Review title of I is Madz It's so so, but it's not Mass Effect

To start off on a good note, the game play is fine. Not great, but kinda acceptable. But this game is not Mass Effect. The story feels like something you would scrape off the bottom of your shoe and is downright painful to play through. As someone who played though ME 1-3 many times without chance of becoming bored, I struggled to play though this game when I first got it. The characters are dryer than my love life, the faces are something you would want to drown in holy water, and the hollow "Conversations" you have with them helps build a burning hatred to those on your ship rather than a emotional attachment. Cut scences are in a form of itself torture. But The sad bit is, 2 of the 9+ romances have a cut scene that are 10 times better than the rest of the game. With real effort put into them. I waited for another mass effect game to live up to the other ones for so long. This is not that game.
