Mass Effect Andromeda Video - NEW

Some positives and some negatives. Environment looks crisp, as do the gameplay movements. Like the idea of having a Ryder family but as others have said I hope they're not used as a cheap source of tragedy because as at this point it would come off as very cliche.

Cutscene didn't look impressive to me: lipsynching, body proportions, and movements all appeared off. I don't think you can chalk it up as pre-alpha since this was polished up for release to the public. I also didn't find the characters facial details particularly impressive given this game is slated for a 2017 release and doesn't look any better than DAI. Hair still looks plastic, over shiny, and lacking in detail and I'm skeptical it moves dynamically. I certainly wouldn't invest the money to move to 4K gaming based on that one cutscene. Maybe, hopefully, it gets better. But on balance it'll probably be worse since you know they won't put the same amount of effort into every single cutscene as what they show in the marketing material.

If the combat system is refined as the general game movements that would be a big plus. N7 day should provide that answer.

Hype level: moderate.

Well he always does good job (with the exception of Consular is SWTOR) so no complaints here

Looks great! But.... Did anyone else feel that "hair vibe" from Dragon Age Inquisition

While hairs might look like that because of Bioware not be able to handle Frostbite in that department, hairs didn't look good in any Bioware games, as far as I recall. Only Sheploo's hairs look better then the norm, the rest looks pretty bad.

I think you mean PC hair. They're perfectly capable on making good (or decent if you're picky) hair for companions.

And we did hear a robotic voice in the mission...

It doesn't really matter if you're wearing nothing or clothes as far as bullets go. They'll do pretty much the same damage.

All this nonsense about exposed flesh. I really don't get it.

I suppose it would make more sense for Indiana Jones or Lara Croft to be exploring in Plate Mail or Space Suits just in case they get exposed to something really dangerous?

There are people who value maneuverability or comfort over head to toe constriction especially if they're not trained soldiers.

It may be safer to walk the streets of America  in full body armour and helmet just in case you get caught up in a drive-by shooting or get run over by a car but it wouldn't be particularly practical even if you had access to the equipment.

I just think it's a nonsensical critique to be honest.

Haters gonna hate I guess. I'm baffled how people are so superficial nowadays to judge someone by his/her clothes. I'm positive we are going to have armors for our squadmembers like in ME1. That's her iconic outfit. No need to hate.

That's a bummer for PS4 Pro. I certainly won't buy a new console for some additional graphical effects.  The fps is the real game changer for me in considering a new console. I love 60fps can't understand how Kojima managed to put a 1080p 60fps game with MGS5 and EA seems unable to do so.

And this is not their site. They can't do shiet. Unless we actively organize massive murders and etc.

Lack of clothing could actually help reduce the risk of infection, I think.
