Compared to its size there are too many bugs in Awakening.

It goes from simple things like false appearence or stats of items, over quest bugs like the personal quests that don't start, to gamebraking bugs like the missing items of the main char in the mines.

I can't rember that Origins have had such an amount of flaws at release.

How could that happen?

It was released before it was ready to meet a deadline. I keep trying to tell people this on these forums, but nobody will have it.

I lost my stuff in the mines too, so I stole Justice's things.

Ditto.  Some EA marketting genius who knows nothing about programming decided March 16, 2010 was an immovable release date.  Project managers had to fall in line and gut QA to meet that deadline.  I honestly believe that if they had pushed back the release date 2 months, we would have seen a better product in Awakenings.

Too bad theres now way to hold Bioware to account for this. Every review I've seen always painted Awakening in a pretty picture, but those critics never had to worry about buying the game and thus never had to justify the clean cut content per dollar capita.



Kinda depressing really.

Sure there is. Do what I am going to do. Wait until after the next game/expansion/DLC is released and see what the consensus is. Then buy it later when it's marked down if it is worthwhile.

I'm not pre-ordering again. I'm not buying day of release again. Enough people follow my plan EA will get the message quick enough, trust me.

That's my plan as well.  It's about all anyone can do.  Awakenings will be a hit, but that's based on how good Origins is, not how good Awakenings is.
