Thinking of finally jumping in. EA Play has that $1.49 deal going on.

ZeekQuattro1905d ago

I paid $20 for it a month or so after it released. A time when It was still getting fixes to correct tired faces. Lol Theres definitely enough fun to be had at $1.49 imo and if you end up not liking it I doubt you'll miss that little amount of money.

RazzerRedux1903d ago

It isn't a bad game. $1.49 is a steal. I paid $30 and felt like I got my monies worth.

anast1903d ago

I payed 10 and feel like I underpaid for the game.

theflamey1903d ago

For this price it's worth a try

autobotdan1903d ago

It's 1.49 on EA Play currently? I need to jump on it

autobotdan1903d ago

I dont see it anywhere on EA play for 1.49. Where is that price??

P_Bomb1903d ago (Edited 1903d ago )

It’s a promo in the NA Playstation Store, under deals. 1 month EA Access membership for $1.49, good til March 9.

P_Bomb1903d ago (Edited 1903d ago )

Edit:
.99 US.
.79 UK
1.49 CAD

Rebel_Scum1903d ago

Wanna tip to make it really enjoyable. After playing for about 5-10 hours, skip all dialogue. The action and planetary exploration is where its at.

autobotdan1903d ago

I thought you meant the game Mass Effect Ad was 1.49

P_Bomb1903d ago (Edited 1903d ago )

@dan
Nah, sorry it wasn’t clearer. You should be able to beat it within a month though.

@rebel
Heh, noted!

I enjoyed andromeda the story wasnt better than the original trilogy but its still decent.

lonewolf101903d ago

This paragraph from the article sums it up perfectly for me:

It’s by no means an awful game but it has a lot of niggly flaws which hold it back. I think the huge shift away from the setting and characters of the original games was massively jarring to fans and didn’t exactly help. I don’t know that it deserves the level of vitriol that’s been thrown at it since release, it’s fundamentally a solid game, I think my main issue with it is that it had the potential to be so much more. With that being said I enjoyed it a lot and at no point during either playthrough did I ever consider not seeing it to the end.

RazzerRedux1903d ago

Yep. That is about right. It was a decent game. I felt like a sequel would have given them the opportunity to fix their mistakes. But EA is still EA.

Unknown_Gamer57941903d ago

True. Play something like Skylight Freerange, and you will appreciate Andromeda...but don't do that because Skylight Freerange is awful. Andromeda is a much better game by comparison.

But Mass Effect 1-3 were great, and they set a really high bar. A follow-up on what was newer hardware at the time was expected to be even better. It wasn't, so...it was a disappointment, to say the least. There are far worse games out there, but it just isn't a great Mass Effect game. I enjoyed what I played of it (didn't quite finish it), but it just made me wish I was playing one of the other games in the series.

Double_O_Revan1903d ago

I regret my first visit to Andromeda. Don't need to revisit it.

crxss1903d ago

i just jumped into this game last month. so far it sits just below 3 for me. so if you can get through mass effect 1 this will be enjoyable

Mass Effect boss Michael Gamble is looking for a production director for the next game in the series

The most recent sign of progress comes from Mass Effect executive producer Michael Gamble, who's looking for help getting the new game done. "Hi, I’m hiring a very important senior leadership role," Gamble wrote on X. "They’ll report to me and it’s gonna be awesome."

medman114d ago

It takes 30 years to make a game nowadays...........

Christopher114d ago

Less creative freedom, more executive demands that change every 3 months.

jeromeface111d ago

50-90 hour rpgs generally do take longer to make...

I hope Mass Effect 4 ignores the inferior prequels and instead closely follows the far superior Mass Effect: Andromeda and Dragon Age Inquisition.

anast484d ago (Edited 484d ago )

Mass Effect 4 should just make Mass Effect 1 but better with current tech. Fans would be happy. As far as romance, they should take notes from the Witcher and Cyberpunk.

Ristul484d ago

Later Bioware games have to little build up. You can have a normal conversation and all of a sudden BAM! The character you talk to becomes super flirty.

TricksterArrow483d ago

Reminds me of Baldur’s Gate. I wanted to practice some magic and Gale made it super weird. Not even gonna mention Astarion.

gold_drake484d ago (Edited 484d ago )

iii dunno about that.

the only really great and funny dating partner, is that outlaw guy anyways haha he was funny as hell.

other than that, i found every character to be very annoying.

ZeekQuattro483d ago

Shout out to Keri the Asari reporter. Current relationship status be damned as she's game either way. Anything for a good story. 🤣
