He wrote Ender's Game, got rich and everything after that was garbage. And he went crazy.

Why not use writers from Bioware?

I don't get this one either. Bioware's writers are plenty competent. Maybe they're not all destined to write literary masterpieces but I'm pretty sure they can handle a comic book based on one of their own video games.

While I appreciate the vote of confidence, we're pretty busy.

As for how anyone feels about Orson Scott Card's personal views, they're not very relevant to the work at hand unless it's being used as a platform for those views (which it is not). If someone really feels that the politics of a writer and their creative endeavours can't be seperated, that's up to them, but eliminating anyone from being eligible to work on a creative project simply because someone might find their personal views objectionable isn't something we're prepared to do.

I think it's everyone's right to pass on material made by someone they object to, by all means. Discussions about Orson Scott Card's views, however, are not really Dragon Age-related... and that's really the point. Please take such a discussion to Off Topic. Thanks!
