15-year Mass Effect and Dragon Age veteran says people join BioWare "to build a story-focused, single-player RPG" - so we probably won't see a repeat of Anthem

Anthem.

A veteran of Mass Effect and Dragon Age with 15 years BioWare experience has defended the work the studio did on its biggest flop, but says that Dragon Age: The Veilguard will return to the company's RPG roots.

Speaking to Edge magazine, The Veilguard creative director John Epler said that BioWare is "a studio that has always been built around digging deep on storytelling and roleplaying." That's something that he's played a major part in across his 15+ years at the studio, having contributed to all three Dragon Age games, as well as Mass Effect 2. But it's also something he saw BioWare drift away from with its 2019 effort, the short-lived and poorly-received live service game Anthem.
