Official Mass Effect: Andromeda Discussion (Hype/Speculation/Anticipation)

ME2 launch trailer cannot be topped IMO. The Andromeda one is damn good though!

I didn't realize the Andromeda Funkos are already in stores so I grabbed a Jaal from Target earlier for $8.99. They had one Peebee but of course her face was pretty scuffed up :wall:
 
Oh dang, I need to find the target exclusive Preview pop. Thanks for the tip, Avenged.

That trailer, tho. Wow. The space battles are what got me excited. I realize we likely will not control a ship, but it sure felt epic.

Is there a Target-exclusive POP? I know of the one from BB and the one from Gamestop, though wasn't sure about Target.

Also, if you've bought the BB POP, it goes down to $9.99 on Sunday, so get your money back for the price difference.

EDIT: Looks like I found it, though this on eBay:

The launch trailer, I peaked, I couldn't help it. I was watching stuff on Youtube and the trailer followed suit as a related video and I caved. OMG!

 
9/4 Days and Counting

Soo yeah I have spent

$26.59 total, using a majority of my Christmas GCs on

the Deluxe Edition

and then the $10 for the BB Steel Case.

CAG for life lol.

 
I'll probably go Sara on Xbone and Scott on PS4.


Kinda bummed, due to the storm New England is getting tomorrow I am now working the 16th instead of a planned day off to start Andromeda...

Jaal reminds me partly of Garrus and partly of Wrex from this video.

;)

I know you guys know (squadmates in this case) but I don't want to know so from now on can you Spoiler tag that shit!

8/3 Days and Counting, I'm counting it as 3.

I debated it, but i think I'm going to pass on getting EA access for this.  I'd just dedicate the entire time to the MP, which isn't a bad thing.  I guess I just feel like If I've waited this long, I can wait a couple more days for the 100% entire and complete experience with no gates or restrictions.  Am I dumb for thinking this way?

I'm still having a heck of a good time with Horizon, but I have to come to terms with the reality that I'm going to have to put that on the shelf until the summer.  I hate leaving games unfinished.  But this is Mass Effect for crying out loud.

That's why I already pushed through and got the Horizon plat, no distractions. I will have some Zelda left to play though...
 
Thanks Shrike.

Yeah that's the reason I didn't pick up Zelda for Wii U or grab Steep on Xbox One, although I did enjoy my time with it over the free weekend period. There's just no point at this point lol.

 
My BB POP also showed up.  The GS one about a week ago. 

Wish the Target one was listed already, so I can get the set taken care of without eyeballing eBay and getting irked about it. 

 
I just listened to the latest Podcast Unlocked and in it they had a bit talking about their exclusive Firsts with Mass Effect and trying to avoid spoilers. The guy was like well it's the first 13 minutes of the game so yeah there's gonna be spoilers. The community was appreciative for how they're unveiling the game, trying to minimize spoilers but also show people the goods. Also apparently people at PAX East were able to get their hands on the multiplayer of Andromeda?!

7/2 Days and Counting!

Introducing Drack. Be aware that this one, more so than the other teammate videos, shows some stuff that you might prefer to be surprised by in the game. ;)

There's just a torrent of new videos today from all kinds of sites, I think at this point I'm going to stop worrying about posting everything. The game is on our doorstep anyway. :)

 
Yeah that "Ugly" preview is really something lol. Guy seems very angry at the game!

Previews are interesting to read but I already know all I need to know to be able to confidently predict that I will love this game. :)

I can't say if I'll like the game or not, but I do know I am interested in it and am keeping my preorder.  I'm avoiding reviews as they drop spoilers even without intending to.  I can't believe the launch trailer kinda contains spoilers.  From all the other videos leading up to this point, I assumed we were tasked with exploring those 7 worlds.  Then
the launch trailer reveals that none of those worlds are ideal.
  Like WTF.  It's probably not a huge deal, but I wished I would've found that out in-game instead.

 
I just "bought" the trial, so hopefully it's downloading to my X1 right now.  That way, when I have some free time later tonight, it'll be ready to go.

@ chubbyninja1319, did you get EA Access yet?
Click to expand...
I have not. I'm still planning to wait until Tuesday, but I'd be lying if I'm still not thinking about getting Access and the 10 hour trial. To hear some of the gang 'round here playing and seeing the inevitable posts.....not sure I can withstand that temptation.

And this is going to sound super nerdy, because it is super nerdy, but there is this 1000 piece Boba Fett mosaic puzzle I'm working on and I want to finish that before ME:A comes out, so I was going to try to wrap that up this weekend. :oops:

And, for reference, if anybody hasn't already and wants to add me on XBL or PSN, my gamertags are in the sig below. Feel free to add me to play the multiplayer or just to compare achievements, whatever.
