But that's you. Personally, I'm vastly more interested in gameplay and story than graphics (Goldeneye for N64 is still the best first person shooter ever, despite the fact that the graphics were out of date then).
Graphics are cute, but they become irrelevant after several hours of gameplay, mere background noise.
True, but they are still needed as the gaming industry progress.
as slimgrim put it "if they release the same graphics as of now in 2-3 years, it will become a laughing stock"
Granted, but let's look at the graphical upgrade between DAO and DA2, shall we? On the same engine, and it is a massive improvement.
Ergo, I'm not too worried. But BioWare will probably purchase a modified engine for DA3. Let some other poor bastard do the hard work, and then modifiy if for their needs.
