Keeps the boredom quotient minimized.- Many different folks to interface with, keeps you on your toes to make sure you don’t miss anything.- Crew and other significant characters can be quite diverse with some possibly interesting personalities at times.- Number of different romance options, but romancing some weird aliens can be a bit of a turnoff, unless one is really adventurous.- Ship layout of the Tempest is fairly well organized.

Takes a really long time to find characters you like and easy to find who you don't like

Aside from that, characters are good, dialogue good, combat good, weapon customization great, and environments awesome

The gameplay is smooth; a bonus for those with lesser coordination, and the characters are memorable, bringing out varied emotions depending on the Player and choices

IMO it's not as good as ME2 and ME3, both games had a better story and main character but this game is still 5 stars.

Boring characters that feel like retreads of much better developed characters in the original Mass Effect trilogy.

Good story strong characters.

Still those fixes didn't address the poor writing, shoddy character development, and the poor use of the loyalty system.

Vetra - She's the best character to grace a video game in ages

It took me a little while to like the characters, but after getting to know them I really started to enjoy this game

Like a character saying, "oh remember when we shot so and so" when you haven't even met that character they are taking about

Boring characters and bland storyline.

Good action, bad writing, bad facial animations, bad voice acting, and ugly character models

I love the characters, and the story as well

Meaning, that even though you think you have this super powerful character that can mop the floor against opponents, doesn’t make any difference, the level and intensity of enemies' combat encounters stays basically the same level as your protagonist's, thru-out the entire game, so…

Also, the conversation choices don't always seem to make sense if you're trying to play a standard good/bad character.

Hello!?This game also suffers from a major, IMHO, issue where all the female characters walk just like the male characters

The characters are fun, though not quite as engaging as in

The characters lacked depth

Also, the conversation choices don't always seem to make sense if you're trying to play a standard good/bad character.

Not as good as the originals, but the crisisms are overblown

It has some curious quest design issues that experienced game developers shouldn't have made that dull its shine, and the crew aren't as memorable as in previous games, but the story and environments are interesting and well-crafted, with gorgeous visuals and exciting well-tuned combat.

you go into the game knowing these things, you'll likely enjoy it as I did
