Letterbox List of Science Fiction to watch while you wait for ME:A
letterboxd.com/meganon/list/meg-watch-while-we-wait/

Previous thread:

quarians eternally BTFO. how can they ever recover?

The Geth literally did nothing wrong.

Quick!
Post your favorite waifu or husbando!

Liara best waifu.
Femshep bestshep.

>finally try Infiltrator
>cloak headshot cloak headshot cloak headshot cloak headshot
How boring

Objectively best waifu coming through.

>talicancers being this low energy

no wonder they kicked them out for the krogan.

Try going AR Infiltrator if you don't like sniping and cloak. I did that sometimes. Or maybe shotgun Infiltrator.

What's your bonus power?

We don't need to, we are the (relatively) silent majority of /meg/. Multiple surveys in past threads proved that.

But out of curiousity what's "high energy" waifuposting and how does it differ from low energy? Acting autistic?

Can you guys just relax? Maybe settle down with a nice cup of tea and some cookies?

>the silent majority of /meg/ is literal cancer
what's your point exactly?

It really is in this context. You would have to be an idiot to think civilized people who just traveled a billion lightyears could fall into tribalism and savagery in a few months. That much regression in that short of a period would make the niggers in South Africa blush.

no you are the extremely loud and obnoxious minority. thats why the name talicancer exists.

it's fun if sniping is a thing you like because ME3 has good headshot kill feedback, but you have alternatives.

Shotgun Infiltrators are face maulers.

Shut the fuck up, Turians are the worst race with their constant and resonant hostility.

I bet she poisoned the cookies with dextro materials as well

>look mom I posted the bad fanart again

What's the catch here? Will she want me to give her a kiss and admit she's the cutest femtur in return?

Good work, OP.

>Liara best waifu.
Absolutely.
>Femshep bestshep.
Fuck off.

Exactly the opposite you dinocunt.

no, she wants to penetrate your soft boipucci with her metallic extensions.

Planetary hazards affecting your character more would've been cool. Weapons heating up faster or slower, extremes of temperature or radiation affecting your shields, and so on.
Snow and duststorms affecting you accuracy rating would've been nice, too.

No one wanted the krogan back. No one wanted those fucking rapists.

Yep, the usual but this time you have to praise her baking as well

Speaking unironically, yeah, so am I, same with the waifuwars ("my waifu's great", "no your waifu's shit here's a pic of Kai leng killing her", "no my waifu's great and you're waifu's shit" for a hundred posts) and blind negativity really. But I'll go with the flow as long as it's the status quo.

still better than having the quarians with you.

Kallo Jath is cute and I want to hug him

Still, a tiny amount is required for security, if they go out of line, they could be dealt with

As much as I don't like that smug femtur, HTQ was based and you need to go

Would have been pointless though.
>going to an ice world. now i have to change my loadout. again...
>going to a lava world. now i have to change my loadout. again...

>he can't handle loadout changes
aaaaw, poor babby

>Still, a tiny amount is required for security, if they go out of line, they could be dealt with
Or they could just have Turians on security, since they're also very strong but aren't dindus that chimp out all the time.

RENEGADE or PARAGON?

Will Manveer let us smack women in Andromeda?

Renegade is and always has been a meme alignment.

90% of the time Paragon vs Renegade is really act like a normal human being and professional officer vs chimp out and be a raging retard for no reason.

But much, much shorter lifespan, at least they aren't genophage cured.

>tribalism and savagery
More like "fuck you guys, I'm going to be a Mad Max reject on my own planet."

>a gameplay "feature" that equates to nothing more than slowing down your experience is worthwhile
Hey, why don't we also add a required eating portion to the game? Every 5 hours Ryder has to stop to eat. And shit a few times a day. And shower everyday. And brush his teeth twice a day. Sounds fun!

I'd choose something other than a shitty morality system.

Okay turbofaggots, tumblrwhales and /pol/tards of this thread.

What are the good aspects from Andromeda and what do you think will hold back the game? you need to say why.

there is no renegade or paragn system in Andromeda.

sounds like good ideas

Why is a crazy long lifespan a prerequisite for security? That makes no sense.
Because the world of Mad Max happened in a very brief time, right? That's why the original movie and Fury Road look exactly the same, huh?

There will be no Paragade system in MEA, they got rid of this shit.

