I ignored ALL the reviews, i had seen some of the reviews and how they did their best to slate, and thats before you take into account the click-bait youtubers who are quick to annihilate a product without actually really properly playing it first.
I enter all huge titles like this with an open mind.. there is only one reviewer i trust.. and that is me. I don't buy every game that comes out, but as i'd played ME2 and ME3 so much i figured that this game whilst being a leap in a new direction was still worth the punt.
I am really pleased with the game itself, i've played through once on normal difficulty and am on a higher difficulty play through now. The game is fun even the second time albeit that i am spacebarring through all the conversations that don't matter as much just to clear the dialogues. (but that's just me 🙂 )
The game does however have more than its fair share of rather serious bugs right now, and my view regards DLC's is this.. don't DLC the product until you have a much more stable current version, and judging by the volume of bugs discovered even after the 1.07 hotfix (new faults i might add!) then it suggests that there is much more to do in the fixing of the existing product before you start adding a lot more story arc code in such as a DLC.
I will be first in the queue to get any DLC if they made one mind you, but i need to see certain faults fixed first.
Now.. future Mass Effect.. who knows? what if they reapers somehow followed them to andromeda.. after all, they would want to complete the purge would they not? would be one hell of a DLC or even sequel to andromeda right there... and the Kett/Chosen do look like the Protheans in ME3.. so it could even be that there is more to the kett than meets the eye.. perhaps even a variant of the protheans that never mastered certain technology perhaps? So much scope.. but i would hope that they get this product working well first, then re-visit the prospect of a new product or dlc.
