Uhh... I see. You want a million payers for just the demo?

Makes me wonder how many actual purchasers Bioware is targeting. I feel tempted also to point out that reducing the retail price of the game down to the 50-55 range that PC games occupied last year will do much more to boost sales than offering a few in-game items. Oh, and the DRM thing could also-

Nevermind.

I am now satisfied and convinced that the download servers have plenty of capacity to accommodate alot of downloads. Why else announce this one-million download goal?

Oh, you need an EA account for the download to count. Can I persuade my friends to play the demo? Yeah, probably. Register for an EA account though? Not sure... Some people make a big deal out of registering at sites and stuff.

Ummmm, okay . . .are we all now part of the Bioware marketing department?


Yes.  But as an enthusiastic unpaid intern.


Yea - I don't work for free.

And no, I don't mean some piece of DLC, either.

I am so conflicted.



On one hand I want everyone I know to try the demo because I think the writers, artists and techies do great work on Bioware games.



On the other hand I do not like what marketing is doing to the game, and do not want to contribute to anything that they will then use as "evidence" of their awesome marketing techniques.

All you people doing multiple downloads, do one for me, will ya?



Me, I'm going to make like a marketing rep, and spout useless slogans at my XBOX, hoping it makes the game turn on.

Does it count if we download the demo, delete, then download again?

Bait marketing is clever, though I'm sad to see if come to games. I hope the demo includes info for giving feedback so that those who try and decide not to buy can give their reasons.

You realize anytime you speak good of ANY product, not just Bioware/EA, you're acting like their marketing team? NEVER SPEAK GOOD OF ANYTHING AGAIN!!! Posted Image

Were the items available if the million mark is met not utterly worthless and tantamount to an .ini file edit or a console command - this might be worth my time to spread the word.



Furthermore, unless they didn't expect it to reach a million downloads (and subsequent EA account sign ups) - this is classic bait marketing.



I guarantee, had we ignored this challenge and done absolutely nothing to promote the game, the million downloads would be met anyway, as a mere product of the ease and spread of such a demo and the huge base of fans from DA1.

You are absolutely correct.  Good marketing makes that happen.

Luckily, my praise for things is few and far between.  Yes, I am an evil, hate-filled person.  Posted Image

I was already planning on downloading this, but the incentives give me reason to convince my friends to download the demo as well.

How does making a remark to a friend about a demo for a game we like make us entitled and lazy? Posted Image
