Do any of you think mass effect is really boring?

Give it a chance. It does start off really slowly, especially all that back and forth crap in the Citadel, but soon after it really picks up. If you're expecting it to be a 3rd person shooter, its not. Its an RPG first and foremost, but the shooting elements were well done in my opinion. The game is really great for the story, minor exploration, combat (gets better as the game goes on), and characters. I really felt a connection to the characters and some of the decisions you make have a big impact...or shall I say Mass Effect.

I've played through it 3 times and yes at this point it is kind of dull.

The main reason is that I can't skip dialogue. I would really like to since I already know the story.

As long as it is not a cut-scene, you can skip through the dialogue by pressing 'X'

He is right, give it a chance, I started just like you with the difference that I wasn't sure if I should buy it or not, so I went with the smartest decision, I rented it and let me tell you, at first I was exactly like you TC, "Man, thank God I didn't buy this game, it sucks, it's too slow, I thought it was an RPG game and it turns out to be another shooter" but then I started playing it more and more and once you finish all that stuff in the Citadel that's when things become great!!! I now love this game and couldn't wait to return it, I just went and bought it!

I've never gotten bored of it and I've played it 5 times through.grunt1096

:shock: 5 times through......damn

I like the game but playing it over and over again makes it boring. I kind of think it's boring but not too much.
