I’d just like a demo of the game, that way I’d be the one to judge but knowing Bioware it’ll probably not happen.

you get early access if you preorder. Ahhh and then I can simply cancel you mean? Good thinking lol That’ll only work on the Xbox, IF it still works that way that is and I do have an Xbox one as well, however don’t know if it’s worth going through all that trouble...

If not, then I'll be watching some let's plays before buying.

Unless you got a time machine you can't really affirm that. Also how do you define a "Traditional Bioware" game? Because since i started playing their games i can say they have been changing a lot. Generally its marked by being a single-player RPG. Anthem, for all intents and purposes, is a looter shooter. Just to clarify, I'm not dogging Anthem, as I actually hope the game does well. But for as much as I think certain Bioware fans came into Anthem with the wrong assumptions (companions, romances, offline play, etc), I do think Bioware should be a bit more forward in saying that it's a game that stands in contrast to their other titles. I haven't seen that at all, unless you want to see that in the game. The video demonstration from E3 2017 showed it was a four person co-op shooter style game. BioWare cannot be responsible for people are believing will be there when they have showed only that the game is a four person co-op shooter, said that it won't have romances, said that it will be online only, said that you can play solo, said that there will be companions with the aim of making them feel like Mass Effect 3: The Citadel, and probably more that I have missed. If people are still assuming that it is going to be anything like a BioWare game of the past they are ignoring everything BioWare is saying. It has said it will have the "feel" of a BioWare game, but that means nothing for its an emotion and not an actual gameplay element.

Wait until its released then, demos are a huge unknown for a game which more then likely does more damage then good. Besides who pays for all that bandwidth so its just an extra expense on the game budget. Game demos are in the gigabytes of size anymore and its not a free resource. Its why EA has probably going to the EA Access route for demos so they at least get that one month of subscription to offset that kind of cost and it is closer to the actual release version of the game.

This is why I wish Bioware would face the music and just come out and say it's not a traditional Bioware game I think they've done just that. True, they aren't saying it in so many words, but they're showing it, in actions they are taking and visuals they are showing. For example, E3 was focused on co-op and combat, with hub storytelling kept under wraps. They could have opened their trailer the same way TLoU2 did, character and story first, but they didn't. They went straight to action and matchmaking and stuff that would interest MP action gamers, not RPG gamers. One would have to have their head buried pretty deep in the sand to miss the writing on the wall -- wow, that was a Sir Mix-A-Lot of a metaphor.

The whole thing looks a lot like Warframe to me. Game design-wise. And I wouldn't be surprised if they could pull off some of the story missions also.

Well it reminds of me of doom 2016, where the publisher was more eager to show the multiplayer aspects of the game rather than the single player. The publisher focused the attention on the multiplayer as it wanted a competitor to halo or cod and have their own mp fps in the market But just because the marketing was focused on the multiplayer aspects does not mean it's all there is, as the sp part is THE thing the people enjoy way more about that game, and all the mp marketing did not prevent doom 2016 of being the game of the year for many people, despite the negativity and the skepticism before it's release.
