This isn't a dig at either, but I'm just wondering if perhaps BioWare is annoyed with certain of their fans' attitudes. If BioWare have any ill feelings toward us, I hope they don't take it out on Ryder. It would be a clever and subtle way of doing it, taking their anger out on our avatars.

Sometimes it feels like BioWare's a little bit peeved off, maybe rightfully so, maybe not.

I thought it would have showed up a bit more in DAI, and yet I got even more power tripping for the player's sake. Go figure.

[Snorka]

Of course they are, why else do you think they are sending us all to Andromeda?...

[9TailsFox]

Yes they are people and i would think they feel bad if we complain about something they did bad.

[SKAR]

shut up man. You know why.

[SKAR]

It's a conspiracy. In DAI **** the hetero guys but give the ladies Cullen or the gay guys Dorian. Bioware is this because we hammered you back in 2012? Is that what this is about?

Which fans do you mean? Most of Bioware communities are all friendship and candies, it's just BSN which is filled with anger and xenophilia phantasies, like drunk krogan. If Biowarian feels like talking to people, he goes to twitter.

[Laughing_Man]

I'm sure at least some of them are.

What successful media company (doesn't matter if make video games, movies, TV shows, comics, novels, music, plays, toys, or whatever else) probably doesn't get annoyed with it's fanbase at times? Hell there are even start ups that haven't produced a finished product and/or companies that have produced maybe one product get annoyed by their fans.

 

In the end it's how they handle the annoyances and/or criticisms by their fanbase that really matters.

You forgot Tali's sweat.

Or they can go down the Supernatural route and do EXACTLY what the fans say. I'm shocked Sam & Dean haven't had sex already.

[Onewomanarmy]

I know I'd be if I saw and read through this forum, no doubt!

[AngryFrozenWater]

After the ME3 ending? Probably devastated. These people believed in their work. They worked their asses of. They needed some time to grasp what was happening. It must have been emotional. Here's an employee talking about that time:

 

 

Go to 1:02:33 to get to the part I mentioned.

 

Was there anger too? Annoyed? Not BW as a whole, I guess. But these guys are human. So certainly.

[The Hierophant]

I hope so. It would be cool if we were forgotten like the dwellers of one of those unopened vaults in Fallout.

[Ahriman]

Wasn't Bioware encouraging this? "We have no choice but to try for our insatiable curiosity, for our fear in what should happen if we don't." and all that stuff.

Or did they mean something else? Nah...

[Dr. Rush]

They are going to say "we are so grateful to have such passionate fans" but I would secretly hate your guts. I mean, I certainly wouldn't blame them.

Both EA and Bio have access to a ton of metrics that reveal the state of their game player base. It can be simplified to three game states, for, neutral and against... in varying degrees. All of their games will have those same pigeon hole stats. Meaning that as long  as the for+neutral is > than against, the studio+EA are "happy".

 

Peeved off? No, I don't believe Mike Laidlaw was peeved off at the completionists that went after the Shards.... but was rather surprised. 

[DarkKnightHolmes]

It's not so bad. Have you seen the fallout community lately? Now that's toxic.

What for? It's a helluva lot better than the last game (but not NV).

[BatarianBob]

Bioware's fans annoy me, and I have no particular investment in the company or its work. I'd be surprised if they don't hate their fans guts.

As for taking it out on the players avatar, they've done it before. To Revan, specifically. Of course, no one noticed because no one plays SWTOR, but still. Maybe Ryder will have unskippable autodialogue about how much of an idiot and a loser Shepard was.

What was so bad about it? Besides the canonization? I never played (as you said ).

[Beerfish]

In some cases yes and there is nothing wrong with that.  But the BioWare relationship with their fans is much worse now than being angry it is apathy and a big loss of connection with the fans. 

 

Faceless mods who do a lousy job (ignoring topics and posters that should be censured, tossing out infractions for heinous crimes like posting images without words.)

Almost zero BioWare presence on the forums. (Community manager?  Waz that?)

Giving fans little face slaps like just removing off topic with pretty well no notice.

The new strategy of giving almost zero info on games for years and then pounding a gob of info not long before release.

Many fine people work at BioWare but the company has indeed become corpritized.

[10K]

Oh well if they are. There are crazed fans everywhere. EAware aren't the only people dealing with them, it's a part of the industry. You can't expect someone to just shut up about something they dislike, especially when they're hard earned cash is involved.

[Armass81]

Sounds about right.

for it was poorly written is the main reason. and there is no actual reason for Revan or the Jedi Exile to be in Tor.

 

 

[DebatableBubble]

I would be. There are only so many romance threads I'd be able to take.