>He picked Anderson over Udina

Fucking lol

It's not a matter of handling it, it's that it's ultimately annoying busywork for not much gain.

It's like how you teleport in and out of the Nomad now. Because they had a detailed entry/exit animation but found it was fucking annoying to watch the 20th time, so they axed it.

>90% of the time Paragon vs Renegade is really act like a normal human being and professional officer vs chimp out and be a raging retard for no reason.

he doesnt know when to choose renegade or paragon
best expierience is 70% renegade and 30% paragon.

...

Will I still get to pick renegade-type dialogue options/actions?

There's no binary system. You just do what is appropriate in the situation now.

Well, by the time you are a stable colony, they'll be dead.

Also, Turians are much less stronger as well, you should know it, you fucking rapefic writing autist

>Will Manveer let us smack women in Andromeda?
He's a Muslim. Smacking women is his favorite sport. He only has a problem with white men hitting women.

>Good

Combat looks it might be fun. I like what they did with the powers and weapons. Lots of variety and mods; also, small thing, I like that ammo powers are consumables.

Environments look nice.

Half the characters will probably be decent.

Exploring will probably be fun, I actually liked the ME1 Mako worlds and it looks like they're drastically improving from there.

>Hold Back

I hate the premise. It's a lazy way to reboot the series. Should've just canonized the best endings of ME3 (most character survive, cured genophage with Wrex alive, quarian-geth peace, high EMS Destroy) and made more games in the Milky Way.

story's probably not going to be any good if DAI and the pre-release materials are any indication.

animations and character models seem pretty lousy.

the combat seems to seriously lack weight; not sure how to describe it, I guess it's a combination of sound design, animations, and in-game physics. Killing things doesn't look satisfying.

Overall 6/10 so far, will buy after 2-3 month 70% price drop.

Then you're a worthless nigger who can't even act like a normal human being.

Consider suicide.

>What are the good aspects from Andromeda
no quarians
>why
literal cancer race

>and what do you think will hold back the game?
being made by Bioware/EA

>Well, by the time you are a stable colony, they'll be dead.
The fuck are you talking about? Turians live for about 150 years and nothing is stopping them from breeding, ya fucking retard.
>Also, Turians are much less stronger as well, you should know it, you fucking rapefic writing autist
That's some extremely random retardation.

Yes the world of Mad Max happened in 5 minutes user.

Dialogue choices have tone now. So you can be reasonable, be an asshole, be sarcastic, etc.

The alignment now I think means certain characters will like/dislike you depending on how your actions match their personality

>I hate the premise. It's a lazy way to reboot the series. Should've just canonized the best endings of ME3 (most character survive, cured genophage with Wrex alive, quarian-geth peace, high EMS Destroy) and made more games in the Milky Way.

Nah, that'd been too controversial with what endings would be canon. Best solution would be doing a prequel, and make it about human diplomacy and fucking up batarians

>t. usual Liarafag

So easy to spot the normies who like the boring ass blue pile of dogshit.

t.beta cuck

>Because the world of Mad Max happened in a very brief time, right? That's why the original movie and Fury Road look exactly the same, huh?
Isn't the difference less than 2 years?

>That's some extremely random retardation.
You very well know in a fight between and Turian and any Krogan, the Krogan would take it any time

>Nah, that'd been too controversial with what endings would be canon

I don't see why. This is standard for RPGs.

Heck, even ME itself canonized a few things both directly (Shepard has to survive the ending of ME2) and indirectly (comics and novels have Udina being Councilor and Garrus/Tali both surviving to the Battle of London).

>You very well know in a fight between and Turian and any Krogan, the Krogan would take it any time
I was referring to the rapefic shit, ya autist. And the Turians already beat the Krogan with science.

Comics aren't worth the paper they are printed on and I really just want a ME game where it's calm and not about rebuilding

The entire premise of the Mass Effect series was that your choices mattered and carried forward. Stop being willfully obtuse.

>The entire premise of the Mass Effect series was that your choices mattered

ME3 threw that away anyway.

Also choices were a really big deal in the Fallout games. Didn't stop them from canonizing endings.

In any case I very much doubt most people would have a problem with canonizing the golden endings. That infographic Bioware posted for ME3 showed that 90%+ of people who played previous games got endings like geth-quarian peace and the genophage cure anyway, and every survey I've seen that asks players which final ending they pick has Destroy take more votes than all the other options combined.

