If Inquisition ends up becoming Dragon Age's "Mass Effect 3", what will you do? Will you still have faith in Bioware?
I'm not asserting it'll be good or it won't be good, just curious.
As for myself, if DA:I flops as badly as ME3 did, I think by then I'd lose hope in Bioware's future installments.
Alright, make a statement and then don't defend it. Listen if you didn't like other aspects of the game other then the ending then that's cool. It's your opinion. But don't state it as a fact (I'll apologize if mine came off that way too) or say that people are in error if they don't think the way you do. I thought the game was very good except for the ending. I'm not wrong in my opinion and I don't think I'm wrong in saying other people felt the same. You are obviously not one of them.
Relax guys. I would much rather him do what he did (point it to a different thread) than to continue taking this thread an an off topic tangent that would likely result in the thread getting closed.
It's important to remember (in general) that all statements along these lines are opinions, even if not explicitly stated and even if stated bluntly or tersely.
The longer we go without information, the more negative I feel towards the game. In September after races, a big beautiful world with exploration, choices that matter, etc...had been talked up I was feeling really good about it like they were listening to fans and making a game that I would love, but now I'm getting really bitter again and can't help thinking "it will suck like DA2 and ME3 and be geared towards some weird mishmash of angry birds and CoD players" >_<
This is an interesting perspective and one I'm not sure I entirely understand. Why would the opinion deviate so much in the absence of new information? Though I have a feeling that doing something like we did at PAX would reset the scale back to where it was.
I could understand perhaps a decline in interest (i.e apathy), but not a cynicism (i.e. antipathy). Can you elaborate?
Good thing for source control 
Just as an observation, I think that if you're unsure about BioWare waiting for price drops and other feedback is precisely what a responsible consumer should do. It's up to us to make a game you want to play.
I don't, they are stupid. You're hedging your bets on the promise that the "developer will deliver". Sure there's time to cancel it but either way the very concept of preordering is pretty dumb. You're basically paying for a game from which you have no idea if it will be good or bad (things can look good and still be bad), just to get it early and maybe to get some extra gimmicks that are worthless. Once you realize the game is bad, there's no point, the developers already have your money, even if you returned you'd get less that what you paid for.
Why lose some at all? Avoid the pre-order, then see if the game is good or not and then decide on that. What do you lose really? Not having it early, some gimmick that will turn up to be useless in the end? Pre-orders are a waste of money, the very idea behind is ridiculous.
I don't typically preorder either, but it depends on whether or not one considers the additions (if any) to be worthless.
If it's a game that I definitely want to get early (which doesn't come around too often) and expect to buy Day One, and there's an incentive that I care about, then I'll preorder.
Obviously part of that thought process involves my history with the game company and the level of trust I have with them. Same with things like Kickstarters.
At this point I think it's safe to say that some people will consider games compariable. Other people will see the games as having enough distinction that the comparisons are less useful based upon those differences.
