Mass Effect 2 - Interview @ CVG

by Dhruin, 2009-12-18 19:58:15

BioWare's man-of-the-moment Adrien Cho answers some last-minute questions from CVG.  Cho claims this is BioWare's best game (understandably) and they discuss the lack of a PS3 port and chat about DLC in general:

What would you say other BioWare series can learn from Mass Effect 2?

Cho:
The joy of doing a sequel is improving upon the things you set forth, keeping all of the important elements there but refining the areas where it could be stronger.

All BioWare games focus on good storytelling, that goes without saying. Mass Effect the series leans more towards combat. In the first one we delivered something and we really felt we could improve the combat with the experience in this one, without removing any of the elements that made the first one great.

We knew we had a limited amount of resources, a set time limit and we wanted to hit all the areas that we had criticisms for and make sure that we answered them. People said, 'Mass Effect is a great game but it had long load elevators'. We wanted to address every single thing so... I'm not going to say shut up our critics, but it'd leave no room to deny that this is an amazing game.
