Disappointed to see that they've gone back to using male Ryder for promoting ME4.

So disappointed I couldn't even enjoy that trailer.

@mikebithell With the overwhelming popularity of Femshep, I'm surprised they went with a dude for the marketing.

@subcide @mikebithell We switch, for each trailer.

There's been three trailers to my knowledge. One of them has Sarah and two have Scott although, one of them is the 4k demo.

It's not just the trailers though. Look everywhere. You see Scott and not Sarah most of the time. Was it ever actually said that Sarah would be the default or did GAF mislead me into believing so...? Because that has certainly fueled my disappointment.
 
Thing i liked the most was the name of the ship.
Hyperion
. I'm curious if it has something to do with tje book by Dan Simmons (highly recommended BTW).
 
Because of information entitlement. I mean, people think they are OWED gameplay....

A few people have been hinting at an early 2017 or march 2017 release (which now looks like a June release).

There have also been hints that lots of info is to come in November/December. But it hasn't materialized. Maybe they overestimated our interest in the lore that the "initiative" will explore.

I really just want to see game systems. Guess I'll have to wait until really close to release.

E3: main focus on MaleRyder, no gameplay for Sarah (a very short cinematic excerpt and the ending).
4K demo: MaleRyder only.
N7 Day: main focus on MaleRyder.

But we're like just 8 days into November...?

I'm hearing internet rumours stating Mar 21st because that's the release date of the artbook or something...
 
Liked the trailer, though i'll echo others in saying I wish it had a little more substance.

Mad that Mass Effect gets BC for XBOX One, I have a PS4 and would LOVE to go through all three games again but can't do so.

Also, who the heck cares what version of Ryder they use? Does it really matter that much, LOL. You can play as either, who cares who is featured in a trailer.
 
I think the most interesting thing we learned is that the Andromeda Initiative is NOT related to the Reaper threat at all.

This is the single biggest worry I have for the game as of ~1 hour ago.

Why are we sending thousands to their possible doom on an intergalactic voyage if not to escape the Reaper invasion, is it just 'Yay, Exploration!'.

Please tell me it's not 'Yay Exploration!'.

If it's a fight for humanities survival, surely the Reaper threat must be involved somewhere.....sigh, please don't Space Magic this away Mac :/

'Yay Exploration' is the entire premise of Star Trek as a series. I'm cool with it.
 
God the new standard maleshep looks like ass.

I'm going to need some Mark Vanderloo slider presets on day one. Shame the voice can't be fixed.
 
Again, it's not just trailers. It's obvious that they've defaulted to Scott and not Sarah. It's Scott on the site, in the screenshots and on the game box covers. Curse whoever it was who planted the idea that Sarah could actually be the default.

That's actually the father.

Or it could be, I don't know if there's a height difference.
