You’ve already decided it’s going to be bad. No matter what. How small minded are you?

Hey, the trillion dollar company is trying their hardest, give them a break!
Hell, the last two seasons of SG-1 did that for me. I wasn’t looking for a Farscape reunion.
I call those seasons Fargate
It’s a Fargate. It makes things go far! We are not getting sued!
Amazon studios did a good job with Fallout Season 1
I think when they’re still running on the “capture market share” part of thier strategy they tend to be more hands off and just let the creatives reign free. It’s when they start expecting a return on the investment that they get more hands on and turn everything to shit…
Funny how polarized the comments are.
Going by their track record, season 1 will either be quite good or really bad. There will be no in between, and I’m fine with that… best it doesn’t go on as a mediocre zombie.
I feel like Amazon actually try to make decent stuff, they just don’t do a very good job of it.
What did they do to Mass Effect?
I guess they want to insinuate that Andromeda killed Mass Effect. While Andromeda certainly got a studio killed, the game itself is actually pretty good in my opinion.
I enjoyed playing Andromeda, in fact I think gameplay-wise it’s the most fun of any mass effect. But story and character wise it was so mediocre that very shortly after finishing it I couldn’t tell you who anyone was or any of the things that happened.
It might have been better off with a different spin-off name that made it clear it was in the same universe but wasn’t really Mass Effect, because it kinda misses the mark for what those games were about.
The game was horrible. The characters were atrocious, especially the lead. The male one anyway, I didnt play the female one.
You certainly shouldn’t make the mistake of using the default character faces. Those faces have been tarnished by the massive motion capture issues early on.
I don’t know how many people have watched SG-1 recently but my wife and I just watched the movie and the first like 8 episodes for the first time in the last two months and… It was not good. The tech made no sense, the plot often times made no sense, the characters were very 90’s television, and of course there was a lot of racial, sexism, xenophobia embedded or explicit in each episode.
I’m happy people enjoyed it in its time, and if you still watch it and like it that’s fine. But I wouldn’t recommend this show to anyone young or that I know personally cause it wasn’t good.
Stargate felt like it lacked the philosophical core that other sci-fi shows at the time (or before) had and didn’t have the sci-fi down really either. It was mostly “look at these lesser earth based cultures”, “nerds are so annoying”, “cool military guys are just built different”. Coming off of Babylon 5 which had like Worker rights episodes or nearly any season of early Star Trek, SG-1 felt hollow. I’m surprised people like Stargate as much as they do.
You could probably say the same about TNG, the first season wasn’t great. But it picks up pace and gets better and better (with a few bad episodes every now and then).
Give it a chance.
just like they got ready for black friday by raising the prices of things in my cart, making the original prices prime exclusive, and calling it sale price?
