The MP Made the base game stray? I think the movement to more 3rd person shooter focus started with ME2. I hope they can balance out super-smooth combat with good RPG elements for ME4.
it strayed cause all those complain aren't into shooter or action games they like RPG in the traditional sense where it's turn base style or similar
I see those that complain about this so often.
It's just that they don't realize it was made for a different audience other the their own tastes.
but they're too busy thinking about their own personal taste it's like other people that have slightly different tastes don't exist.
all RPG's(or games) must revolve around what they like alone which makes for alot of close minded talk from those people sadly. it probably didn't help that start out with you always giving command to your AI team at all times cause this are mirco managed obsessed people.
when they(dev's or publishers) give both( it means you can play the way you always have with out worry ) with the "play how you want to play it ." But those still complaining already made up their minds that
there should be only one way alone.
They still have what they want, but missed this part .
The word "
option" it's too much of a foreign , alien concept of word or it's not in their vocabulary.
All they want to hear it's this better be the way I want it only. cause they do't want see some playing differently from the way they play it. sadly .
yes there are people like this & they do indeed say that.
