Trespasser was a nice setup for the fourth one. Finally have a game show you in no uncertain terms where the next one will be.

Personally, I'm glad the religion shit is over. Now we can move on to dealing with the big bad empire.

Aside from people crying about SJWness, I don't really see people saying it's shit. People criticize it heavily, but the end result always seem that it falls in the "disappointing, but alright" to "slightly mediocre" range.


But it's not.

It's irredeemable garbage.

Nah man, seriously. I remember when it came out, all the vitriol, the YouTube vids, etc.

The "it's a disappointment but alright" sentiment is the newer view since the dust settles and it got patched.

Lmao witcher 3 haters. The reason the game is so loved because of how it handles it's world, characters, and story.

It has the most well developed world of any rpg ever made. It feels alive, the side quests have actual story to them, the story is exceptionally well written, and th3 characters believable.

It harkens back to the old school days of bioware rpgs like Baldur gate 2 and planescape torment.

If you go into it and aren't a fan of essentially playing through a season of game of thrones, you're not gonna like it. The combat is the weakest part of the whole game

It really isn't. Coming from hearing all the hate and it being my first ME game, I quite liked it. Definitely an 8/10 game in my book.

The original trilogy is one of my favorite series, but after me3's ending, I didn't exactly go into andromeda expecting much, which I'm sure affected my enjoyment.

So I was playing the demo, and I had some fun.

I didn't pay much attention to the story. Without spoilers, how long after ME 1-3 are these guys? I never played them. I just saw this crew wake up like 600 years after 2185 in Andromeda.

They leave earth after me2, before me3. Then wake up in andromeda galaxy 600 years later. So this game is roughly 599 years after me3.

The combat is fun but the exploration is pretty bad. Every planet is the same thing with a different skin. Quests often require you to bounce between loading screens. Quests on that pirate planet were awful if you needed to go to the surface.

I am someone who enjoyed Dragon age inquisition, so keep that in mind in why I enjoy this lol


I thought Andromeda was worse than Inquisition. Inquisition at least generally kept the quests within the one map and there was nothing as dull as those story hub planets that lacked music for some reason.

pres_madagascar posted...
What's sad is, if they'd just have released the current patched version at launch, instead of that buggy mess, the backlash wouldn't have been so severe.


It still would have been there though.

Oh absolutely. Not denying that. But at least it'd have been a functional game and the complaints levied against it would have been what we've already discussed in this topic instead of "holy shit thus game is broken"

And yeah, inquisition was basically a single player mmo. It's gameplay was solid, and story sucked until trespasser

I'm noticing a trend of games lately with solid gameplay but everything else is lacking.

probably because this has been the absolute worst gen for video games, next to maybe the NES era

Ps1/n64/Saturn gen was significantly worse. We only remember the highlights, but there was a significant amount of dog shit for it. Games have gotten consistently better, we just have nostalgia goggles on.

the thing is that back then there were a lot of absolute shit games, but there were also a handful of classics that changed gaming forever. Zelda OoT and MM, Mario 64, Metal Gear Solid, FF7 and 9, etc.

nowadays most big games are average and acceptable but not great. Only games that I think people would consider classics this gen are maybe Witcher 3 (I didn't care for it but see why people love it), Dark Souls 3, and Bloodborne.

the rest are games that are flashy and cool but ultimately forgettable or not "great" (like Uncharted 4 or Fallout 4) or games where they're amusing to play but as soon as the next version comes out they're obsolete (yearly installments of Battlefield, Mortal Kombat, etc).

Lots of games have changed gaming forever, in all gens, though not always for the better.

yeah. how can a game that becomes tedious before the halfway point be GOAT? And I think Skellige was probably a worse area anyways because the climbing mechanics were shit and those mountains were annoying

Tedious is subjective however, like this entire topic. The game had me hooked the whole way, even did a new game plus run.

Nah, I feel like that's a bit redundant after the hobbits literally save the world and all of Gondor including the king bow in gratitude. They don't have much left to prove at that point.

Pegasus is right. You can't throw in a half-baked action scene after the climax of the movie comes to an end. I mean RotK already had like 17 ending scenes anyway, it didn't need another.

You just reminded me of my theater showing of it where people kept getting up to leave only to have to sit back down.

WD2 is good, as someone who never played WD1. The techy stuff makes it more enjoyable as a sandbox than like GTA, being able to toy around with people/police is fun. There are some neat platforming puzzles, too, which is not something I expected. But there's something off about car handling, and I haven't gotten around to actually beating the game.

First game had the same handling. It's very very floaty. Like the cars have no weight.

It can make the games feel like they lack focus. I honestly don't get the hate boner people have for this company as a whole
