Being able to choose between male and female, take that 200 million budget and make it 300 million. Maybe I'm exaggerating, but remaking the entire game for an entirely new character is insanely costly for something that players won't even play half of it.
No game company spends all that money so that half of the game is locked away from a male or female character selection. It's a huge waste of investment.
The only company that's crazy enough to do it is CD Projekt, since they had an entire storyline, city, and map locked away depending on your faction choice in Witcher 2.
Mass Effect?
