Is it just me, i thought mass effect 1 was way better than mass effect 2. ME2 felt too focused on the shooter element while ME1 gave me that old KOTOR rpg feel(i play adapt of course). It also felt as they limited powers per character too much like samara in ME2, she was this biotic power house but only had throw and pull i was like WTF. After playing the demo i see liara and shepard have alot of botic options which gives me hope tali will have overload and dampering again instead of just drone and ai hack. Sorry went off on a rant, just replayed both games preparing for ME3.

I feel the same way, and this demo did nothing to convince me otherwise. I like exploration, diplomacy, solving puzzles and mysteries. All the demo showed was 2 long corridor sections with a lot of combat with some cut scenes in between with only few minor dialog choices that have no impact at all.
At least the ME2 demo had you explore a space station for a while and allowed you to talk to some people before the long corridor section. This demo could have just as well been a demo for Halo 4.

The ME2 demo had no exploring whatsoever, you are remembering incorrectly. More, it had only slightly more conversation than ME3's demo did - the only character you spoke to for any length of time was Jacob at the start and Miranda near the end, and neither of them involve any dialogue choices that can actually affect anything.

In terms of content, the ME3 demo is about on par with the ME2 demo, just that the ME2 demo had somewhat more talking with a little more interactivity.

Get excited about the character growth options in this game. Playing through Insanity is going to be a trip.
