The eyecandy was pretty good during dialogs, and that's pretty much it. Don't even let me start talking about driving or combat.. interesting boss fights? not in this game.

This is an RPG like STALKER was an RPG and Tomb Raider was an RPG! I think not! As soon as you get into that vehicle and start having to fight you know absolutely this is no RPG! When, as an RPG gamer rather than FPS one, I can play this game on 'casual combat' and 'maximum weapon aiming help' and still get fritzed in 2 mins tells me this is no RPG. When I see options to automate all the stats and levelling up taking away all the RPG elements, I know it's not an RPG, and when I see that there are no storylines to help my character avoid most, if not all the combat, I know it;s not an RPG! If we can have 'action adventures' we can sure as hell have 'action RPG's' and the action part of Bioware games are getting bigger and bigger! In a couple years, at this rate, Bioware will be releasing only shoot-em-up's, albeit with great background stories! More like 7 if you’re scoring it as an RPG!
