GDC 09: Mass Effect 2's Evolving Design

GiantBomb writes; "As a press member, I feel a little out of place when infiltrating educational sessions at the Game Developers Conference in pursuit of information on an unreleased game. These presentations are intended for game makers to share their talent and ideas with each other, not for professional game fans such as myself to sponge sound bites we can assemble into a story. But when the session is about Mass Effect 2, can you really expect me to stay away?"

Legion, Zaeed, and Jack are my favorites.

RiseNShine500d ago

To think that Bioware at some point was capable of doing games like this, you see those characters and remember them like good old friends, and now check ME Andromeda, Anthem, Veilguard etc and wonder what the hell happened.

anast500d ago

They lost too much talent.

IAMRealHooman500d ago

some in andromeda are decent, I agree with peebee and Vetra being good companions. Except Liam he's trash tier

anast500d ago

Loved Alpha Protocol in all it's glorious jank. Great game.

SimpleSlave748d ago (Edited 748d ago )

Not only glorious jank, but the idea that the story can completely change depending on what you do, or say, or side with, makes it one of the most forward thinking games ever. The amount of story permutation is the equivalent of a Hitman level but in Story Form. And it wasn't just that the story changed, no, it was that you met completely new characters, or missed them, depending on your choices. Made Mass Effect feel static in comparison.

Alpha Protocol was absolutely glorious, indeed. And it was, and still is, more Next Gen than most anything out there these days. In this regard at least.

Pity.
