Dragon Age Q&A

videogaming247 is bringing another round of annoyingly fractioned coverage, begging with “Mass Effect’s emotional lessons will be brought forward into Dragon Age, says BioWare boss“. The full interview is available in audio.

(Dragon Age is like BioWare’s bread and butter,) he said. (It’s appealing to the sweet spot of all the great games people love from the past, like Baldur’s Gate, Neverwinter Nights: this aspirational fantasy fulfillment. People that play Mass Effect are also going to love Dragon Age, but there may be a bit of overlap, and there may be some people that flit from one to the other, and that’s all good: they have different needs and tastes. But we’re certainly taking the things we’ve learnt from digital actors and emotionally compelling narrative, things like that, and we’re trying to apply that back to Dragon Age.)

Muzyka, presenting the PC version of Mass Effect at the event, said that it was a (studio mission) to make each of BioWare’s games better than the last, and that Dragon Age will be no exception.
