In the end the final product and the mediocre reviews pretty much justifies the quality reflected in this game. I spend 100s of hours in this game, but can't feel let down on the story. I mean bloody hell I agree with a majority of the reviewers scores offering a mediocre score. It's how I felt about the experience. Sigh, Mass Effect 3 ending all over again but with Bungie this time. Maybe they should hire better writers.
