Yesterday you would expect it because they made an annoucement.
But the problem is it has been this way for a month solid now. Any fun threads just go straight away because every single retake person feels it's important that they make their own thread to say the exact same thing the rest of them say.
Truth is, most of us are tired of hearing it now. It's just whining. Especially after yesterday. So many threads went on about wanting closure for characters, Bioware promised this and now they want more. They just look ridiculous now.
Ah. I see the problem here.
This is a difference in viewpoints as far as the pourpose of an 'official boards'.
You're primarily here to share views or casual fan discussions with other fans. While others, especially those upset, view this as a place to collect feeback efforts.
Neither one of these ideals is wrong, nor is it impossible for them to co-exist. However, given the current climate about the game, it is not unreasonable that this board, at this time, would be prodominantly feedback based. If you're willing just to engage in friendly discussion, I might reccomend reatreating to more isolated areas of the board, such as discussions in 'groups' sections, as well as possibly character sections.
Hate to be negative about this, but this issue isn't going away soon, and while it can be a bother, it does deserve the attention.
You good sir are extremely articulated, well mannered and well thought out.
You also have registered pretty much every recent Bioware game and you are obviously a concerned fan. I have nothing but respect for you and your opinion.
The majority of the Retake people are not like you at all however. The majority post hateful messages over and over again. They are not articulate. Look at the negative responses in the first page of this thread, almost none of them have registered any Bioware games besides ME2.
You seem to say I am in the minority and neglecting to notice that there is a big difference between concerned fans like yourself, and the majority of the retake movement which are simply trolls from 4chan or wherever who come here to cause upset and hate on EA as they do for every EA product. The same people came when DA2 was released.
It is those people, and not people like yourself, that are causing the problems on the forums and it is those people that I was addressing. The people who have no constructive arguments but "do what i want, do it for free and do it now or i will leave".
The boards would be a better place without them.
