But that ain't no fem.

The new female model looks really weird. I never played Femshep though so I don't care.

I still don't really get what this game is all about.

Travel to Far Off Galaxy on Generation Ship -> Encounter criminal orgs/shady people and conspirators comprised of the same races that were on these generation ships.

Epic experience. Que?

The only reason why I am not writing it off right away is because of Battlefield 1. I know, different development teams, but maybe there is a sliver of hope to start releasing non shit in a box again. Will wait for reviews and see what shakes out of it.

I'm sure it will be a good game from a design perspective however the question remains about how many aliens get to transplain to me why being straight and good looking is only a Milky Way thing.

Pretty much. I'll be waiting a while after release for reveiwers I trust. Which is hard since it's one of my favorite series from a developer that used to be a favorite. We'll see how much they've been swallowed by identity politics in this game.

If they iterated on ME3, then I can't see the gameplay being anything short of superb. I'm not playing the game to get offended, so I can't be arsed to judge it based on perceived SJW ideas, however a shitty writing is a shitty writing. Hopefully this time they can avoid the danger of overexplaining stuff - Reapers were the best in ME1.

I'm still wanting to know how frosbite was used to make Dragon age and now this probable pile of shit when DICE said the engine was so complex they couldn't even release mod tools.

I mean the fact they can't lie very well just hurts!

Hamfisted writing immediately breaks the immersion and reminds you that this is a video game. I actually loved ME3 minus the ending and that wannabe jet li twat.

I was pointing out the shitty writing from Dragon Age:I who have the same writers that worked on this mass effect.

Utnayan Utnayan said he loved Mac Walters.

This doesn't look too good from viewing the teaser they showed at CES

It reminds me too much of DAI which hasn't aged well at all. It even sounds like they are using the same sound effects from DAI when you would close those breaches lol.

They probably did re-use half the shit from DAI to save some money. Sadly I feel like this game has a 10% chance of being actually good based on what we've seen so far and who's involved, but hopefully I'm wrong.

The marketing for this game has been terrible. That two minute gameplay trailer isn't very helpful either, looks like some guy just jumped in on a booth and randomly pressed some shit.

3 months from release and we still don't have a proper trailer or that much concrete information about the game. I have high hopes but Bioware isn't exactly inspiring confidence. Thier marketing so far screams "we've made a shitty game and just need to it get out there without spending too much money" not "this is our next AAA blockbuster that will spawn a new series of games and rekindle gamer's love for Mass Effect."

This game is on my radar since I just bought a PS4 pro. I didn't play ME3 until after the extended ending was released so I wasn't too enraged. Hopefully this game pulls through, but not hopeful. Will be waiting to see what the consensus us before I purchase it.

My expectations were tempered after the garbage that was Mass Effect 3. They cut so many corners in that game and then tacked on an ending that completely undermined the narrative.

Maybe I'm remembering DA:I too positively but I thought it looked pretty good, but the combat system was antiquated. If they've improved the combat and manage to have a decent story I'll be fine with it.

Disappointed they didn't announce platforms along with the date. Makes me think PC won't be coming on that day
