Mac Walters, lead writer on the Mass Effect franchise, stated in the latest issue of Bioware Pulse that we will see a deeper side of Shepard than we have seen in previous installments of the series.
“One of the things we wanted to do in Mass Effect 3 was deepen Shepard as a character, so you really get to express what your Shepard is feeling and going through, throughout the war,” said Walters. If this is the case then we can definitely look forward to another great story in the Mass Effect franchise.
