Mass Effect: Andromeda liveblog (inactive)

[sincere]

There is a 50% chance that this journal will be liveblogs and the occasional rant, going forward. I almost ranted about the all-female Lord of the Flies remake this morning, but I've lost interest in it by now.

Does anyone use Discord? Maybe want a server to chat about current events and/or fictional fandoms and/or just be dorks?

Anyway, I was blackmailed by a certain person to download the trial version of Mass Effect: Andromeda, and after a few hours of playing it, all I want to do is continue playing it, even though I only have a few hours left on the trial and by god I will not buy another game before at least finishing FFXV.

Pretty.

Also, my crew.

Suvi: I could show you my research into the soil and microfauna. It's 60 pages.
Ryder: 60. That's... a lot of pages. ...about dirt.
Suvi: You don't have to be kind. I know it's barely more than a summary.
