Mass Effect 2 and 3 were some of the best games of the last-gen.
Ending aside for 3, (which was still fixed) it was the best of the trilogy. It blended elements of 1 and 3 together to make the perfect Action-RPG.
The thing is Mass Effect is all about the adventure, Mass Effect 1 was fairly mediocre, I hate when people say the games got progressively worse. I say this as one of the biggest Mass Effect fans. Mass Effect 2 had a basic story elevated by it's characters, story moments, etc. It's one of the best stories out there. The gameplay has a more action approach to it, but that's completely fine.
However, Mass Effect 2 had one of the best story moments and that's the Collector Base Approach along with the actual suicide mission, feeling as if your choices actually had an impact.
Andromeda is what Mass Effect 1 should have been. I think it was good for what it was, however, if it didn't have the Mass Effect name attached to it, it would have been one of the best games of the year.
ME3's story got a little too... Soapy, if that makes sense. And if you were playing Paragon then Shepard would get veeery Mary Sue/Gary Stu-ish at points. ---
