I like how this UPF is basically everyone trying to get Brad laid.

Not surprised you guys didn't like the Issac price- it has the base game (20 bucks), and the two paid DLCs (20 bucks), all in one. While that doesn't seem so bad when you buy the game for 20 bucks, spend hundreds of hours in it, then buy the dlcs to add onto it, having it be 40 up front seems pretty steep. Combine that with Nicalis's shit past, and I doubt I'm gonna grab that unless I get it for free.

Brad seems unfocused, and the camera seems to be unfocused.

Ha, see what I did there? See what I did there?

All this shitting on Andromeda is bumming me out. I really enjoyed playing it, I agree with the criticisms with it but it didn't tarnish my enjoyment of it (helped I played on the less buggy PC version). But the extent of how far people are going to beat the game while it's down is really frustrating after all these weeks.

It shouldn't bum you out, nothing would progress if people didn't hold products and the people behind them accountable.

Don't take it personally, I've also enjoyed my time with the game but I've also enjoyed laughing at what a train wreck the whole thing is. It should have been something special but unfortunately it comes off as nothing more than a rushed sales product with about as much soul as a McDonalds Happy Meal.

For that injustice a few laughs at Mass Effect's sake is more than justified.

Man, with so many games out now it's weird that they spend so much time on the site lately playing a game they all loathe. Hope this is the last we see of Mass Effect

I think Rorie is becoming Drew slowly, maybe it is only me because I have just noticed it now.

But his posture while he is sitting down is really great. I wish my posture would be this good.

@rockinkemosabe: It's a bad Mass Effect game, you can't blame people being dissapointed. But it's a enjoyable game on it's own. I'm having a lot of fun with the combat. The PC version is definitely the way to go.

Brad seems like those steam reviews saying the game is shit and then you see they played it for 1000 hours. How can it be bad if they play so much?

Brads save showed 76 hours of play. That is more than ME 1 and ME3 combined. More than I spent on Dragon Age Inquisition and around as much as I spent on Witcher 3. You cannot play a game for 76 hours and claim it is shit. That is like eating a dozen big macs and then claim you hate big macs.

@ripelivejam: Yeah boohoo I guess? Some folks didn't like something you liked.

I'd personally be cool if there was a separate call in show or podcast but I've always liked GB's Unprofessional Friday's show and find the call ins kinda lame.

@dagas: I always hated that logic. It's Catch-22. I'm unqualified to say something's bad because I played it too much, but if I'd hardly played it at all then I'd still be unqualified to say it's bad, because I'd barely played it.

Who then is qualified to say a slapdash game is bad? People who play enough but not too much? Where's the logic in that? Who draws those lines?

Oof, that Rain World part. The look of it had me interest from the start, then I heard about the kinda punishing gameplay...and now that I actually saw Brad just wandering around kinda aimlessly, I think I'm not going to feel bad about giving the game a pass.

Good show, though! Needed my weekend dose of alien boning.

exactly, if his save showed 20 hours then people would be complaining HOW CAN YOU SAY IT WAS BAD YOU DIDNT EVEN DO SUCH AND SUCH OR BLAH BLAH ON THIS PLANET

But having done literally tons of the content and taken the time to mull it over, now he can't say anything too critical cuz obviously he's trying to be cool if does so.

What is the deal with the sex stuff in Mass Effect? It doesn't need to be in the game, it's just embarrassing and lame... it undermines the tone of what the game should have.... I hate Bioware, they suck.

Nice to see the call-in show not rear it's ugly head this end of the month. Hopefully they listened to user feedback and will replace it with something else that gets a more positive reaction.

Mass Effect Andromeda ending with awkward alien fucking is better than the entire Mass Effect Trilogy being ended with the words "Downloadable Content"

No Caption Provided

Also, Cat Mario show is also available in Europe. It was on the 3DS at least. I haven't had time to see if it's on Switch.

Lets compare shit glitches in mass effect to a horrible performing game while talking it up because we have obvious blinders on.
