Doubt it. Dragon Age Inquisition was not a failure sales wise and massive step up from Dragon Age 2. The next Mass Effect is almost guaranteed to be a cash cow unless they really manage to screw something up before release. All the people who still complain about ME3 are destined to buy the next one anyway, perhaps after reviews though.

 

 

They have a new IP coming up which could potentially be a winner and they have managed to make money off SWTOR due to cash shop. Compare all of that to Maxis's recent achievements and it can not compare. Bioware is safe for at least their next few games releases.

in the year 2175 we all will die in the potato uprising.

[mybudgee]

Yes

Oh shut up.

 

...

 

We all know it's going to be carrots.

 

Of course you would know, Sim.

 

Seeing as it'll be your fault and all.

Everything dies, deal with it.

I am definitely concerned for Bioware.  One significant failure, and poof -- Bioware will be nothing but a memory.  EA is literally Satan of the games industry and Bioware is in bed with them.  It WILL happen to Bioware eventually.

Inquisition was not a raging financial success. For all the hype and the GOTYs thrown at it, the reception from the general gaming community has been lukewarm. And I think sales reflect that.

 

It's been three and a half months since release and the only DLC news there has been is a vague "we're working on something" comment. Whereas Origins and Dragon Age II had story DLC released or officially announced already by this point.

 

Then there's the news of Gaider being shifted to another project. Now that could have a million different meanings (as could their cancelled project) but for a studio with supposedly wind at their back and more Doritos-approved accolades you can shake a Mtn Dew bottle at, they have been uncharacteristically silent with their marketing and advertising.

 

Perhaps it's a directive after the disastrous Dragon Age 2 and Mass Effect 3 marketing campaigns. But I sense all is not well in BioWare land. Mass Effect 4 might make or break them.

 

Of course I could be wrong, just an opinion.

It's mildly amusing to me that people remember things so very differently when it helps them make their opinion look better. I personally seem to recall the BSN aglow with moral outrage that content was so clearly cut from the games (Dragon Age Origins and II) to use as unashamed cash-grab DLC and that Bioware would fail miserably for certain.

 

As for me, as long as they keep making games I enjoy playing, I'll keep buying them. *shrug*

I remember the rage too, I'm thinking from a business perspective moreso than a consumer one. I don't purchase BioWare games anymore, and I don't begrudge those who do.

 

A company owned by EA will attempt to profit whenever it can, the lack of a clear vision for future Inquisition products is a little unsettling considering both Origins and Dragon Age 2 had DLC roadmaps already laid out at this point. Maybe Inquisition already has, and they're just keeping it from us, which I accepted was a possibility.

 

It's not a matter of "BIOWER SUXXX" or "I LUB BIOWARE" or anything like that, it's just unusual to see a company be completely silent considering how many accolades Inquisition has gotten from the mainstream gaming press. Why aren't they leveraging the momentum they supposedly have?

Nein, Sim!

Definitely potatoes.

Humans beings have 46 chromosomes, which is 2 less than the common potato. Goddamn potatoes are intelligent. No wonder the little shiits can grow everywhere.

Arming yourself with a potato peeler won't help, I know. But that's a different story. :|

If it's potatoes. Then it'd be the first thing in human history that wasn't Sim's fault... unless if he's setting us up for a surprise potato invasion and getting us to destroy our allies and saviours carrots.

Screw Sim and his Trojan Potato tactics, I'm not risking it.

 

 

Would you risk it?
