There is 100,000 colonists spilt along 4 major races with just over 1000 krogans(and 2 batarians with multiplayer canon) rounding things out. And the day one plan was to colonise 4 planets and have the Nexus. So that's 20,000 in each major hub. That's the in setting grand goal, 5 towns with a 6th town coming later. The original plan seemed to be species segregated but the modified in game plan seems to just spilt everything equal among the races. So with Meridian, the 4 other planets and the Nexus and accounting for losses in game and people asteroid and helium mining(and minor outposts on angaran planets) you are looking at less than 3500 per race per place. So about an ocean cruise ship worth of humans per place. So everywhere is going to be depressing as hell, every kid is going to grow up without even the concept of a city to run away to. If they wanted to unepic Mass Effect then they have 100% succeeded.

Dont forget the Quarians!

it makes sense, because you would definitely need a gun on your vehicle when exploring a mostly already explored galaxy; but in a brand new galaxy where you have no idea what each system might contain you would want zero guns....

wait...

what if the Nomad was lovely because it was a cheaper alternative to the Mako?

Like the team actually asked for Makos, but the Illusive Man was like "...those things ain't cheap! Give them the lovely jeeps that cant go up hills, I have a 25% off coupon for an order of 100 or more"

The funny part about playing a work of fiction is that you can jokingly take extreme stances like "kill all batarians" and it doesn't matter, because Mass Effect is not real life.

another low point of ME3 is how they bungle the opening and don't do Shepard on trial in the game. Going directly from the ending of ME2 to the opening of ME3 is one of the weirdest whiplashes in quality in the entire series

Yeah, it really set the tenor for the rest of the bungled narrative.

I can remember the moment I knew ME3 was not going to be on the same level as ME2, and it was that awful opening speech Shepard gives to some war committee or something. It's on the exact same level of quality as this speech:
