The subtitle is pretty informative, though - we now know the game takes place in Andromeda. That implies a totally different story and setting to anything we saw in Shepard's trilogy. New characters, new races, new conflicts and a completely fresh slate for Montreal to create something totally new. That's huge news.

 

The galaxy map had dozens of places to travel to, which matches up to rumours of lots of planets

 

We saw the enemy faction, and that some worlds have animals and wildlife. 

 

Combat probably has special abilities, and we saw the N7 soldier use a jetpack-jump.

 

That's a lot more than "nothing", and people are already discussing that stuff here. 

 

Not to mention the blog post that talks about quite a lot of stuff, actually, considering this is only the first stage of marketing.

Could you walk me through that? It sounds like you're worse off after the trailer than before it. What did last week's Iakus have that this week's doesn't?

Belief that Ark Theory was as real as IT

Quick question...

 

Didn't people here call the Andromeda subtitle a looong time ago?

It was heavily suspected since last E3's video.

The subtitle? No.

The shift in setting? Yes, ever since they looked at the galaxy map during that E3 teaser and noticed the similarities.

The subtitle? No.

Was discussed many times, last example. Most were doubting it as 'too obvious' but I guess marketing team thought it would work the best

-Okay

-Only a very general release date, subject to change

- Looks like a sci-fi shooter to me

-in blink-and-you-miss-it shots

-which two?

-Ooh!  A gun!

-Okay I'll give you the Mako

-Targets to shoot at

 

How about story?  this is supposed to be a narrative-rich RPG as well, isn't it?  

 

For starters, how the frak did humans get to Andromeda to begin with?  What are we doing there?  What sort of crisis are we facing?  When does this take place?  

 

And finally, how the frak did humans get to Andromeda to begin with?

 

- People have been pining for a title for so long. Now BW delivers and it's just "okay"?

- Oh come on. "Holiday 2016" is quite specific, it means November to December 2016. And they never said "subject to change" AFAIK. And if they did, how would that differ from other games, where even to-the-day specific dates are being moved mere weeks before release?

- Oh come on Reloaded. You'd have preferred some wireframes instead of an approximation of the graphics of the final game?

- So? Why shouldn't the teaser serve some tidbits in a kinda hidden way?

- The super-jump and the ME3-Multiplayer-Turian-Omniblade-thingy

- Sure, it's quite inconsequential, but it's an appropriate refutation of the "they showed us nothing" claim

- And the Mako counts twice at least  ;)

- Oh come on Revolutions. You'd rather see no enemies at all?

 

And for the rest of the questions: do you really want to know all of that beforehand? Don't you want to experience that in the game itself? If not, I have a solution for you: go visit the Wikipedia page of ME:A in early 2018 (by then it will have come out for sure) and read up on the plot. That saves you a lot of time and money. You're welcome!

If they stick with the wide variety color palette of ME3 I'll be very happy.

Ah, right. Schroedinger's MENext. Until we open the box and see that what's inside is ME:A , the game is still several different kinds of ME, some of which you'd like better.

You're welcome!

-I'm not "people"   I was fine just calling it MENext.    Sadly, this name "Andromeda" only reminds me that we're in another galaxy.  And why.

- "Holiday 2016" spans a couple of months.  And is subject to change.  DAI got a last minute six week delay.  Wake me when there's a hard date.

-I'd have liked something that speaks to the narrative, the storytelling, etc.  I'm not impressed by showing off combat.

- I don't want to have to treat a trailer like it's the Zapruder film to get details.  If you want to coax me into buying something, be direct.  Especially if it's something I'm already disinclined to trust.

- Oh.  Eh.

-They showed a gun that's already been in two games.  Yay?

-Fine, the Mako was cool

- Like I said, combat alone doesn't impress me.  I look for narrative rich rpgs.  If I'm looking fro a narrative-rich rpg, what's to keep me from walking right by without a second glance?

 

As for the rest:  Yes, very much.  Especially after ME3.  I want to know what lessons were learned from it.  I want to know I won't get jerked around again.  I want to know intergalactic travel won't get handwaved away like the Lazarus Project and the Crucible.  I didn't used to be this cynical, and it's a sad thing that it has come to this (and I had to do it with DAI as well) But Bioware has burned me too many times in recent years to blindly trust again.

Hey, you should at least be a little grateful for Ark Theory being true. This makes it unlikely that Bio's going to do anything that would rule MEHEM out. You'd be a lot worse off if Bio had gone with my idea.

AFAIK, wormholes or a special type of Relay haven't been ruled out yet.

Mhm. We have absolutely no idea when this narrative takes place, aside from long after the events of ME3, or the how and why behind the journey to Andromeda.

Hooray!  Our problems are solved with MORE SPACE MAGIC!

 

Intergalactic travel, brother to Resurrection tech, first cousin to "organic energy"  WHo created this wonderous technology?  You wouldn't know them, and there is no time to explain!

 

/sarcasm

 

Edit:  In case it isn't obvious, I'm not exactly grateful for a nonsense ending being swept away by yet more nonsense.  It defeats the purpose of addressing what p*ssed me off to begin with.

It's a science-FICTION series.

Also, you don't even know how we got to Andromeda so stop complaining that it's space magic.

It's SCIENCE-fiction.  

 

And I'm pretty sure the answer to how we get to Andromeda will make as much sense as the Lazarus Project:  something something helmet-brain-intact-resources.

Well, I'll reserve judgement on the ME:A technobabble until I hear it. The earlier games set a fairly low bar here, so it'll have to be pretty egregious to bother me.

And technically, aren't they avoiding what p*ssed you off, instead of addressing it? Again, lucky you, since if Bio had addressed it, my bet is that they would have doubled down.

Someone's not happy ME:Next (Andromeda) isn't what they wanted it to be....

Just wait until we get more info. Right now you're complaining about something you know nothing about and it's pointless.
