With all due respect OP, nobody intelligent has bought anything from Bioware since ME2. If it took you until ANTHEM to figure out Bioware games are shit, I don't know what to tell you.

It's kinda crazy how incompetent bioware is
It's even more crazy that far more competent studios have been shutdown or put on life support for far less [visceral and citerion come to mind].
Bioware gets to embarrass EA over and over with their shitty games but every other studio except dice, popcap and whoever makes those autistic sports games gets shutdown.

You're a literal retard if you thought Anthem wasn't going to be a mess.

wow what a string of truly quality titles released under the BioWare banner in the past 8 years

I don't know how to put this precisely.
But Anthem shocked me and I was of the same mindset as you but it was worse. I expected next to nothing good about this game and they still found a way to let me down.

>I don't know how to put this precisely.

You thought that Bioware had hit rock bottom, but you were wrong. We can only begin to comprehend how far down that drain this goes before it hits bottom. One day we will be thankful to EA for ending Bioware, just to end the suffering.

Not sure what the fuck else everyone else was expecting from them. Everything they've made since ME2 has been hot ass.

Just how fucking far have we fallen as a civilization.

EA isn't really at fault aside from dictating what games they should make next and forcing the frostbite engine down everyone's throat.
The problem is that EA lets the devs pretty much do whatever they want, so people try to usurp each other all the time. Eventually people who game the system end up in places where they shouldn't belong and it all goes downhill from there. EA should've supervised everything Bioware did and step in when they noticed people only got to places because they were friends with the right people.

It's routine at this point. I don't even feel good about avoiding flops anymore, I expect that much of myself by now.

It's just crazy how you can point out two dozen serious flaws with something, and the fanboys and shills will try to move the goalposts for every one. "It's not that big of a deal", "they'll fix it", "I haven't had that problem", "yeah but X is cool". It's really sad how people can't tell the difference between criticism of something they like (or think that they like) and a personal attack on themselves.

it's infuriating the other way around as well, though.

i'm honestly baffled that people did. who the FUCK would want a bioware game solely for its gameplay? that shit sounded like a fucking scam from the beginning.

What do you mean? Like when something is good but no one will believe you and give it a try?

Unironically yes. EA has completely gone all in on the lootbox. They have almost no IP left at this point. When anti-lootbox legislation passed, they are not positioned to transition their business model. Remember that’s EA makes like 25% of their money from FIFA lootboxes alone. I’d imagine it’s close to or equal that from Madden.

Oh nonononono

Meaning that once the legislation passes, the biggest perpetrator of lootboxes will be dead and the industry practice of using them will die with them. EAs reliance on this business model and their own success with it will end up killing them.

Only bought BFront1 and to be honest I have no regrets. It's a fun game, it just lacked content.

I'm still mad that I got this shit for free with my rtx card.

lol, oh hell no, we absolutely, positively need to witness the shitshow that will be Dragon Age 4. There was so much "progress" in the last game, the only improvement they can make is to add in the maximum amount of "progress." At this point they'll have fired any one with a decent IQ so the only people left at the company will be diversity hires. I can smell a winner a mile off. This is going to be one of the most glorious roll outs for a video game since Andromeda.

I'm not fucking retarded or underaged so I never buy the hype for any game.

it's slutty, which is kind of hot. attractive is the wrong word.

Games did fine in the pre-loot box era, nintendo does fine without lootboxes in their mains titles.
How about you just remove all the worthless "jobs" from your company (90% of them) and just have a team that actually makes games?

Worst case scenario, they find a loophole like Blizzard did in China with Hearthstone.

Best case scenario, they go back to having to make quality games since sales will actually be the primary means of making money again and microtransactions and all that shit will die off.

So many companies have inflated stock prices because of MTX boosting the fuck out of them and forcing constant growth beyond what the industry has ever seen before to please a bunch of rich old idiot shareholders who just "want a Fortnite." It'll be interesting to see what kind of bullshit they try and pull as they squirm and panic at the prospect of losing the billions that unregulated gambling got them.

Attached: 1508978989887.png (547x609, 119K)

The controversy behind that was extremely overblown. First off, it's single player game so who cares if whales want to waste thier underserved cash on a chance at getting what's offered in the course of regular game. Secondly, if you liked the first game, you'll enjoy the mechanics of the second game. You'll be getting all the same things found in lootboxes just out there having fun killing captains, overthrowing forts etc. The lootboxes were always only for lazy game journos with short attention spans and idiots who spend money because they can.

if lootboxes become illegal then they'll just sell you all the cosmetics straight up
Blizzard has actually been trying out the "just literally sell everything" option with heroes of the storm and it's been working out great for them.
I'm not talking about the normal "buy skins" bullshit that has been happening with all games like dota and league, im talking about "your account gets nothing, there are thousands of cosmetics and voice lines and items in the shop" that hots and Warframe does.

the illusion of being able to grind for it suckers in more people, who eventually give up and just buy it

you could tell it would be shit just from the gameplay videos
anyone who thought it would be good is a fucking retard

Yes. When im fapping furiously to my ahegoa queen Belle Delphine i often grunt out demeaning sexual phrases in regards to her intellect.
Bitches need to know their place which is below men btw.

