I've been waiting for early access to get opinions, but it's mostly mixed. I'm wondering if I should preorder it or just wait till it actually comes out?
From me I have had the game pre ordered for months. Al give a general review break down of the 10 hours I got to play.
Story: As you know it starts 600 years after leaving the Milky way in between ME2 and ME3. In the Andromeda system. Were the Andromeda Initiative Created by Jien Garson an eccentric human billionaire. To find a new home from the reapers invasion. To me this is pretty nice side route away from the MEU we know. From what I have seen it certainly going to be interesting.
Game play: From what I have played there is plenty, from the amount going on from the start and what you can interact with e.g. from talking to the crew on the Hyperion/Nexus/Tempest. Even what you can view. Even the planets in the Heleus Cluster some nice bits of info along with scanning for anomalies. Even with being on EOS. Even the nomad looks amazing and feels great, I love the changing from the 4wd to 6wd. Fighting in the game is fluid and fun. Weapons are pretty neat. Not be able to create anything right now but I can say I am excited to be able to make weps. The armor system looks good and feels alright. The dialog wheel with the change from paragon/renegade system. I like the wheel never had an issue from the DAI game with it. Also I was not really a fan of paragon/renegade but I did always enjoy being a douche. So far am not sure how its going to turn out with out it in the game. But that is not going to stop me from giving the game its chance. One thing I will say that needs to be improved is the character Creator there was some detail there. But not as much as I hoped there would be. I did get a character out that I was happy with Link even my in game sis Link. But with more control put into it and a lot more options. Am sure it would be much better. I wont knock it off fully but it certainly has room for improvement on that.
Graphics: Well from what we know on the system specs that was issued out a while back rec spec's are Intel Core i7-4790 or AMD FX-8350, 16 GB RAM, NVIDIA GTX 1060 3GB, AMD RX 480 4GB, DX11, Win 7 64 above and the HD space of 55GB. Well my rig is 1 year n 7 months old and she handled the game cranked up full and ran at a steady pace of 60fps. No issues with graphics or animations in my view. No game breaking bugs or anything that really broke my immersion. To me the game looks amazing.
Music: Oh man another awesome set. Listening in game and out of game has me excited even right now I am listening to the soundtrack. Click Link to listen to it.
Controls: Controls for me were fine. I used the old tried and tested method of Mouse and Keyboard. No issue got right off the bat. I do not know about the game pad wise as personally I find using a game pad for games like this hard. But its up to your pref.
Replay Value: At this point can not say as it is just the beginning for the game. But speculating on how Bioware has done their games. I am defo hoping for replay value.
Overall: As I did say I have only played the first 10 hours and forgot to point out I did not touch the MP side. The story of the game certainly has me interested. Does it fit in with what we know from the Original Trilogy. I say yeah, why because why not. You will most likely have some group thinking about a back up plan and they did. Some folk might pick at it, but I say let it have its chance. Right regards to everything else. No bugs or glitches that broke the game or my immersion for me. But that is not to what you might be like. Graphics amazing running at a steady 60fps for me. Game play amazing great fighting fast n fluid. Detail certainly is great in my view. Replay value cant say but hoping there will be. There is one thing I did point out it was the character creator needs improvement even though I was happy with what I made, I certainly would have liked more control. So in my current state just now as an Early review. 9.5 paws out of 10. For now from what I have seen.
@Askmeanything So you want to know if you want to pre order it. It is up to yourself. We can only give you our point of view. I personally would not tell some one to go get a game if I did not like it. I pre ordered because I was excited for another game in the MEU. I paid the £3.99 for Origin Access and had a shift swap because am crazy excited for this game. Which is not usually what am like. I wont compare this game to other games/companies. Because that is just being petting and nit picking in my view. My recommendation on what I have seen played watched and read. I say pre order it get set for release and dive right on in there. A new Galaxy awaits. New worlds stories romances. Meet new aliens make friends then blow them away hehe. So it is up to you may friend.
