Mass Effect is a military science fiction media gaming series based on the role-playing shooter category. There are three major titles of the game including the Legendary Edition. Each game can be played from a third-person perspective.
Mass Effect: Andromeda is the fourth and latest title. Andromeda came up with a whole new storyline and characters. Besides that, developers also added a lot of exciting elements to the game. That’s why Andromeda is still bringing the heat in the market.
Why do people like it so much?
Mass Effect Andromeda is quite different from other expansions. The developers added a few brand new elements to make it user interactive. Andromeda is played in real-time which makes it unique. In the previous games, you can pause and play whenever you want but this one has to be played in one go.
Andromeda has both single and multiplayer modes. The story mode can be played in single-player mode while you can participate in cooperative matches with other players in the multiplayer mode.
There are 7 profiles and 3 skill sets in the game. You can unlock each profile by enhancing your current abilities. You can master a particular skill in the training mode. You can upgrade your skill by playing Biotics.
The story behind the game
The original trilogy of Mass Effect revolves around Commander Shepard whose sole purpose is to save the galaxy from Reapers while combating, exploring space, and completing missions.
Mass Effect: Andromeda starts right after the end of Mass Effect 3 where almost 20,000 citizens were sent in a sleeper ship to the Andromeda galaxy. 634 years later, they woke up from a long sleep. Alec Ryder was chosen to find a new home for its citizens. Scott and Sara are the children of Alec.
After a cosmic anomaly, one of the siblings gets into a coma and the communication system also gets knocked out. This leads your chosen Pathfinder and Alec to a Golden World, Habitat 7 and your main game starts from here. (Story automatically adjusts according to your chosen character, Sara and Scott)

How to use an auto clicker to play Mass Effect: Andromeda?
If you are playing the game on a PC, you have to use keyboards and mouse buttons in order to jump, dodge and shoot. Mostly, the gamers set the left mouse for shooting and keyboard buttons for other movements. Most of the guns in the game are semi-automatic. That’s why you have to click every single time to fire a bullet which can lead you to severe index-finger pain.
Instead of clicking the mouse repeatedly, you can use an auto clicker which is a piece of portable software that simulates mouse clicks. Auto clickers can be easily operated by Hotkey buttons. Most of the auto clickers have the same configuration so you don’t have to worry about choosing one. Just pick one reliable auto clicker like GG Auto clicker or OP Auto clicker and follow these steps.
Step 1: After installing the auto clicker, a small window will appear on your computer screen. The first thing you do is set the click interval which is the delay between two automated clicks. You can set it for milliseconds for quick firing.
Step 2: Set the mouse button to the Left and select Single click type. (Left-hand players can set it to Right)
Step 3: If you have limited ammo, you can set the number of clicks manually from Click Repeat. Otherwise, choose repeat until stopped for non-stop firing.
Step 4: Choose the current location as the clicking location. So wherever your dynamic mouse goes, it clicks on the cursor’s location.
Step 5: Set a Hotkey button that doesn’t match any of the gaming keyboard buttons.
Step 6: Now you can minimize the window and all you have to do is tap the hotkey. Just tilt your mouse for perfect aim and weapons will fire automatically. Whenever you are done, just press the hotkey again to stop.
Final Verdict
Mass Effect is a huge series and Andromeda covers most of the part. Even if you’re a veteran player, you will always find new things while exploring the planets. Multiplayer mode is the cherry on top in this perfect game. You can also use the auto clicker in this mode to show off your skills in the game.
