Earlier this month, a report came out stating that Amazon’s upcoming Mass Effect TV show was undergoing rewrites to appeal to, as The Ankler put it, “non-gamers.” There wasn’t much context given in the story, but fans took this to mean that Amazon’s adaptation of BioWare’s science fiction epic might deviate from the source material in ways that might not feel true to the RPGs. But now, the co-showrunner on the series has disputed that this demand has come from on high.
