User blog comment:Legionwrex/Comparing the Mass Effect Trilogy!/@comment-4950455-20120921044159

I'm a bit all blogged out lately, but this was an interesting read, and fits some with the plans I have for a review of ME3. Some of your specific conclusions (like the original Mass Effect's biggest problems being gameplay-related) are actually things I remember mentioning when I drew up a list of each game's pros and cons a while back.

One thing that I disagreed with, though, is this part:

''Many missing side characters from the first and second games who didn't appear in 3 at all. ''

Many characters from previous games were reduced to mere bit parts or War Assets, but almost all of them did appear (or at the very least were referenced) in ME3.
