One nice touch that I really like about the game is the flexible character generation. Oblivion is the only game I've played where you could create your own character with such a customized appearance, but most of the sliders in Oblivion went from ugly to fugly. A popular description is that Oblivion's characters all look like burn victims—it's strange considering how great the rest of the game looks. But in Mass Effect you can create a hero you wouldn't mind looking at for the length of the game.

My character in Oblivion didn't look like a burn victim, however, she looked like she could become one if she staying in any direct sunlight for any amount of time (damn, I wish I had a picture!)
Mass Effect's choices were pretty good. Much better than a lot of games I've seen!
Well, my character in Oblivion was a catwoman, and she didn't look nearly as bad as most of the more human-like races...
