Bioware designs RPGs. If you don't happen to like those, then don't play them. An RPG experience is different than those of an action title. Just because the FPS in Mass Effect 2 is getting decent, doesn't make it an FPS.

I can't see how picking up ammo, aiming for the head, and waiting in cover for blood to fall of my monitor are part of an RPG experience. 

It IS a shooter. 

There are some RPG elements, sometimes, between two action scenes, like character creation, morality options, and dialogue choices, similar to many other shooters, adventure games, RTS games, but the metagame still revolves around shooting stuff.
