Right, but the character models and animations also aren't what made the game bad either. Which is the case for Andromeda.Originally Posted by DMKA
Yeah, that's why I just raise an eyebrow at all the bitching I see about ugly character models and wonky animation followed by "It's over Mass Effect is RUINED!" I'm like "Uh...so you never played the original trilogy then?"
Bioware has made great games, don't get me wrong. I absolutely love both Mass Effect and Dragon Age, but the character models and animations certainly aren't what made those games great. They've almost always been the weakest point honestly.
The animations made the characters, and ultimately the story, much more believable in the original Mass Effect trilogy. In the case of Andromeda it appears that the bad animations, bad writing and bad voice acting are all flaws.
All of those issues hurt a game's ability to tell a convincing story. And dialogue/story is the main reason people loved the original Mass Effect trilogy.
