I always thought it was like a samurai Shenmue, is that at all accurate?
It is more open. The game has like 20-25 different endings and story-paths.
In the game you arrive at this town first and depending what you do, you get another story. If you go to the police-station you might get another story-path than if you go to the mountain. It also has a time-system in place, so certain events only happen at certain times.
That is why a single playthrough isnt really that long (maybe 2-3 hours?), but after you played through it once, you just choose another story. It is what Mass Effect wants to be.
On another note: I bought the Talos DLC. Hope its good.
