GC: Then by all means write your own, that’s what the Reader’s Features are for. Maybe you need an article from a gamer’s point of view who has seen the industry grow rather than the viewpoint of a late teen/early twentysomething that the mainstream media think their word is more valid than a gamer with experience. I’ve been gaming ever since I was six years old (yes, I’m ancient) and I have witnessed the vast majority of the UK gaming scene from Atari 2600 through to PlayStation 5. As a much older gamer (45) I could write a far superior article about the need for remasters and remakes. GC: Curious, we’ve never seen that message before.īioFox’s article about retro games was a complete joke. Just wondering if it’s been happening to anyone else as well? Never had this happen before so I am putting it down to the weather. Turn off your PS5 and wait until temperature goes down’. However, I was on my PlayStation 5 Sunday and it came up with message ‘PS5 is too hot. With the report about the Switch possibly melting during the heatwave I was a bit wary about using it, but it seems to be fine. A reboot or time skip doesn’t have to have the same story, or even similar to it, it’s the gameplay that’s important and the story should enhance that, not hold it back. They never are though, they just waste their time trying and I doubt Mass Effect will be any different. The problem with any long-lasting franchise is that they get tied down by their continuity and trying to be true to the canon. I think there is some hope that the new game might be a reboot of sorts though, as while they’ve shown some returning characters (probably) some of them are very long-lived alien species so they could be jumping ahead 100 years or so, which would work just as well. To me, this sounds like a recipe for disaster. No matter what the gameplay is like the thing I’m most worried about is that all their energy is going to go into making sense of Mass Effect 3’s ending and being some sort of continuation of Andromeda.
I agree with the Reader’s Feature about Mass Effect 4 at the weekend. A lot more than if they do more historical games. Make proper use of low and zero gravity, and an actual decent story, and I think you’d have something really interesting. It doesn’t have to involve aliens or even robots but it’s really not hard to imagine in the future that we will have bases on the Moon and Mars, and multiple spacestations, where things could kick off.
People hate the idea because we’ve still never had a game try to do a serious far future military shooter and do it well. I know some fans are going to hate the idea, but I think the obvious idea is sci-fi.
