Exodus, the new time-dilating space epic from developers who worked on the Mass Effect trilogy, Halo, The Last of Us, and Baldur's Gate, lands somewhere on two RPG spectrums apparently - between fantastical games like Skyrim and Final Fantasy, and BioWare bangers such as Dragon Age and Mass Effect.
Speaking during a recent Q&A, Archetype Entertainment describes how Exodus' protagonist works and whether their personality is one left up to players' own interpretation. Will they have a pre-established one, or can fans shape it as they play? "The level of personality that a character might have in a role-playing game is really dependent upon the kind of role-playing game and it kind of goes on a scale," explains studio head James Ohlen.
