The gameplay, story, and characters are all very well developed in this game. Cover mechanics, skill trees, and weapon finds/ armor customizations are all elements I look for in a game and this one has all of it.

The story is very immersive and the environments are all very well developed. It is cool to go running through space with your crew knowing that all the decisions you make in the game will effect the outcome and that one slip up might mean drastic consequences at the end.

All in all it is the camaraderie between you and your crew that makes this game great. Yes the squad combat is fun and innovative, yes the customizations allow you to tailor your character to your play style, yes you will care about the outcome of the universe and you will most likely play through the game more than once.
