Andromeda is fine as long as you don't compare it to the core Mass Effect trilogy. Ryder is no Shepard, and none of your squadmates are as memorable as Garrus, Tali, Mordin and the rest. But take the game as its own thing, and it's a pretty good time.
So it's missing all the things that made Mass Effect good
I'd say it's missing all the things that made mass effect great. But its still a fine game.
I'd say that's fair.
The graphics are pretty good and combat is enjoyable for about an hour, but the game is incredibly repetitive - drive around the planet, peril will be provided by cold/heat/gas, solve the exact same boring puzzles, fight one of two kinds of bad guy, go to a new planet and do it again, etc.
The story was almost in danger of being interesting at times, but the plot is cliched and predictable. I didn't like Andromeda and I loved ME1-3
