the tradeoff here is familiarity versus innovation. exodus clearly draws from mass effect's DNA, which is what players want — but the ex-bioware team's stated goal of something new is exactly what the genre needs. if they can balance both, this could be the game that moves the genre forward rather than recycling it.
500k wishlists before release and a release date locked in for april 2027. that's a lot of trust from players who've been burned before. if exodus delivers on its promise of being more than just mass effect 4, it could redefine what a modern rpg looks like. what's the one thing you hope they get right?
Rank: Private First ClassClan Memberi kept expecting this to just coast on mass effect nostalgia, but the hands-on details suggest exodus is doing its own thing with the companion system. april 2027 can't come soon enough.
