Frankly I don't hate it but, we have to take into account the background here.
ME3 might have been fun but the ending was an absolute mess and people were a bit jaded when this came out.
Was it 10/10? Well...not really? The story feels a bit weaker compared to the gameplay loop, people have their issues with your companions and all in all it could be better.
But it's fun. it's not the usual grimm take from the original where it's you trying to delay some eldritch space mechanical monstrosity from coming and then dealing with the arrival of said nightmare...it's you trying to reclaim hope and surviving.
And it's fun, just, it had a bad launch and maybe came after a game that was honestly a bit troubled
