I swear, everytime I hear Bioware talk about making their games a more "cinematic" experience, I have to wonder If they'd rather just make a movie with viewer-controlled combat. But then I'm just someone who thought DA:O was a great return to form from the company that brought us BG2 and KotOR - not so cinematic but fantastic games.

Hmmm. You posted an image instead of making any sort of reasoned argument.



Well played. That certain put me in my place...

Aye, mods said that may be considered spamming


...I just get annoyed by looking at the basic Shepard

Yeah, well, how much have you seen from the game?



Voice Acting does not mean it takes away from the role playing aspect, although it usually does. Wait until we've seen more.

"Cinematic" =/= lack of gameplay, though I know plenty of people who would apparently rather watch a cutscene every 10 minutes instead of actually participate in any sort of combat.

In other words....deal with it.

I haven't seen any more than anyone else here. I'm just making a comment on this emphasis on "cinematic" that Bioware has been vocally working toward. While the stories are usually great (the saving grace for the Mass Effect series in my opinion), it just seems to me that this focus can detract from the games themselves.

Games are trying to be more like movies. If you don't like it, buy a Wii and play Mario Party.

I'm just stating my opinion on this trend.

Or if you want movies, you could buy a DVD? Here's the thing... if you don't like the direction games are going, you have two options - make your own or speak up. I don't have the time, resources, or ability to make my own. Guess what option that leaves.

No. I think they should take a chapter from Square Enix and leave the "cinematics" to the cutscenes and story telling. I personally think that cinematic elements  in game play can be gimmicky, but it's happening so we have to deal.

Kindly staple your fingers together for typing that.

Or you could just not buy them. Not playing a BioWare game wont melt the polar ice caps.

We have to do no such thing. If we don't like it, we need to speak up. If it doesn't change, we can let our money talk.

There are far worse trends than "cinimatic game".

The style worked tremedously well for Metal Gear Solid, but I doubt that BioWare is even close to the level of a legendary work of art. They should stick to the dialogue, but even then I think Black Isle destroyed the competition with Fallout. If it wasn't for such droughts in the RPG department, I wouldn't even be interested in Dragon Age: 2. Anyways, I'm waiting till September (or was it November) when Obsidian releases Fallout: New Vegas.
