This is the best Trope to describe Mass Effect 3.

I love that trope.
Ugh. That website. Where people go so that they can distill an idea from something they saw into a label, so they can sound "intelligent" when they get pissed off when they see something remotely similar in the future. Not attacking you personally for posting it, just that I've seen far too many individuals referring to that recently since they can't be bothered to enjoy things that have "been done before".
You have the wrong idea about this site entirely. Tropes are celebrations about recurring themes and idea's within various mediums.
What you are reffering to are cliche's, which TV tropes barely touches on.
From the site...
"
Human beings are natural pattern seekers and story tellers. We use stories to convey truths, examine ideas, speculate on the future and discuss consequences. To do this, we must have a basis for our discussion, a new language to show us what we are looking at today. So our storytellers use tropes to let us know what things about reality we should put aside and what parts of fiction we should take up. "
Again on the same page.
"Tropes Are Not BadThere is one thing that you must keep in mind to retain your sanity here, and that is that including a trope in a particular work does not make it "
ruined[/i]." Not even
those[/i] tropes.If your favorite shows have long lists of tropes associated with them, well, so do everybody's. A show featuring an
Action Girl or showing a character
kicking the dog is not a bad thing; the former is merely a reasonable type of character (badass character who is female) and the latter is a character action that happens plenty in
Real Life. "
