    ditto.

    I am done with MP, and I am playing campaign on narrative mode just to recoup some value for my investment. I will never buy another BioWare or EA game on pre-order again.  I will wait at least a month after release to get the real reviews before I even consider a game.

    Super-Deluxe was a complete ripoff.

    So sad when a company squanders its good reputation.

Well if you look at ME1-3, I think it's a fair statement that ME:A offers more content on release especially. Maybe ME1 is a close call but my playthroughs on ME2 and ME3 are definitely shorter than in ME:A.

I think they just wanted to add something more because that's what people are asking but didn't have the time or resources to commit to doing something better. That's just my guess. So is it filler or are they side quests? People will have different opinions on that. I've found that some of these quests actually give some more background that makes it certainly more than just filler, like finding out that only so many people can live on Aya and because of the Milky Way presence some Angara had to leave. That certainly made it more than just filler.

And sure some of the quests are very standard fare, but is it really that bad I wonder?

The Planet scanning one wasn't bad on the first playthrough cause there's always a hope that you can find a planet or an encounter, much like ME2, scan a planet and found a blue suns base and attack it.  On the 2nd playthrough I kinda know that's not happening in MEA.  And at that time before the patch it was just painful to scan the planets without the ability to skip the animations.  That to me was just horrible, so I did the minimum 50 planets and skip the rest.  The little mouse quest, did any of you complete it?  In all my playthroughs I never did!  Hey I tried lol...  the dead bodies one the rokkar manifestos one, as painful as there were I completed them in at least 1 of my playthroughs, the little mouse one, after everything SAM said nav point is updated but I never saw it on my map...  Is it bugged?  Will probably try it again if it is not.
