I am not one for preordering games. I usually dont get games anymore until they are cheaper too. Now i dont buy games anymore to save for more financially responsible things. Anyways i got gamestop giftcards for christmas. ($75) and i pretty much have to get something. I have no game to look forward to but ME:A seems like the only game that has my slight attention. I wont be pulled again until halo 6... which has atleast a yr or two before anything is said. Why i am hesitant: I keep getting a STRONG destiny vibe from it. The more i look into the game the stronger it gets. Open world rpg type shooters with mp(like destiny and division) i tend not to trust. I just dont feel gaming is ready for that type and has tons of content(atleast on release) More microtrans... i can live with... but a video cited gameinformer stating that those that are not fortunate enough with rng can buy certain weapons in weekly rotations (you know... like XUR). Doesnt sound that bad really although it still makes me think destiny. No season pass... GREAT!.... but current games that rely on microtrans for dlc seems to be very slow on rolling out new content (titanfall 2/gow4) Look. Mass effect 3 is my favorite multiplayer game to date. If i got this it would definitely be for the mp. The main problem is, as i watch the gameplay.. all i can think of is destiny on the frostbite engine. (Not a fan of new frostbite and bright color palette. ) Tldr Its the only game i have any interest in but i want to be happy on my purchase and not buy another flop. EA take on destiny. Hopefully someone can have information that will finalize my decision
