Mass Effect Andromeda Video - NEW

I played this game back when it was called Halo 4.

Watched the trailer:

+Nice mood and interesting lcation. Visually impressive overall.
-Sexy asari. Do people *still* ignore where to not leave your body uncovered if you want protection (*pukes*)

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.

Sorry if this has already been posted, its a video from playstation access where hollie talks to Mac. He confirms that male and female ryder are brother and sister. He also says the N7 guy is their dad. Sounds pretty cool.

Still, she's dressed to thrill at this point. They couldn't resist going for the lowest common denominator again with an asari "alien" (sarcastic scoff) space babe. And people wonder why I hate this species.

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.

I shouldn't need to build a PC to play with 60 fps in 2016
