Figure a thread is in order now that a full trailer has dropped.
Exodus is a grand scifi RPG in development at Archetype Entertainment. Archetype was established in 2019 by Wizards of the Coast for AAA game development in Austin, Texas, with much of its key staff hailing from Bioware. Studio heads are James Ohlun (lead designer/Creative Director on the first two Baldur's Gate games, along with KOTOR and the first Dragon Age) and Chad Robertson (also a Bioware alum). Lead writer on the project is Drew Karpyshyn, lead writer for the first two Mass Effect games along with Knights of the Old Republic.

Following the drop of the second batch of Secret Level episodes (episode 11 is set in this game universe), a gameplay teaser was dropped nearly a year after the initial teaser at the Game Awards in 2023. And it does look quite Mass Effect-ish

 

wonko the sane?

You may test that assumption at your convinience.

No sexy purple chick? Hard pass.

Alright, bullshit aside: it doesn't look too bad. But good space opera RPG is very hard to do. They've got a decent pedigree to start with, and some of the combat mechanics looked very interesting... but...

Yeah, keeping an eye on it, but not necessarily on my grab list. Not yet.
