There is absolutely nothing stopping them from making a prequel. ESPECIALLY because its not called Mass Effect 4

Hahaha
To be fair I've had to contact them multiple times in the past and had mostly positive experiences.
I don't see why the door is closed for another sequel.
"Oh there was another ship, this one had only humans on it so the new galaxy will actually feel like a new fucking galaxy"
...
"Also humans have evolved to have less facial muscles but different facial muscles so fucking deal with it"

They should make a bounty hunter in space game or like what Jeff & Brad mentioned many times over, a detective game on the Citadel.
This is kinda amazing.
like prey 2?
man the new prey is giving me vibes of the xcom fps that never saw the light of day, I always wanted it even though I was more than full with EU and XCOM 2
they need to come back to that idea

Nah, I actually think the premise for andromeda is super interesting, it's just that somehow they managed to make it the most uninteresting thing in the world.

You will surely get the karkland.
Imagine how great and topical a game about a mass refugee crisis and the collapse of traditional political institutions could have been in 2017.

I'd like to see a Mass Effect game during the first contact with the mass relays and the early stuff with other races like the war with the Turians, I think that would be cool.

Hey duders curious curious here. Will leaving the switch on the dock kill it's battery eventually? I mean it provides the console a charge so will it over charge it like phones? Should I not leave it docked over night?

Night in the woods is kinda that on a minor scale?

This is what kills me. The idea of frontiers and colonization and first contact and cultural assimilation are such ripe topics for good, thoughtful sci-fi stories... but instead they wuss out and make it so you're fighting a Big Ugly Bad Alien who's chasing Yet Another Precursor Race, and don't worry about the politics of the Andromeda initiative because there are only two new races in this whole galaxy anyway and one of them is clearly evil so whatever

tbh they should probably just nuke Andromeda as well and try again in a third galaxy
maybe they'll figure it out then

The franchise is likely dead. EA isn't green lighting another 5 year project after this mess.

Somehow the best sci fi story of the year for games is going to nier automata.

Why would that be a surprise?

Make a First Contact War game. Make a Garrus as a C-SEC Office game. Make a short story collection game. There are so many good things you can do in the Milky Way part of Mass Effect's universe while still being very disconnected from Shepard's adventure. Christ, Andromeda just has me so bummed. I keep playing it and keep getting more and more checked out.

Not a surprise I guess, it's just that you'd usually expect western devs to hold it down on the sci fi front.
The only immediate great japanese sci fi franchise I can think of other than nier is... SMT?

Ill prolly keep it off if thats an option. Wanna go super hard mode.
Danny was on TBs podcast too! Follow the money!
If you visit the Steam Workshop you'll realize that X-COM 2 is practically a Mass Effect game at this point, LOL.

Ok we are going to have to fight about that. For eternity.
Actually now that I think about it any mecha game is sci fi but I don't really count them for some reason.

I kind of wish I hadn't played this in regular 2D. It seems so well suited for VR. Some of the environments would be amazing in a headset.
Are triple double crunchwraps good?
:O, time to dust off the Vive?

I was just thinking of how I'd like a Bounty Hunter in space game. Wasn't the original Prey 2 concept sorta like that?
