Can we bang the female aliens shown? Excitement level raised. I hope they don't mess this up. I'm not preordering in case it's awful.

Why does it seem like everyone human is in a skin tight suit, where's my chunky mass effect armors? hope the game has plenty of that stuff to find.
Watch this guys. It's great.
Snippets:
Appear to be 7 worlds identified as possible Golden Worlds (Habitats 1-7). Guessing these will be the big "story-focused" worlds with sprinkling of exploration planets besides.
Male and Female Ryder have different backstories.
Some info on SAM, the ship's AI.
Tempest looking cool.

It may just be the trailer, but the impression I got is 'Lets take those same elements people associate with Mass Effect and reuse them"

The people look really bad. Plasticy and weirdly animated with irritating faces. The space scenes look pretty awesome though.

Although you can just change the website settings and watch in english to get the in-game reward, if you care about that.

Isn't the sister/brother(other sibling) another squadmate?
Metroidvania
People called Romanes they go the house?
Not a squadmate, no. Just support staff.
I love the setting and the games, and i'll get this.
but boy, they couldn't have gone in a more boring direction with this.
Ancient alien evil? again?
Almost the same squad composition, again?
And the lines are straight out of current blockbuster movies.
It's not bad but that could have been a lot better, or at least, more interesting.

Now I just wanna play
I thought this game was so dope as a kid.
Yep, with the weekly alien head problem too.
Last I heard sibling won't be squadable, but Shinobi would know better.

Anyone not impressed by the actiony trailers should really give the Pathfinder initiative videos a watch. Those have been pretty outstanding.
It's a guy whose only credit so far is voicing characters in Octodad (including the titular Octodad)

so perfect
That made me do a double take, so well done.
Weird it's like it's a Mass Effect game
I'm not in love with the armor designs, but they aren't too bad overall. The main thing that is killing me is the fucking pauldrons. What the fuck is going on with those Nerf looking things. They're tiny and squishy looking and look ridiculous on everyone but especially lightly armored characters like Cora.
This trailer just showing an antagonist and giving us no reason for why he's different does not do anything but make me less enthused about the game. I was hopeful a game about colonization would be about the complex relationships between alien races and the struggle to keep peace and balance whilst finding a new home, instead that part seems to be relegated to side quests whilst the main quest is "defeat generic bad guy or your mission will fail!"

Wow copy the avengers line smh and I don't feel the main character at all. I miss Shepard. I LOVED Mass Effect 1-3 but this one isn't clicking for me.
Why aren't they pushing the new andromeda initiative video more?

It's much better imo and details the squadmates more.
Maybe someone should create a new thread for that video.

Mass Effect is like one of my favorite things ever and I don't know why I can't get it up for this game..
It's bumming me out.
Cause it looks totally and utterly secondary and generic in each of the showings. This trailer made me think of Final Fantasy for some reason.

The squadmates of DAI were walking borefests, These squadmates seem to be going the same route.
Nu-Bioware at it again, They lost the magic years ago.
Inquisition in space.

Which Injustice 2 character is she again?
So you admit the trailer doesn't tell you the Archon's role and place in Andromeda and then speculate that he's a generic big bad that doesn't have anything to do with race relations and trying to find a new home while keeping peace?
This type of dubious reasoning is why, ftr, it seems some don't want this game to be good.

Huh, that was more underwhelming than I expected.
I'm hoping for a good game but I get the feeling that what ME1 gave in its storytelling isn't going to be on show here.

Is our sibling blood related? If not then possible romance right?
This.
The ancient evil things means we'll go around different colonies, solve their problems and unite everyone to fight against the big bad alien in an epic battle.
There will be zero ambiguity about whether that's the right thing to do.

Nope. They did something that was so wrong in the trailer that preorders were cancelled.
They didn't explain the entire backstory.

When this game is game of the year I'll come back to this thread and have a laugh.
Awesome, I'm finally getting excited. So basically it's like Star Trek. Dunno if I considered Mass Effect like Star Trek before, more space opera like Wars or Galactica but okay, I like everything sci-fi, so I'm still good. The brooding alien dude was meh, but we'll see if they can add some interesting elements.
Claire Underwood as main waifu? Don't know how I feel about that.

If the ship travelled across the line on "MASS EFFECT" my pants would be dirty just now.
