Why DAI went soooo under the radar during Game Evolution

Hello,

 

So before it's release everyone knew it was coming out, everyone was prepared, and now almost a year after I had sooo low publicity/marketing.

For the 1st and 2nd DLC lets say it was understandable they weren't that big and were kinda auxiliary to the main story but with the 3rd DLC I found out about it just two weeks before launch.

 

How come such a great game with good and very good rating become such a dustshell title ??? Why the guys from EA marketing are so bad ? This game had huge potential and now to became just a known title as the game "that launched a year a go, I was great but dunno who still plays it" .

 

I really feels like the Game Evolution was just rushed, get over with it as fast as you can....so disappointing.

I don't think that's the issue, personally. I believe the marketing department was given the mandate (or chose this path themselves) to reduce new BioWare DLC hype phase to a shorter and more streamlined experience. Data may have suggested sales might be lost on a $15 price point if an item's presence is made known too early, or some such.

There's always a big picture and we as fans rarely see it all. I do agree it is odd, but yeah.

          At least not a big picture about a good game evolution, maybe a picture about how to make money fast based on the good reviews from the start and finish the project faster, it's Dragon Age we talking about here, huge game, big potential, had everything and now its finished after a year or so with so little marketing and development.

        I mean, c'mon, I was expecting at least 2 big Expansions with new playlable characters, different plots...  but look what they delivered 2 new zones and a somewhat a small  Expansion, it all feels that it was rush and get it over with ....so sad :( . They don't add up as how the game was presented and launched and how is finished now, something got switched along the way and I bet it's the EA HQ at the bottom of this.
