Casey Hudson, the Director and Executive Producer of Mass Effect 3, has spoken with Digital Trends about the game’s controversial ending sequences, and how it was BioWare’s intent all along to “polarise reaction”.
“I didn’t want the game to be forgettable, and even right down to the sort of polarising reaction that the ends have had with people–debating what the endings mean and what’s going to happen next, and what situation are the characters left in”, he said.
“That to me is part of what’s exciting about this story. There has always been a little bit of mystery there and a little bit of interpretation, and it’s a story that people can talk about after the fact.”
Mission accomplished, Casey!
Interestingly, he also mentions some “really great single-player content” that’s coming as future downloadable content, which given the manner of the trilogy’s conclusion, lends the week’s most popular conspiracy theory a little more credibility than it might have first warranted.
