At least they didn't announce a delay on release.

No, that's the surely second announcement for today surely? ;)

I mean they already announced that the SE doesn't include the pre-order items today. I figured they were going for a whole day of disappointments to get them out of the way for 2011?


What's that?

Sorry, missed a few words hence the edit.

What I meant to write was "unless youe retailer is explicitly offering it", then it's not included in the SE.

Don't get too excited about the game (As if anyone already was). You can only do 3 battles at a time, the loot drops are horrible and you can't upgrade the equipment of your companions. All you can do with your money is build your castle and have them make better and more potions faster.

To buy actual upgrade equipment, you have to pay REAL money to get credit to do so. After every battle, the two companions you choose will be unavailable for 2 to 4 hours, effectively limiting the number of battles you can do in one sitting at 3. That of course doesn't address the fact that visiting any location takes energy, which also recharges over time.

Of course, you can always use REAL money to buy more energy to do more encounters, but there's 0 point as you can't use any of your companions until they recharge. Of course, you can charge into battle alone and die every time if you like.

Finally, you can inexplicably visit the castles of all of your companions and your quest giver and lust after all of the crap they have. That's all you can do though, just visit. So, it's just a tease.

As soon as I unlock the items, I'm done with it.


Ugh. Honestly, I wouldn't mind a facebook game (I enjoyed the Assassin's Creed one, for instance), but I really don't like the sound of this one. Plus, trying to get us to use REAL MONEY on a freaking facebook game is just bs


We have to use real money? Good thing I got a Facebook Gift Card for free

I think it is an official rule now: the more epic the build-up for a Bioware announcment is, the more epic is the fail.

*shakes fist*
Had me all panicked for a moment. Was like ":O", then the edit came, and was like ":huh:". Now it's like ":lol:".

Ah, ok.  Thanks for clarifying.  And I am sorry to hear about that.  I don't know why Amazon.co.uk shouldn't have the same policy as Amazon.com, and it is rather absurd for them not to participate.

As another poster mentioned, I've already played the beta and I'm not very impressed by it. Boo... I was really hopping for a demo. :(

It's obviously not just amazon.co.uk (other retailers here are also not offering it) but they just happened to be the one there was already a topic about (so I referred to it in the PM).

Well, the build-up raises the expectations pretty high, so the range of disappointment is higher. Still, I've expected more than this from a date that you put on a flyer.
There is still time for a demo or CC release though - not just today, but we still have over a month to go until DA2 comes out.

...I'm happy to hear that you're doing a new beta for your facebook game. I guess? I mean, yay. I like facebook games, sure. Although I've heard some rather horrible comments about this one.



...but this is it? Really? After all the mystery, we don't even get fem!Hawke's voice? C'mon!

Don't all Facebook games do that?  And isn't that why they universally suck? 

Facebook games are nothing but cynical cashcows.

I couldn't imagine the old BioWare getting involved in shenanigans like this.

Who the hell announces facebook games on a leaflet in a full blown game expansion with the date of 01.02.2011? Do you guys understand that this isn't even a fb game announcement, it's its closed beta announcement of the game you've been, open beta testing? What do you ****ing expect me to think of such jokes? I am not one for complaining, but well EVEN bazaar was better than this. Seriously I don't understand marketing these days. Some sort of sick sick joke this is.
