They've aged like milk
1
>is filled with missions where you have to spend minutes crossing baren planets with occasional thresher maws thrown in>Gun play is terrible in 1 >Biotic powers don't lock on enemies and don't penetrate cover>Side quests have to going to copypasted planets to go into copypasted buildings and kill copypasted enemies2
>Biotic powers can't be used against enemies with anything that isn't a straight health bar>On higher difficulties all enemies have shields and armor and barriers >Every gun that isn't the collector AR might as well be useless. >Takes ages to scan planets for minerals>Most squad mates have 2 lines of dialogue before they throw you on a loyalty mission>Michael Jackson looking secondary character>Takes forever to fly within galaxies >Most of your credits are spent on fuel and probes>Lair of the shadow broker is more entertaining than the main story>Half of the cast is inconsequential and can't even be recruited in the next entry>Few quests carry over outside of occasional email about it>Can't interact with dlc characters outside of clicking on objects in their room>Coolest character in the game can't be recruited until 80% of the way throughThey're kinda shit.
