Got Andromeda for $8. Sank twelve hours into it so far.
Initial impression is that the game is not polished at all:
-Jittery/ twitchy animations, and inconsistent animation quality.
-Meshes going inside other meshes, mostly characters' upper arms going into torso. Major oversight there since 50% of gameplay it is visible.
-Enemies spawning inside structures-can kill you but you cant kill them.
-Character models for male and female humans, and all Asari, look strange, particularly the arms and shoulders. Not at all the shape of real people, reminds me of saints row 3 body types (eww).
-Character customization pretty much cut compared to first 3 games. The default faces for both genders look fine, but the rest...let's just say I do not want to look at them.
-Controls on 360 controller, configured by someone that doesn't play games, probable shoe size IQ.
-Game feels bloated, but not in a pure waste of time sense, like some games. I just don't think the pacing between meaningful events, or the density of excitement, is where it should be. I don't know if there is any replayability potential here, as I've already done long things that I do not care to go through again (reminds me of the first dragon age).
+Runs fine, has not crashed or had a game breaking bug.
If I eventually finish it, may comment further if I have anything to add.