Euro won't be far behind. They're much more aggressive than the US in that regard. The only reason they're not the first is that they work slow

hasn't stopped the handful of fags beating off to Outer Worlds. there will always be people who want to believe. and the more evidence to the contrary will only further solidify their favorable belief.

Reminder that Bioware were cheap enough to not do internal testing and instead relied on the community to "beta" test their game and hold themselves to some arcane anonymous NDA to avoid people spreading news about the game being shit ala Fallout 76.
There were beyond retarded corporate cocksuckers for an entire week trying to bury anyone who dared break their NDA as if consumers shouldn't know what a piece of shit it was a month before launch.

I haven't watched gameplay for Outer Worlds, but at least that's an RPG with story and consequences right? Anthem was a Bioware game without any of what made Bioware games special. That alone should have turned people off.

>bioware's side team killed a multi-media spanning AAA franchise with a single entry

The new Cataclysm event is already DOA and it's not even out yet. This overhyped event only lasts like 6 weeks, then it's back to nothing.

there was hype?

I used to be that way with MMOs. Always chasing the next hyped up MMO that will bring me back to my childhood. They don't exist, you gotta just move past it. Shame it's so difficult for people to realize that.

I guarantee they're only still around because the brand is worth sjw points. EA has killed devs for far far less

>Dragon Age 4 was MIA at E3

I didn't even notice that. I doubt it matters, though. A lot of damage has been done to it already with that report (or rumor) that it was going to be games-as-a-service, MMO-like, and maybe even always-online.

anytime I hear of people getting squirrely around breaking embargos or having the embargo right before the game comes out, I avoid those games like the plague. 99 times of out 100 they're shit

i didn't necessarily mean to pick on Outer Worlds, there's a ton of games that get hype and then you watch the gameplay reveal and all rational people abandon ship while the rubes intone their rationalizations. Shenmue 3 is another recent example, although who really thought that game was going to be decent?

>Cataclysm supposed to be world-ending storms battering the environment while you tried to survive
>ends up being the same map with a blue filter
I literally couldn't stop laughing at people who were dumb enough to stick with this pile of garbage

If not for the controversy, they probably would have been much more aggressive in the game's balance to push you to buy microtransactions.

No, but I find it hot as hell when women in real life make ugly or screwed up faces while cumming (like they smelled vinegar), that's how you know they're really cumming hard.
The ahegao face looks forced and faked for a performance act, even when women in real life do it.

>Asked for a hug
That did not happen. No way in hell, if it did then I feel awful for those devs, Anthem is one of the few GaaS titles that deserves a mercy kill.

they were ordered to, it was single player at first, they slapped current anthem in 1.5 years
EA wanted to get on 4 year old trend that's already dead, just like with TOR, and Bioware is their "bring me tea boy"

I bet with a friend on the "Bioware killed before any kind of gameplay of DA4 will be shown" back in december.
Looks like im gonna win the bet.

This is an hard choise, watching a shitshow and laughting at die ahrd DA fans losing their shit when the game will be revealed as a Game as a Service and being even worse than Anthem, or pulling the plug when Bioware ha still one last drop of dignity?

They're already fighting the legislation claiming the wording is too vague, I expect them to keep the bill tied up in court for as long as they can while they try to shift gears and find something else to sell.

My money's on them doubling down on the Season Pass train. It's not gambling in any way, shape, or form (so long as you say whats in it before selling it), its a practice long familar with consumers, and its very easy to cut a game into pieces and sell them all separately for maximum profit. Whether people call out companies on that shit and vote with their wallet remains to be seen, though if history shows up anything its that the average gaming consumer eats lead paint chips and couldn't see the difference between a scam and a scallop.

I just realized they said absolutely nothing about the DA4 teaser. Not a single info or even passing words

Did they actually thought they'd bank on Anthem?

i think i've been angry at every Dragon Age game in some fashion or another. I did think the first one was probably the best, second one was an improvement imo in a lot of ways but the small scope and backtracking practically ruined it and the 3rd game...well, it was somewhat enjoyable at the time despite being awkward and a little too drawn out and lots of empty spaces. Trying to play it again a few years back, i couldn't even get 10 hours in it was so bad.

