If you seriously thought that all of the characters in ME 2 were bad and you did not feel a conneciton to them, then my friend I suggest you play a mindless game in which the storyline and characters do not matter. You say they have no connection to the main story, well then you are wrong, Cereberus are the part of the main plot in ME 3 and many ME 2 characters are involved with Cereberus in some way Jack, Miranda, Jacob and EDI. Grunt is the perfect Krogan represents the future of the Krogan, Legion represents the part of Geth who don't oppose the organics. All these characters assist with the Final Battle and the crucible. You are saying all these characters are not main and just side characters? I have never felt a connection to any characters in a video game as much as I did with Mass Effect 2, I was tearing up when one of my favorites died in the suicide mission and in ME 3 as well. You know why? Because I was not nitpicking problems about how Bioware screwed up and how could they have done this better. Also If you think any of those characters are poor then I am sorry to say you don't know what a good character is. You also fail to see the main point, the replacement for the Rachini queen is a Reaper's creation in ME 3 and it will turn on you, but the real Rachini Queen will support you. Also Wreav wants to avenge the genophage and Wrex doesn't, if the Genophage is cured in Wrex's leadership then the chances of a Rebellion are slim, also the characters who died in Mass Effect 2 or 1 do not appear in 3 at all or are replaced they are small differences, but they are differences affected directly by your choice in the previous game, are you just overlooking them for the sake of hating on Bioware?
