3.5/5 ★ – Amandaj's review of Mass Effect: Andromeda.

This really isn’t a bad game! It probably shouldn’t have carried the Mass Effect name though. There are some connections to the trilogy, but I think this set the game up for failure. The ME trilogy is one of a kind. I thought the story, characters, and graphics/design were awesome! It has 3 big flaws however: 1) Still quite a few glitches, even though it released years ago. It’s still playable with them, it just takes you out of the story a bit. 2) The design of quests is generally horrible. Jumping to 5 different planets to finish one quest makes it very unenjoyable. I felt I spent half the game loading/traveling from planet to planet 3) I spent 50+ hours to complete this game. That is apparently on the low end to others. (Not a completionist) ME:A could’ve easily been a 30-35 hour game and would’ve been way more enjoyable. Bigger is not always better.
