@nibbin1191: Maybe they didn't buy the Prothean DLC for ME3 & they didn't get resolution to that story.

Dumbest move ever, not including that guy in the main game for everyone.

@nibbin1191: I think they've said something about this being a human mission so there might not be a cast of familiar species on the ship.

These races have had so much lore built up around them, it's a rich galaxy to explore but at the same time I can see how new people making the game might want a bit more free reign with their creativity.

@fraidso: I actually enjoyed the first one, even if it did recycle missions a bit. Just waiting for PC port reports but I'll probably pick this one up too.

I think this year the industry is learning some big lessons about transparency & marketing though. Consumers are a little less trusting of pre-release footage after games like No Man's Sky.

"Depth is also added by fights breaking out between enemy factions, while whole-planet scans can give you clues about the world around you." Why am I reminded of another space game that boasted about it's scope & depth?

I just hope this game will be good. There's so many ways they can go wrong. DA: Inquisition was great but it suffered from a lot of flaws, at least Bioware should have learned a few lessons.

"Week one sales were down... despite... an 8 from Gamespot." Gamespot's review & score came out after this report.

I know it's a crazy thought but what if players felt duped by pre-release marketing for the last game & actually waited for reviews this time? It's probably more complex than that but I still like to point out the flaw in the statement.

@deviltaz35: Some games have a slider to add more NPCs. From the small amount of PC footage I've seen, the streets still look pretty empty. That's not great but as long as there's stuff to do, I'll be happy. I enjoyed the first Watch Dogs despite the limited mission variety so I can probably find enough to keep me busy here.

Looks like there are a bunch of flaws but the overall experience is still fun. Just waiting to see how the PC port runs.

@fattiesgonewild: Crying wolf on paid reviews does nobody any favours. Save it for when money is actually changing hands.

@Iemander: Not sure if trolling or stupid.

Well trolled sir... or not.

I find it funny that it's just PC geeks in the comments bragging that they already know all these busted myths.

I'm a PC geek too so I don't mean that as an insult. I just think it's funny that this article is basically preaching to the choir. If you're the one console gamer who actually read this article, comment here.
