It's a game. Labels beyond that should be tools to describe and discuss it not rules to trap it in.

It's a toy, not a game. The game is in what you do with it.

No matter what it is, I will play it like a roleplaying game.

If it forces shooter mechanics on me (none of the first 3 did), I will not play it.

That scene was the biggest F*** You I have ever seen a developer give their fans.

Which scene?

Third person shooter,hopefully without the boring shards of DAI.

 

                                                                                                <<<<<<<<<<()>>>>>>>>>>

LOL!

I and many others from the PC community were very critical of DA:I and Bio.... boring fetch quests among them. I'm sure Bio Mtl will avoid those mistakes. Exploring the Cluster to find a new Human Home World is an opportunity to discover resources, tech, making Allies, fighting off competitors without the need for "Elf Root" quests. I also don't expect to be inside the Mako more than 15% of the total game hours. otherwise, that would become boring.

 

What I'm saying is that you don't need to Mako explore a world to deem it suitable for colonization. So, as long as there is meaningful purpose to the exploration, the game will not suffer for it.

Hm, never saw anything wrong with it. The speech Shepard gives is kind of cool.

I'm hoping for an RPG. By that, I mean something that gives me enough control over the character and her behavior to fully know her thoughts, feelings, motives, values, priorities, etc., and doesn't force her to behave in a way that is contrary to them.

I'd also like it if the female character is not required to be hyper feminized ala the walk / run animations used in DA. I can't form enough of a connection with such a character to want to play them for very long.

I'm hoping to be able to create much of the story via emergent narrative, and not be tied to a linear storyline parceled out in small doses ala ME2 & ME3.

As for combat, I'm hoping they'll continue to support power players and pause-to-aim as they did in the trilogy.

It'll be interesting to see what they're cooking up.

I don't really care too much about a lot of things, so long as I have a protagonist that has fun options and can affect the story in a meaningful way, and the power and gun gameplay is entertaining. I don't give a vorcha's ass about inventory systems and the like. I wouldn't mind sticking with the way ME3 did it. I don't need some giant invisible backpack full of crap to swap on the fly.

I hope it's not ONLY a shooter, like ME 2 was. It's cool to go on missions craving with action, but what about the story? What about getting involved with politics, religion, different cultures and new technologies? What about getting to experience a REAL scifi story? Scifi is not centered in action, violence and futuristic settings. It's mainly revolutionising paradigms and extrapolating the future of society based on the scientific discoveries and social evolutionary tendencies. That is to say, it's a very personal and humane branch of fiction, even though it comes in a technological and most times dystopic and violent package.

Don't look at it rationally. You need to approach the topic from the perspective of someone who was really emotionally wounded by ME3, and desperate to get away from the final choice because it was too morally compromised, too unheroic, too whatever. So he gets the thing he really, really wanted... and it leads to disaster.

One need not have been emotionally wounded by the **** show that was ME3's ending to understand that it was morally reprehensible Alan. 

 

In any case, I'm expecting Andromeda to move more in the direction of third person shooter, though expect that the game will retain a strong narrative and a smattering of RPG elements.

I think we may have different images of what charismatic looks like. Lol. It's all good though...

I agree; it was exactly the sort of speech Shepard would give in that situation.

From Mac Walters:

"We're playing around with a bunch of different physics for the Mako," Gamble said. "The thing that we have to do is make sure it's as responsive as possible. We've learned a thing or two over the years. In terms of customization, it's been something that we've been looking at for sure, because we feel as though if you're going to be spending a lot of time in vehicles in places, they should reflect you as a player".

 

From Colin Campbell:

"I take care of how we create levels for "Mass Effect Andromeda,'" Campbell said. "If you're making a big RPG, like we're making, they are big moving beasts so you need a team that is capable of taken vision from high up and populating it out to a game that in a lot of cases devs won't see the parts of it. "You need to have a really good team that has really good communication, I might tell a level designer that we need to make a level where we're feeling like we are entrenched, pushing people back from all angles, we want that kind of feeling."

 

Is customizing the Mako just putting decals on the outside?

Is Campbell's big RPG an old fashion one?

The ME games don't need to try and subscribe to any of these labels.  Just be an ME game.

Can't say I was emotionally wounded by refuse (didn't even know about it until I came on here). On the other hand, just given the scope of what the EC was meant to achieve, it does seem like a waste of zots to put that much cut-scene power into a fake-out ending. I never saw Bioware implementing a conventional victory, but I can't say I'd believe they actually thought Refuse would make anyone happy.

Pff, what do I care what drawer people put it in? If it's the right blend I'll be happy.

Ahh... but what is the right blend? Sounds like you like a "tomato" and I like a "tomaeto".

Probably.

Maybe it should be left open if possible. So the player can decide. I bought ME1 in the bargain bin, a month later ME2 got released and I went to buy it. I was for the story then. Same for ME3, but that changed when I hit the MP button. It changed the way I played the game.

 

The only thing which is likely universally appreciated is core combat gameplay mechanic on the one hand and narration / voice acting on the other. The latter is a core quality of Bioware, but they threw in the combat gameplay heavily in ME3. I expect people come now for different reasons. It's a bit like "TBS" gone "RTS" and we see that also with DAI.

I don't like the sound of "as responsive as possible". What makes something fun to drive is its limitations.

I liked the Mako partly because of how helpless it was when it left the ground. So driving over bumps became something that required thought and planning. Body roll became really useful for inducing rotation.
