Mass Effect: Andromeda


Happenstance

Recommended Posts

Well, that's not really fair, Destiny actually has a good story, it just hasn't been delivered properly through the game. And it wasn't the Destiny team that didn't want to give us a good story, but the producers who crushed it to get the game out the door.

 

Anyway, surely hiring a prestigious Bioware lead writer shows that they want to fix this issue.

If i had to choose which one got the better story its mAss Effect over Destiny any day, As Cube said, at this point you'd have thought they would have the story fairly fleshed out for a sequel out early next year, this kind of concerns me that either; they are once again altering a story for the sequel mid development, they aren't as far along with D2 as you'd expect, or have potentially kept content back from Destiny for a sequel and hes in to tie it all together with a neat bow

 

I'm sure its a good thing by comparison to what we got with destiny (why do we have story elements hidden in cards only view able online) but i wonder if his script will make it through again (they made a shit ton of money despite exec meddling, why not do it again?) and what it means for the game of this thread Andromeda, will changes that a potentially detremental take place as a replacement at bioware puts their stamp on it?

Unsurprisingly, been delayed until Q1 2017.

 

Delayed, like every other big game these days it seems.

 

To be fair, EA said this in January.

 

“In Q1, we’ll begin with the creative and innovative Mirror’s Edge Catalyst from DICE launching in May. A great line-up of EA Sports titles are in development for the year and we look forward to sharing more about these new experiences in the months ahead. An all-new Battlefield game from DICE will arrive in time for the holidays, we’re excited to have a new Titanfall experience coming from our friends at Respawn – and of course, Mass Effect Andromeda from the team at BioWare will launch later in the fiscal year.”

 

Fiscal year ends next March/April.

 

In the same thread where I got this from ( sales thread ) I also said it would be a 2017 game. Nothing substantial has been seen of the game yet.

^ Pretty sure they've said that's never going to happen, although it's a huge shame because it's one series that could really benefit from it. They might change their mind to drum up hype for Andromeda but they're massive games so remastering them in any way would be a huge undertaking. You'd be better off picking up a 360 on the cheap. Heck, I'd lend you my spare and all 3 games if you were nearby :p

 

If all the trilogy became available on the backwards compatibility of Xbone, it might be a good reason for me to eventually get one of those.

I'd love to re-buy the games on PC with all the DLC included for a decent price.

 

I'd be happy if they just put the DLC on sale once in a while. Problem is that you have to buy them on Origin with bioware points and its just a bit of a mess. This is why I would just prefer to buy the whole trilogy again.

Oh, and official controller support. It's crazy that you need a mod for it.

 

Does the mod work ok for all three games? With EA saying they're not going to release a remaster I'm tempted to give up waiting and just play the trilogy on PC. Would hate to use mouse and keyboard though.
