Unfortunately, this is where I have to start getting harsh with ME:A. I feel like I need to stipulate that Mass Effect: Andromeda is by no means a bad game and not worth your time, it is absolutely worth it, but this isn’t the new Mass Effect that it could have been. ME:A feels like an exercise in missed opportunities; everything that is great about ME:A are things that almost every game can pull off and things that Bioware has pulled off in the past. The combat is solid and enjoyable, the world is large and interesting, and the game has an intriguing enough narrative. But for me, there was a general lack of evolution and nothing that felt “Yes, all of this all the time!” I am yet to have a moment that made me feel like the title was in anyway epic.
