Because this is a Mass Effect game, story is a critical element. The story in Mass Effect Galaxy is pushed along through a series of conversations Jacob has with other denizens of the Citadel. There are no spider-like dialog trees. Instead, Jacob usually has two different responses to each branch in a conversation. The different responses are selected from a movable menu along the right side of the screen. You just scroll through it by sliding your finger up and down the screen.
Now, is this the Mass Effect game that fans are hoping for? It depends on expectations. If you go into Galaxy looking for a deep RPG like the one you played through four times to get all of the achievements, you may be disappointed. This is most certainly an action game -- and it comes across as a pretty arcade-like action game at that. So, do yourself a big favor and adjust those hopes.
