It's really not as bad as many claim, but still not on the level of any of the original trilogy. I would prefer a current gen remaster of the trilogy over a sequel to Andromeda.

qu1ckset1623d ago

Story was decent, but there was so many lazy things about the game, like all the rehashed enemies just reskinned, al the planets have the exact same objectives for fixing the planet.. I wouldn't mind a sequel if its not a rushed game like andromeda

Mass Effect 4 if anything

However I'd like to see a focus on the RPG elements and not make it much of a full on action shooter, bring back the cool down weapons.

Shepard was breathing in the secret ending of Mass Effect 3 so go with that

Araragifeels 1624d ago

I would love another Mass Effect with Shepard. But I don't know, if Bioware is able to deliver another good game. If they make a sequel, it needs to be more like MA1 or MA2. I don't how can they top the Reapers and give us a nice conclusion.

If they can't make a sequel then they should remastered all 3 games.

-Foxtrot1624d ago

That's the issue, we'd all like more Mass Effect but with how EA are and what they've done to Bioware it's like "be careful what you wish for"

I loved Mass Effect 2 but when they brought in thermal clips and retconned (really badly) the reason why they started using the clips over the cool down weapons I knew where the series was heading. Just came off as any other shooting game in my opinion while the first game despite it's small flaws felt like a proper Sci-Fi game.

I always just assumed the thermal clips would be super rare or high in price to find so if you want to continuously shoot then you can BUT when you run out or toggle them off you'd revert back to cool down. Hell even give us the option on what to use, if you are a soldier class then sure thermal clips would benefit you more but a Vanguard or Biotic would be better with cool downs so they can switch between them and their abilities.

EDKICK1623d ago

I don't think anyone should touch the original trilogy honestly. It's not even fully that I don't trust Bioware anymore, I did like DA:I and Andromeda way more than most. Even if Bioware were to somehow, defy EA and their recent track record and make ME4 one of the best ME games ever I don't know how I feel about forcing a return to Shepard's story nearly a decade later.

For all it's faults, it's disaster of a development cycle and it's unqualified/understaffed team Andromeda did a lot right. It's certainly not so lost that a Bioware back on their game a bit and a reasonable development couldn't turn it around. It's biggest issue honestly would be peoples ignorance and unwillingness to give another Mass Effect Andromeda a chance, I mean they didn't even give the first a chance, the hate train was gone the second the facial animations blew up.

Don't get me wrong in a perfect world getting another game with Shepard or his timeline would be incredible but I think a remaster and another shot at Andromeda is the most realistic way to take the series, if we ever get a real ME game again.

The_Sage1623d ago

I think they could make ME 4. My thinking was it could start at the end of 3 with the crew pulling Shepard out of the light that was coming from the Reaper saying that he was indoctrinated. The whole ending after that would have been in his mind. The battle on earth would be the beginning.

Bioware should make a Dragon Age game that will not be a "live service" horse crap.

Mass Effect 4 and The Challenges of Canonicity in Choice-Based Games

Game Rant Writes "Canonicity can be a tricky nut to crack in franchises with continuing narratives, and that's something Mass Effect 4 will need to contend with."

wow gamerant forgot mass effect 4 came out years ago number 6 and 7 were cancelled.

The new mass effect which can be called number 5 will not have any of your choices why you might ask?

Well dragon age keep were your choices from number one can been seen in number 3 got unplugged from number one and number 2 is finicky.

Dragon age on pc requires a mod to get past the server login and non of your choices get uploaded to the keep even the dlc no longer works sense it needs a server check.

On xbox i teseted this only though local saves i was able to transfer choices from one to too but 0 of one dlc would work.

So if the more popular dragon age series is in this state why would they care about your mass effect choices?

Oh and that remaster that was tossed out still has day one issues and number 3 is still hard to play on pc do to lighting issues and ram limits imposed from 2014.

My expectations for the next bioware 2.0 titles is very low.

They should redo the main trilogy

just_looken368d ago (Edited 368d ago )

They should redo the dragon age trilogy for sure on pc DA1 the ui is messed up sense it was for 4080p/720i days back in 2005. Getting to run is also very hard

The only way to play dragon age one is via xbox one backwards compatable state.

The ps3 version of dragon age one is pre throphy/ in game xmb so it has the freezing/crashing issues or just will not run.

Well i am not American so please enlighten me on usa education before your country invades mine and forces us into your society

GhostScholar367d ago (Edited 367d ago )

@ just_looken

Did I mention education? Never said America did have negative points. I know for all you “enlightened” people you think everything is either all good or all bad, but in reality that’s not how life works. We have a government that traded a known terrorist for a basketball player who moonlights as a drug dealer. We aren’t perfect by a long shot. If you want to go political though how about your leader leaving his own country when the truck driver strike happened?

porkChop368d ago

Dragon Age is not more popular than Mass Effect.

shinoff2183367d ago

Yea I read that and was like I've heard way more people talk mass effect compared to dragon age. Personally I'm more into mass effect. It's got the whole dope ass sci fi thing going on while dragon age has the same old medieval thing

gold_drake367d ago

andromeda is a spin off tjo and not considerd a numvered title. as it has to 99% nothing to do with the trilogy.

i think they need to make the destroy perfect ending canon.
we need more of shepard. haha.

Sega Saturn made it but not the 360. Don't remember Saturn having a horrid rrod rate. Absolutely horrid

RetroCaptainSteve470d ago

The launch games were all right, but look at how Virtua Fighter and Daytona USA compared to their re-releases.

Mass Effect 4 Can Explore Post-Apocalyptic Themes

Game Rant Writes "Mass Effect 4 will likely treat Mass Effect 3’s Destroy ending as canon, and this gives it an opportunity to explore a post-apocalyptic galaxy."

Destroy is the best choice. Bring the relays back over the course of a new trilogy, maybe right at the end of the first game. Say it was Cerberus, Salarians or a bunch of keepers that created a relay.
