I'm curious about other players RPG styles in general, and in ME.
RPG "essentials" for my play style include:_character looks and clothing, character background, open world designs, and a lot of ways to buy and sell goods-- clothing, minerals etc.__________.
These help me get into the character and game and help me make character actions be "sensible". (at least in my mind) Please understand ... I love ME and ME2. this isn't a rant. Also I am fairly new to the RPG genre so I have limited experience.
WARNING: wall of text follows -- expands on the above. read or not at your discretion.

To me, role play is all about my character and his/her interaction with others in the universe. Combat, decisions, conversations Para/renegade interrupts etc are all "decided" depending on my characters looks, skills, viewpoints etc. Various characters I've created for ME have been as varied as
- outrageous flirt/ladies man
- stoic, self-righteous
- Alliance soldier to the core
- insubordinate/irreverent
- tolerant/intolerant of other species/slavery and slavers etc.
Secondly I really like open world designs rather than linear, so I can go anywhere and do anything at any time. The world/ universe needs a functional economy where my character can both buy and sell items collected.
Details:
Character creation: My goal is to create a unique character that "fits" the universe and their back-story.
-- Appearance: I spend a lot of time getting my character to look exactly how I want them to look. This includes gender, hair styles, body types , and clothing/armor(hint to BioWare). The best creation system I have seen is from Tiger Woods golf (I know - NOT RPG I mean the creation part), with Oblivion coming in a close second (unrestricted talent and skill selections - sort of -).
-- Character back-story/motivations/psych profiles. The spacer, colonist, earthborn + sole survivor, war hero, ruthless choices are just the start point for me. I like to expand upon the choice set I make with a short biography I write down. I try to give each character a fitting life motto.
Examples: "Not on MY watch you SOB" and
"A girl can handle anything the galaxy throws at her with the right make-up and a Widow sniper rifle".
-- Shopping!! for some reason I like to go shopping... not just for upgrades. In ME I wish they had clothing shops and armourers. (and a way to sell minerals). And ... Sharlize Shepard needs new shoes! and TATTS, and Jewelry and a space hamster (oh, got that one)
I will stop now ...
Your turn.
