I hope all the Asari and Quarians die en route
I mean, we saw that we at least get one. Though frankly I don't care about what happens to any of the different races TBH. Humans could be the only ones that come through though that's not going to happen.

You want to get rid of 2 of the most fleshed out races?
Although to be honest, I still don't get why the Council couldn't give them a planet to settle in.

Hey! Just wondering... can you give us a little insight on romance in the game? Please?

You remember that plant they scanned in the video? You can romance it.

Well given that there was plenty of actual nudity in Dragon Age: Inquisition (which people surprisingly didn't get upset about) you can probably assume the space-romance stuff is going to be ramped up to 11 for Andromeda.

the meltdowns? i'm not sure i follow
By actual nudity, I assume boobs and butts like Witcher 3? I don't except to see more than this though. I really hope we don't get to see alien boobs though(other than Asaris, because they're just blue humans after all).

Yeah, still tamer than The Witcher 3 but it was there.

None of the previous games showed nipples and I don't expect Andromeda to be any more risque than that. Plus, why would they need to show anything when you know the fan art will have all that covered and more? lol

Can't even get the name of the Asari, so don't expect much details about this.

I don't think there's any doubt on who's making the OT. It's shinobi.

Heh, I'm actually not this time.
I was signed up to do it back in 2014, but after I took a self-ban hiatus from GAF that year and returned a few months later, someone else had jumped in and claimed it. Sucks but I'll be collaborating with him on it too

Mass Effect: Andromeda |OT| Let's call it what it is: alien sex
Hmmmm
I dig it, but first OT titles should be a little more... serious. Jokey OT titles are for OT2+

I wish they didn't place so much visual emphasis on that.

I will never forgive Bioware for the Tali is secretly a sexy space elf betrayal.
The Asari are just awful in general.
Need to be purged from the universe so we can be left with cool aliens like the Elcor taking centre stage.
DevilDog

Haha. Someone make the pain stop.
I think they did a good job setting up every race in ME1 and the asari got really fleshed out in ME3, especially in the scene with Javik at the Thessia Temple. It was great witnessing the fall of a religion.
And the Elchor always struck me as some kind of a joke race they had to do due to budget cuts. It came out well though I gotta say, but I wouldn't want them on center stage.
I would want them on this stage though:
insincere endorsement

The biggest crime was that we didn't get to see the Elcor warriors with shoulder-mounted cannons that they talked about in ME3.
I would want them on this stage though:
Yeah after Hamlet I'd watch a Game of Thrones : Elcor Edition.

I think sexing aliens is a good reason to explore space and I'm glad it's part of game. I think it allows us to expand our definitions and parameters of sex. Like Asari sex,which is more mental than physical but with same "release". That's sci-fi folks. Even if it's taboo topic in some ways.
Human sex in this series is a tad boring.

I usually avoid romances and check 'em out on YT after finishing the game to see how cheesy they are.
That's an easy retcon waiting to be made though.

What difficulty you playing on? I don't remember hating the add-on.
Hardcore. And I don't hate all of it, just time trials. The other challenges are fine.

Currently polling second in Australia's federal election (first in the Gold Coast), this feral may one day be your Bogan King.
It is a great crime that I will not get to do the OT, but I'll always have my N7 day arts.
Do the other species have arcs?
There are multiple arks.

Which could mean they're species-specific, or just that the effort involved multiple ships, and each ship was mixed-race.
Gah I wanna know moooooooore

I'm probably going to buy Mass Effect on xbox, just so I have it to replay on Scorpio.
But, I'm going to regret not getting to play the prettier Pro version first.

I'll probably buy and play it twice.
That makes me hope they are mixed race and you get to discover those arks.
Not like the ME2 start where you wake up in a space station (?) and it blows up right away.

I'm honestly expecting the Andromeda fleet to break up, sending you on a quest to reconnect different colonies with varying outlooks.

I would say that almost none of the boss fights were particularly good, at least the ones that ended the games weren't. Robo-Saren was a bit of a strange one, and the human Reaper was just a bit daft. Mass Effect 3 didn't have one as such and that was probably all the better.
Best boss fight in the trilogy was probably Tela Vasir.
None of them were difficult either. One random Krogan Battlemaster (Therum) was a tougher fight than any of the bosses over the whole trilogy.

Can't really think of any good boss fights from the series tbh. They all were repetitive or just not fun to begin with.
The closest thing that's occurring to me is taking down that
and that's more because of the spectacle than the gameplay aspect of it tbh.

What's wrong with fighting reaper saren? I always have a bit of good fun with that fight, espcially when you use biotics like lift and singularity and just see him floating around while you take shotgun shots.
More importantly I'm not sure why boss battles are even a concern, I hate how people put so much of an emphasis on them.

There's nothing particularly special about that fight one way or another. It's not about anything "wrong" with it as much as it wasn't a particularly interesting or challenging fight. Part of that lies in the shit combat of the game to be fair.
