Played through it once and unlikely to play through again (unlike the original trilogy) - whilst pretty in places the animations are still cringe-worthy in places (speak to the rescued VI in Sam's nexus and it looks like your head is being twisted off) . I may play the multiplayer a bit more as that seems more fun than in ME3 - though there are some poor servers out there.

A game killed off by whinging millennial kids who get upset when they don't get everything their own way. Sad way to end the series.
Alternatively, a game killed off by staggeringly bad mismanagement of the project. How they thought they'd get away with releasing what they did in the state it was in I don't know. They were rightly publicly shamed for their hubris.
Rob, whilst I agree it was a sad way to end the series, the blame lies entirely with the developer and publisher; I moaned about the game in this very topic, and I'm no millennial kid! As Durzel said, the project was poorly managed and the game, even as its stands now, is a six out of ten at best.

Bit of a revival but I just started playing this last week. Not really much in the way of bugs thankfully so glad I avoided that.

I'd say I'm about 40% through? Don't know tbh. Settled 3 worlds so far with 2 more on the list, waiting to go fight the Archon on the main quest.

To be honest I'm absolutely loving it. Yes some things aren't as polished, and I'm disappointed i can't see feed back from a lot of my quests on the Nexus or the outposts but overall I can't stop playing.

I totally accept most of the quests are a bit go here do that, but I don't know .. the feel and the context is totally keeping me happy at the moment, I haven't been so hooked in a long time!

Sounds like I'm easily pleased.

A lot of the criticism was overblown.
