I hope the quests are still of high quality and the game is not all open world with 100s of sidequests. I want that really solid 30-40hr Mass Effect experience. I'm fine with the worlds being more explorable but hopefully they don't go overboard. I also hope for a smaller scale and more intimate story. Lastly, if this is a new galaxy, why does it have all the same races? Shouldn't thetre be all new and different races? Unless the Mass Effects linked to other galaxies but why didn't the reapers then attack other galaxies or everyone from the other Mass Effect games could've just went to another galaxy and let the Reapers have that galaxy?
Combat has no baring on whether a game is an RPG or not. An RPG could have completely stat-based, turned-based combat or full-on real-time action combat, neither side of the spectrum makes a game more RPG than the other. Mass Effect is one of the few games where you actually spend the most of you game time role-playing, that's what makes it an RPG. The problem with most RPGs is the focus on combat and the combat is usually shit thus making for a not so enjoyable game. I shouldn't be spending most of my time fighting in an RPG because it then is no longer an RPG and is instead a combat focused game. And other combat focused games that aren't pretending to be RPGs have better combat so I'm really just suffering through worse gameplay with most RPGs.Quellist said:Looks like it went full shooter I remember when Mass Effect was an RPG
