I feel like this game is going to bust. No vehicles first off, and now this lists. All it is is side quests to complete to be able to stop the reapers, not defeat, just stop their invasion. I'm just worried that the game will have a shortened storyline and be mainly focused around sidequests.
ME1 was very good at balancing sidequests and the main storyline, though the sidequests revolved around driving on planets for hours, it still had a good storyline to mix it up. ME2 was like, here's a list of chores, do them. There was no real defining main quest aside from Horizon, Collector Ship, Reaper Ship, and the suicide mission. Collecting all the squadmates and getting their loyalty was for ****s and giggles basically.
I'm afraid ME3 will have the same thing, no defineing main quest. Just a bunch of simple tasks and then two or three missions dealing with the actual invasion. Granted each quests deals with the invasion, but what I'm trying to say is the actual fight against the reapers. The whole picture at once, not little sections, if anyone catches my drift.
