In the "Mass Effect" franchise, players get to experience relationships depending to whom the players get to be with in the game. In "Mass Effect: Andromeda", the same situation is still applicable, but there is twist at the end.
How Love Relationships Are Handled In 'Mass Effect: Andromeda'
According to Bioware writer and developer Mac Walters, the game developers are trying to push through the parameters of gaming, making relationship less formulaic. Walters wants to see a "Mass Effect: Andromeda" that has a complex kind of relationship feature in the game and making relationship develop in a natural way that real relationship looks like in real life.
Walters further discussed that players will have to learn to love other characters or hate some of them in "Mass Effect: Andromeda" like the game's predecessor. Walters explains that Bioware wants to build some characters who are going to appeal to certain people.
Bioware has a lot of writing teams, meaning players can choose from many characters to have a romantic relationship with in "Mass Effect: Andromeda." With that said, romance options in "Mass Effect: Andromeda" will have more freedom on whichever character the player chooses in the game.
When asked if will there be the same amount of romantic options from the previous game, Walters stated that the romantic relationships in "Mass Effect: Andromeda" maybe different, especially since there will be casual relationships and love interest who are not part of the crew. Mac Walters also added that players can have relationship with other NPCs outside the crew and can expand to other alien race in "Mass Effect: Andromeda."
"Mass Effect: Andromeda" is said to be released in March 2017 for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC platforms. For more "Mass Effect: Andromeda" news and update stay tuned to Gamenguide!
