    [​IMG]TechRaptor's Robert Grosso with some quick thoughts on Mass Effect: Andromeda:

    Quick Thoughts - Mass Effect: Andromeda
    Mass Effect: Andromeda has been out for a week, and our preview of the game's first ten hours was not positive. The game has gotten a mixed reception overall, but outside of the well-documented issues of bugs and facial animations, there is no real consensus as to the underlying issues Mass Effect: Andromeda has.

    It's a shame too, as the game itself is still quite good, despite it's own shortcomings. Andromeda feels like a direct sequel in terms of gameplay to the very first Mass Effect, but suffers from the baggage of being a Mass Effect game. It is a legacy that Andromeda struggles to live up to.

    It is not all bad for the game though. There is good combat and quest writing here, strong characterizations engulfed in a more lighthearted tone, and the multiplayer is still a top notch aspect that everyone should try. Ultimately though, the biggest problem Mass Effect: Andromeda faces is that it plays it safe with its material. Mass Effect: Andromeda will always have baggage of its name, and perhaps that does more damage to it than what was anticipated.
