrack and sense of family and all the other little subtle things that make Mass Effect, well, Mass Effect.

I don't expect them to put all that in a trailer (how could they), but I do expect a little more effort than Hollywood Space Action Crap 101.

Also Ahriman, for someone with a solid number of posts, I'd think you'd be a little more welcoming to new posters. Your belligerence to me personally because you don't agree with my feelings toward the trailer is unwarranted and rude. I am not sure what I did to earn scornful dismissiveness and mockery. Now I know who not to reply to in the future, I guess.

This is what makes Mass Effect great, and I thank you for reminding me. I always get that little warm feeling inside when I remember how I loved playing the trilogy. 
But I'm optimistic about ME:A, and I don't see why it shouldn't have what makes the old trilogy great, since the game has been in development for years. This is just a trailer, and it shows the story in just a few seconds. I actually prefer the new briefing video, it  shows more about story and characters than the trailer itself, if you ask me. 


Don't lose hope!  

I think I've watched the trailer 6 times now. I haven't been this excited for a game in a long time

Meh, another cinematic trailer. Would it kill them to show us some gameplay?

I'm going to go ahead and assume that you've seen the multiple gameplay trailers/demos that are out... right? (4K/TGAs/CES).

We were due for a cinematic trailer, I think it delivers on all fronts and then some: and there's a lot to delve into lore/story/teaster wise

Hey, it just occurred to me there's another thing that's been bothering me about ME:A, though admittedly it's a bit silly. Everyone is too damn young! All these guys look like they barely left high school!
