Nope, but it IS set in a setting rather similar to another one of their games :p

 

 

As for the count at the end of the manual, those include those that work at the publisher as well.

 

 

I highly doubt that Bioware had 200+ people working on it, given that they have multiple projects on the go. At its peak JE had 70 from Bioware.

Doesn't matter which one you get, it will be the same basic story.  :(

 

But atleast Mass Effect won't have freaking elves or stupid little magic and dragons.

 

Yep, and hopefully longer than Jade Empire.

The manual includes the Microsoft people, but the 200+ count were Bio names. Tallying the Microsoft names puts the count well over 200+. Do you have JE? Count.

 

Perhaps not all 200 worked on the game at the same time, but they contributed enough to warrant inclusion into the manual. Hell, D. Gaider wasn't listed back there. Even under the special thanks portion.

At the last count, BIO had 244 employees. Look for a link. It doesn't matter how many people workd on JE ata time. I hope people realize that BIo is very much capable of working on multiple projects.

 

 

Update: "BioWare itself has only 260 employees."
