I don't think you have to worry about it. The evolution of Mass Effect 2 was a culling of unnecessary elements and a tightening of core mechanics, since it already played like a shooter - just a very clunky one.

Dragon Age to the best of my knowledge doesn't play like an action game. If they do anything they'll probably just streamline the command input system so it's faster-paced.

That is actually false. ME1 played like an RPG with clunky shooter elements and ME2 completely ruined it. Good thing ME2 had the saving grace of sequel interoperability. As I say, too few armors to be a good RPG, too few guns to be a good shooter.

I'm not here to argue the merits or failings of Mass Effect 2. I'm pointing out that there was mechanical continuity whn it comes to the direction they took the series; there is no such continuity in turning Dragon Age into an action game. It's not likely to happen.
