I've gotten far enough into the game where I am now getting the 5 row x 5 column glyph puzzles. I personally feel that these are EVEN WORSE than all of the dang decription you had to do in ME3. When I play a video game, I don't want mental stress. I play video games to relieve stress, not to induce it. I've been to two worlds that I have had to leave, out of frustration, because the "stoopid" puzzles were giving me a migraine. Yes I tried a few times... but on the 5x5 glyph puzzles, not only can you not have same glyphs in a row or column, they also cannot have a repeating glyph in the separate sections... it's excrement! It blows! It's worse than all the fricken decripting you had to do in ME3 combined, data pads, safes, doors, etc.

I played all the other mass effect games and this is the only one im seriously thinking about quitting. i stress enough at work. i DO NOT WANT to sit around for hours trying to figure out how to sodoku this *. i want to play a game, even figure out some stuff but there is no freaking way that i want to pay money to do these puzzles. ive spent over an hour staring at this screen trying to figure out this *. right now im sitting at "this game is not playable" for me.

I enjoy the puzzles. The difficult level from easy to mildly challenging.

They Glyph puzzles are (for me at least) enjoyable, just finished my first playthrough and well the puzzles are the only thing in the game that made me think. The story in all honosty was to predictable, no plot twists, and to many loose ends which are also easy to explain. No spoilers here.... but i wish there was a bit more depth to the story and more planets to physically explore.

While I don't hate the puzzles, I am bad at themI've resorted to selling minerals that I have thousands of, and buying the remnant decryption keys from the merchant on Aya so I can just bypass the puzzles with ease

Even 5x5 are easy to solve. There are usually places where obviously only 1 glyph can be placed and placing it you receive new sections of only one possible. You clearly enjoy puzzles and that is fine, but i personally HATE puzzles, they just are not my thing. But for everyone here that doesn't like them, here is the website with the solutions to the puzzles and there are no story spoilers, not from what i have seen so far, what i do is, make note of the quest name and when i get to a puzzle, i ALT-TAB find the quest and it gives the solution. http://www.powerpyx.com/mass-effect-andromeda-glyph-puzzle-solutions-locations/ So far, each puzzle solution has been correct. If you like the puzzles, good for you, but if you hate them like i hate them, here you go and you are welcome.

[PC] Does anyone else HATE the glyph puzzles?
