I guess this thread is meant to build upon hope by those who understand disappointment & therefore share similar experiences, ultimately encouraging one another to lead to hope. I'd strongly put my hope in BioWare in the past like many others. I feel robbed & empty after DA2 & ME3 as an end result. I want BioWare to succeed despite feeling conflicted of their posthumous indigence surrounding quality.
My feelings exactly, it just seems to have been all downhill since origins. I've been a huge Bioware fan since Baldur's Gate, and I want DA3 to be like origins where I put in hundreds of hours on multiple characters, but honestly the way things have been going the last few years I find it hard to get my hopes up. DA2 and ME3 were pretty much the end for my hopes of more solid rpg based games, instead of just a game with a few rpg elements. Everything now is all about presentation and flashiness, everything "mainstreamed" to maximize sales, and needs to have multiplayer, real strategy and depth come second. Forget a game that will kick your ass as well, truly difficult games are very much a rarity these days.
Still, there is a small part of me that clings to hope for DA3, not a lot of info is out yet, but it is starting to sound more like DA2 than origins, definitely goiung to be one to rent first rather than buy.