While I do think the series has some merit, it's progressively gotten worse particularly, and most importantly, in the writing and gameplay. They're going to fuck up DA4, it's just a matter of how bad, and I'm personally hoping for a total shitshow. Letting them crawl into a dark hole with w/e dignity they have left is not an option. They need to crash and burn spectacularly for my amusement. and they will.

>Did they actually thought they'd bank on Anthem?
they thought they would bank on DA4 but it didn't create enough buzz for EA to acknowledge

It's probably going to be another two years before Jason Schreer puts out another article about Dragon Age 4's messy behind the scenes. I wont be surprised if that game is in dev hell and they're desperately relying on Anthem to keep people preoccupied until that releases.

The only good one is the first one, the other two are sub par RPG worse than almost all of the big names of the genere.
People that liked the sequels usually are people that starter palying rpg with the first DA, that is the only excuse to liking those games.
If you already palyed many rpgs, playing thse two is almost unbearable.

My first exposure to it was completely writing it off / calling BS on its 2017 E3 trailer, then I didn't really hear about it again until it's launched pissed everyone off.

I liked it.

I even started playing the game after everyone on twitch/Yea Forums was hating on it. The game looked fun enough to try, and it was.

What's sad is that you're letting zoomers tell you how to feel about a game. Zoomers. Think about that.

I'm just a sucker for any RPG, I've played plenty of good and bad ones prior to DA2 and Inquisition. Yes, they are extremely generic, but they had their moments. Personally, that series won't be missed by me and my only interest in DA4 is to watch it destroy Bioware and produce funny memes. I doubt I would even play it, even if all the rumors turned out to be false. I was sufficiently disgusted with Inquisition's mediocrity and cringe.

Hey user, want some O P U L E N C E

Destiny was at least able to improve. Then it went to shit again. Then it improved again. And now that Bungie owns it, it looks like it's going to continue improving.

EA isn't going to be that patient. Anthem is just completely fucked.

>played the game, but never bought it, since a friend gave me his code from his video card purchase.
It looked nice, suits look pretty cool, and the color customization was great. and the combat was good if you liked the, I guess now, Bioware Prime-and-Blast gameplay.

But once you get past the inital enjoyment of it, you find that there's really only two or three abilities that a worth anything for each suit, so everyone ends up using the exact same loadouts. Quests were all just "go to arena and fight around three waves of enemies, maybe while you pick up an item, then move to the next arena" And you have to REALLY like the bioware combat to keep yourself interested in that.

Anyone that actually payed for this though? I can only imagine there's very, very few people that felt that was money well spent.

The base game isn’t going F2P until September.

Play Divison 2.
That game is ruined by developer incompetence, not corporate producer greed.

When they removed the lootboxes it came with a serious balance overhaul to make progression natural without lootboxes, meaning that progression was gimped while the lootboxes were there and you'd have to use 3rd party tools to "fix" it before that.

O sultan, Turkish devil and damned devil's kith and kin, secretary to Lucifer himself. What the devil kind of knight are thou, that canst not slay a hedgehog with your naked arse? The devil shits, and your army eats. Thou shalt not, thou son of a whore, make subjects of Christian sons; we have no fear of your army, by land and by sea we will battle with thee, fuck thy mother.

Pig's snout, mare's arse, slaughterhouse cur, unchristened brow, screw thine own mother!

So the Zaporozhians declare, you lowlife. You won't even be herding pigs for the Christians. Now we'll conclude, for we don't know the date and don't own a calendar; the moon's in the sky, the year with the Lord, the day's the same over here as it is over there; for this kiss our arse!

What happens if EA dies will all their IPs just fly back to their owners like when Shang Tsung died in the Mortal Kombat movie and everyone's soul returned to the afterlife?

Most likely as an asset, it will be liquidated and up for grab for the highest bidder.

They all go up for auction like with what happened to Interplay. That happening is why Bethesda owns Fallout. God knows who will pick up all the licensing EA holds.

I haven't purchased an EA game since Mass Effect 3. I have yet to regret this decision.

I tried to get hyped for it. But then i played the beta. Low effort trash game.

i haven't purchased a bioware game since EA decided to make their games exclusive to Origin

We don’t know yet. We’ll probably know more in a month or so.
I’d imagine some special emote, emblem or ghost or something. They did something similar when Forsaken launched for everyone that had played in year 1.
The transition to making all of year 1 content free is kinda already underway since the first two smaller DLCs, Curse of Osiris and Warmind are now freely available to anyone that owns the base game.
