I only expected a 30 second teaser trailer at best, so this surpassed my expectations. People comparing it to Fallout 4 need to relax, Fallout 4 is releasing in 5 months.

IGN Just confirmed that Bioware will not be talking about ME:A until towards the end of the year (Nov/Dec timeframe) so that little press release we just got will have to hold us over for another 5 months or so. 

 

Take that for what you want, but it just keeps getting worse. 

 

I guess I should just change my focus/attention to SWTOR or Fallout 4 and possibly Deus Ex: Mankind Divided for the time being. I know I am whining but this really sucks, that Holiday 2016 really is just a place holder because we all know that it will be delayed into 2017 and I don't mean Jan/Feb 2017 but deep into 2017 like May 2017 which would mean the game is like 2 years away!

 

I am sort of wishing that ME:A was never "teased" last year at E3 and that Bioware should have done like Bethesda did with Fallout 4. Give us tidbits and hints that a new game is coming, but don't fully reveal it until its ready to launch. What makes FO4 so great is that we are a week removed from it being officially announced and we get it in less than 4 months. If anything, they should have just teased/announced a ME Trilogy remastered game and just use that to hold us over for the ME:A announcement. Now we got a  possible 2017 release for ME:A and NO announcement for a remastered trilogy. 

 

Bioware was able to do this with the Star Wars: Knights of the Fallen Empire announcement. They kept that under wraps for a long time and they just revealed it and guess what? We are getting it in October....not 16-22 months from now.

 

Personally this felt more like EA trying to stimulate something for the investors rather than for the fans. 

 

I have to say, I am really let down by this.

So you'd prefer having less information? Why would that be better?
