I take this as a cue to go play both ME MPs for a while, since I was saving the grinding zeal for Anthem. If it is a year from now, I am gonna take a break from the SP games. I am feeling a bit tired of new rulesets and new stories atm. Will still be ready to check it out & not tired of grinding if I time it right.

Why do I get the feeling the article wants to use the term "kissboy" instead of "youtuber"?

This game is screwed. Also wonder how many will ignore this article because they are still butthurt about the Jason I thought Jason behaved poorly last time in his interactions with some forum members here, but his claims and sources were credible. Hence I believe that his claims are likely well founded this time. That said, some other commentators are taking Jason's words and are spinning their own stories on top. Jason's article doesn't say the game is screwed, simply not releasing when currently expected.

Huh, well that explains why SWTOR has been so lacking lately. I doubt there will even be a SWTOR by the end of 2018 the way they're going....
My hopes for Anthem have also taken a massive dive as well.
RIP BioWare. Not that it hasn't been six feet under for years now but still.

It was his content after that I wasn't crazy about for it didn't feel like it was at the same level of standards. I have no problems with the game being delayed, I think it is funny with all the doomsayers that are talking about how the game is doomed now that it has been delayed, but at the same time so many people say they rather see a game delayed then rushed out of the door.

For those who had been following the Twitter Thread, there were hints over the last couple of months that we were looking at a 2019 release. So I had already been bracing myself for that.
However, with the bulk of development focused on Anthem, and this nebulous talk of a recent "reboot", I'm starting to wonder about DA4's release date. Up till now, I've been expecting it in 2020. But after reading the Kotaku article, I have to wonder if that's realistic anymore...

The most concerning thing is the idea that EA needs to have this game recorded in its 2017 fiscal year, come hell or high water. That means that any delay or problem will end up with a game delivered with no testing, support, and lots of glitches, just like ME:A.
EA will close Biower for sure if they don't deliver...

Y'know...this is starting to smell more and more like Andromeda...and trust I do not want to jump the gun on this...it is a good thing that they are throwing their best at this game, but it feels like they are rushing to get this thing done and to hit it's benchmark.....
Furthermore there has been no gameplay vids and things of that nature or even still pics of where the game stands (very familiar to how Andromeda was rolled out). I'm just saying this game has been in development since 2012 and now it feels like a "all hands on deck issue" or ELSE.....seems like more heads will roll if this game doesn't perform.....at least that's the vibe i'm getting from that article.
I'd be be interested if Anthem had a dedicated SP campaign, but early discussions with the dev, made it seem like that SP will be an after-thought....which is unfortunate....because the game, at least visually looks impressive at this point, but i guess it's competing with Destiny, so i'm assuming the game will be measured on those fronts....

That means that any delay or problem will end up with a game delivered with no testing, support, and lots of glitches, just like ME:A. EA will close Biower for sure if they don't deliver... They only release ten games or so a year now. The thing is they have announced the game and that could be having an impact on why they are set to release in a certain fiscal year. Remember EA answers more to investors then players. There was testing for Andromeda, there might not have been enough but there was testing. I am not sure where people think there wasn't any, plenty of games come out with problems equal to Andromeda. The big offenders are Bethesda games, but also The Witcher 3 had a very long list of bugs they fixed over the years. There was support for Andromeda as well, they released six or seven patches for the game over six months adding some different things, fixing most of the animation issues, overhauling the character creator, having voice actors come back so they can make Jaal a choice for either gender of Ryder. If you meant DLC, sure there wasn't any of that, but that is not support. Just like support plenty of games have glitches, there might have been more then a typical BioWare game, but for me the glitches were on par for an open world style game. If EA closes BioWare its their choice, but I doubt they will unless they don't have active projects for them and it sounds like BioWare Edmonton at least still has Dragon Age 4 to work on. Now it seems BioWare Austin might be closing if they are considering slowing support for a MMO which probably no longer really has an audience to support expansions.

I am really curious about something and maybe someone here can explain it to me. People are pissed about the state Andromeda was released in and keep saying they should have delayed the game. Now that there is a push to the release date of Anthem its all doom and gloom. So what it is do you want the game released on time or have it delayed to fix issues?

Now that there is a push to the release date of Anthem its all doom and gloom. So what it is do you want the game released on time or have it delayed to fix issues? My point was that Andromeda was released in an unfinished state and was not adequately tested. They needed to get the game into EA's end of year revenue count, and released it despite being unfinished. The goal is to put the game out when it is ready, regardless of the fiscal quarter. This is a AAA game company, and EA expects some wins and a continued return on their investment in Bioware. After the Andromeda experience, there is really no reason to pre-order Anthem. You would only have waited 30 days to watch the price go down 30%.

I play on PC, that getting a game for 25% to 30% off in the first month isn't that unusual anymore unless they are huge hits out the door and I don't think BioWare has ever been at that level.

This is to be expected from any Bioware title. In fact I would not be surprised if they barely had a game right now, just about a year before release - something which, for Andromeda, it has been the case.

It is evident that it's doomed to fail in either case. delayed: it's in trouble, deep trouble - could as well just rush it out not delayed: it's rushed, not even a delay will fix it

Well, this seems like the end of Bioware as an RPG studio. If Anthem fails, it's light out for Bioware. If Anthem succeed, Bioware will focus all its effort on maintaining an MTX riddled looter-shooter, probably without a real story. As it seems, the next Dragon Age will be an MTX riddled mess at best, an Anthem/Destiny derivative most probably, or just straight out canceled at worst.

Now that there is a push to the release date of Anthem its all doom and gloom. So what it is do you want the game released on time or have it delayed to fix issues? Just the fact that EA are the overlords means doom and gloom for the game. It has nothing to do with a delay. I would much rather have a game delayed then have one shipped the way MEA did, but Anthem appears to be following a similar path, at least up to the point of the delay announcement. Between EA and MEA, I don't think many are going to give Anthem(Bioware) the benefit of the doubt on anything and rightfully so.
