    The last game I had buyer’s remorse for was Mass Effect Andromeda. It just didn’t feel like a Mass Effect game.

      Andromeda felt like a new Star Trek series to me. At first, it’s all weird but they’re saying familiar things. As time goes on, I grew to accept it for what it was and had a good time. But it absolutely wasn’t no goddamn Shepard shooter.

      I love them both like they’re separate children of mine.

        I think MEA’s problem was mostly that it billed itself as a mass effect game. It feels to me to be more dragon age in space. If it had gone its own way instead of trying to tie itself to the main trilogy, it might have been better received.

      I tried to get into it after completing the OG trilogy again but I just couldn’t. It looked a little familiar but just felt too different.

      I might give it another go, see if it’ll work better standing on its own.
