It's a good game... not sure why people wouldn't like it. |
Gameplaywise its solid (the most solid). Having played the trilogy multiple times, I can attest to that. That was never the problem.
But at least IMO from the ME series, following two, that should have been a given.
There's more to a videogame than just gameplay, and there is even more to gameplay than just gameplay, and the part they honed since game 1 is what they fucked up in game 3. I love the game but I completely understand the dislike, and actively dissassociated the crappier portions of the game from the whole.
I mean I hate to bring up undertale again, but Jesus...that Indie game did Morality, Choice, and Endings orders of Magnitude better than Mass Effect 3 did. I used to think creating that much content was unrealistic but one guy, his friends, and a kickstarter did it, why couldn't Bioware?
There isn't really an excuse from that standpoint. ME1 and ME2 also changed drastically based on how you played it, and the endings were more varied as well.

A bit off topic, but can you tell me about undertale? I know I can read reviews, but I heard that it's best to play it with as little info as possible, and I'm worried about spoilers.

It is in fact best to go in without expectations. Playwise, its a mix of earthbound, touhou, and paper mario. The beginning is a bit slow, but its worth it in my opinion. Choice and Expectaction are extremely important, so important that even giving you any more gameplay details would spoil it considerably. Also pay attention because the attention to detail is insane. The jokes can also run a bit long, but its all in good fun and its never obnoxious.
As long as you aren't in a rush and let it immerse you (and don't have a problem with not 2D gfx), you'll be fine.
Undertale RED is a great fan made game that gives you a good feel for the main game, although it might have some spoilers, but not really more than a trailer would tell you.
It's also free.

One more thing, watching it is ok, but you really have to play it to truly enjoy it.
