Mass Effect 2 In-Depth

NowGamer: NowGamer explores the universe of Mass Effect 2 with the games executive producer Casey Hudson.

With numerous plot line permutations and six possible endings, Mass Effect took narrative choice in games to a new level – with the sequel continuing the epic Sci-Fi saga from your Mass Effect 1 game save, we speak to Casey Hudson, executive producer on Mass Effect 2, to find out how the middle entry in the planned trilogy is shaping up.

How do you approach a sequel when people had such different experiences with the first game?

Well, for us we've been developing stories that have branching storylines for a long time. It's pretty familiar to us and we've long since established an approach that allows us to do that in an interesting way. I guess the thing that ME2 does differently is that it's kind of a multi-dimensional story because your game's going to be totally different to someone else's if you've played ME1 and you carry your save across.
