Every Bioware game has effectively had 2 choices, so no biggie there. And I mean 2 total, since you choose to be good or evil while the game is installing then railroad that the entire time because otherwise you lose rewards.

Only two dialog options. Congratulations Bioware, you have made a dialog system that sounds worse than Fallout 4's!

Two choices, only one of which you ever use in a given playthrough, right? Gah.

I mean, I guess if we're being fair I almost never not romance Garrus.

I played the weekend demo, boring ass game. The core gameplay doesn't even prop it like Destiny 2 does with its satisfying moment to moment action and polished gunplay.
If the story content gets good reception then I might pick it up 1+ year from now in a deep discount sale. Otherwise yeah nah.

It's got far better immediate mobility options than Destiny 2, but otherwise it's Destiny 2 as drawn and engineered by the people who made Dragon Age and ME, but with even less inspiration - that's the bigger problem. The combat's fine for an MMORPGFPSOMGBBQ. Not everything needs to pop like a Bungie game.
Performance-wise, it looks quite pretty in spite of its generic science fiction iconography, and even ran well until the frame-rate started seesawing in the third mission when it started raining. It also hammers the shit out of your CPU when it loads in textures. I don't think I've seen Frostbite run this inconsistently before, but Bioware's always been good at taking engines and breaking them before trying to glue them back together.

Just don't try running it with an old CPU like I did.

That's not high praise. Both Destiny games had ass gameplay mixed with indecipherable, pretentious writing.
Credit where it's due for the original Mass Effect and Dragon Age games. They weren't exactly original, but they did an excellent job of recreating the moods and aesthetics of their respective genre inspirations in order to accomplish some great world building. For Anthem I have absolutely no clue what's going on with the setting so far.
