Now that emotions have settled, what do you think about Mass Effect: Andromeda? Would you recommend it to a fan of ME 1-3? (rammy.site)

I know Andromeda has a poor reputation, and a lot of it stems from issues at release. I am just curious what people who have played it more recently think about it. I'm a Mass Effect fan, and it looks like I can pick Andromeda up for less than 5 dollars at most places. Is it worth 5 bucks?

Edit: Thank you guys so much for all the perspectives! I'm going to pick it up and give it a try.

I played it on release, and enjoyed it for the most part.

It's not as good as the original games, with a weaker story, weaker characters and a wasted opportunity with the new galaxy, but it's still a decent game in its own right. The combat was great fun, and while the other stuff isn't up to the standard of the originals it's also not bad.

I remember some of the collectathon side quest tasks were a bit tedious, but I think they can be avoided.
