I can’t name them. The names aren’t formulaic. But I can give you a paragraph description that’ll fit each of them.

And I think I will.

Here’s what I think you should do:

- Write the names of the ME2 characters on an index card.
- Next to each of them write out your descriptions.
- Seal it in an envelope.
- After the game’s been released and people are tearing it to pieces, open the envelope.

If you were right, have yourself a beer on me.

“I’ve heard some people complain that the games produced by BioWare are somewhat formulaic. I will admit that but I’d also ask the question of why it’s a bad thing”

Why? Because I played with the same characters in Neverwinter Nights. I played with the same characters in KOTOR. I played with the same characters in Mass Effect. I played with the same characters in Dragon Age.

At least in Dragon Age, they got more unique personalities. But it’s still the same ragtag group of characters that fill the exact same roles.

In fact, I bet I can give accurate descriptions of almost all the characters in Mass Effect 2, and I haven’t even read material on the game.
