I have always been a fan of Bioware's games and Mass Effect 1 and 2 are my favourite story driven games of all time, Dragon Age: Origins is not far behind.
With the extreme disappointment which was Dragon Age 2 (to completely change and redesign the game, combat, graphics, story i.e nothing to do with wardens) i was left disappointed by the game and did not expect such a mediocre game from Bioware, I put it down to a hiccup.
Now with the news of kinect and multiplayer in Mass Effect 3 i believe my fears are being confirmed that Bioware has stopped being the story driven RPG developers i use to love. I do not believe it is EA that has turned Bioware into this, i believe Bioware have just become greedy and want a larger slice of the market and a wider audience (they were quoted on saying they want the COD audience) but by doing this they seem to be completely alienating and betraying the fans that made them what they are today and the fans who have followed them for years.
I now believe Bioware is a good developer, not a godlike developer who make games they believe in and love. They are now making games for money and profit like many other good developers do. Bioware seem to no longer be in the elite of development studios.
I am sure Mass Effect 3 will be a good game as was Dragon Age 2, but by standards Bioware set, good is a severe disappointment from this once great studio. Thank god we still have Bethesda.
Bioware, A developer in decline?

Not really Mass Effect 3 related. Moving to our Off-Topic forum.

We have, actually. Or wait, since we stopped making adventure games. Or wait, since we started making RPGs. Or wait, since we started doing more action RPGs. Or wait, since we started doing premium modules. Or wait, since we stopped doing D&D games. Or wait, since we decided to start making sci-fi games. Or wait, since we got bought by EA.
If you really think about it, according to the internet, we've been "declining" since the first Baldur's Gate.
