After playing ME1 and ME2 multiple times I was eagerly awaiting ME3.

First 3 hours of gameplay left me at dismay with mission structure. What I have been encountering is a simeple corridor shooter which spawns waves of enemies while main character sits in cover and shoots at them (uses powers) while all of the dialogue choices seemed non consequential at all but this is ME3 so I struggled on looking forward to a bright future.

That future presented itself when I finally was allowed to land on Citadel and actually discover quests on my own accord. That was fun. I enjoyed the hell out of it. After a few hours of questing I came to few realizations a) some of the quests were sending me on errands to the parts of galaxy that for some reason were not currently on my map... for reasons unknown some part of the map magically decided to reveal themselves only after completing some key mission unlocking once again without warning. Fine whatever I am willing to overlook that but after completing every sidequest in ME3 there is another snag I'd like to point all sidequests are exact copy paste of each other they follow exact pastern - go to citadel and walk around every nook and cranny to eavesdrop on quest givers after completing every key mission since quests magically unlock there and only there then go to Normandy and scan planets for useless crap that these quests require another variation involves defending a point or an pc from certain number of enemies or endless waves of enemies for a certain period of time ... if not for good voice acting and two excellent previous games this would be completely unbearable

Main story is mediocre and anticlimactic for most part. The only thing that was driving me was the wish to experience a climatic ending like developers managed to pull off in ME2 which made the game experience overall enjoyable. Unfortunately even thought there are 3 endings for some reason they all use 99% of the same footage material

All in all I would say that this is an RPG turned into another mediocre TPS with great voice acting mediocre story, some character leveling elements and pretty crappy controls along with combat when comparing it to any of the Gears of War, Binary Domain or Vanquish. Its not awful but nothing special imo and definite let down to this great franchise.
PS: down with pedophilia btw. stop showing unrelated to the game story and universe male children every chance you get. wtf
