Mass Effect Andromeda Video - NEW

Is it just me or do both the Ryder's look 'younger' less experienced, more open, then the two Shepard's?

What I'm happy about is that we got a bunch of general plot information and another confirmation that the leak was legit. If the graphics look like this, even if not perfect, I'm totally fine with that. For me at least it is much more important to have a strong artistic style than technically impressive graphics, and that vault design seems interesting, even if it overuses hexagons (Collectors anyone?). I dunno if the soundtrack in the demo is part of the actual one, but I like the direction of a mix between Arrival and Leviathan. I like the jetpack jump animation as it feels snappy, which I much prefer it over long drawn ones that slow the game down (DA:I's resource pickup before it was patched), also I liked how quickly the panels responded once you press on them. I'm totally fine with what we got. What I would like to see in the future is gunplay and power usage, hopefully you can combo your powers for some interesting results.

Yeah... but the asari shooting is a cutscene, and the shooting at the charging critter does not involve cover. I'm looking for gunplay that shows me the following:

- how close is the camera to my character when I shoot?
- does it still glitch like ME3 where I can lean out of the left side of cover and still look over my char's right shoulder, making him block my entire view?
- can I blind-fire over cover?

The one thing where cover was involved was FemRyder pointing her gun into it, and that wasn't reassuring.

Though I admit, with "no shooting at all" I made an incorrect statement. I meant something substantial enough to show at least one or two enemies getting eliminated in a standard gameplay firefight.

What has been seen cannot be unseen!

This video pleases me.

As for the complaints about the asari's getup, I'd say it's best to reserve judgment. For one, the entire thing may change in the final product anyway, and she might not even be a squad member at that moment, much like Liara when we meet her on Therum, where she wore an outfit no better suited for combat than what this one is wearing.

I'm expecting that sequence to have been highly edited for 'reasons'.

The Dragon Age Inquisition trailers/demos were equally misleading.

Believe nothing.

Ha, this is not toxicity.

A mixture of grumpy and hyped, it's fine 

We can even see the companions switch place during the cutscene. My guess is they mixed at least two (maybe more) small videos for the presentation while avoiding showing too much spoilers.


He does not sound like either to me...

If that's not Nolan North I will eat my parnaps.

what do you mean by this? No butt will be as memetic as Mirandass.
