And personally, I was just fine with that. In a different game things might be different, but unless the next ME game drastically downplays the importance of choice, then keep your well-characterized hero and give me another blank slate. What needs to be improved (at least as I see it) is giving the player more ways to develop the protagonist, not giving the protagonist set-in-stone development of their own.
