The game was just the victim of noob devs, poor decision, and indecisiveness. The Kotaku report on ME: Andromeda's troubled development mentions several issues that resulted in the final game being less than stellar including office politics, staff moved to other studios mid-development, inexperienced developers, Frostbite inadequacies and indecisiveness regarding the scope of the game.

Frostbite was cause of a lot of headaches because it was created for shooters and n...

Cabal are weak?? They are a galactic empire encompassing hundreds or even thousands of star systems! They are an industrial and technological powerhouse. They are brutal conquerors that believe in might is right! They destroy planets and moons for getting in their way! In D2 they are blowing up our Sun which would mean the end of the solar system and everybody who is still around. Weak?? What are you talking about??

The Iron Lords are nothing; most of them are dead and only...

MS are the biggest liars in the industry. They always overhype and underdeliver everything including Milo & Kate, Project Natal, DX12, Hololens, Illumiroom, cloud power, Crackdown 3, Quantum Break, Recore, Titanfall 1, etc. etc. They keep promising exclusive games each E3/Gamecom or any other event but nothing turns up. Phil keeps promising commitment to exclusives and games but there is nothing but multiplats to play on Xbox One. We all know how that promise of 42 exclusives at E3 2017 t...

Well that was almost 10 years ago... He is most likely talking about recent years.

I am still playing it and it is great fun still especially PvP. The PvP offers a different flavor compared to D2 with quicker kill times, lower ability recharge times, and special weapons. I will quit though once D2 has been released. However, if I do not enjoy the PvP changes in D2 then I might return to D1 for PvP. However, new players just entering the Destiny franchise do not need to play D1 first. If they want to learn about the lore and story then just read some lore articles or watch s...

Nope, fans didnt kill Andromeda, noob devs killed it. Read Kotaku's report on ME Andromeda and you will find out why the game turned out the way it did. Read my post above for a summary of the article. The biggest reasons for the game flopping is that the devs were inexperienced and they were trying to build a procedurally generated galaxy. They spent 3 years on it but gave up in the end when they couldnt make it work. The release date was soon approaching and budget was running out so th...

You didnt know? They already have been. The studio was first downsized and demoted to a support studio, never to receive another full game to develop on their own and then later it was absorbed by a new EA studio. They are finished and dead and so is Mass Effect franchise at least for the foreseeable future. Just search on google or youtube and you will find the details.

@ONESHOTV2

So why did you buy a PS4 if not to play exclusive games?? I am genuinely curious because you can play multiplat games anyhere including Xbox and PC. Similarly why would you but an Xbox if not for exclusives because multiplats can be played on PS4 and PC?? What is the point and logic of buying a console and especially multiple consoles if not for exclusives? Consoles are all about exclusives because multiplats can be played anywhere and they work much better on PC...

There are some very good game in that 412 number but most it is just shovelware only present to inflate that number. I dont think anybody was dying to play Disney Bolt and many other similar games once more on their Xbox One consoles in 2017...

And MS and their fanboys keep claiming Sony announces games too soon and delays them later. Man, the irony is hard. This game was announced in 2014 guys and was supposed to get a beta in summer 2016! Every major Xbox exclusive has been delayed multiple times until it finally released especially Quantum Break. Both Fable Legends and Scalebound were delayed until cancellation. State of Decay 2 and Sea of Thieves were delayed too. Now Crackdown 3 has been delayed again.

It might be easier to reach number at this time of the year but it still takes a special game to reach number 1 repeatedly. There are many "half-decent" and even good games that never reach number 1 again after the launch period or never reach number 1 at all. Nice try to downplay the game's performance though. Activision has already announced that Crash remaster's success is far beyond all their projections so there is no doubt the game is very popular among PS4 gamers.

I agree with you that D1 broke a lot of promises and disappointed everybody. It had barely any content or a coherent story. Moreover, the loot and progression system were broken. But we know that D1 went through a lot of development troubles and upheaval. Some major staff members left and the game was completely reworked for whatever reason and was delayed. A lot of showcased content did not make it into vanilla game. As a result, it was left as a mutilated corpse of its original form. Howeve...

97 activities Vanilla Destiny?? The video is talking about vanilla Destiny when it says it had 41 PvE activities and also gives a breakdown which includes story missions, strikes, and public events. I am going by the information in the video and have never counted them myself so cant say for sure.

Amazing! For comparison the first Destiny had only 41 PvE missions and many of them were pretty short so the game lasted barely 8 hours. This one has over 80 and each one is claimed to be pretty lengthy with rich story. The Edge article mentions that the writer spent 60 hours with the game and still wasnt done with the PvE content! Some pieces of information even state that the story alone lasted around 55 hours and much more content unlocks after finishing the story campaign like lost sector...

Calm down man; it is just a game. If you didnt like it and felt disappointed then you probably got rid of it and that is the end of the story. No need to go on a crusade against the developers for the rest of your life. They were also found "not guilty" of lying by law so we cannot hold them responsible once the law have acquitted them.

I think they have received their fair share of criticism including a lot of embarrassment and humiliation over the past year. How...

Anthem is still too far away. Moreover, it is just a 3rd person Destiny from what has been announced by now. It is a 10 year plan similar to Destiny. It is an always-online multiplayer shooter similar too Destiny. It will also be about loot and grind just like Destiny. Finally, you can bet it will also have season pass, dlcs, expansions and microtransactions just like Destiny. If someone doesnt likes Destiny then there is very little chance they will like Anthem. I have seen some people who t...
