I see your point, but on the other hand, what are they supposed to do, live in anonymity? Currently, people still expect quality from Bioware, not realizing its just a shell coasting on recognizable name. The people who made it great are gone.

[@Lord_IckisDickus]

that is true but it is in the unreal engine 5 so its not gonna be another mass effect andromeda, do to the engine being easy to use. not like EA forcing bioware to use an engine (frostbite) that theyre not familiar with and had to make the tools from scratch alot of the time, and the biggest thing was an engine not designed for a RPG 3rd person game. at the end of the day the frostbite engines is made for FPS/ multiplayer and single player linear stories, not RPGs and RPG worlds. it was doomed to fail ME andromeda, i did atlot of tism research on it.

I guess well find out how much it was the dialog and animations or the story and lore that people hated about Andromeda, since all the available materials for this game read like Andromeda design documents. Even the mysterious tech plague, the ancient builders with mega structures left behind, and the many hundred years journey colony ships arriving at planets that have been colonized in between when the ships launched and arrived lol. I actually liked Andromeda and thought it could have been great if they had given it the DLC it needed to fill in the major plot gaps they set up but never delivered on, so hopefully they will do it better this time around. It looks at least 2 years out, though, and we are very lacking on actual gameplay. This has the worrisome impression the game might be rushed out before it is ready, if they are doing these promotional videos a year before they should be in the dev cycle.
