CRank: 5Score: 140520

Representation is not important in games. And I certainly don't want it to be, we don't need more stuff like the new Star Wars, where they so blatantly shove in a female lead for the sake of it.

Don't get me wrong, if every game I played for the next few years only starred female characters, I'd be completely fine with that - Characters like Clementine, Lara Croft (specifically the reboot/ROTR one), and Ellie are great characters. Fury in particular looks b...

Hardly anyone made a fuss (No real backlash) over this case, and the few that did were all shut-down after people explained why they're wrong. The writer of this article must be extremely nitpicky about what comments he writes his articles about, because this article has no grounds to exist.

Not that much of an achievement, the first was goddamn awful.

You can't make a poll like this before we even see the console. Price will be a big factor too, so what a stupid time to be looking for stats like this.

I responded to some of those points in my response above. The Kett are the weakest part of the story, everything else is pretty interesting. I don't think they really played it safe, to me a Mass Effect 4 using the indoctrination theory would have been playing it safe.

Long games like this tend to get repetitive. That usually isn't a fair complaint unless it's on the level of Mafia III, where they made no effort to counter repetitiveness.

Yeah...

I've only played since patch 1.05, and there hasn't been any major issues bug-wise. Not perfectly polished, but there's nothing to detract from the game.

The main plot is generic, but the lore is interesting. That's not a bad approach due to the nature of the "colonize a new galaxy" story. Another game that's like that is Horizon, which had great lore to make up for a generic plot.

Script and dialogue are fine. Sure there a...

If they don't want Andromeda 2, possibly make a Mass Effect 4. I think Andromeda's a great game, it's a shame the poor facial animations caused the internet to go absolutely ballistic on it, because it is the weakest aspect of the game. It's a great game overall.

Crash is still awesome

Andromeda is no slouch in the graphics department either, it looks gorgeous. I've been just as impressed by it visually as I have with ZD. I don't think that's as far fetched as you might think either, most frostbite engine games have excellent graphics. BF1 and SW:B are the best looking shooters this gen by a few miles. BF1 also rivals the best gams this gen visually.
Facial animations are where you'd give ZD the edge... even if they are rather poor at times too. Th...

It quite probably wasn't his first play through. To beat the game this fast, he most likely took his time playing and learning about the game.

As a guy who once had Mass Effect 2 as his favourite game ever, I think Andromeda is pretty good. People are calling Horizon: ZD a masterpiece that absolutely destroys this game... But I've been enjoying Andromeda a hell of a lot more.

AC: Origins is such a boring title.

Destiny was alright, it has a huge amount of people who still enjoy it. It's certainly understandable that it could beat Torment, at least.

Yes Fable 2 beating so many better games is a crime... Almost as much of a crime as giving Skyrim #1. Surely they did that just to get traffic.

Darksiders 2 had about 2 years of development... They have until late 2018 to meet their proposed deadline for this one, so I'd say it's plenty of time. The combat will absolutely have a lot of work put into it from now to then.

Indeed. I think there's a reason we don't hear a lot from Newell these days.

As a huge fan of the first one... this one didn't work for me, the multiplayer's a bit of a jumbled mess. The difference between TF1 and TF2, is like going from COD4 to MW2. It added so much stuff, and lost the balance because of it. I feel more powerful as a pilot than when I'm in a Titan... and that's because the Titans are so pathetically weak.

The story was alright, but nothing special. It certainly doesn't change that the multiplayer is far less en...

"World War II as a narrative, it’s always been presented as a white man’s war."

Enough... Some of these writers are so stupid, I'm wondering if their brains are capable of more than typing and complaining.

For sure, and they're every bit as capable of telling good stories.

"Film, television, and literature all tell stories better"

Nope.

Health is non-regenerating though, nothing like Battlefield.
