E3 2016: How Mass Effect: Andromeda’s Ryder Is Different from Shepard - IGN

BioWare tells IGN how key differences between Ryder and Shepard will change the flow of the story.

The protagonist in Mass Effect: Andromeda, Ryder, is not a hero — at least not yet. BioWare Creative Director Mac Walters said that, unlike with Shepard’s story, Mass Effect: Andromeda follows the more traditional hero’s journey.

“Commander Shepard, the way I put it was, a hero (when we met them — him or her) who became a legend,” Walters told IGN. “For me, the people in Andromeda’s story are people who haven’t yet achieved hero status.

“It really wasn’t until the third game where we started to explore more of Shepard’s… what they think about things and how they’re feeling and how they’re dealing with things. I think those are areas we’ll try to focus on more in Mass Effect: Andromeda with the protagonists.”

Because Ryder has been sent out hundreds of lightyears away, Walters said that Ryder and the still unknown Tempest crew are “cut off from everything [they] would have been familiar with.”

“This is much more of a hero’s journey. What that entails is a slightly more intimate story that you want to tell. Seeing the lens through someone who is learning and growing and actually has an arc throughout the course of the story. I mean, Shepard had an arc but it was established.“

“In order for someone to become a hero they need to be presented with a lot of challenges and trials and tribulations,” Walters said. “It is a darker start, and you progress for that hopeful future as you go through it.”

We know that Ryder has been sent out on the Tempest to Andromeda to find a new home for humanity, but story details are still unknown. BioWare said it’d reveal more later this fall.

- Can we just acknowledge the chance that maybe Avery’s idea for a secret pirate utopia didn’t pan out, and maybe we’re just swept up in this fantasy. When instead we should be looking for a real way to save you.
