The forum is struggling a little with multiple, 'I hate this game' / 'I love this game' threads. Expressing those views is, of course, fine, but multiple threads covering the same ground is obscuring other threads addressing specific aspects of the game.
So this thread is for general feedback along the lines of 'liking or loving' the game. That doesn't prevent, civil comment from those who disagree, but it sets the tone for the conversation.
Duplicate threads may be moved in here.

Hai Guyz,
I am new to the forum. I was worried about ME:A because it is the first Bioware game without David Gaider in the credits. However, so far I think it is a pretty decent game. The whole pathfinder thing is a tad cliche, and I hate how I have to empty half a round into a Kett in order to kill it. I did however laugh at the pyjack that can't be fed after 2359(Gremlins reference for those born after 1990).

Let's see... 46 hours since the Korean release time. Nope, I'd say I like it just fine.

Was David Gaider ever in Mass Effect credits?
I don't have the game yet. if I did I'm sure I'd find something about it I liked, even if there are things I don't.

I love it! I was actually disgusted by the poor reviews because I sure as heck don't see anything wrong. It's a game. A game you have fun with. It's not a movie or a shooter with no story and high-end graphics with forgettable characters. It's an adventure, a romance, a comedy and a journey with an amazing team and I can't wait to play it again when I beat it!

But seriously, it is a good game despite the flaws. although, CC needs to be fixed.

It's flawed, but I'm still having fun. Something I don't always have with critically acclaimed and highly rated games. I will say that I see some of the complaints as fully justified, it would be nice if some of the better aspects were acknowledged though.

I'm enjoying it. There are a few things that annoy me, but nothing even close to game breaking like all the doomsayers are shouting about out there. I think it's fun, I like the story and characters, and the gameplay is just fine.

My issues thus far are the CC, lack of companion customization, and lack of power wheel, one of which will hopefully be patched later on and the later is a very deliberate stylistic and gameplay choice. There's no denying; MEA is a very different feeling game than the Trilogy, kind of like a show or movie spin-off. Is that a good or a bad thing? It'll depend on the person, but I personally am having a halova lot of fun with it. It's not the best thing Bioware's ever done (I usually see KotOR and ME2 tied for that position), but it is nowhere near the worst, or the "garbage fire" some commenters are claiming it to be.

I like it. I just don't like my purchase of it. As in I don't think it was worth my (boyfriend's - a gift) money. But sure, updates will determine more. But sadly compared to the rest of ME (besides the addressing the ME3 ending they did), I may require major updates. But I like it and this game so far hasn't kept me from being interested in future Mass Effect products. But that's just it. Intrested. Once upon a time I actually felt hype I think it deserves at least every 7/10 it got. Which isn't terrible. But disappointing for any AAA game to get. (Not saying I'm not okay with 8/10s.) BRB gonna explore Eos.

22 hours in and i love it, a tad overwhelmed and having an OCD meltdown by all the quests, but I love it, also I made a widow that fires sticky grenades.

Like a lot of people I'm immensely enjoying the game. There are design changes from the original trilogy I don't like, but it's nothing that ruins the game for me. So far, after 26 hrs, the story and game play have been extremely satisfying.

Its a fun game. It will give me many hours of entertainment playing both SP and MP. Not perfect but definately worth the cost.

You're not the only one. I'm over 20 hours deep now and I'm having tons of fun with it. Animations are still crappy as hell but that's really the only problem the game has. Everything else is pretty much amazing.
And performance. But I'm getting a better gpu for that too. The game is very resource intensive tough, I'm not sure if they can patch to get better. Maybe, I think they could improve the stuttering in urban areas and indoors, it's really weird.

It's a nice little space game. Haven't fought any of the really bad bosses yet,so the combat has been o.k. Ony draw backs to me are: No save priority missions . CC is garbage . Animation .

You're not, I like it a lot so far despite its obvious shortcomings. I already prefer it to ME1, time to tell if it will beat ME3 (possible) and ME2 (unlikely) in my eyes.

It's going to have to mess up big time ( ME3 ending ) for this to not be my favorite Bioware game. 16hrs and absolutely loving it.

I like it, it's much less focused and narrow than the trilogy, so it takes some getting used to. Also, the stakes seem much lower so you're kind of more a wanderer/explorer here so it feels a lot different. Also, not being able to pause combat to issue orders is a huge change. I much preferred the combat of the previous games and find myself dying much more this time around since everything is real time.
It's engaging enough to keep me interested and a tad bit excited. Yeah, so much to do it's overwhelming, in comparison to the other games.

No, and boy-oh-boy, the sidequests are actually good. Greatest fear erased. Also, nothing like wiping a Kett "Fortress" on Eos.

Ignore the metacritic user reviews.
95% of those hadn't even played it and we're rating it a 0 minutes after the game released.
This game is great. I'm having a blast with it and the issues are greatly over exaggerated.
