Features You'd Trim Off in Future Games

The three-power limit. Four should be an absolute minimum, and five would be best.

The zoom in camera for conversations. Even a simple cut back /forth frontal cutscene is preferable.

Also one of the reasons why Mass Effect 2 is hardly an RPG. Everything got streamlined or cut out. That's fine but it became a linear action shooter with dialogue trees

You're talking about mechanisms that are often associated with RPGs. They're nothing to do with role playing themselves. Linearity and lack of choices is what makes a shooter instead of an RPG. An RPG needs enough choices and decisions, whether they're gear or plot or whatever, to shape your character, or at least believe you've got some agency with your character. It doesn't need levelling and grinding, or at least they're covered by the "game" part and not the "role playing" one.

While it did work better in ME:A than dragon age but I can't wait for this open world thing to pass. Also I would love a return to the ME1 style of getting back on the ship doesn't mean I need to leave the planet, less loading screens the better or least make them shorter.

No more oh holds for loyalty stuff. Trim all of that insanity right off the bat. 

remove landing/take off of tempest until you actually use the map to go somewhere. Too many cutscenes for that nonsense. Eos is bugged too so I am there on foot, then dragged into a cutscene of the tempest landing, then on foot again and usually some kind of weird pause mixed in there for good measure.

Remove profile cooldowns.

Simplify crafting. I like that we have it but I feel like we should have more research points coming in and the menu is cumbersome as all hell.

Extremely large maps with nothing on them. Make them a reasonable size (looking at you Elaaden) and get rid of the love affair with pointy mountains everywhere (looking  at you Kadara). You want pointy mountains, fine. Just don't make it the whole bloody map. It's dickish.

Needing to upgrade the nomad for basic driving stuff like thrust, boost. If they are going to put things at the top of steep inclines on an early map then the nomad should be instantly capable of doing that upon arrival else it makes the dev team look like dicks.

All superfluous SAM chatter. And  I mean ALL of it. I don't want that AI saying one damn word that doesn't absolutely have to be there unless there is  an option to tell him to pls be quiet that makes him never say that thing again (kind of like how you tell him to just say we need codes upon arrival on Eos).

The multiplayer.

If they keep crafting then they need to do something about the fact that we have access to all blueprints automatically at certain levels. It utterly kills looting because the only thing you actually need to find is augmentations.

The multiplayer is their little baby cash cow. Since it doesn't really impact SP it's worth keeping because it assures they will bring us more games. And I don't think it impacts SP budget at all.

And it isn't required or impacts the actual SP campaign at all. I haven't touched MP yet, and strike teams ensure that not doing MP doesn't take away from SP. That's an improvement over ME3.

If other people enjoy MP, I don't see the harm in it or the point in taking that away from them.

actually to be honest multiplayer dose impact single player. it takes time, manpower, and resources from single player development to create multiplayer.

as for me i would love to have more ability slots available. you give us all the abilitys and yet we can only have access to 3 at any given time? that makes no sense.

Profiles are fun but for the love of god get rid of the CD. it was advertised as a system that lets you adjust to the situation immediately not 10 seconds later after it finishes a CD.
