I don´t kow if this has already been discussed so i´ll just start typing. The Mass Effect series gives you emotion moments like...yeah like what? i don´t know any other game which does that, but ME gives you emotions like hell. Halo did that too but in another way there should be a bit more romance like in ME. I don´t think about a girl you can marry which walks with you or something that would be stupid like the silent followers in Skyrim or Fallout ([u]i only mean how they brought it in the game could be more attached to the story[/u]). In Halo you were the cool supersoldier that completes his mission and -blam!-ed those alien bastards into the nowhere. In Mass Effect you were a cool human which could make descions in the game which where -blam!-ing cool and gave you a feeling of being some god. So I´ll explain it in an example: You completed several tasks and know some people now. With interaction or descions you made, you can choose them as the character which speaks in some popup at the HUD when there are updates about mission etc. There should be diffrent Characters like: A kind of Sergant Johnson who makes much military jokes, a kind of Cortana that makes u feel like the man in law, a kind of Psycho,Arrogant,Homo,Nerd what the -blam!- ever that would make the game come more alive. I´m waiting for comments :)
