“I'll never forgive sweaty Mass Effect fanboys for killing further development of this game. Compared to the entirety of the ME trilogy (like many people were doing), yes this game is clearly weaker and "not as good."…”
“Buying this game for $4 in 2026 is sort of like picking up a hot & ready pizza when you're hungry. You know it's not the best pizza you're ever going to have, but it's here right now, it's cheap, and there is a lot of…”
“Fun if you dont see it as a mass effect game and just see it as a open world space game”

“This just aint it, even after it got patched its still just not a good Mass Effect game, it's got a mildly interesting story with little to no actual choices that matter. Most of the characters are boring and the few…”
“It's not as bad as it's made out to be. The Kett were underwhelming, sure but the Jardaan, Ankara and the Scourge were a cool addition and I'd love to see them expanded on more. The biggest issue is the repetitiveness…”

“I have watched several videos reviewing and I must admit i bought this with great reservations. I gave it time and well i can recommend it to anyone who is more a Space Affictionado and less expecting a Mass Effect…”
“(NO SPOILERS) I both recommend and don’t recommend Mass Effect: Andromeda. If you’re bored, want something cheap on sale, or just want to be back in the Mass Effect universe for a bit, then yeah I’d argue that it’s…”
“TLDR: It's Mid. Six hundred years of cryo-sleep just to wake up in a galaxy that looks like a Ubisoft executive’s fever dream. BioWare scraped the surface of Dragon Age Inquisition and decided the Andromeda galaxy…”

“This game gets an undeserved bad rep due to Trilogy fans carrying unrealistic expectations of Mass Effect 4. Shep's story is done. MEA's combat is amazing. Perhaps the best in the series, in fact. The changes made to…”
“Its not near as bad as people make it out to be... and its almost 10 years now without another me game... those douche bags killed it . but Its a good game. Not as good as the first 3. well. better then 2 as far a game…”
“The shooting is good and the weapon crafting has some steam once you unlock unique mods and stockpile enough resources to experiment with it. The quests and narrative are where the game drops the ball. The main story is…”

“Was a fine enough game, the characters are the highlight with funny banter between most. Met plenty of bugs, mostly small or fixed by a quick reload of a save. Got on sale for like $4 and it was well worth it. Don't…”
“Good game on its own. It is worth the price (on sale). However, the graphics looks so bad sometimes. The mission design is boring, repetitive. The story's pacing is confusing. The final mission came sooner than I…”

“This is a great game as long as you don't expect the same payoff as you did from ME3. If you compare this rather to ME1, then you will have a hell of a good time. If you have never played the other Mass Effect games, go…”

“I bought this game on a sale, and for what it is, it didn’t disappoint, but most of my time was honestly spent on the ship, and staring at different planets and the black hole on the galaxy map. The story is... It is a…”

“The game just boring :( Also the Healing mechanic in this game is different. Unlike the Trilogy where Shepard heals using Medigel, in this game you need to run and locate a nearby Healing Box to heal yourself XD *I hope…”
“Not as addictive and interesting as Mass Effect 3, I mean there's no urgency like in the story of ME 3, this is more relaxed and well, the dialogues and cut scenes they aren't that interesting. The characters are well…”
“The graphics & the gameplay are good , but the slow pacing, the performance, narrative & removal of paragon/renegade options etc... are the game's weakest points (even with mods installed). I've tried to like it & view…”

“No its not good. Characters are pretty bad, story isn't strong enough and the animation is really weird.”
“Is there some kind of competition to see who can create the most bland and uninteresting open world imaginable? Bioware and EA decided to give Ubi a run for their money.”
“I'm actually angry at the outright gall of whoever was in charge of this mess. I loved the original trilogy and bought this game purely because it had mass effect in the title. Absolutely everything that made the…”

“Story is ok, only worth if you have some interest on the Mass effect story. Aside that the game is very buggy going from freezing on cutscenes, loading screens, mid fight on any any ocasion.”
“This isn't a game, it's a crime EA and Neo-Bioware expect you to pay for and torture yourself with I encountered a hard lock 20 hours into my only playthrough on the first planet. Before that I was subject to the awful…”
“Saved game got corrupted middle of playthrough. Im not doing this again”

“When I first played Andromeda, I was taking on too much emotional investment and baggage from the original trilogy. That threw me off from the game, because there are quite a few differences between Andromeda and ME1-3. Not just in gameplay, but in style. The tone. The script.…”
— a player, Steam review · 71 hrs played“After 2 months my Mass Effect marathon concludes, the original trilogy was close to a masterpiece despite its issues (mostly ME1's issues VASTLY impacting the whole trilogy) - but finishing the trilogy made me want to try Andromeda DESPITE the negativity from way back when. And…”
— a player, Steam review · 35 hrs played“After having just played through the Mass Effect Legendary Edition Trilogy and then immedietly hopping to this game afterwards, I will say that this game is subpar in terms of characters and scripting. The only thing I enjoy about this game is the whole "let's colonize another…”
