Andromeda was a good game after they fixed all the bugs. All they have to do is launch it in a playable state, which is nearly impossible for modern devs
I played it, and what sticks in my mind isn’t bugs, but poor writing and uninteresting gameplay. I think it’s middling at best and a terrible entry in the series.
I thought the gameplay was improved. I mean the actually mechanics. Clearing whatever the underground chambers were was a slog. The majority of the enemies were rather uninteresting too.
The story was pretty weak but it had some interesting side stuff. It could have been far better especially with the arks.
Huh…I guess I agree with middling. I had more fun replaying the trilogy.
I agree! I think I got a free copy somewhere, years after release, and really enjoyed it. Sure, I wish the characters had been a lil’ more fleshed out, but I had fun with it. I have to assume that the bulk of the negative reaction to it had to do with bugs and/or missing content on launch, that had been fixed by the time I got around to it.
I often have this experience, since the only game I recall buying on or before launch in the last decade is BG3.
