    [​IMG]Atomic PC has a preview of Mass Effect 3 based on a presentation and roundtable discussion with the Biodocs and invited press. Among the subjects covered was "the future of RPGs", with this snip featuring Eugene Evans, GM of BioWare Mythic:

    Out of the many topics, the future of RPGs was perhaps the most interesting. There was a lot of discussion of multiplayer, the supposition that single-player will die off in the not-so-distant future and how interconnected mobile platforms can add to the RPG experience. All members of the panel had their own spin on how they saw the future of the RPG, but Eugene summed it up best with his stance. "I think the always-connected person, the person with the phone that's as capable as it is now and will be in the next couple of years, means that they expect that to be part of their everyday life. We should expect that to be part of their everyday gaming life, too. And the opportunity to make that an extension of what they're doing in a game, is going to be very, very powerful; as a way to keep them engaged."

    "Because you only have so much time to play; but you do have time when you're on the bus, you do have time when you're waiting around for whatever. It's a way to keep them engaged and re-engage them so that they're going to want to get back home to play the game. They're going to want to get back to their couch, their desk, wherever it is to play. And that's only going to, I think, create more excitement around games, because that excitement comes from being pulled back into that universe all the time."​
