I so called you guys would be setting yourselves for disappointment and then be up in arms when I read this thread yesterday XD

I remember. I was so looking forward to showing you how wrong you where and that Bioware wouldn't leave us hangin'.

Stop complaining now people, seriously :') It''s their game they can choose to do what the hell they like with it. Sure I was ticked off that I didn't get a demo at first, but at the end of the day, the game comes out next month. No point being childish about it, because if it wasn't for BioWare we wouldn't have a Dragon Age II to not have a demo of :P

Edit: Leading everyone on like that was AWESOME. After my brief rage of a lack of demo I laughed for about half an hour :devil:

Bioware simply chose to ignore the excitement that was building. I wonder if there was a betting pool for this announcement.

So basically...it was a very very bad case of CYA? Or complete lack thereof?



I mean I signed up for the beta thing but haven't they been announcing that game for a while? So it's not really a new announcement, is it?



Huh you would think maybe doing a few easy info leaks, like femHawke's voice, maybe more art, or confirmations of a couple of LIs would be painless enough on their end but just enough to hold over fans for one more month. If not that, then some other mysterious piece of info on the lore? OR maybe even a tour through Hawke mansion? That would be kind of cool but unspoilerish.

There would have been massive complaints with any announcement. This is just another day on the forums, albeit with a little more drama.

oh quite definitely, but a "sorry our plans fell through" coupled with "but hey here's LadyHawkes voice and some screens and some more exclusive tidbits (we weren't originally planning on talking about) just because we promised there'd be something awesome" would have worked out so much better

Since it was the original release date, I did expect them to replace it with something of a little more substance. Especially with the "few tricks" comment from Mike.


Well, it is something of substance. But okay, so it disappointed you... what did you expect, then? A demo? First of all, they might still, keeping in mind that they're not the ones who emailed those banners, and if they did release a demo they never intended to do it today, evidently. But ignoring that leak which was out of their control, is it really reasonable to expect something from them that they've never commented on? As opposed to the thing they've been talking about for a while?

And okay, let's say you were right in expecting whatever you were expecting, and you didn't get it... so you were disappointed a little, you expected something better. Keep in mind that this is something they're offering for free, here. Rein in the entitlement just a little?

Yeah, your right. They gave us nothing for free. Boy do that help ease the pain and disapointment.<_<

although I kinda wonder......

when did we stop to expect professionalism from Bioware?

I don't see how this can be considered unprofessional.


This is a joke right?

No, please explain it to me.


when a company screws up the professional thing to do is issue a statement  of damage control to avoid situations like this above all if it all stems from an OFFICIAL company site/newslatter

Lookey here, missy.  Your logic ain't welcome 'round these parts, ya got that?

But Feb 1st isn't over! Maybe they're playing with us and it will be released on 11:59pm?!

*begins to make a tent in her office out of printer paper and stolen staplers*

C'mon... Those assumpsions weren't that baseless.

I'm still building a little office supply tent. It will keep my little Buddhist Neko thing warm at night.

And hey, you might still get a demo. Maybe it wasn't ready today. Maybe it was never planned for Feb 1st and this was supposed to be something else.

All I know is Laidlaw said he thought he might get us Lady Hawke's voice before the first of Feb, so I hope that's somewhere in the pipeline.

Or just a 'Sorry, there's no plans for a demo.' That'd have nipped the rumour in the bud and prevented everyone getting excited over this. Seriously, it's hardly PR 101 to say that stopping false rumours quickly is important, or that it might be an idea to prevent your fans getting overly excited over something that's not going to happen.

Ding, ding! End of the work day at Bioware. Alas, no demo or anything else remotely interesting.

Whether or not there is something happening today, it's bound to be a great game when it comes out. It'll be hard to wait, I know, but it'll be worth it when the day finally arrives.

Blah blah...thread can be locked now.


They lock it now and a new one will pop up.:bandit:

I doubt it. This is no longer an issue up for debate. As certain as we were with one random picture that there would be a demo, as certain we can be after EA Czech's announcement as well as DA Legends' that there will be no demo.

Now go home and start the crying already!

They gave info and a slightly later stage of development of the Facebook game. I agree that it's a bit underwhelming, but since I don't see that I'm entitled to receive anything from them in the first place, I'm not going to take that disappointment and get upset at them over it.

edit: bad wording...

This is almost as good as "More July 9, 2008"



Which my bookmark straight to the DA page is still labeled as, because it amuses me.



Rage more, you crazy rage diamonds.
