Love it or hate it?

I love Andromeda a lot of the time.

But I hate it it every time I see an ascendant.

I hate it again 10 minutes later when the ascendant is still alive because my last two effort to Cobra it post-orb were defeated by its stupid floppy animation.

I hate it every time I see the Archon. My daughter's toy poodle looks more menacing. I mean that LITERALLY, not figuratively. _CORYPHEUS_ was a more interesting villain.

I hate it for a couple minutes every time I go to do a mission in the Kadara badlands and realize I have to pass through two loading screens and then run through the slums. I hate it almost as much every time I go to open a door in the Kadara market.

I hate it every time somebody mentions napping for 600 years.

I hate it every time I see a close-up of Cora's face in a cutscene and realize she ALWAYS has the same little grin, no matter the circumstance. Seriously Cora, your plastic surgeon really gave you too much botox. You should sue.

I hate it every time I run the short mission with the "other" twin and find myself wondering WHY THE FUCK does it take two clips worth of headshots to take out one Kett Mook. Who thought this up? Who thought it would be fun or engaging? Seriously, FUCK YOU Bioware Montreal level designers. Fuck. you. (Sorry, just did this. Done it three times now and It _REALLY_ irritates me. Not only is it lame gameplay, It just DESTROYS the dramatic purpose of the mission.)

Come to think of it, I sort of hate it every time I listen to Liam's banter on Habitat 7. Liam grew on me over time, but the first time on Habitat 7 all I could think was "What the %^&* was Alec thinking when he recruited this yob? As a member of _the_ RECON team, no less?"

I hate it every time I realize I've run about 30-40 MP missions since the last time I opened reward boxes...and now I have to spend a preposterous amount of time opening 6 dozen or so one by one. Add a damn "Accept all" button.

I hate it every time I think about weapon balance in Multiplayer.

I hate it every time I think about the menu interface. ESPECIALLY in the multiplayer lobby.

I guess I love the game a lot AND hate it a lot. Kind of like a girlfriend with borderline personality disorder.

I played DA2 the most also. The entire ensemble was super entertaining to me. Snarky F!Hawke with Varric and Isabella is my favorite combo.

yeah, I am too DA2 fan. I actually even liked most of the cast in Inquisition, and my Inquisitor, but that's about it, and I did not like how it ended. People have this problem with MET, I have it with Inquisition.

Overall, I felt like a lost of endings/consequences in DA frnachise came out of the left field (remember that banter with your companion in the beginning of the game about his sister that had nothing to do with your relationship? Well, that's why he dumped you 40 game-hours down the road, and there is no way to change it. Huh? Should have read a walkthrough?) , and I did not seem to jive with the choices they expect me to make to get if not good, then at least definitive endings. I feel like I have to pre-read the "Major Decision Points" before starting the game with DA, or I am not gonna like it. Not that it would have helped with the Trespasser. And I really prefer to play games by ear, doing what I want... and usually it works out alight. But not in DA.

In this respect, Andromeda is completely different from both MET and DA franchise. You get exactly what you bargained for, AND it is a happy ending. I was like... really? Me? Both a hero, AND in a happy relationship? And in a good health? And nobody died, not even the fish? Okay, okay, keep breathing, I am sure there is a cutscene coming that... nope. All is well. I still need a few days to come to terms with actually being handed out a happy ending after four games (MET counted as one game) in a row with at best "bitter-sweet" outcomes.

Love it. It has flaws but none ruined my enjoyment of the game.

I enjoy it. As much as ME1. I hope the sequel will break free from the trilogy and be something different.
