There are roughly 200-400 billion stars in the Milky Way. Most of those planets are believed to have stars -- let's go with 200 billion stars, and one planet for each star. In the observable universe, there are estimated to be over 170 billion galaxies.
200,000,000,000 x 170,000,000,000 = 34,000,000,000,000,000,000,000. That's 34 sextillion. 3.4 x 10^22. That's a lot of stars and thus, planets, and it's a very conservative estimate; it could go as high as one septillion.
What does all of this mean? There are at least 34 sextillion planets out there to choose from. Life is pretty much a given, but it's more than that. Somewhere out there, in the great yawning void of the observable universe, evolution almost certainly converged with ours. It produced a humanoid species of warriors and poets, sinners and saints, thinkers and dreamers. By our standards, they are exotic -- but to some, recognizably beautiful.
Among these dreamers, there is someone. Every night, as her sun dives below the horizon and foreign constellations fill the sky, she gazes upward and yearns. She is alone.
And you will never meet her.

Man, there may be no Claymore Infiltrator equivalent (at least, not yet...) in Andromeda but post patch a Grenade-Shotgun focused Human Infiltrator can put a serious hurt on things.
It almost feels weird to be back to running routes to hit ammo boxes for refills again.
Joshua Myers
>checked out ClaraBabylegs' MFC stream
It just makes me feel weird. The same reason popular female streams makes me feel weird. The overly-attached and friendly audience, or something. I don't know. Also cat sounds with her mouth.
Anyway, I'm going to bed. Goodnight, MEG. Dream of cute waifus.

Fermi Paradox is beautiful, isn't it?

There is also a version where everyone has their perfect waifu forever
Tomorrow NPD Group releases its report for April, which tracks sales. It will tell us how MEA did in that month relative to other games, and then finally list the top ten best-selling games of 2017 so far at the end. As of the March report, MEA was #5, just below RE7 and a couple spaces above HZD.
Predictions on where it will be once April is considered?
Brandon Harris
During Q4, analysts expect that MEA sold "at least 2,5M copies". So, I dunno man.
Jaxon Miller
Where'd you get that quote from?
Justin Hernandez
>re-playing MEA with interstellar ost >music player gives perfect timings by itself
>"Based upon industry sell-through data, we believe that EA sold-in at least 2.5 million units of Mass Effect: Andromeda, a March 21 release, for incremental revenue of $110 million, offsetting the new releases a year ago," Wedbush Securities analyst Michael Pachter wrote in an investor note.
Brayden Diaz
Interesting stuff.
Jose Taylor
So with the power buffs, is the human engineer still resigned to a support role or can you build him/her as a more offensive unit now?
Blake Kelly
I can't believe, Avenged Sevenfold made a good album.
Jack Howard
I know this feeling >Made me some food >browsing youtube while eating >watch an Andromeda video >start going through recommended >find one on how to make good ryder faces >oh maybe there are some good tips >17 fucking minutes >Camwhore going on about herself and how she felt about how her character looked >its just her making a few faces that look just as bad as most while talking over it Unbearable, how can people watch this kind of content?
Caleb Reed
I play her fairly offensive. The turret is a lot more useful now since you can redeploy it at will and it's damage is non-trivial, and your powers while not having the greatest synergy for combos do work together pretty effectively.
Jaxson Roberts
God damn it I just want to get your loyalty mission out of the way stop trying to embrace internally anyone who shows you the slightest bit of attention.
Charles Diaz
"at least 2.5 million" would be consistent with NPD saying it's better selling than HZD as of March 31. HZD sold 2.6 million copies in its first two weeks, two and a half weeks before March 31. Meanwhile it's also rated below RE7 on NPD's chart for the year, and RE7 sold 3.5 million copies by then.
Meaning, if the sales NPD tracks (North American physical) are proportionate to all sales (all regions and including digital), MEA would have sold between 2.6 and 3.5 million copies from March 21 to March 31 (end of fourth quarter).
Aaron Davis
Peebee is a SLUT
Jonathan Martinez
Question: are they just counting net sales for Q4 with that $110 million number? Because EA's Q4 report notes that MEA had another $53 million in net sales from its premium edition which were now going to be captured in Q1 instead.
Josiah Lee
Peebee is cool as heck
Adam Evans
>going to be captured in Q1 instead. I read it as sales that EA expected to have in Q4, but happened in april, since MEA was released almost in the last week of FY2017 Q4.
Jaxon Thomas
fuck off mac
Dylan Fisher
SOMEBODY
Henry Thompson
The wording seems pointlessly confusing in that case. Why would they note that in a report for Q4? Especially in a context that makes it sound positive?
>Net sales were $1.09 billion, above our guidance of $1.075 billion, and 18% higher than last year. This excludes about $53 million of net sales relating to premium editions of Mass Effect Andromeda that we had originally expected to be captured in Q4. They will now be captured in Q1. Digital delivered $885 million of the $1.09 billion in net sales, up from $712 million last year.
Ian Ramirez
I guess they want to make it sound better to the investors as "see, we are still doing crazy money with this game, the Q4 data is missing at least another 50M on sales"
Grayson Nguyen
>be EA >see dogshit sales >put mass effect on ice instead of attempting to make a sequel with actual effort put into it Why are we (((fans))) of a game where the devs just fucking hate us. >won't live long enough to see sequel
Matthew Bell
I heard somebody say the armor sets don't change appearance past rank V. True?
Connor Harris
yep
Hudson Evans
The game actually underperformed, in the worst case scenario, by 500k copies. I wouldn't call that as dogshit sales, but who knows what EA executives are thinking.
Connor Cruz

