Oooooooo. It's a new home for the trolls. The Brothel Thread was getting unwieldy, I agree.

i couldn't say to be honest, and i can't have a "focused neutral/objective as i can opinion" in this matter, cause if i tell you the truth i don't care honestly what direction they take, so either way i have no worrisome or expectations about it.
the only think i can say for certain, is, that they are on the thin ice.

Im sorry, but this thread isnt intended to be positive or negative but rather speculative. Whatever you perceive it to be is beyond my control. That does not seem to be the sole purpose, though. Or am I wrong? Who let you out of discord?

I doubt it. I'm worried about the expansions and the NEXT DA...after 4...if there is. I dont care if DA5 is a MMO that closes out the story, as long as DA4 is 100% SP. BioWare has stated that with DA and their stories, they tend to plan three games in advance or at least in this case: DA4 and DA5. They have some sorta rough outline in place for DA4 and DA5. Of course this doesn't mean that DA5 will be a guarantee, but interesting regardless. "There is no planned ending for DA" "There is an evolving plan that tends to look two games ahead or so." Mike Laidlaw www.eurogamer.net/articles/2017-08-11-bioware-already-has-plan-for-theoretical-dragon-age-5Note: that this story is before his departure.

Depends how they did it tbh much like anything, if it was done like Guild Wars 1 where you could take npc companions out into the world, a world that you will only see yourself an you only see other players in hubs or you could forgo the npc in favour of teaming with friends/family, i would play that.
Tbh i would play a DA mmo if it ws on console or a DA akin to destiny, multiplayer/co-op games dont bother me it only when it competitive MP that i get turned of

Yeah I don't think so, EA has been putting singleplayer portions in their games, like Battlefront 2, Titanfall 2 and all their sport games, makes no sense otherwise, plus another multiplayer game from Bioware with SWTOR and Anthem(maybe smoking the good stuff but I thought they confirmed you can play solo at least)?, yeh I find it hard to believe plus I thought DA multiplayer just doesn't work, well for me anyway, it just sucked, nothing good like Mass Effect.

It's a valid concern, I suppose. Apparently DAI was originally intended to be MP only, so BioWare did - and possibly still does - clearly have an interest in a MP-oriented game.
Obviously some people would probably enjoy such a game, but personally I wouldn't. I've played DAMP and MEAMP, and while they were fun enough, they didn't really hold my interest. So I hope BW sticks to a SP-focused DA series.

Is there a Generic Random Complaint Generator that mixes and matches common gaming fears and phobias with game titles or something?
This one takes the cake, and deserves extra-credits for attempting to take a pot-shot at two Bio games in a single post, but for the record, to, as some fans would put it, call out obvious lies, SWTOR has solo version of all story Flashpoints, and all heroics are solo, and that has been like that for close to two years now.
The Operations while tons of fun really did not do anything to hamper the story progression. They were an interesting side-story for what you have seen in the lore. The paid DLCs lock out way more content than that in MET and DA2/3. SWTOR is perfectly enjoyable solo, and you'd never feel a burning need to play MP unless you actually love MP.
If anything, SWTOR in its current state is a shining example of how to run an on-line game mainly for a solo player. It's strongly SP-focused with other players really just helping to enliven the maps, moving in random fashion.
So, if anyone is afraid of trying SWTOR because of MP component hiding a part of your story, please, do not be. THE OP IS LIEING about SWTOR gods only know why.
Pricing, being only on PC & combat are issues, obviously, but certainly not "forced" MP content or an illusion that OMG, story is locked out behind the Heroics (ha-ha-ha).

Very disappointed if that was the case. Multiplayer anything isn't an option for me. 1) Our internet is so slow to be laughable. 2) Since I mostly play on Xbox, you have to pay extra to do multiplayer. It doesn't sit right with me that you have to pay extra for a gam you already spent £50 on. Not to mention the DLCs as well. 3) I want to play an SP game, not multiplayer. I would be ecstatic if there wasn't any MP in the next DA.

It wouldn't interest me. If it has any single player stuff in it, I would watch some gameplay on youtube to see if its enough for me to buy. If I do but the game, it would be after the price has dropped.

Not necessarily a MMO, but a game that has a clear priority for multiplayer rather than single player. How excited would you be? How disappointed would you be? For me, it depends on how it is executed. However, I would hate to have key story bits locked behind group content like SWTOR flashpoints/Heroics/Operations. I like to enjoy game stories at my own pace and not have to depend on others. If that happened then there goes my last lingering interest in Bioware.

What if you, for once in your life, made a positive thread about anything Bioware related? Would the sky fall? Would the world end? Thankfully, we'll never know. Im sorry, but this thread isnt intended to be positive or negative but rather speculative. Whatever you perceive it to be is beyond my control. It's certainly speculative...

When? SWTOR changed a huge deal in the last three or four years. When I started playing it, SP was fairily painful, but by the time I finished it, SP was a breeze. Just do solo H2+, planetary and class stories, and nothing else.

Not going to say it'll be everyone's cup of tea but if people are longing for the Bioware story experience, it is entirely doable in this game solo.

And even if you personally did not like it, it is a PURPOSEFUL LIE to say that story Flashpoints and Heroics in SWTOR are locked behind the MP when they are ALL SOLO. SOLO, not MP.
I do not know why the OP is lying, but he does, and that's just wrong. I bet he did not even play Swtor, just skimmed through a release review, and did not bother to see that he is regurgitating 5 year old critique long since addressed by Bio.

While EA does questionable decision at times, I don't think they are that STUPID. They'll probably keep the MP but it don't think they'll make a full-fledged MP game out of DA. Just don't see that happen

I felt differently, because the eight class stories of SWTOR is my favorite game ever, but the point is that pretty much all story content is available SOLO without the MP component & it is not hard. You would have experienced no more or less story-content if you've grouped up & I don't think dying is any more likely in SWTOR Solo now than in any SP game on Normal.

Oh, and also, majesticjazz for the record, and in the interest of scientific inquiry, what I want to know is WHICH Bioware game specifically you actually really, truly and unequivocally love? Because your entire post history is nothing but veiled attacks on both released and unreleased BioWARE titles. I have seen you covertly or openly dissing ME3, MEA, DA2, Inquisition and Anthem for more than half a year. I have never seen you posting HAPPY posts or participating in discussions with the fellow fans of Witcher and Cyberpunk, the games you PROFESS to love. How come? You don't have HAPPY THOUGHTS? EVER?ALL, literally ALL you do is starting up "speculative" threads light on facts and heavy on mind-control attempts and lead-on suggestions that BioWARE game is either not good or not even going to be good. Even the unannounced one we have zero information about. So, please, oblige, tell us about what you LOVE, in at least 400 words, not what you are angst-ridden about or open hate.
Come on.
Give us a LOVE SPEECH for once, we need to see that side of you, you owe it to us for the endless walls of negative texts you flood this board with.
Or are you are pathologically incapable of being positive?Oh, and you are also so painstakingly generic. I have never seen you discuss a character, talk about a quest, ask about a gameplay problem or respond to it with explanation or even post a screenshot of your main in any game at all. Have you actually... PLAYED any games? ANY?
