@Ghostiet:
I realize "filler" was a badly chosen word so I take it back. Bioware uses the different character threads to flesh out the universe and make you feel more invested in the story. This doesn't always work, in my opinion, making it feel more like unnecessary obstructions.
But whatever your opinion on recruiting party members, I don't think ME3 will be completely free from it. That was my point to begin with.
(As you probably can tell, I wasn't exactly blown away by every character side story. So if that was the core of the game it's just a string of unrelated character bits, and sometimes you fight the collectors. For me, the core is the main story that will span all three games.)
