I love the Mass Effect series. Obviously the combat pales in comparison to a modern WRPG like Deus Ex Human Revolution and its vast range of play style choice. However, you play these games to be moved.
The writing and the acting and the pacing and the settings and the themes - it's a very satisfying choose-your-own-adventure type of series that surpasses similar ambitious projects like Heavy Rain and one of the few games that will make you choke up.
I don't give a shit about this ending controversy. As long as more games of this ilk appealing to audiences who want interactive story development are being made then I'm a happy camper. Rockin' and a rollin'.
