Liked game first PT not so much second.

On the one hand i am noticing more bugs due to the new game b plus...but on the other hand my appreciation of just how well written this game is continues to increase. There are just so many little throw away subtle lines i dismissed my first pt but now make so much more sense.

We're on the same sheet. I just can't wait because the new rig is going to give me the feels regardless of what I already know. I know it's silly, but dog-gone-it I cannot wait. Especially to see Inquisition again on the new screen. This rig didn't do it justice. It still won't cover the unpolished voice acting, amateur-hour writing, etc. but I can still appreciate the art and the function (which is improving, but still lacks PC-style controls) and the music in every title but Andromeda. I can still compliment, but I still have to criticize because I can't be politically correct and feel good about myself. I'm going to decorate the front of the rig with the BioWare symbol and the Frostbite logo. Be jealous Bethesda, CDPR, etc.

Foe me it is the opposite because now I know what to avoid. Sabotaged electrical panels on the nexus who gives a fuck, medical caches, don't care, drones, find them yourself. Main missions, monoliths, vaults and loyalty stuff.

Same, I liked it a lot on the first but on the 2nd it's becoming apparent how the worlds are pretty barren and the game makes you do way too many meaningless back and forth quest where you just spend a ton of time travelling between locations for no good reason or reward and it gets pretty annoying after a while.

The planets should have been smaller and had more interesting monsters on them. Possibly some boss monster lairs and stuff would have been cool. There should have been worthwhile loot for you to hunt but nothing you can find can compare to stuff you can craft (except fusion mods). There should have been some unique placed items that you could find but you'd have to fight through a hard dungeon to get to them basically. 

I've played hundreds of hours in skyrim but can't do it in this, the worlds are simply too empty. They are really big but the game doesn't actually give me much incentive to go exploring.

Yeah i found this as well I've easily done 1000s of hours of Skyrim over the years. Yet even to this day i can go out exploring and always find something interesting.

God i don't think i have played any games more than i have Morrowind , Oblivion and Skyrim.

I was sorta hoping that MEA exploring especially how they hyped it. That it was going to be maps like Skyrim. Living , breaking worlds that you influence the ones living their day to day lives.

While the main story would of been more akin to that found in Witcher 3 in intense telling. With choices and decisions of depth only found in the original Mass effect series and companion style better than DAI.

Especially for games these days in 2017... alot more is expected especially when building on a beloved universe like Mass Effect.

I really enjoyed my first experience with this game but I'm struggling to finish my second run-through. I love parts of the game: some of the characters are enjoyable to interact with, learning what I can about the Angara is fun and I have a few story missions that are a pleasure to play. However, there's so much stuff that is in this game that I just don't want to engage with again (or engage with period). Part of it is the burnout and open-world has always been unfavorable to me. I also examined the game's writing and gameplay critically, so much untapped potential and way too much "playing it safe" makes me dwell on what could've been.

I do still like the game and will go back and play the DLC when they release it. I'll have to see how everything plays out. I suspect I'll replay Andromeda two or three more times before the sequel comes out (I even played Inquisition about four times despite it being one of the weakest Bioware titles for me).

I should note that I replayed the games of the MET over and over again (at least 50x for 1, 30x for 2, and 5x for 3 [the ending smothered my drive to go back to re-experience it]) and didn't change how I played them. Every choice I made in the Trilogy remained the same. I just wanted to experience the world and the story again and again because I fell in love with it.
