At this point, Mass Effect Andromeda really better live up to all the incessant hyping that’s been going on for it by Bioware. After hyping the game’s E3 appearance up for so long, and the game then failing to show up at E3 beyond another concept trailer (at least this one was ‘in engine’ though), I’m a bit skeptical of Bioware’s claims for the title.
Given that a big issue with the original trilogy was how samey the gameplay and missions often got, this sounds extremely exciting to me- it sounds like Bioware are addressing one of the biggest weaknesses of the original game. Now if only they could actually show the game so that I could begin to buy into its hype again…
Mass Effect Andromeda will launch on PS4, Xbox One, and PC by next March.
