dude... you are gonna get bashed by hardcore Bioware cults no doubt. I have the same crap as yours and started a "Save the Milkyway thread" months ago... guess what? Bioware trashed my thread and migrated the "who needs the milkyway thread" here

 

I just find it funny because this basically amounts to...

 

"Hey I liked the old trilogy..I'm gonna miss the setting."

 

"**** you and die, hater! "

 

 

 

Both people are fans... yet one is eating the other alive.

Could I offer you some alternatives? many are available on Steam like Deus Ex Mankind Divided. I'm saving up for a budget PC right now that can run most new games better than a PS4 or Xbone

 

Yeah... that's not how it works. It's because of my unyielding hate for the ending, a product of how much it wrecked the entire series for me, that I want a soft reboot of ME and why I'm happy with ME:A.

You do realize that people can just disagree with you without them being bashing or Bioware cultists, right? Although I do love the kind of tone I see in many posts like, not necessarily here, where the words Biodrones are used because people are so blinded by the fanatical loyalty that they cannot see the obvious truth pushed by the poster which allows no other viewpoints.

Ugh!This thread again.  If you're posting on the forums for a game more than a year before its release, then either:

-You haven't actually lost 99% of your interest in the game, or

-Your prior interest level was bordering on pathological obsession.

 

Either way, you, and the other dozens of player who will post threads like this, will buy ME:A.  I guarantee it.  Obsessive gamers have been threatening not to buy upcoming games in a series since time immemorial.  It is always a lie.

The Andromeda location shift works for me. It's all a fictional made up universe anyway.

Now we get to explore another part of the made up universe with a host of new problems... or a host of old problems with a name change more likely. but still point remains. And they keep the old choices intact. they're just out there... way out there... somewhere. Never to be spoken of again until we find a time machine anyway.

looks like we even get a whole new space station that's totally not Citadel or Babylon 5 of even Tarok Nor.

He's only got a little over 100 posts... and I've never seen him (not that I know everyone lol). I don't think he's necessarily obsessive. Sometimes people just vent and go away.

Being set in another galaxy didn't stop Stargate Atlantis from being just as good of a show (if not sometimes better) than SG-1.

 

(Which is why Stargate Universe suffered, since they were constantly moving between galaxies, interesting antagonists and worlds kept being left in the rear-view mirror)

 

Stargate Universe suffered because the 'love triangle' was painful to watch. I was happy with new antagonists and world constantly, that was the nature of the show.

Ha! How many post do you think the average Mass Effect player has on these forums?  it's almost certainly less than 1.  He... will... buy... ME:A.  I guarantee it.  All threats to the contrary are BS.

You might be right, but he just seems to be coming out of lurking just to speak his mind.

 

Not everyone who isn't excited about a game secretly likes the game. I just talked about DAI in another thread, for example, but I guarantee I won't play another DA game. It's just over for me (but I don't hate it either... I still wish Bioware well).

Well... I mainly post before game releases, otherwise I am busy playing them, or have decided that the game isn't worth my time.

The reason I have not posted anything through DA:I is twofold: DA2 sucked (and I spent the upcoming months DEFENDING its design decisions up to release on these forums!) and DA:I didn't want to run on my old computer, for some reason. I now have a new one, but I havent started it yet... Too busy playing Wasteland II and Shadowrun: Dragonfall at the moment.

Seriously, not finding a way around the ending of ME3 so we have to ditch all the things we love, all the characters we love and the unexplored 97% of the galaxy sucks.

 

I am simply not interested in starting the world building from scratch because the ending of ME3 was a bad mistake...

 

I highly doubt that the next Mass Effect being set in Andromeda instead of the Milky Way was a result of the reception of ME3. In fact, they almost definitely had the new setting planned before they even released ME3 - setting is one of the earliest design concepts.

 

I personally don't mind the idea of exploring a new galaxy, but I understand your criticism. I am simply pointing out that it really isn't due to the ending of ME3 - in fact, I daresay it was completely irrelevant to Bioware's decision to move galaxies. The story leak and subsequent ending revision of ME3 just before release supports this - regardless of the ending, they were planning on changing the setting.

