I absolutely agree.with you Gary. I know this is a long time past and they have their third games out, but I would have to side with dragon age as well. I loved all the humor in dragon age and how friendships/relationships felt earned. I loved that my companions could hate me and outright turn against me and had opinions of their own. Sure mass effect had characters with varying opinions, but they were always swayed by my argument of your wrong I’m right. Don’t get me wrong, I love some of the characters like Jack, Thane, and Kisume, but I felt everyone loved me and everything I did… Besides the council. I also liked the speech options better because I could be humorous, nice, upset without being labeled good or evil, I was just me and that felt more human to me than paragon /renegade points. I loved the character development in me2, but I hated that I didn’t feel right giving my opinion when two argued, even if I really wanted to because I didn’t not feel like their rudeness deserved a death sentence. The people come in dedicated to the cause, but because I called them out on being a jerk they just keel over because they weren’t committed enough? I caused them to think “wow, Shepard disagreed with me?” During a life or death situation, getting their head out of the game.

I also agree that I could relate to the story better, just as you put it, the situations felt more real, and I agree it felt more mature to me too.

Don’t get me wrong, mass effect did plenty right, and there were scenarios where I felt exhilarated by the intense battle, and upset yet wowed by other events. I like the game. I just prefer dragon age, it felt more real to me.
