...I am one of the rare souls that loves Andromeda. 😅 I literally play it more than the trilogy. its less depression inducing and the combat is actually fun.
Also i really hope they're not going to make me kill Solas. It took me a long time to warm up to him and I would prefer to not kill my friend. =( even if he is a jerk. he's like our jerk.
I actually did too - but I had to detach it from the original trilogy - which is why I think it got such negative reviews and why I'm eyerolling at all the negative ones here. Andromeda was a fun game. I'd say a solid 6-7/10. It was not original trilogy good where that was a 10/10 masterpiece, but Andromeda was fun. I'm more mad they left so many cliffhangers.
For me personally I liked the story in 1-3 because it was so depressing, it made the relationships stronger, and the ending was all the better. It left me with that bittersweet "it's over, now what?" feeling at the end of the playthrough. Andromeda for me was fine, it wasn't great, but everyone was so damn happy! There was no conflict to get behind, that was my only real issue, just that the characters weren't as relatable.
Which is why DA4 I want to keep separate. I'm not comparing it to previous games, it's its own game. I'm going to judge it on it's own merits. Did I have fun playing it? Did it continue the story well? It'll probably be different from the past games, but that's okay. If I don't like it I'll judge it on why I didn't like it, not just because it's different.
