Review in progress:
Solid storytelling paired with underwhelming third-person shooter gameplay and dumbed-down RPG elements. The gameplay is an improvement over Mass Effect 1 but still leaves a lot to be desired. I wish there were alternatives to combat to handle some of the situations (e.g., diplomacy). Instead, you have to shoot down endless waves of brain-dead enemies every time.
