ROFL, I'm on a totally opposite side here. I found Hawke very bland and uninteresting and I was unable to identify, or become at least mildly interested, in her, and the feature of giving personality to auto-dialogue I HATED, because there were quite a couple of instances wheer I'd never have picked the sarcastic option. On the other hand, Shepard - there's something in the way he moves, to paraphrase :-), and for me, becoming a Shepshipper was a matter of a few minutes. The voice acting was splendid, IMHO, and further contributed to immersion; otherwise, I can't really put my finger on what it is that makes a difference for me. I do agree that it is a pity Shepard's background was not reflected more (BTW, Sole Survivor gives you that epic failure on Shepard's part for the start), especially the Spacer's relationship with his mother is terribly underdone.
