Press F to pay respect to the old BioWare

Press F to pay respect to the old BioWare.

They died as soon as DAO was finished

The writing in ME 1 was the best of the bunch, the books he wrote were alright too.
>and then Mac Walters came along and Drew was forced to try and salvage TOR
>ME starts to turn to shit as the story threads he left unravel in 2 and are completely gone at the end of ME3 and Andromeda
Bioware died when they sold themselves to EA, them joining Maxis, Pandemic and the rest in that mass grave is just a matter of time.

after anthem fails bioware can finally be put to rest, its long overdue.

press s to spit on grave

bioware had had no talent since ME2

Karpyshyn is overrated anyway.
>reeee they force me to work, I don't wanna

IT ALL RETURNS TO NOTHING....

They just ripped off star control man

>Rejoin after MEA shits the bed to try and save Bioware
>Quit because you know it's inevitable

Nothing wrong in leaving a house that is already burnt.

You guys act like little girls getting your panties in a twist over nothing and anything

you say that like its a bad thing

At least wait for the shitposting before posting stuff like this user.

>Lead design dude literally died
>Gaider has left, now Karpyshyn
>pretty much everyone in the studio is in Anthem development right now, working hard as fuck
It's either gonna be 10/10 goty (see CDPR employees treatment), or a giant TORtanic.

it going to be massive failure. anthem is another online dumpster fire that we all know will end up having lootboxes. it will fall somewhere between the graves of lawbreakers and evolve.

>Everyone who works at BioWare pours their heart and soul into the games they are making. It’s creatively demanding and – at times – exhausting. In the past, I’ve managed to juggle outside projects with my work at BioWare, but it always took a toll.
It's literally "I want to spend more time playing games and having fun instead of working".

I has a glimmer of hope. Give it a chance.

Isn't he the guy that butchered Revan horribly with those beyond shitty books with awful plot twists?

Couldn't stand someone else writing his character better just by referencing it.

I bet even with online and shit it'll be more profitable than their full-SP games, with people spending $15k on lootboxes and customization. Because that's how current game industry works, unfortunately. I'll be happy if it's an okay game, since it's obviously a cashcow that'll help them to make more SP RPGs and DA4.

No need

Its a wasted shitpost.

>he returned to bioware in 2015
What the fuck? It has been three years already? Tell me this isn't true.

Fuck Drew, bring back /ourboy/ Gaider instead.

DAO was the only decent game they've ever made. Baldur's Gate 2 is overrated, broken casual trash with zero roleplaying depth or challenge. Mass Effect was never good.

I hope anthem flops so bioware can finally be put down.

First post best post

So, gaider doesn't like to be manipulated. Noted.

He also doesn't like pedos.

Is Bioware going to die? Anthem is their last chance right? I'm not even interested in that title and don't really know who is.

I still don't get how he managed to get away with all his posts.

>possibly you hang out on rpg codex
Old savage.

if antLOOTBOXhem flops ea will put the ghost of bioware out of its misery so fast it'll make your head spin

You say that like you genuinely enjoy bioware's newer games.

Wait, Karpyshyn is a dude? I always thought he was that fat lady often shooped in Bioware memes. Who the fuck names their son Drew?

no that hamburger hepler

Trespasser was unironically the best thing that happened to Bioware since DAO.

AND YOU COULD HAVE IT ALL

DA4 is a thing, apparently, so we have to wait for that disaster

>dorf females look like 14 year old girls, that's icky! (even though all dwarven women are just short, stocky, busty and as crude as dorf males)
>MEANWHILE IN KOTOR...Mission, 14 years old.
>MEANWHILE IN MASS EFFECT...Commander Shepard's #1 fangirl, Tali, 14 years old.

I would sell my soul for Tevinter.

Gaider is a huge faggot, but that cap shows rather uncharacteristic integrity for him.

/thread

for real tevinter, sure, not the watered down version by nu-bioware of it
remember when DAO was somewhat dark high fantasy setting? not anymore.
I'm still angry about elven magic kingdom bullshit, deep roads and golden city had so freaking much potential for something uncanny

Except the whole lore has been made in DAO times. Weekes is a bigger sadomasochist than Gaider, so I think he'll manage that.

awakening had directly opposite tone of lore though, it hinted at different things than what we got
it's ME3 all over again.

Should've study lore properly, my man. If you replay DAO after DAI + some additional researching, you'll see it's all there and Gaider is a fucking madman.

Nothing? I'm sorry but bioware was, for me, the best developer in the world. They put out quality game after quality game for over a decade. They were almost indeputably the best rpg developer around. Their fall has been the most painful in the entire industry, I miss what they used to do so much, before EA, and especially before they started trying to do open worlds. Fuck open worlds.

i'm okay with pantheon part and elven gods etc part, i'm not okay with murder of deep roads as a mysterious place - now it simply interlines with veil weak parts that's why blight came from it
I loved deep roads so much, no other game makes underground so intriguing or giant, it gave me BLAME feels

I'm angry that they traded in the strategic and rewarding gameplay of DA:O for a cheesy single player mmorpg-lite bastardization.

He kind of looks like the son I am disappoint guy

they simply couldn't make proper combat, in early interviews they promised proper action combat
they simply copied TOR copy of WoW into it
speaking of lack of talent, on the other hand MEA combat was best in series
so if they consolidate proper resources(haha) it might be good

To be honest Descent deep roads were pretty decent. Just lacking good ol' blight gore, but I think they'll deliver when (if) the next blight happen.

descent was okay, but it happened before last DLC when all got revealed

All for console plebs.
>tfw there are people who unironically think dai plays much better on gamepad than on kb+m

what's best full plate class in DAO aside from mage OP build? I think I need to replay it.

We still don't know there the blight came from tho. All we know than the ancient elves stumbled upon it during hungry-for-power Titan lyrium mining at some point, went "OH SHIT", made it a restricted no-passage area. But then some of their local fake gods said: "wait, but what if we can use the taint to bring us more power", killed Mythal because she was the only one who was against this retarded idea, and after that Fen'Harel went full REEEE, decided to rebel the fuck out against them, erected the Veil, locked these blighted faggots in the Black City, and went to sleep for thousands of years.

BACK TO SQUARE ONE BABY

Tali isn't 14.

People acting like this is the end of bioware, the dude was a hack and only became worse with age as seen with Revan.

I've seen stuff claiming Anthem is dead now because hes gone, dudes a fucking writer, the gameplay is the selling point not the dipshit story of a pseudo-mmo looter.

If Anthem is dead, its because Bioware can't design and make games anymore, which is almost entirely a given at this point.

>people still give karpyshyn credit for ME1 even though all of the worthwhile lore was written by chris l'etoile

shiggy diggy

>chris l'etoile

Why does a french guy has a anglo name?

Canadians, man.
