Wait what? E3 Starts today? Nice!

 

[Weaver]

EA presser, start! The pre-show was pretty cringy, can't wait for the real thing.

 

[Godzillarich(aka tf2godz)]

He's talking so much about nothing, like he's stalling

 

[Godzillarich(aka tf2godz)]

So a segment about Esports on a game based on a sport.

 

[meiam]

So ME andromeda is in another galaxy... why even make it a mass effect game then? Just make a new IP then...

Really wish people were okay playing non human cause we'd get to play rachni war/genophage and that'd be awesome

 

[Godzillarich(aka tf2godz)]

EA:Sports everybody!

But what about Star Wars, battlefield and battlefront?

EA:SPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORTS!

Yeah, I bet it's gonna be epic for the win. Wooo!

I'll watch the footage later, after my favourite YouTubers have had a chance to spice things up and put them in convenient and amusing videos.

And yes, I mean cringe montages.

What? Is it a 'Human's have expanded to other stars' thing, or is it more like a Stargate: Atlantis thing?

 

[Godzillarich(aka tf2godz)]

Well, got what I came for. It can end now.

did you say sports? will give you an extra sports segment just for you.

 

[Godzillarich(aka tf2godz)]

Were working on Star Wars games.........

Next up battlefield.

I'm going to be a party pooper here:

Why is there another mass effect game? Mass effect 3 was the conclusion. A new mass effect with new charactars, new antagonists, new protagonist might as well have been a new IP. I'd have preferred it to be a new IP. I oppose its existance and won't be buying it. Unless I hear that it is absolutely amazing, allong with some details that peak my interest, but I'm not holding out hope for that. In fact, I somewhat hope that doesn't happen, because then I have to begrudgingly admit that soulless marketing and using brand recognition as opposed to artistic common sense has delivered a decent product. Besides, lets be real here. The new mass effect won't hold a candle to the other ones.

Mass Effect Andromeda looked cool. Liked the Star Trek direction they're going in. That's all there is to say really.

Because they have already estabilished universe that people know and like. There's nothing wrong in placing new game in it.

Because fans will buy it. Company won't shy away from putting brand name on whatever it is if it will sell more copies. It's not like the brand name will make money by not being used.
So what if it ruing the universe and/or the series? It won't make money if you don't use it! Besides, the series will only go down IF you make the next one. There is basically no downsides to it.

And lastly, There is still incredibly small minuscule chance that game will be good, like picking chosen grain of sand from the beach.

P.S: EA e-sports.

 

[Godzillarich(aka tf2godz)]

Nothing. Though to be fair, EA will have any actual new games at Sony or MS' shows. At least I hope so, because damn, 2 new Star Wars games coming 2018 and beyond is pretty weak in terms of new stuff.

Spoiler

Well, got what I came for. It can end now.

On one hand, vehicles are back! Whee!

On the other... They talk about the new worlds and new aliens and new techs... and then show a stream of generic worlds, old aliens, and samey tech.

Come on, Bioware. We both know you can do better.
