Let me tell you what I tell everyone that complains about the animations in ME:A (and that is these are THE ONLY reason those people don't buy/play the game)

Now I'm not saying you personally are like those people, but it seriously gets on my nerve everytime someone says "OMG IT'S SO BAD BECAUSE THE ANIMATIONS ARE BAD!" (exegeration - I hope you get my point)

"The game is still fun, and the Story is great!

Remember the times when the characters were just a bunch of pixels without much animation, and we still had fun with these games?

If animation quality is your biggest concern about a game... you seriously have to re-think your priorities in gaming!

Also glitches and Bugs happen! Show me ONE SINGLE game without any bugs or glitches!"

I don't think that is fair to say, to say. From what I see and remember mass effect went down in quality of the faces but even if it weren't. In the past games had indeed bad animations but I feel there are some nuances. Characters which were a bunch of pixels could still be aesthetically pleasing and animations were still done with care to portray what needed to be portrayed. So they could do well with limmitted tools. Mass effect can not do what it intends to with its tools. Now If you use a tool then you should do it properly  no excuses. 

Also indeed games are more then just animations, but mass effect is an rpg (last time I checked at least). So immersion is key, crappy animations can ruin this immersion. So I think there is valid reasoning to decline on animations alone.

Also bugs and glitches have become more frequent over the years ,rightfully so, but the nonchalance of the industry about it bothers me like no other. Meh, we'll just patch bugs when we find them, gotta push product faster.
