I played Mass Effect back when it came out, Enjoyed it, Loved it, Finished it a few times with 100% achievements. Put it down and moved on. Mass Effect 2 will be the same for me if I even play it. But in all honesty the longevity of single player RPG's is tiresome.
Look at all the hype around Dragon Age, but now no one will even mention it unless randomly raised, Mass Effect one went under the radar as a great game but thats it, not a continuously enjoyable game once completed.
I'm sure Mass Effect 2 will be great, but its a bubble gum game, full of flavour but the more you chew it eventually the flavour fades.
What people want is a permanently expansive RPG which MMO's tend to deliver.
My analysis, ME2 will be good, but not good enough to keep anyone playing it more than a couple of months.
A great RPG game can make you play it years later, i.e Final Fantasy 7/8/9.
KOTOR is still a favourite of mine and actually I find alot better than Mass Effect before I can go back and play it now and enjoy is just the same, But once ME was finished the game lacked lustre.
