Very well said sim . Age is not the issue with what has been going on here. Maturity, tact, common sense and respect are very much at the center of this. Individuals going with this "bandwagon" of openly attacking a member of the development team Mike Laidlaw and some of the comments said ...... are infuriating at best. The fact the discussion is still going in that thread is mindboggling to say the least. Those comments and attacks have to stop, period. I really do not want to bring real life scenarios of how what your doing on these forums is related to these events. As intelligent individuals you can understand that for yourselves. While the internet gives you a voice it does not give you a liscense to say / do to whoever you want however you want. Please for the sake of improving our games we love so much alone. Stop this lynch-mob mentality bullsquat !
I think you're being overly-dramatic, to the point that it's making me wonder why you're getting so emotionally invested in the issue. I think anyone that's even a little rational can agree that outright slandering someone is uncalled for, but nobody forced the man to make some of the comments he made in recent interviews either. And seeing as how they were made in publications that anyone here can access and read for themselves, it stands to reason it's going to be talked about.
You're coming across as an overzealous Internet White Knight with this impassioned raving. Your intentions are good enough, but perhaps you should dial it back a couple notches.
Ok you really dont get it .... I'm very tempted to show you directly... But instead I'll go this route.

I'll give you a hint I highlighted it ....
That sentence doesn't really make sense, so it's kind of hard for me to understand.
And you understand that in a way I'm actually agreeing with what you're saying, right?
I think a couple of things on your comments...
You actually do understand what is being said and for whatever reason are "playing" ignorant. Your 2nd comment kinda eluded to that..
To actually say I'm overly-dramatic on this... getting personally involved .... and more or less he had it comming ....and ...that i should back off and let the cards fall as it were...
IF you are even half the Dragon Age Lore fan I am... You would be standing right with me against this mentality,hardcore!
Let me "paint a picture" for you and everyone else here...
The reason Bioware in fact delivers the quality content they do is there was a demand for bigger and better products. We'll start with DA O .. Lossely based on the themes of JRR Tolkien and DnD they wanted to create a unique rpg with elements used that differed from the usual format. They in fact spent a lot of time on it. It was not bug free ( no game is) even then people complained and moaned about the direction it took. Overall there was more people that bought it than people that bashed it. Fast forward to DA 2. Now the person in charge is tasked with completing the project in a very limited time frame. So .. not only with the limited time frame but also limited resources ( because of resource pooling for TOR ) this is easily one of the most stressful projects on the table. To the best of what they had to work with they delivered the game. It was not 100% polished , it had its in game flaws a few bugs went through some minor some major. The game was still enjoyable still delivered a great story. Was it perfect ...no. Was it playable ....yes. As far as who enjoyed what in the game and how that is up to the player. That said..
The community becomes polarized over their "opinion" of the game. An interview pops up with Mike Laidlaw who really had no choice but to "play neutral" in the questions asked . ( anything else would be biased against him or bioware or ea ) Now some member(s) get the idea in their head that " I paid $60.00 for this game and I didnt like it , lets go remove this Mike Laidlaw from his place of employment in a coo of internet rage" And then the real colors of a "portion" of the community showed . Mike Laidlaw ..who busted his azz along with the team he had to deliver a quality product within the best of his ability within the time frame he had to get you the community and fans your game.
And you wanted to remove him and his staff for what ? Doing their best ? I seen more promise and creativity out of DA 2 than say... that of AoC.. That game although was an mmo, had 5.5 years worth of actual production. DA 2 had what 1.2 years tops ?
So honestly tell me ..... Is what you are doing right ? Or are you in fact just hating..,.. I too paid my $60.00.I am saying my contribution toward Bioware is a good venture . Please do vote with your wallet . Do not buy the game if you hate it so.. BUT ... the community has no right OR grounds whatsoever to attack anyone here on the forums or anyone who works at Bioware . That in itself is pure HATE ! Absolutly NOTHING you say or how you sugar-coat that makes it right on any level !
