If you enjoyed Dragon Age Inquistion you will love MEA as well Yeah if they liked DAI then they'll enjoy this as it is a very similar type of game.

If you enjoyed Dragon Age Inquistion you will love MEA as well Ummm, no. I loved DA:I. It has its issues and the main arc is pretty generic but the characters and many of the quests are superb. ME:A, on the other hand was just bland, formulaic pap. Not terrible, but nothing special I agree, I didn't like DAI but even I'll admit it had it's moments. The Templar quest, Barris, Abernache, Wicked Eyes, Dorian, Cullen, Cassandra, Calpernia, Solas etc. It had some good characters. The only thing that was terrible was the fetch quests, the main plot with a terrible villain, and bland main character that didn't start getting good until Trespasser. MEA does not have the same memorable cast or highlights in its quests.

I remember playing it for about 30 minutes on day 1. The hype was real, as the Mass Effect trilogy include my favorite games of all time. I was so shocked and disappointed with the animations, voice acting, and general presentation that tearfully I refunded it that day. A while later, I was using greenmangaming.com to buy random loot packs, and I got ME:A out of one for like $5. My initial disappointment has kept me from even re-downloading it, but at almost 10 months after release, I would like to know if it's worth it to play it now. Like I said before, I'm huge into the ME trilogy; I thought the entire idea was awesome and the story enthralling, with a great cast of characters to interact with, characters that I actually cared about. That being said, is this even worth the time and bandwidth investment to redownload, or should I skip this altogether and just go back to the original trilogy? Thanks. Yep, just don't go in expecting MET and ignore most of the side crap. The combat is fun and accommodates any playstyle. Aside from the main story (which isn't very long so be careful not burn through it too fast,) focus on activating vaults to stabilize worlds and establish settlements, finding lost arks, and companion quests (Drack is awesome.) As far as crafting and upgrades mostly just focus on the Nomad (because otherwise it's damned near unusable.) It has a few remaining bugs, but nothing game killing. It's imperfect but I still consider it vastly superior to, well, any Bethesda game ever made (of course that ultimately depends what your after in a gaming experience). Exactly, MEA tends to look bad in terms of story if you're the completionist kind of player. If you follow the story and companion quests as they arrive, it's ok. What almost killed my first playthrough is that every time I set foot on a planet, I couldn't leave before everything on it was done. By that time, I had completely forgot about the main story.
