Mass Effect Wish List
We’ve all read every piece of Mass Effect information we could get our hands on, mourned when release dates were pushed back and tremble at the thought of further delays. One of the most highly anticipated games to ever be produced – Mass Effect could become the greatest game of all time – or it could be one of the biggest disappointments of all time. Let’s hope for the former.
As a huge fan of BioWare’s Star Wars – Knights of the Old Republic (KOTOR), I’ve anticipated the day I would be playing Mass Effect. However, like many other enthusiasts – my greatest fear is that Mass Effect will somehow let me down, not living up to my expectations. Regardless, I’ve created a “wish list” of things I would like to see in the game. Actually, these are simple things – but qualities I found in BioWare’s KOTOR.
My wish list – at the very least – Mass Effect will need these qualities for me to like it:
1) Rich, meaningful interaction with other characters. One of my favorite qualities of KOTOR was the interaction with other characters. These we’re by no means abstract, casual interactions – they were meaningful, game changing relationships. I might even enjoy a “fling” or two.
2) Must have a good story. Like you, I’ve read the main story line of Mass Effect – but when I talk about having a good story – I’m talking about the subplots. I’m talking about the stories inside other stories. I’m looking for meaningful missions within those stories and most of all – the entire story line must be cohesive – not scattered.
3) Team dynamics. Again, like KOTOR – I’m looking to assemble a team throughout the game – making decisions regarding the development of that team and succeeding or failing based on those decisions. I’m looking for a real experience. I would like to see rich character development as the stories unfold.
4) Game length and difficulty. Although I loved every minute of it – I would like to see Mass Effect a little longer than KOTOR. I would also like to see it slightly more difficult.
5) Lots of surprises. I want Mass Effect to keep me on the edge of my chair the entire game. I want this game to tease me and make me want more.
If Mass Effect can deliver in these areas – along with its highly anticipated graphics and interaction – I don’t see how I could possibly be disappointed.
