    My bad then.

    I believe mine was around 50-60ish. Most of that time was spent hunting down side quests and being utterly confused as to what to do or what choices I should make. And save-scumming. Lots of save-scumming.
    That may be it then. I normally restrict myself to main-plot and all companion quests, simply because i tend to 'get lost' and lose interest if i try to hunt down everything. I also tend to ignore DLC on subsequent play throughs.. except for Shale. Loves me that Shale.

    - Mass Effect dialogue wheel and voice acting was an improvement and so far, it seems to be the same about of choices.
    Combat feels really fun as do some of the bigger boss battles. The Deep Roads has to be my favorite thus far in terms of boss movement, positioning and tactics. Really, it reminds me of running raids in WoW. Telling people to not stand in fire and then starring at disbelief when they do anyway. Can't count the times i've muttered a variety of curses towards Anders. Always finding ways to stand where he shouldn't...

    As for the wheel system it has for the most part been a change I like, but I am really hating party interaction. Without spoiling too much my party doesnt feel like my team, like they did in Origins. They just feel like friends who hang around and get into trouble with me from time to time. It makes sense, i guess, since we're not out to save the world - but I'd be lying if i said i didn't miss feeling like The A Team.
