The intro of MEA did, that was short lived as they changed the feels to a comedy routine pretty early on. It's pretty fixable I think as the setting at its core is kind of dark, they just for some odd reason had characters yucking it up constantly. Aptly put.
I kinda like the shtick. It's mostly well done in MEA. But there's a time and a place, bioware.
Yeah, I think you are right there. I like a lot of it, but it was placed weirdly. Like Liams loyalty mission, I really enjoyed it but it was at odds with the themes they were presenting in the mission, supposedly a super secret nexus info was in danger and pretty dark evil bad guys were in play(I think slavers but I can't remember) and it was all jokey. Like I think that would have worked with a different background story for why you were there and who the enemy was. Personally I never understood what the big deal was with what Liam leaked, by the time I had done the mission we already had angara visitors on the nexus, the exiles know where you are and aren't really assumed loyal, so I'm like the secret is out. But story wise they imply it is a big secret so I assume maybe stupid levels of precautions were done or he revealed more than they tell you. They tell you super big risk, really bad guys and then its all comedy. A lot of the story is like that. Vetra the story is again fairly serious, but the focus is all about Vetra and whether or not she is over protective. Fairly well done light hearted story but in the wrong place. If you had been smugglers or something and not the pathfinder I think the writing would have fit perfectly.

I didn't even expect Anthem to have dialogue choices at all, so the fact that it has two is a pleasant surprise considering it's not an RPG.
