Borderlands 2 vs Mass Effect: Andromeda
Borderlands 2
Borderlands 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the popular first game, Borderlands. This time around, the game brings a whole different storyline, starring the charismatic and cunning but equally as whacky CEO of Hyperion, Handsome Jack as the villain. Featuring all new characters/vault hunters and classes, you'll get to dive, once again, into the world of Pandora. Armed with more weapons that you can use, you're hell-bent on exacting your revenge on Jack and will shoot-down any enemy creature or people alike that stand in your way. There are even more loot to be had too - there are shields, grenades, relics, class mods and more for you to loot and then use to augment your character.If you love Borderlands, you'll love Borderlands 2 even more! It has been dubbed as the best game in the series mainly because of the huge amount of innovation it brings and this is a sentiment that we express as well... sorry Borderlands: The Pre-sequel! If you get the chance, you should really check this game out!
Mass Effect: Andromeda
Mass Effect: Andromeda is a spin-off from the brilliant Mass Effect trilogy that lets you assume the role of a Pathfinder (as opposed to Commander Shepard) where you and your team of highly-trained soldiers will help humanity lead its first pioneers into the uncharted Andromeda galaxy. Featuring the game's signature saga-like storyline that's overflowing with mystery and epic space conflict, this game contains many aspects that Mass Effect fans have enjoyed and loved before, including incredibly in-depth character customization and character interactions, but at an enhanced and improved level. Interestingly, the game provides a destructible environment that a clever player can use to their advantage during heated combat.The game's gameplay also has a nice upgrade. Aside from boosted jumps, players now have a new line of weapons and tech to play with as well as the use of the very unique Biotics which definitely helps super-charge every battle you get into. Galaxy exploration is a key factor in this game as well, being Pathfinders and all.
However, either the publisher, EA Games, or the developers, BioWare, have decided to cancel single player updates for Mass Effect: Andromeda and only focusing on multiplayer ones. This comes as a great disappointment to many fans mainly because they love the storyline and would actually like to play them out in a game rather than, as announced recently, through comics or books. On the bright side though, there may still be more Mass Effect games to come in the future.
