WHAT WE CAN LEARN FROM MASS EFFECT ANDROMEDA | BEING TO HARSH ON A GAME CAN HAVE BIG CONSEQUENCES...
I think its important to look at game like this, due to the current destiny 2 and EA backlash, and learn that sometimes we the fans can push too harsh, which may lead to the cancellation of some of our favorite IPs..

Hey guys so today I’m going to discuss something different than usual, many of you might think that I just go along with popular opinion and agree with whatever will get me vides, but today I want to look back on a game and franchise, where I shared a rather unpopular opinion: I think fans were too harsh on Mass Effect andromeda, yes I know I already made a video on this subject matter back in the summer, where my video got a ton of views because it was one of the only videos at the time to have a more positive and balanced look on the game and all the controversy surrounding it. So now here we are in 2018 and I think the case of mass effect andromeda, is still a rather important subject matter, as it taught gamers and consumers many valuable lessons. Looking back at all the big game so of 2017, its not hard to find a shortage of disappointment and controversy. Whether it be the underwhelming COD WW2 and Destiny 2, or the massive upsetting of Star Wars battlefront 2 and its loot crates. 2017 was quite a year to remember, and mostly for all the wrong reasons, but the game that stood out to me the most, and the situation that I still find myself thinking about from time to time, is Mass Effect Andromeda. A game that I’m sure needs no introduction, after having one of the most disastrous launches in video game history ,with unprecedented fan and consumer backlash. Now I am going to include timestamps in the description below for those who want to skip around the conversation, but for those who want to hear everything I have to say, I’m first going to talk about why mass effect matters so much to me personally, before getting to Andromeda.
........
Playing mass effect andromeda today is rather cheap, the game is on sale constantly, along with discounts, and at times even given away for free. And if you play the game today with all the patches added in, I don’t think its that bad of a game, in fact I would say its actually a good game, the gameplay is great, the music is good, and the visuals are incredible! The problem is, its not a good mass effect game. Mass Effect: Andromeda is a game of two halves, a beautiful disaster, and it stands as game that taught developers and publishers a valuable lesson, in terms of respecting customers, but it also taught fans, that if you are too negative for too long, against a game or franchise that you love, it can end in the cancellation and abandonment of an IP forever, and in that situation, no one wins, there is only loss and sadness. I think this is an important game and situation to remember, as we criticize games and developers, we should not blindly hate, or be over the top in negativity, and instead we should seek to vote with our wallets, and offer useful and constructive feedback on how games can be done and handled better. Ok guys well that ends my video on Mass Effect andromeda, and what we can learn from the past, but I want to know your thoughts as well. What did you think of the points I made, what did you think about mass effect andromeda? Let me know in the comments below, and as always if you liked this video and you want to see more like it, be sure to leave a like and hit that subscribe button, and ill see you guys on the next Shepard gaming video.