Yeah, totally. Reapers were around for billions of years, during which time they repeatedly wiped out all organic life in the galaxy that met a technology threshold, and they never had the tech to go outside the Milky Way. So in MEA, discarding the "humans are special" tradition, we now have a human protagonist who managed a galactic jump...

 

I thought the Reapers were simply doing what they were originally programmed to by the Leviathan. Perhaps leaving the Milky Way galaxy was never part of their programming? At this point, I am going to wait to see what happens in MEA before I decide whether or not the game was good. However, I do hope that there is a feasible explanation as to how/why the Milky Way was left behind.

Guys. This is my first post in here. I am a big Mass Effect fan. (My english is weak. Tryin my best here.)
My favorite game was the first Mass Effect. And now they are making something similar? With Mako and new planets?

How did you grow to love the first Mass Effect if you don't like a new galaxy where to explore? :) I am quite curious about how they travelled to the Andromeda though...

I think we need to get creative with our theories. We're too conventional about the travel. Wormholes? Ark ship? Boring.

 

No, we find a huge stasis cube that freezes everyone in time and space, and eventually - and through sheer fluke we just wake up when the Andromeda Galaxy moves in to where the Milky Way used to find itself.

We didn't find Andromeda. Andromeda found us.

The previous Pages' comments on Mac's focus on humanity makes me wonder how I see things differently. Not that I don't agree that he focused a lot on humanity, but I don't think the situation was good in this regards in ME. And I'm not referring to the last part of the game, With the Alliance that saved the day and all the various Council endings.
Humanity might be the underdog At the start of the game, but think about their status. Politically, They reached a position in Citadel space that it generally takes far, far longer to achieve. The Council considered twice the possibility of a human Spectre, when only the three leasing species had those. Humanity managed to fight the Turians, the strongest military in the galaxy, in the First Contact War, and rapidly create strong fleets and army, becoming one of the strongest species in the galaxy. They co-developed with the Turians an advanced ship with features nobody have, and said ship is part of the Alliance fleet. All of this in a short periord of time, expecially compared to the other species.
So while Mac definitely the attention on humanity, it's not like ME did a good job, in my opinion, as humans were already in a kind of special situation.

I think this is pretty on point considering the Reapers only ever mention harvesting the Milky Way and then went to Dark Space to recharge...hibernate...whatever. Which if they were attempting to harvest ALL organic life they would either continually go from galaxy to galaxy doing just that and unless the universe is a lot smaller than I thought than they would either keep on a-going until they either met something they couldn't handle or had successfully harvested all life in the universe which is presumably impossible. So my guess is that they were focused on the Milky Way galaxy because their programming knew that it just wasn't feasible to try and harvest every galaxy's life forms so they stuck to MW.

That's because the BioWare drones are completely convinced BioWare can do no wrong and that critique levied agains them is blasphemous. I would know, I used to be one of them.

They're Not the only one Though. I saw people that hated the endings insulting people that miss/don't want to leave the MW.

Eh I wanted to stay in the Milky Way to but Andromeda wasn't exactly a well kept secret.  I've accepted it and I am looking forward to it.  Just glad to have Mass Effect take the spot light again.  DA had it's glory with DAI but it is time for Mass Effect to remind everyone around here who is top dog.

What complete and utter poppycock. No one has ever said that Bioware are above criticism, far from it. But people can be open minded, praise what is seemingly praise worthy and voice their concerns where they see a potential problem. Then you have people that are worried about how ME 3 was unsatisfactory for them, but are waiting to see how Andromeda will play out. And lastly, you have those that spat their dummies out over ME 3, said that they were done with Bioware, still here complaining and trying to dismiss Andromeda based on their own speculation that often contradicts what little we actually know of the game thus far.

They're likely the same people who thinks it is physically impossible for BioWare to retcon their own sh!tty endings out of existence.
