Hello Bioware.
This is my 2nd post in the Andromeda forums after my review of the game.
I have seen the updates that you are going to make and that you are taking the critique from the community in consideration. That is good, that is very good BUT
as much as i like the game with all its flaws i also see the point of the angry masses out there that bash the game.
My suggestion is this :
- Make another game.
- Make it as solid as possible
- Go back to the Bioware roots that everyone loves
- Fix everything that people are crying about right now.
In this way everyone will start loving Bioware again like they used to in Kotor / Dragon age days.
Also this way you will show us that you listen to us and do everything in your power to not let us down like it happened this time.
Show us that you care.
Be the creative bunch that you once were.
I have spent 80+ hours on this game and i can tell you right now i seen tons of possibilities to make this game perfect.
Please take this in consideration because i'm 100% sure this is what everyone is looking forward to.
A Mass Effect ,,5'' game that will clean the company's name.
Hope someone will read this and take notice, if that is not the case, i tried...
Thank you.

As these aren't official forums, and I highly doubt anyone from Bioware comes here, I doubt you will get the response you are looking for. Sorry.

Please take this in consideration because i'm 100% sure this is what everyone is looking forward to. A Mass Effect ,,5'' game that will clean the company's name. Hope someone will read this and take notice, if that is not the case, i tried... Thank you. What I have learned being a fan of multiple artistic properties, bands, directors and game-makers is that when an author says "I'm going back to roots!" they're being dishonest and not authentic. You cannot just pretend the last 10 years didn't happen and make it as good as back then or you get  There are smaller, newer studios opening that will give more of that BG or KOTOR spark people want. BioWare is going this way. They can always try to go more into linear design than open-world design but they can't just turn into what they were 10 years ago because half of the people that made up this company back then are not even there anymore and the new people that are joining have their own ideas. But to compliment to your post, I will also agree that BioWare should just stick with their guns and move forward from this game but try to avoid falling into the same traps. Don't just retell ME1. Keep the Nomad and anything else that was fun in this game but now that I think about it the Nomad is underutilized when it could've been used for a real setpiece or a race just one time in the game somewhere. Improve squad-interactions outside of just dialogue like customization, maybe give more tactial assignments abilities but stick to making it real-time. Avoid making Ryder too overpowered both in story, narrative design and combat. Provide choices that contain sacrifices so we don't constantly win, win, win, win until the game is over. Make the story emphasize the strengths of the premise instead of shying away from it. |

So let me get this straight, your advice to Bioware is that they should keep making games, but make them better games?
I hope they do read this because I doubt the idea has occurred to anyone else.

You will probably have more luck posting this on the Mass Effect subreddit. Developers actually frequent there.

The official forum has been shut down by Bioware, the only way to ''communicate'' with them is via twitter. Don't get your hopes up that a developer takes note of your criticism. |

People like Mac Walters full well know they're not being passionate and are just working to get their next paycheck. I mean, look at this guy and his tired expression. He doesn't give a flying fuck. I bet he didn't move from New IP to this just so he could tell more stories in Mass Effect. He's just an opportunist who wasn't interested in not being the highest-paid on the new IP project but he could be as Creative Dir. on Mass Effect so he took the job. Congrats, Mac. |

The moderators here try to 'let them be' without being hog-piled. They do visit, they usually browse invisibly, and I expect they have been a little busy the last few weeks... The last conversation I had with a dev (a few days ago) was by PM to help direct them to threads where there had been particularly useful feedback. |
