I thought Andromeda was a pretty decent game. However, as a "Mass effect game", it was quite lacking. My buddy and I agree that Andromeda would have fared better if it had tried to be a stand alone title or marketed itself as a mass effect side story. Instead, it cratered under the unfair expectations of the previous 3 that came before it. I kinda agree that Andromeda was a bit of a grind. The ability to skip was a huge welcome later in the game, but there were still some gaps that took way too long to travel to.
I might be wrong, but I think Andromeda was done by a team not even associated with the original trilogy?
The game was quite decent value at around $20-30 bucks. There's far worse options than Andromeda at that price IMO.