Jack Clark
It'll be okay, user. We'll see it all someday.
Levi Miller
>implying number 3 will ever happen
William Smith
There's always fanfic, right?
Christopher Martinez
>fanfic
Cooper Robinson
I imagine EA execs think anything below 100% of their predicted sales to be dogshit.
Hunter Walker
Some of it is actually good, to be fair.
Hudson Clark
Yeah, I just hope they deliver at least some DLC to complete some of the story
Nolan Hernandez
Who would right a fanfic about Gil and Ryder's kid being taken, kidnapped maybe Hmm that sounds like a decent idea or about Cora going mtf
Luis Wood

Dominic Flores
then we suck some jaal dick
Hunter Brooks
But user, Jaal would be a terrible slaveowner. He'd be the type who falls for you and spoils you rotten in exchange for sexual favors.
Hunter Edwards
Mass Effect being placed on hold is one of the saddest things I've heard, especially since this series is one of my favorite game franchises.
Lincoln Jackson
>not cuddle some aliens
So close yet so far.
Thomas Long
A new ME game not being released until 2021 was pretty much a foregone conclusion before Andromeda even came out. This one took 4 years according to Flynn at a time where Bioware was not hammering out a new IP in addition to their usual stuff, like they are now.

Both at once is too lewd, you have to pick.
Jonathan Brown
So why didn't we play as Alec in this game? He's far cooler than Cuck Man/Woman.
And why doesn't Habitat 7 play into the story at all, besides the thirty minute intro?
Jason Williams

I liked Ryder siblings. A grasp of fresh air in the neverending cycle of playing as badass, cool, all-mighty heroes.
Zachary Hill

Samuel King
I heard you can get N7 armor in Andromeda. Is it the ME1 version, 2's or 3's? Or does it have a new design?
Bentley Jenkins
Is there some contact where they can't flat out say so what's happening with the patches?
Anthony Bell
I do too, and like their whole arc of becoming a hero. However, sometimes they're beta bitches. I hate that.
It's 3's, and its stats make it good for Biotic casters.
Andrew Morris
Give 'em 10 more years and they'll start to beat people instead of talking to them.
Robert Lopez
Might be covered by an NDA. They probably don't want any news of upcoming patches getting out until they figure out exactly what they want to do.
Owen Jackson
I actually like how lighthearted this game was. It was fun
However I do agree with >However, sometimes they're beta bitches. I hate that.
Ayden Green
everyone that are hired by AAA studios sign NDAs about the games they are working on, so yes
Ryder White
>It's 3's
Eh, good enough. I was hoping it might be 1's design since it's always been my favorite version of the armor but 3's is alright.
Blake Sullivan
Ashley wasn't wrong when she talked about the Bear and Dog analogy.
We'd be lucky to be a scrappy second tier race, assuming we don't get ourselves annihilated before getting to that point.
Hell, we'd probably be the Batarians.
Levi Garcia
...
Brody Morris
What's the point if there's no Paragon/Renegade system so you can become a giant dickhead to everyone?
1's is better, it is more true to the artistic source of Mass Effect. 2/3's is a bit too detailed and tacticool. Still like it though.
