Re: Mass Effect Andromeda officially dead...

It just shows that EA does not give a rats * about the fan base. It's all about money! No surprises there I guess.

"Well we will not spend any cash on additional SP content, because why should we? But we still want YOU to spend some cash, so just give us more money in the commission for the comic books and novels. Great deal... from our stand point!"

I am a massive Mass Effect fan. I have turned all my friends into fans as well. For me... it's like a personal defeat. It's too bad that EA can see us players as living and breathing wallets.

    My wallet has slammed shut, since $$ is the only thing they understand.

    I dont care what other ME games or any other games they do. Untill Andromeda is given its proper completion in game form, not stupid comics and books - its staying zipped uo tightly, not another cent from me and I know I am not the only one done with EA.

    The MEA direction was not the failure. Not taking longer to complete the game properly,  supporting it properly now with the rest of the patches it should have had months ago and not giving it dlc, those are the failures. The game itself, bar a few odd animations, was very solid with a very promising new future and mysteries to solve.

    So mad they are dropping MEA.

    The buggy launch and animation memes hit sales figures.

    The game likely sold enough to wash its face, but not enough for the install base to justify making DLC.

    I don't like it, but I understand it.

    The way marketing and communications have been handled have not been great in my view.
