Firstly: I have in fact played Mass Effect, all three. I have told no lies, I have spoken no falsehoods. Why would I feign expertise in a field I have no grounding in? That's not something I'm ethically allowed to do. I'm honestly baffled by that accusation.

I will be the first to admit that it has a very good story. It is a very good series. I'm just not convinced that tweaking that formula would be effective for the story RWBY is trying to tell.

I, too, play video games for the story, though I've not played much in the past few years. I freely admit and never in fact denied that iit can be an effective medium. I'm unconvinced in this specific case, however. I've not played Dragon Age, but I shall take your word for it. I will also admit that BioWare is better than most companies at effectively mixing gameplay requirements and narrative.
