Mass Effect Andromeda: Shitstorm Edition - RIP Biowear

[Sinner's Sandwich]

Why Bioware??

Why???????

Oh, man that last video.

You know how sometimes when a movie totally flops the studio will, out of sheer desperation, try to remarket it as a comedy? (They did this with Exorcist II.) Maybe BioWare can do the same thing here. I have to say, there's a lot of potential in Mass Effect: Spaceballs.

My face is tired?

THAT'S WHAT WE'RE GOING WITH?

REALLY?

This really completes the circle of putting out shitty launches of cliche games, seriously, Resident Evil 7 Biohazard is the only good mainstream sequel (refresh) released as of right now.

I'm having fun with BoTW tbh.

Jimmy Neutron's CG is less stiff than Mass Effect Andromeda's animation.

 

[Roast Chicken]

Second Life has better facial animations than this game.

 

[Foltest]

You can't fucking win bioware.

 

[Honeybunny]

You can't fucking win bioware.

How quaint of them to continue instigating the idea that having short hair means you're a lesbian

Quite progressive, I must say

The evil hetriarchy strikes again!

 

[Hodor]

This is a bigger trainwreck than I could've imagined. It's fucking beautiful.

The only positivist thing about this game is that the sheer amount of mockery, shoops, and parody videos has made /v/ worth reading unironically for the first time in years.

 

[Mola Ram]

Funeral parlors have better facial animations than this game.

 

[Todesfurcht]

Witcher 3 has better emotions and graphics, and it's been out for 2 years.

Watch me swooce right in!

Machinima commented, and one of its commentators is comparing this game to No Man's Sky.

This seems to be a relatively in-depth look at some of the animation issues in the game. Some of the people seem to be a bit deluded about the quality of Bioware's hiring practices though.

Look at Silent Hill 2 and 3, released in 2001 and 2003 respectively, the characters' animation, the writting eveything is better.
14 years later Bioware can't be assed to at least make something as good.
It tells a lot about the videogame industry.

I think I just figured it out.

• Inability to make proper eye contact.
• Strange, out of place facial expressions
• Stilted, unnatural conversations.
• Bizarre gait whilst walking.

Turns out, 600+ years in cryo-stasis gives people autism! thats the big plot twist.

The first two hosts are optimistic about it, but the guy comes in and compares it to 'No Man's Sky'. As a rebuttal:

1) It should not take a game 10+ hours to hook you. Even an RPG. Witcher 3 hooked me from 10 minutes in. If I'm not engaged I will stop playing after an hour or two, let alone 10. Writing quality also tends not to get better either or it becomes incredibly uneven, which is still bad.

2) There is no getting used to bad facial animations and bad animations in general. Its just like bad voice acting or bad dubbing, it is continually present and distracting.

3) You can't get past the fact that the character customization options are fucking terrible, which is pretty much unforgivable in an RPG with character creation. Its a massive step back from ME 2 and ME 3. Not to mention every female character seems to be beaten with an ugly stick and the character creator seems designed to keep women ugly.
