Today in our ongoing series where we highlight small anecdotes about beloved games from developers on Twitter, we've got a humdinger: the origin of the infamous BioWare turn.
You might not immediately recognize the term "BioWare turn," but if you've played more than three seconds of a Mass Effect or Dragon Age game, you'll almost certainly have an inkling of what it is. A conversation ends, then a character dramatically turns their head to side, moves their shoulders to follow, and slowly walks out of the scene. It's all over those games, to the point where there are 10-minute-long supercuts of the animation appearing in each of the two RPG trilogies.
