BioWare top guys reveal more about Mass Effect
For all you guys anticipating BioWare‘s next title, Ray Muzyka and Greg Zeschuk talked about Mass Effect in the latest interview with CVG.
Muzyka gave his piece about the different elements in the game. Mass Effect will be focusing on the story, characters, and digital actors; this means exploring galaxies and uncharted worlds to enhance the story, and all out motion capture with hundreds of voice actors for the characters.
Fortunately, the decision to put the game in a single DVD isn’t going to affect the quality. No confirmations about downloadable content yet, but it’s almost certain that we’ll get some. “Mass Effect is a natural fit for that kind of thing,” said Muzyka.
Both of them are pretty proud of the voice job. “There’s over a hundred I think. There 300 characters; it’s pretty crazy in a good way,” Zeschuk commented. “We’ve got some famous actors for the voice acting as well,” added Muzyka.
A huge focus on the game is the branching conversations. To make sure they flow well, all cutscenes even just a couple of people talking are done with motion capture. “I remember when I first played with the dialogue system I was like, ‘wow’. It really does feel like you’re in the scene dictating what your lines are. It really brings you in to the experience,” said Zeschuk.
