I don't like the main character, he looks dull, and WTF is this tatoo on his face ?
I really hope this isn't the real face model for the game.
You must realize this is seriously early footage of the game. It's going to look a hell of a lot different when it is complete!

That's not the default main: the guy with the tattoo's an NPC. You get a - relatively muddy - look at the player squad right after he collapses, as they move in on the krogan from the other direction. There's the PC, another krogan, and a human with blonde hair, as the earlier leaks suggested.
Besides, I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they still hadn't settled on the default mains - hopefully both genders'll get a Sheploo equivalent this time - now, today, less than a year before release. There's absolutely no chance they'd finalised that sort of thing back in 2014, when the video was made.

Yes I know and I hope it will be different, like the early footage of ME1.

Could be that this is not our character. The 3-member squad that arrives could have our character in the middle. Maybe we're just there to rescue tattoo guy.
Anyway, yeah, a lot will still happen or has already happened, but this video... I like it!

The 3-man squad arrived with Red Armor Krogan a bit before the pollen scene.
Considering Andromeda is a whole new places and seeing the pollen thingy, I'm wondering if we might not have more stuff like the Thorian (plants not necessarily sentient ones though) affecting the plots...instead of machines like in the Shepard's Trilogy.

I would really like to see that in Andromeda actually. A spaceborne organic species, like fungoid aliens or a plant based species would be pretty cool.
At the very least, we could expect some original story lines out of such aliens as opposed to another Pinocchio-bot for a synthetic race.

I want that, some kind of Crystalline Entity expy, and basically all the other weird living space **** that's shown up on Star Trek over the years.

Space whales!
Although, that might fit better in a scifi version of Dishonored.
Speaking of different life forms.

The question is, are we talking, like, whales-in-space space whales - like Tin-Man in that TNG episode - or the kind that just talk to probes from outer space?

I'm basically saying that they should just dump the whole Andromeda thing and remake Star Trek IV in the Mass Effect-verse.

(AussieOn) You call that a Crystalline Entity? This is a Crystalline Entity! (/AussieOff)
(I'm just messin': SG-1 had some of the best weird alien whimwham. It's second only to TNG so far as my favourite sci-fi TV shows go.)
I'm only on episode 3 of TNG. I've already saw all of TOS and the movies with Kirk, Spock, etc.
Trust me when I say it gets much, much better. Like, exponentially better. TNG is genuinely my favourite TV show, ever, but even I think the majority of the first two seasons are utter garbage.
These days, when I rewatch it, I watch one episode from those two seasons - Season 2's 'Measure of a Man', which is up there with the very best of Star Trek - and then just start from Season 3, Episode 1. It's mostly smooth sailing from then on, with a disproportionate amount of - what I consider to be - the best sci-fi television ever filmed packed into the next five seasons.
Eh, I liked Deep Space Nine personally.
It was refreshing to see a Star Trek show that actually knocked the Federation off it's pedestal, and showed humanity in a not so great light from time to time.

I enjoyed Deep Space 9, but Star Trek's idealism is a pretty massive part of why I love it so much, and it's not like there's an over-abundance of optimistic science fiction on television these days. I actually can't think of, well, any.
For me, a return to TNG's idealism would be the refreshing thing, since it's been so long since properly optimistic sci-fi was last done well. The closest television's gotten to that sort of thing since TNG is probably Stargate: SG-1/Atlantis, and it's been quite a while since even that was on the air.
I'm hoping Bryan Fuller's show delivers, though my irrational - or, well, perfectly rational from my perspective; not so much from a more reasonable one - hatred for the reboot-verse, and the potential for it to be set there, has me worried.
Regardless, going all the way back to DS9: I actually thought the series did a decent enough job of showing the value of the Federation's idealism even as it challenged it in ways it hadn't been before, so I still like it. It's probably my second favourite Star Trek series, since I've never been a massive TOS guy. I might still prefer Babylon 5, though.
Pre-alpha footage that was shot in 2014 is hardly evidence of what the game currently looks like in 2016. While it's nice to see some gameplay of MEA, take this entirely with a grain of salt. Games change A LOT, especially when they are only in early stages of development. The visuals have been overhauled significantly since then. BioWare is going to keep trying to push the graphical limits as far as they can until MEA ships in early 2017.

I'm talking about real Space Whales.
but I don't want a Leviathans redux.
That's no reason to not be curious now. Uncalled for dickery.
Those are obviously swedish lifeforms.Speaking of different life forms.

Dickery is judging something you know nothing about. Something you usually do as well. Smh.
Oh, good one. No, it's just being an ass and you were just being an ass.
It's not the current build, supposedly that video was from late 2014.
Ah, well, there you go. Figured that it wasn't current build. Nice to have confirmation.
Something about this felt Mass Effect 1ish, I dunno what. Maybe it's the Krogan or the fact that the human dude looked rather thin. Later Mass Effect games bulked up the armor while Mass Effect 1 had a sorta sleek feel.
I'd kinda wish it retains that feeling but I doubt that's happening.
