Part I- There was some posts on BW forums, seen elsewhere also, about bioware seeking talent for background artists and other similar type stuff to work on DA3 in Edmonton. It came in tweet form from someone at Bioware, and given the tendency of people to completely say and do incredibly stupid things on twitter, especially if say they were supposed to be a secret, this seems legit to me. I'm sure the guy who let it slip is now buried in a ditch in Guatemala.

There is no speculation, secret or slip-up here, it was really announced via Twitter:

 80 million spent on it so far.

I don't know how much truth is there in this article but it is an interesting read anyway :

I heard that too. And it is confirmed to come out 31 February 2013

You're freaking joking. Here's hoping this is just an estimate, and not the final date. I'll maintain my reservations until some info-trickle gets going. If this is another bull-rush with Hawke, I'll be very disappointed. DA2 wasn't horrible, but it wasn't great, and by no means should be the framework for DA3.

He said FEBRUARY THE 31st. Man you are a dumb dumb. And these so called 'hardcore fans' like to pretend they are so much more intelligent than 'casual' gamers and they don't even know how many days there are in each month. Absolute disgrace.

I can read, idiot; I question if you can. I don't understand where this vitriol of yours comes from; the context of your reply seems to imply I stated a date that contradicts the quoted. A puerile finger-point. I simply said it's still too soon for another full-blown installment; I maintain that stance. Also, I never once stated I was a hardcore fan, nor implied such in my post. Furthermore, I never disparaged 'casuals' anywhere in my message. You may want to re-read it a few times and ruminate, carefully.

You're simply being speculative and hopping on the defensive, reading far too into things and twisting them for the sake of your own vapid machinations. Take your silly vendetta elsewhere.

And... this proved what? I don't take it as confirmation from a second-hand source, like a poster on the forums. Or a post on Twitter from some little-known employee. Let them officially out it on the forums, or in a magazine, or on a well-known site. For me, nothing's been confirmed; that John Epler quote that regarded it as speculation is the word I'll take for the time being. Besides, dates change. Look at F.E.A.R 3. Delayed three times--and likely more to come--despite the fact it was 'confirmed' for March of this year.

Also--just food for thought--take into consideration that 'confirmation' could have been a poor choice of wording from the poster (no offense to said poster). It happens.

Don't bother with this guy, seriously. He was banned for a few days because his contributions to this froums are jsut the staple he offers right here in this thread, nothing. As far as DA3 coming out in early 2013, I'd say that is a bit longer between releases than DA2 was from Origins, like almost a year, but I still feel that isn't enough time. Making game is a long process, and unless they  cut corners, it would take much longer. I will wait months before getting that game by reading what other gamer thoughts are, and I don't count on gaming site reviews.

I wonder if they release demo for tia s well, the one for DA2 may have killed sales.

31st or not, I do enjoy how you're picking that out above everything else I've written. Find yourself with only one ace? And to clear things up, by estimate I meant the month. It's too early in the year. As the 31st is often utilized as a placeholder for where the company's aims are targeted, the word 'estimate' fits it aptly.

That's just you trying to flip things around, and minimize the blatant idiocy of your posts. You know, "if I point enough and laugh at that person, everyone else will follow."

Ah, I see. I'll file that away for future reference.

As for it being a short dev-cycle... as I said in an earlier post, I agree. It's a bit better than DA2's, granted, but I still don't feel it's enough to produce a decent follow-up to Origins. Here's hoping it gets delayed a few times. I want them to take their time with this and craft a solid product--not turn it into another uninspired mess. I'll probably hold off on the game as well, unless the information they release piques my interest and shows a tangible improvement in the content.

Well, I have been a Bioware devotee since BG in 98 and never looked back. ME2 gave me the first real taste (though ME did as well) of how I didn't like the direction Bioware was going. At least ME2 followed the story structure and game play style of ME. After BG2, Bioware RPGs became an automatic purchase. After DA2, ME3 will not be, even though I am anticipating the game; I will wait for gamer reviews. If be, I will buy ME3 when it is like an Ultimate Edition of Origins more than a year after its release.

I just won't dump money automatically anymore. Bioware can make the games they want, anyway they want, and I want for them to do well, but I am not channeling my dollars to them, if this is the direction they are taking with their games.

I'm with you there, though I was one of a few BG-players who loved Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2. Dragon Age 2 was my wake-up call, however; after that debacle, I decided I was going to be very, very cautious in future purchases. I still have a bit of faith in Bioware; it's not utterly diminished. Every company has ups and down--some longer than others.

I got BG right when it was released in late 98 (November is when it came out, IIRC), I spent nearly all of the last month and as half of 98 playing it. I anticipated that game big time when I read about the development of the game.

This. Although I played BG1 in '99.

I remember getting BG after Thanskgiving here in 98 and spent all of December playing it. I didn't want to play antying else I was so addicted.

EDIT: Bioware, please get a properly functioning format for a message board. I hate it when I post replies and the system deletes my text; it is very frustrating.

One thing the 100% need to change is the inclusion of Laidlaw. If he is involved there will be no purchase from me.

[Teddie Sage]

They should hire Bethesda for this one. Just saying.

Absolutely not! While I enjoyed their games, they never really made the the tried and true RPG I am used to. There are aspects in even DA2 (which I really didn't like) that Bethesda just typically ignores in their flavors of RPG. While they do decent work at stat building, character customization, gender choices, etc, they have always had weak storylines and very little character interaction that had larger effects on the gameplay and plots. They do make them that way, jsut not to the depth that I expereinces with Bioware RPGs.

[Archereon]

DA3 is going to suck.  DA:O was a one time thing, I hope you all know that.  The team that worked on DA:O had no right to make even a half decent game, but just so happened to be lucky enough to end up with a Blizzard, maybe even Valve length development window, and were able to produce an excellent, if somewhat flawed game where better teams would produce a masterpiece.  Now that BioWare is owned by EA, there's not a chance in hell that team will get such a large development window.

Plus, it's pretty obvious that EA sees TOR as the All In for BioWare.  If it tanks-and sources seem to indicate it very well could-BioWare's gone.  They'll never be able to get a decent sized budget again, and most of their studios will be closed.  The studio behind Mass Effect might survive, but there's no guarantee it would get the same team, or even a team that would resist the temptation to turn it into a straight up shooter instead of a shooter with heavy RPG elements.

Let's be fair. The people that own Bioware wanted to start doing things EA-style BEFORE they were bought by EA. The Dev who left Bioware and who was the lead on DA:O has said so. Bioware isn't going to do things with Blizzard-like windows because they didn't and don't want to. EA just happens to agree with them.

I hope Dragon Age 3 is more like orgins. An epic rpg game in the spirit of baldurs gates. It would restore my faith on Bioware. I just want them to put an end to this cinematic crap. I'm sick of endless cutscenes and forced linearity. I'm sick of them cutting corners in gameplay. I want pure rpg gameplay and non linear storytelling. I want to explore new locations and create my own avatar.

Ahem sorry for that burst, but talking about DA2 just raises my blood pressure . As for TOR, I fear it is an huge mistake. MMOs are a whole different beast than singleplayer roleplaying games. For insance I'm a long time star wars fan, but I'm not going to put my money on any star wars mmos. Heck I don't play mmos. MMos are boring. No matter how much potential the mmo would have, its usually the other players who ruin the fun..
