Good story, detailed combat, and an interesting universe. It does like to pause and load mid driving around a planet and god help you if you die while a cut-scene or a transition occurs, because then you'll be ending the game process and re-launching, no handling for those situations.

Although the graphics are cool, the text is soooo small as to be barely readable. Numerous complaints have been made to the authors to enlarge the text and, or make a sliding scale for text size, nothing has been done about it. Sadly I cannot even play the game without standing in front of my TV with my reading glasses on. I played all 3 mass effects and they are some of my favorite games, but this one, for me, is unplayable without an update to fix the font sizes. I'm 73 with okay vision, but wear glasses, so if you want other opinions, do a search for Mass Effect Andromeda text too small. People say it's okay on the computer, but on big screen TVs is where the trouble shows up. I hope they fix it. Have a great day

Mass Effect: Andromeda Developer: BioWare Publisher: EA (Electronic Arts) Rated M for Strong Violence. Blood, Strong Language (including taking the Lord’s name in vain), Nudity, Sexual Content (including same sex scenes left up to the player’s style) and Thematic Elements. Five years in development, millions of dollars spent and utilizing the power of the FROSTBITE Engine, one would expect a polished game with great graphics and stellar storytelling that we have come to expect from BioWare. However, upon playing the game for a while I am left with asking myself a question what many people are asking. “What happened?” GRAPHICS: The images in this game range from absolutely awe-inspiring to outright hideously. One cannot help but notice that the background scenery, as well as the planetary vistas, are great, but by the same token the characters in this game, especially the females, are just plain unattractive. The main female character of Ryder, as well as other females, just do not look right. Their expressions are dead, their eyes look as if they are staring into space. The animations are stiff and the lip syncing are all wrong. This issue isn’t that bad on the male characters, but it is noticeably bad on the attractiveness of the female form. I do not know what statement BioWare was trying make, (if that was the case), but they failed in that area. Additionally, the game is buggy as hell. Characters drop through the floor, guns are held backward, hands are rendered looking as if the wrist was flat, plant life blends in as if growing out of the characters. I also noticed that some of the Non-Playable Characters (NPC) are identical to the other as if they had cut and paste faces onto some of the NPC. SOUND: The voice acting can use some help. Some of the characters are awesome, yet some of the others sound as if they are just going through the motion. While the musical score is good yet some of the sounds are wrong. The jets pack sounds like a barking dog in an echo chamber. Some of the weapons are great and some of them sound hollow. Mainly, the sound is just there. WRITING: Some of the writing is really bad yet the story is compelling and engaging. Some of the character lines are laughable while others are intelligent. All in all this game is inconsistent and unless you can get a good deal on it, or until BioWare fixes these glaring issues, this game is not work the full price. One would think BioWare would learn from the Mass Effect 3 debacle but from the looks of things I do not think they learned anything.Read full review

I bought this to complete the Mass Effect Game play through. It is really good for the time. It is not the best Mass Effect game, but it is good to complete the story.

Great game! great amount of weapons and armor to craft and obtain. Side quests are engaging and fun. They make you keep playing the game even after beating the main story line.
