Mass Effect Andromeda will also be breaking new ground with the fact that it’s going to be BioWare’s largest game to date.

While better gear may not have a visual effect, it can really change how a hero plays. One of the best ways to get top-tier gear is through DNA Keys. These special loot items are hard to find, but can be used to unlock DNA Chests containing some of the best equipment in the game. Fortunately, it is possible to farm these Keys, but only on very specific daily missions....

With Marvel’s Avengers fans consistently requesting new Villain Sectors, this addition is welcome, as it could help greatly with the lack of unique boss fights. With Taskmaster and Abomination used for most of the Villain Sector missions, and War Bots used in the rest, gamers are understandably bored of playing the same final encounters. While Maestro’s Villain Sector added a bit more variety, it was just one mission, and his fight was similar to Abomination’s in a few ways....

Marvel fans will need no introduction to Doctor Doom, easily one of Marvel’s most distinguishable and powerful villains. While he is popular, he has not been given the spotlight in a while. It is surprising to see Doctor Doom in an explicit tease that does not need to name-drop the character directly in order for fans to acknowledge him, especially if it means he could potentially be the antagonist in a Marvel’s Midnight Suns sequel....

Spoilers for Marvel’s Spider-Man and Spider-Man: Miles Morales below. While many fans have wished for the Symbiote suit to be added to Marvel’s Spider-Man, there may be a reason why that fans can infer from that decision. Marvel’s Spider-Man introduces the iconic alien symbiote in a post-credits cutscene, where it is seen performing a seemingly restorative function in Harry Osborn’s fluid tank. But though Venom and the Symbiote suit are not currently confirmed to appear in the sequel, a fan’s open-ended question has resulted in an overwhelming response with hopes for Insomniac’s superhero franchise....

In the strictest, technical sense, Durkin’s exit Wednesday night reverses the catastrophic mistake the Maryland Board of Regents made the day before. In reality, it does not undo the mistake. That’s how bad and how big it was. It can’t be washed away in 24 hours just because Durkin was. The slap in the face to the campus, students, alumni, players, potential recruits, the sport and, most of all, Jordan McNair’s family, will sting for a long time....

Plus, the studio has said that shifting from the Tempest into planet exploration will also be a seamless experience....

As iconic as the Mass Effect series is, its community does have complaints about the games. Fans often criticize the original Mass Effect over controlling the Mako, and the ending of Mass Effect 3 was a massive controversy when it first launched. Of course, sweeping changes like an entirely new ending would run counter to the point of a remastered collection, but Mass Effect: Legendary Edition does promise to make quite a few changes to help smooth out the combat in the older titles and unify the experience as a whole....
