May I recommend a combination of moonshine and heroin?

On a more serious note, I gotta say some of you really need to learn a bit of patience. I'm personally not getting the game until 3-6 months after its release.

Yeah, screw that. Already have it preordered, gonna be playing it the minute it's available. Can't wait.

I'd like to wait until I can get the deets on which gender has better voice acting, which romances are good, the best companions and which classes are fun before I buy.

I suppose it may be a bit optimistic to hope for a price drop as well....

Speaking of romances, are we ever gonna get the rundown on who among your squad and crew will be available? Bioware should know nobody is gonna run blind in their games these days and risk wooing someone only to find out way late they're not into your selected gender or just not into the main character at all.

Yeah, all that + patches, DLC, and a possible sale(even if a small one).

TOO LONG

I got a funny feeling in my stomach last night when I turned on my playstation 4 last night and saw that ME:A started the pre-release download.

Sounds awful, but it's hard to say right now.

Definitely some concerning things there in that write up. Hopefully they're unique to the start of the game. Hopefully most of the sidequests are better than what is described there.

Ouch. I hope that reviewer is wrong. I've never played Mass Effect for the gameplay. It was always for the story, characters, and atmosphere. Shoddy writing will kill all 3 really quickly.

No surprises there. Almost everything they've released has looked awful.

Kotaku and Eurogamer had much more positive "reviews" than Rock Paper Shotgun regarding the game.

I'll wait till reviews hit.

But I do believe this game will probably get shitcanned due to not meeting peoples expectations. Mass Effect 3 was in the same boat after the fantastic second game.

I've been watching some gameplay on twitch. The writing overall seems fine, I have a feeling this guy picked the worst instances to complain about.

The voice work does seem hit and miss, though.

See, this is why you don't pre-order or buy games on day one. Heed my advice, people.

I have no idea who this guy is so I might be completely off. However, a few comments suggested that the writer is called "disliker of things" and they were not surprised he had such a sour look on the game.

To me, that article suggested one thing. He clearly didn't like the game (which is cool!) and the rest were just extreme nitpicks of somebody who doesn't like the game.

For instance, I hated Skyward Sword so every little minor annoyance was amplified. This sounds like this is the case with this write up.

Personally, unless reviews are disastrous, I'm going to pick this up. However, it looks more and more of the case of being Mass Effect version of Inquisition (which I still liked!) which if true, makes me a bit sad.

Guess what?
