Mass Effect: Andromeda vs Red Dead Redemption
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.
Red Dead Redemption
Red Dead Redemption is, as many called it, the defining game of the previous generation of consoles. Set in wild, wild west of 1911, you, playing as former outlaw John Marston, was forced to head back into the cradle of crime when a federal agents threatened your family. His goal? To hunt down the gang of criminals he once called friends and to hopefully and finally bury the hatchet of his blood-stained past. There are plenty of cover-based gun-slinging in this game, in addition to some fun mini-games prevalent back in the era, including blackjack and poker. You'll also need to do some odd jobs to make ends meet from time to time, which mostly involve hunting down animals and people alike. The replayability in this game is pretty sufficient as well since the game offers challenges and unique stranger missions aside from the main, story-driven quests.Red Dead Redemption has been hailed as one of the best Western-themed game of all time and we couldn't agree more. If you own a console and love wild west, you might want to check this game out!
