Happy N7 Day, everyone!

I’m looking forward to the release of Mass Effect: Andromeda, so here are some fun tidbits about the game I’ve picked up (and I’m sure you all have, too):
- The playable character, Ryder, will again have a male and female option, but these two characters are related to each other and both will exist within the universe at the same time. So no more erasing a potential person from existence…?
- Ryder starts as an average Joe, unlike Cmd. Shepard, who started the series as a hero and then was elevated to demi-god status.
- The new game will take place in the Andromeda galaxy (duh), which means that humans will be an invading alien species, unlike in the original trilogy, in which humans were a recognized species in the galaxy. Knowing BioWare, that will probably have an effect on the story and on gameplay.
- Judging from the various trailers, it seems like Ryder and his/her human companions left Earth well before the Reaper war. Not only does this mean the game doesn’t need to acknowledge your final choice from Mass Effect 3, but also presents the possibility that Ryder et al. won’t know about the Reaper invasion at all. Andromeda will therefore be a clean slate not strongly tied to the other games.
- The Mako will be back!!
- Andromeda will include hundreds of planets that can be explored, perhaps succeeding where No Man’s Sky has seemingly failed.
- Another trailer is set to release today!
(edit: here it is!)