I'm an ashleyfag, sorry to break your bubble

You can fug him

I have to be honest, just because of this I stopped playing ME2 first 15 minutes in.

I told Garrus to fucking play with in the rule of law in his mission and what does he do when I die? Become space batman! How much fucking effort would it take to recruit him back from C-SEC? How much fucking effort would've that took, for fucks sake

We don't know that for sure.

>paragon babbies
when will they learn

92% of players cured the Genophage, but only 36% achieved Quarian-Geth peace.

Because you literally can't achieve peace without an imported save from ME2, and less than 40% of players imported a save.

(most people killed the Quarians)

Can we hate newspapers now?

I went almost went Renegade/Paragon 50/50 but that fucking stupid space raptor needed to learn that life isn't a 70s cop show

>space batman
fucks sake why are people this retarded? Batman doesn't kill, the Punisher does.

>92% of players are retarded
I believe it

>ashleyfag

Even worse, a fucking travesti lover. Go back to there is a sissy thread for you.

>ME3 threw that away anyway.
In what way?
>Also choices were a really big deal in the Fallout games.
Fucking what?
>In any case I very much doubt most people would have a problem with canonizing the golden endings.
Are you new or just autistic? Gamers are the whiniest, most obnoxious fucks around and BioWare fans are some of the worst of the worst.
>How much fucking effort would it take to recruit him back from C-SEC? How much fucking effort would've that took, for fucks sake
How much effort would it take to add 2 completely different missions and what would essentially be a different character to accommodate one minor choice from the previous game? Gee, I wonder...

Can you read?

>90%+ of people who played previous games

That infographic indicated that 39.8% of players imported a previous save. 36% got quarian-geth peace. Since you need to import a save to get quarian-geth peace, that means 90%+ of 'fans'
(the ones who'd care about canonized endings) got that outcome.

Similar thing with a cured genophage with Wrex alive. He was alive in 36% of games. But he can only be kept alive in imported games. Meaning, 90%+ of players cured the genophage with Wrex in charge.

Finally, by extension, these two choices together result in too much EMS for this 90%+ not to have gotten a high EMS ending.

The only questionable data point is the prominence of the Destroy ending.

>talicancer being this mad
stop hijacking the thread

Zack Snyder disagrees.

You gotta say, if choices like that mattered, people would be replaying the games more to unlock all the content and see how the story could go.

wat

>Hijacking a shithole filled with Biodrones and shitposters

Are all the Ashleyfags this fucking braindead? jesus christ.

He also made Superman a murderer. Superman doesn't kill. Not my Batman, not my Superman, Snyder is a hack.

>That infographic indicated that 39.8% of players imported a previous save

It's actually likely to be a bit less than that, since you can also unlock the save importing achievement by finishing the game twice.

So the importers who saved both is likely even closer to 100%

Drack best husbando for Sarah

>Big Krogan dick to pleasure her with
>Very old, has a lot of experience
>Very powerful, can fuck up anybody who messes with her.

Am I just doing Molyneux tier ramblings here? I just wish the choices mattered more

it's literally your fault

Best squadmate to bring on the Citadel Casino party hijack ?

Whoever your LI is for RP reasons.

Either Wrex or surprisingly enough Kaidan if you want to hear funny dialogue.

Can you give reasons why the bulbous rabbit is a worse option?

>implying the video game main hero(ine) needs defending
I'm pretty sure unless it's a cutscene, the Ryders can solo the entire Nexus.

I want to play with Ayrea's mandibles!

I'm hesitating between Tali (for LI) or Javik (for bantz) for this exact reason.

Muscle rabbit would definitely be a lot less likely to kill her accidentally in the process. Though he looks pretty large too so who knows.

Jaal is better for a homosexual Scott than a straight Sarah.

Jesus. How do I maintain my split personalities among the various women I want to fuck?

but if you have a white male as your protag you can't have any love interest

How would we ever know that? We know nothing about him.

>Jesus. How do I maintain my split personalities among the various women I want to fuck?

If only it could be like Alpha Protocol

If only we could just get another Alpha Protocol

So is it possible the tech they use to travel to Andromeda is from reverse engineering the mass relays and taking out the bits where you can't aim them at planets and such?
