Hypothetically, if EA were farm out the Mass Effect IP, what studio would you want on the franchise?

Ideally I would love an independent BW without EA greedy fingers all over them.

I think people overstimates sometimes how much of (possibly, not everyone has the same opinions) the things they didn't like in the recent Bioware games were EA's fault, and not Bioware's fault. I don't think that all the problems (different) people had with Bioware games would've been magically fixed if they weren't part of EA.

That is the unfortunate truth of it. What Bioware needs is the same space and budget a developer like Naughty Dogs gets from Sony. If that relationship existed between the two there would be almost no issues here. Atleast lately Bioware has gotten decent development time for both DA:I and now this. We'll see if it helps in the long run. 

True, the major problem with EA was the short development time, which seems to be fixed by now. 

I do think though that plently of the complaints people made about recent Bioware's games was about the latter's decisions. For example, the major complaints about MP in ME3 was about the need to play that mode to achieve one ending, which isn't EA's fault of forcing (if they did) MP on Bioware, but the latter.

 

I don't really want to defend EA, which reputation is bad even without considering Bioware, but I think people should give Bioware more responsability for some of the faults they might've found in their recent games.

I don't think EA is any worse than any other major publisher out there though, but they are all better than Ubisoft. Still Bioware has to take some responsibility, and they are going through major changes that may never pay off, or will take a few years to pay off.

 

I just hope they've learned from Mass Effect 3 and DA:I. I don't think they are bad games, and plenty of moments in both shows what still lives inside Bioware, problem is that the moments are few and far between. Still i have faith in Andromeda and wherever Dragon Age goes next, and if they truly are the Bioware quality we know from the past, well then who doesn't love a good comeback story?

Obsidian but only if they turned it into Alpha Protocol in space.

It would also probably be on a single console like ME1. Which would probably be a MS exclusive.

I have to admit AP choice and consequence system was the best I've seen for that time. Choices mattered and altered the story pretty well. To bad it received bad ratings, I would have loved if they made a sequal.

Skyrim is extremely repetitive, has bad voice acting, bad writing, a garbage UI.... boredom should set in very soon.

Obsidian. FO:NV and KOTOR 2 (with the restored content mod, of course) were good games. Though I wouldn't say no to a Telltale spinoff either.

It's what DA2 should have been

The fact that DA2 got such a short development time is a think that will always bother me, because I want to see what they'd have done with a proper development time. Not that it wouldn't have problems, but the dev time constrained Bioware a lot for that game.

Very true.

Luckily, there is the Nexus.

Elhanan's head would explode.


Not opposed to CRPR; simply the excessive content they chose to utilize for the TW series. I use GOG far more than some other gaming stores, but I do not purchase or play those games.

I swear this mod alone added several hundred hours to the game for me.

Holy shitzu--just for that, I need to play Skyrim again. Will I be able to actually play something other than a stabby Dunmer rogue this time? Probably not! I'm consistent!

 Obsidian to write it. Bethesda to develop it. Somebody to fix the bugs.

My favorites were the audio and visual overhauls and the immersion mods. Makes skyrim truly a new game especially the cold weather and survival mods like Wet and Cold etc. Also had fun modding the hell out of being a vampire in Dawnguard for my own Skyrim Vampire edition.

Obsidian would do the Mass Effect IP justice specially for those that are looking for a ME1 style experience. This along with the depth seen in Fallout New Vegas' presentation of factions etc makes one wonder what the studio could do with the Mass Effect lore.

Why on earth would you go and hype me up for something that will never happen? For f**k sake, tehturian.
