I wish the reviewers had all played on PC, it apparently has a lot more issues on consoles than it does on PC (it had almost no issues for me in the trial).
It's a shame because if not for the bugs and animation issues it probably would be above 80. I also don't think Inquisition deserves the score it got, I can't inagine this game is worse. It's probably better actually but i'd have to play to know for sure.

I certainly think that's part of it. Bioware Montreal was in an impossible position. I said it in another thread but Mass Effect means a lot of different things to everyone, it'd be very hard for them to meet that. Another part of it though I think has to do with Open World games. The scope of the game was too large and aspects of the game suffered for it. Maybe its time for them to return to a more "intimate" type of game rather than going after that Skyrim money (that they never were going to get in the first place). Regardless of the reviews, I'm still looking forward to it. I just can't stand those people who are in the irrational part of the hate trend towards BioWare. No matter what BioWare does, they will hate and hate some more. BioWare is unfairly in a No Win Scenario.To be fair, they moved them self in that position over a couple of years in which they consistently disappointed their fans in one way or the other... is it fair - especially to the "new" team? Not really, but it's not totally undeserved either.

Ok. please link. Sorry for the spam. I REQUEST SOMEONE TO LOCK THIS THREAD ty Not a problem at all, it's a bit busy on the forum at the moment... This is not to hide or stifle anything, if people want to start a thread to discuss specific aspects raised by the reviews, then please do, but a separate thread for each review is 'problematic'...

Hate to say it, but with the mediocre reviews and the bad press with the animation memes going around, the future of this series might be in question if it doesn't sell well. Also, called it btw: A lot of people thinking it's gonna get high 80s or low 90s, is gonna be eating some serious crow on Monday.

Compared to the early reviews of inquisition this is a bit of a contrast. From what I remember, inquisition had mainly positive early reviews but with andromeda it seems like the opposite. Im kinda surprised that ign and gamespot gave it somewhat low scores considering they got exclusive interviews and footage. Despite positive reviews, I was overall disappointed by inquisition and the more I saw and heard of andromeda leading up to release, the more I was discouraged this definitely adds to that. Unfortunately, it seems I might be disappointed with andromeda as well, but I still wanna give it a chance. I guess I'll ultimately have to wait and see how I feel about it tomorrow and over these next couple of weeks but it's not looking good so far.

If ME going under means DA comes out faster than fine let it burn.
ME should've been shelved after ME3 anyway.

They once had their niche where they could shine, and they squandered it, and now they have to pay the bill. I mean, sure, EA probably had a big hand in that, still doesn't change the situation, though.

Also, called it btw: A lot of people thinking it's gonna get high 80s or low 90s, is gonna be eating some serious crow on Monday. I really don't know how much reviews even matter to sales anymore to be honest. It's in the green on metacritic, will the casuals who probably make up the vast majority of the sales even care that it's lower than the previous games? If anything i'd say the social media response is more likely to negatively affect sales and even then, will people care? They might just buy it because it's another Mass Effet game.

In fairness, I was expecting mid-80's so it's about a mark off. That's not going to stop me enjoying it, but your prior call is noted

"We learned from The Witcher, guys! Please buy our game now"
-75 metacritic
I think it's safe to say BioWare cut their losses about releasing this thing now. It wasn't worth it to polish it up further if its core concepts were that far from greatness.
Anyone else canceling their pre-orders?

Didn't expect this but what can be done. Chances this will be a trilogy are much worse now. I say they should continue Andromeda, Bioware has too big of a tendency to throw away anything criticized (inventory, mako etc) instead of fixing and iterating, but they'll probably just ditch the whole thing and do something else in ME universe. As a point of order, ME2 is certainly not as good as people think it is. It was extremly polished though, similar to Assassin's Creed 2 around the same time. Presentation matters. I can easily imagine Bioware continuing something of any bigger ideas they had of Andromeda arc, and just including/transforming it into part of something else (in smaller and different forms).
