    "Without Denuvo" 

    If you do not cheat, you have no need to worry about anti cheat programs, but since you are a self-admitted cheat, my statement is not for you.

    A creative person is motivated by the desire to achieve, not the desire to beat others.

    On this one issue, he's actually kind of right. Denuvo actually has been known to hinder game performance and cause lag. 

    That said, Denuvo has never effected my decision to purchase a game. For most people, it's a non issue. And given his extreme campaign against Game Guard, I'm inclined to assume that he is a cheater.

    EA - 'We destroy Worlds!'

    The lesson of not releasing half-assed  games appears to be something they cannot perceive.  Always better to lay the blame somewhere else.   

    If you are holding out for the perfect game, the only game you play will be the waiting one.

    Like I've said before, anyone who doesn't think ME:A was a total failure (big enough of a failure to effectively kill the franchise) really needs to get off their white horse, take off the matching armour and get a proper perspective on how much the people responsible for the game really and truly shit the bed. And by "the people responsible" I mean the developers, because almost all of the blame lies with them. Hopefully, this means we won't be seeing inexperienced, hipster developers with an agenda put in charge of a popular IP anytime soon.

    RIP Bioware.

    ME: A Just had too much wrong with it. It suffered from the same problems DA: I did. They sacrificed too much meaningful story and content, in favor of pretty open worlds. I thought DA: I had some boring and mind numbing side quest. ME: A just takes it too far though. Worse of all is the story, the very foundation of the game.

    There is no way around it the story is just bad. Very cliche, with a side of bad pacing, and a dash of too much foreshadowing. A supporting cast that is very hit or miss. Outside of Vetra and Drak (and to a lesser extent Kallo). Each of your team is boring and has a personality that is about as dry as sand paper. I've probably put as many hours into the original ME games as I have Skyrim. ME: A, on other hand I bought what like 3 weeks after it launched, and I didn't finish my first play through till about a month ago. I had to struggle just to make it through the game once. With zero interest in playing it anymore. Because what few good parts it has, well I've seen them already in one play through, and they are far overshadowed by all the boring parts.

    It just pisses me off to no end to see Bioware pissing away two very good franchises like this. First Dragon Age, now Mass Effect. I use to be upset about there being no KOTOR 3 or Jade Empire 2, now I'm thanking God it didn't happen because we can all see where that would have gone.

    What's HILARIOUS about this whole thread.

    Many of you expected the same damn BIOWARE, when it had EA all over it.

    Bioware DIED the moment they were Acquired by EA!

    This much was pretty apparent if you looked hard enough. However after thinking about all the hints they dropped I've come to believe that Boo the Miniature Giant Space Hamster was actually Indoctrinated over the course of the series. Thus the Initiative is actually a Reaper plot.

    Mass Effect: Andromeda News - The BioWare blog has been updated with a brief, but heartbreaking, note to let fans of Mass Effect: Andromeda know that there "are no planned future patches for singl-player or in-game story content". Development will continue on multiplayer missions and in "upcoming comics and novels" that will include the story what happened to the Quarian ark.

    Great...Can I get my $80 back?

    I enjoyed the game and beat it rather thoroughly, the biggest issue was the amount of bugs and their severity in the first few months of release.  It's been a long time since a game breaking bug, such as Architects not dying, would stop my play sessions and that happened multiple times on ME:A.  I literally waited through months of patches until the game was fully playable but as stated I did enjoy the game all the way until the end.

    I'm glad these people mentioning the obvious political agendas of the game are being allowed to speak on the topic to a small degree though, when there was an article about adding new male on male romance options (for Jaal in particular) by @SBFord instead of actual DLC and getting a white house press like statement on how "players were asking for this" I posted about the obvious forced agendas in-game.  Sadly my post was removed without a word and I was giving a warning as if I said something hateful for posting about it from an analytical perspective.

    Again, please keep politics out of the thread. If your post was removed, you should have received communication from the moderation staff. If not, contact @mikeb to ask for further information.

    As for the Jaal article, it was part of the news of the game's development. No politics involved, just an item of interest for many folks.

    Voted with my dollars a while ago.  Haven't spent anything on these faux Bioware games since DA:O and ME2.   Don't give a ratsass about the political curfluffles,  just the quality level.  Which, from all reports, has been lacking.

    Well, people are spoken, because EA/Bioware puts that kind of politics in thier own game, so that kind of reaction from gamers are not unexpected.
