EDIT: Just realised this thread is literally titled "No Spoilers". I hid them, so hopefully it's ok?
I finished it. Bout 100h playtime. Great fun.
I'm sad I couldn't play at 4k, but I got a mix of high/ultra at 1440, which was nice.
Opinions (spoilers later will be hidden)
Good- Combat was fun and cathartic.
- Nomad was great. SKIINS!!!
- Wide weapon and power variety.
- Generally good story.
- Characters felt generally real.
- Very pretty.
- Planets are big and generally interesting and varied.
- Some of the dialogue made me literally lol. Most remembered:
"Pathfinder! They're scanning us!"
"Well scan them back!"
and
"Really pathfinder?" after jumping onto the ship on Eos.
Bad/Disappointing- Obvious ones
-- Lack of facial animation (Didn't have an issue with any other animations. Didn't deserve the flak it got)
--- People just didn't emote enough for me.
-- Loooots of freezes, mostly when leaving or entering a planet.
- Planets could feel a little repetitive like:
Elaaden and Eos felt similar being sandy/dusty empty worlds.
- Kett design was boring, basically just the Collectors.
- Lack of enemy variation.
-
Lack of compelling characters. (I'll retract this for now. There was a banter bug which likely lessened their impact on me. Also I've only played once so far.)
- Biotics felt a bit weak, and PROFILES MADE ME SAD.
- A lol-worthy thing too: Actual spoilers here about minor story and location.
Forward stations earned their name when, on Havaarl, I'd just met this group of super reclusive people on top of an ancient tower where they'd been undisturbed for centuries or something.
And this forward station just zooms down right next to an ancient statue...
- Story: Obviously spoilers
Basically ME1, right down to getting a magic key to ancient technology, fighting robots.
- That said, ending was better than expected. Shame it was so short.
In general, I loved it, even if it was a very safe entry.
Some screenies: Maybe spoilers so I'll hide them. Mostly just pretty locations and stuff.
I LOVE the fact that outside the ship is variable and you can watch things go by.

DYNAMIC DUST! Looks sooo good. Ice happens too.

Is...is that tessellation magic? *cough* Uh excuse me just a sec...

Mmm foliage.

Glowey armour rules. Also blue water

Godrays! and bawse pose.

Um...Peebee? Are-are you ok? I'm sorry we're out in this heat bu-
