I don't have the video but here is the transcript....

Bioware Developer Diary ---> We believe there is only one type of
gamer. One that gives us his money. We don't really break them out any
further than that. Once we reach a point in development where we have
met that requirement, we stop developing and shift to marketing. That
usually comes a good year before we actually ship the game. We use that
time to create fancy CGI trailers that have no relation to how the final
game will actually look. We also use music in these that you will never
hear in the game. We then move to DLC creation. We use the the reverse
formula for "biggest bang for your buck" which we call "biggest buck for
a small bang". To explain, we create little items for the game that add
nothing to the experience. We even use armor from other games! Even
sci-fi games! We call that "cross genre milking" and it works like a
charm. Our company motto is "You can always milk a blind sheep". That's
how we like our gamer community. It has done wonders for our
profitability. Check out our next dev diary where we will discuss our
new expansion "Dragon Age 2: Sheep Charge In".     

Head over to the EA Store to pre-order now and get your free sheep collar that gives you "Stamina +10, Inteliigence -10"

Wow....another totally "new" way to insult Bioware.

We never see that anymore, given how respectful, constructive and polite this forum has become as of late.-_-

I see both this forum and the other non-registered game owner forum are still in the sorry state.

It would be funnier if it was in good taste but like most "humour" on this side of the forums, it's too tongue-in-cheek to be entertaining.

Don't you guys have something better to do than rage against this game?

Well at least the OP is creative. The poster however is completely off the mark regarding the DLC items since all of them were free and as insult to Bioware fans it is rather inefficient. I expect a little more subtlety so that there is a small chance that forum members mistake the intention of the poster.

I would say 2/5.

I give your snark 1 out of 10 mangiraffedogs. Way too much effort for way too little kick.

Is that supposed to be funny or something? Yeeeeeeeeees, because expecting manners and constructive posts totally makes me a "Sheep". Just grow up. :?

I will gift you with this small rock wheel, which you may use to grind your axe alone in your room with the only person that cares.

Please try again when you can come up with something that's actually entertaining.

Here's an idea...how about the people who are outraged by threads with deceptive titles and inflammatory content PM a moderator or developer about it, while those who agree with the intent of said post go post constructively elsewhere, as to not encourage trolls.

Wouldn't that be lovely?

Because the moderators shouldn't have to spend their time investigating 75% of the content around here? They do have lives and other jobs to attend to.
