I think people just are finding it so hip and trendy to bash EA that they're looking for any excuse to do so.   I think looking at how a great game like Mass Effect 3 gets universally condemned because of it's ending despite the fact that Bioware listened to fan feedback and provided clarification for the ending leads me to believe most Bioware fans like to think they're being victimized by a company that makes a living providing products that entertain people.

EA is not above criticism but I think the sheer level of hatred towards EA is so astronomical that the Bioware fan base has effectively closed their mind, refusing to even give anything a chance.  Rather like young Earth creationist have come to a conclusion first and now are looking for any justification they can find to support their pre-determined conclusion.

Frankly,  I think a lot of people will bash Dragon Age III just so they can give themselves an excuse to pirate the game.  They'll say it sucks and they're so glad they saved their money by pirating it first yet they'll play through the main campaign at least twice.  Maybe a small handful will end up buying it on steam but only once it's for sale for 5 dollars.

Kotor was supposed to be a trilogy.

Not sure where people get this idea, unless it was something Lucasarts wanted to do. BioWare wrapped the main story up pretty neatly with the original game.

I hope it ends up being the best crpg ever made. I doubt it will be, of course, but i am still having hopes.

As for EA getting hatred...its well deserved.

Dragon Age III still deserves a fair chance regardless of what people think of EA.  However, I do not think most fans will do that because they want Dragon Age III to suck because they want to see EA suffer not taking into consideration that it is Bioware who will suffer far worse.

honestly... its in all gamers interest if ea is wiped from the map and its actually worth losing, the now souless, studio bioware to achieve that aim

Hmmm, as a gamer, it'd certainly not be in my best interests to be unemployed as that'd certainly undermine my ability to purchase new games!

Jokes aside, wishing for me and my colleagues to become unemployed isn't really a productive perspective on these forums and I'd encourage those that want to see us burn to just move along since in the long run I can't see much productive coming out of sticking around.

I have no beefs with criticism (no game is perfect).  Criticism is okay and encouraged.  Coming around to tell me you wish I was out of a job because you think it's in your best interests as a gamer, not so much.

Caiden they might be thinking: out of sight, out of mind. It seems the developers don't want us to discuss the lack of atheist and racial options in Dragon Age, considering how they close the threads even when people are addressing their options without turning the discussion into a bitter feud. I didn't see any reason for the racial thread to be closed when people were civilly addressing their opinions on the matter. It's starting to become ridiculous.

If you have greivances with my moderating, send me a PM and state your case, instead of showing Sid Meier that he's right that gamers are paranoid.

What I see are people being petulant towards one another in a way that is poison to the community.  The most recent one wasn't just "I want multiple races" but was then used as evidence that "BioWare isn't listening" and when counterarguments were presented, suddenly it was turning into "race selection is THE MOST IMPORTANT THING of all bioware games" and nevermind the "DA2 didn't have race selection and look how poorly it did."

This isn't civil discussion.


Having said that, your concern has been noted.
