You people are scary :)
They throw the dog a bone and the forum is all smileys now :D

Feb 23rd is just a step before the game itself comes out, whats the big deal?
The real problem is the lack of info untill now and then.
I'm a big RPG fan in general, wether pnp or electronic, I am was reall interested in the title, but the promo releases so far are of little to no interest to me. Which I find underwhelming, unsatisfying and...

And the marketing, it seems to me, gags on a dwarf's cooooo-co-co-co-co-KO!


Its not ALL smileys Posted Image


:);)B):P:lol::o:wizard::happy::wub::D=]^_^
They sure look like their smiling to me.

For those of you who  have seemingly changed your opinion of BioWare on such a small decision made by them; if you do so hate them so much now, why are you still on the forum?

Seriously. We're getting the demo. Just be happy with that. I seriously don't know why you're still complaining about it. No matter how pissed you are, no matter how much you complain, the decision still exists, and the game is still going to be incredible.

Move on already. (By the way, this was only directed to the few who are still complaining.)

Also, since there are only a few complaining people left, I feel the urge to say; I TOTALLY CALLED IT! I said this would be blown over by the morning, and what do you know? It's 4:08 AM here, and it's almost blown over.  :lol:


Its because its 4:am and the complainers are sleeping, duh, you didnt call jack
you also dont "KNOW" that this game is going to be incredible. how could you? we know next to nothing about it.
Why am I still here? because nobody else makes RPG's that are worth anything. Imy task is the futile one of trying to keep Bioware on its correct path (its original one) not this new EA-Bioware one

anyways dont worry bout banning me Bioware like you so unfairly did to others today. Im going to bed now. Later on sheep

I never complained anyway, other than with an air of impatience.



But it is really nice to be right in the end. All the people who said that the Norwegian, Finnish and Danish banners were a hoax/scam/EA server hack can suck it.

Whaddya mean, fickle? They should slap down sixty dollars because the trailer was cool?



Typically there is TONS more info out about a game before it reaches this point in it's pre-market wind up. Bioware knows this, they've been around the block.



Heck, I've seen more gameplay for Diablo 3 than DA2, and that probably won't come out this YEAR, let alone this month.

It seems utterly pointless to me to play the demo 2 weeks before the actual game gets released. If we had it now, yes that would make sense because there is still more than a month to wait.

Slap in the face to us fans.

No, no.

The demo is for Gamestop Employees now. On the 23rd the demo is available for everyone. Gamestop employees get it first because they get hands on knowledge about the game before everyone else so they can sell it to their customers.

Correction. It hits Gamestop employees on the 11th but reaches us on the 23rd.

......................

:huh:

Still seems rather pointless to me. I don't understand why they're getting it early and I don't really want to play a demo 2 weeks before the game releases.

I remember the days when I used to be so excited picking up my copy of various imported PC gaming magazines (later PCPowerPlay) and being able to play demos of games way before they were released and making a list of games I would like to buy.



Now, all we have to go on is some random tid bits of information and *exclusive* pre-order bonuses.



Give people a chance to play the game first. Let them decide from the game itself whether they want to buy it or not. They let you test drive a car first, they let you borrow expensive art for a time first, they let you hear / see snippets of music / movies on iTunes, the let you taste samples in the supermarket of new products, the let you walk around in shoes before you buy...I could go on for days probably....



A demo can only be a good thing to get people on board.



Note: This isn't so much as a post about DA2 as it is a rant about the lack of demos for games these days..Yes there are some, but used to be every game had a demo.

Tell me this (there are no Gamestops in my country):

From what I understand, Gamestop employees are impressionable young un's just like us, very prone to bias and the jumping to of conclusions. Are they seriously expecting them to criticize and scrutinize the demo and sell it to customers in an unbiased way?

And if my assumption is correct, isn't this a risky move? People are going to go to Gamestop because they believe they will get an inside opinion, and the employees are going to be either dismissive or fanboyish.

Does it really add to the game's selling potential/Gamestop's purchases?

(No offense to anyone who works there, this is just my opinion based off the internets)

The internet seems to hate Gamestop and overexaggerates how bad it is, they are bad employees from time to time there but that's everywhere. The Gamestop employees are still trying to get a sale at the end of the game, whether they care for the game or not, so playing the game will allow them to give a more informed view on the game.
