Exodus, the sci-fi action RPG in development at Archetype Entertainment, dropped an extended gameplay video today at the Future Games Show. It delivers the most up-close look at the game yet—and for better or worse, it's not shaking the allegations that it looks a lot like Mass Effect.
The hero in Exodus is Jun Aslan, who, unlike the highly trained and experienced military operative Commander Shepard, is a deep space salvager and all-around nobody. Kind of a loser, really—but they also just so happen to possess a genetic trait that allows them to wield uniquely powerful technology, including an upgradeable gauntlet that enables all sorts of special abilities.
