Andromeda Preview - Kotaku: 'Behemoth of a sci-fi action RPG'

I like hearing the increased dialogue options are nice, that Ryder doesn't sound like a soldier cuz they're not really and that NPCs notice your side-quests, that'll help a lot even if they are just bland fetch ones.

With a game with supposedly a lot of lines I'm not surprised there's an odd line or two

My Ryders animations are great too: sometimes, I think I'm truly think playing a different game to the whinebag fucks who are burning down Batarian churches whilst yelling "you, animation, you are a blight!" in all corners of the traverse.

Maker-forsaken meme gif whine echo-chamber tsunamis, they really grind my gears...man  

Look I was expecting that reviews would be mixed solely on the fact that this game is different from the rest. I'm not saying there don't appear to be bugs but I'm still very excited and know I'll love it.

i get that feeling every time someone opens up their mouth about da i. (Slight exageration obviously)

Yeah. 

I hear a lot of references from ppl to DA:I. I loved that game. 

The Devs have talked a lot about The Witcher as inspiration. I loved those games.

I liked the original ME trilogy. Including the ending.

So, I'm not worried. 

Well, actually I'm worried about the gaming community itself. They are turning into a bunch of whiny bitches.

"Fancy words are not gonna save you!"

Kidding aside, I can't just enjoy it and pretend there isn't several recurring distracting elements in it. I keep feeling like this gen of gaming is full of game project on a production scope that totally inflate the development. I'm also torn on the roleplaying. Looks like Mac told the team to keep it ME3-style after all because Ryder sure speaks a lot by himself in every scene and we always only have 2 choices that are always, always just different ways of saying the same thing. I hated the open world in DA:I and i was disappointed in the story big time but I loved everything that had to do with customization. It had some of the best dialogue/roleplaying options ever. Not that I dislike doing the tone-options in this one... but it's just kind of redundant sometimes. "Do I wanna say this as if I'm excited about it?" or "Do I wanna agree in a professional way?". I don't feel any of it characterizes Ryder and I'm not making a lot of "choices" either. He's just locked into character and I just press the "play" button. I seriously doubt any choices aside from companion development will matter in this game.

For all the things I read about the game, I am still think it is going to be a classic. Sure the CC is not great and it needs some polishing on the animation department but I mostly laugh about those, it was never a deal breaker. That is why I do not get the doom and gloom people are feeling.
