This is all depressing.
Anthem needs to be a success or I don't even know if we'll get DA4.

It doesn't fit BW, but (despite EA possible pushing this on them) they all seem excited about this.
Or maybe not. Many left after working on Dylan, no.

We haven't seen much to discuss, yet. A subforum would be this thread and...what? If they really do start releasing more info then that would make sense but for now that seems like a waste of effort. They'll release more today. It makes sense to create already a sub, or let it locked but ready, so people can discuss the different aspects of the game.

Tank, soldier, rogue and mage. IF they have magic, my interest in Anthem might rise again. m( ovo)m Ha, I doubt it. People would call it a ME/DA hybrid, and they want this to appear unique.

@midnight tea Could it be also. It also creates anticipation. We old farts were expecting info on this new BioWare IP, general public had no idea.
So money, exposure and momentum.

It is a bit disappointing though that EA is demoing their brand-spankin' New IP... at MS's keynote. I imagine they rolled up with a dump-truck of money to make this happen (and help promote Scorpio), but EA's conference would have been just that much better if they did it themselves. I don't know why, but they're self-confident with this IP. To the point they let ME sink deep into dark space. Guess money was good.

So... shouldn't Anthem now get its own sub forum as supposed to being in the off topic section? This. I can't wait to talk about how much of a failure this is going to be.

EA? E-Sports? Bwahahahahahahaha. They haven't published a single game E-sports worthy except for sports games ever since Generals, and even that was overshadowed by Warcraft 3 and Starcraft. Apparently last FIFA was really, really popular. In part thanks to its story mode. ...The story mode the tools to which have been created by Bioware. Now Madden has story mode too. Yeah, all games now appear to have a story mode. BioWare's influence, obviously.

Wasn't Andromeda that short as well with it's first trailer? Given that it's a 2018 game not entirely out of the realm of possibility. We'll probably just get a teaser. The biggest star this year is SW.

Jaal sucks. I voted for him just for the stay strong and clear bit; I wanted to kill him every time.
Cast was pretty weak imo.

You're right, it'll be a combination of the sales of the game, the sales of dlc, and maybe the results with a testing group. EA just cares about money. Begs the question, what do you expect from any large game developer or publisher? These are shareholder companies. Of course they only care about revenue. As far as DLCs are concerned, the sales of the main game in comparison to expected revenues in the original business plan will decide if DLCs are even produced. There's a fair chance that one was already in the late stages of production when the game was released. If that's the case, it will be finished. And add to testing the water if further production costs and manpower are warranted. Thus why I said what I did. Money (and the potential of it) is what may save Mass Effect, nothing else. Nowhere did I imply that EA should make games for art or any nonsense.
That DLC is on its way, we all know. Ofc, it can be cancelled but it hasn't been yet, or so it seems. But being made and being successful are two different things, if it fails to sell well that's it for MEA. If it doesn't sell, EA may see ME as done. You have the ME3 ending fiasco, that wasn't enough to hurt sales; but MEA was just a mess release and it's seem by the general public as a joke. Even places that are BioWare friendly mem'd it to hell and back. So you have a IP with a tarnished image. Very similar to DA2 (though it had an instant cult following, dividing the fanbase to this day). What is the deciding factor to its future then? How well it sells, how well its dlc sells, how much they think they can make in the future with it.

The question is, how does EA sees Mass Effect's future as of now? If it gets a dlc, how fast and well it sells will decide its fate. I doubt EA will decide Mass Effect's fate on how well its DLC sells. You're right, it'll be a combination of the sales of the game, the sales of dlc, and maybe the results with a testing group. EA just cares about money.

People need to realize that DA2 got a sequel because: was done in less than an year (small dev circle) and it sold really well in the first week* due to DAO's success. It wasn't a case of 'oh lets give them another chance', but because it was profitable and the DA ip was salvageable.
The question is, how does EA sees Mass Effect's future as of now? If it gets a dlc, how fast and well it sells will decide its fate.
* Forgot to add, I think the dlcs sold alright as well.

Dragon Age Inquisition got great companions and amazing soundtrack, was also well written and got a lot of emotional, memorable moments. Mass Effect Andromeda got 1 great companion, 2 average and that's it; soundtrack doesn't exist, writing is childish at some points and memorable moments ? NONE. Exactly, and IMO they even fucked up the best thing they had (combat). I could forgive all DAI flaws due to writing. All of them, even the ones that annoyed me, even the static open world of theirs, because the writing was enough to sustain the game. Lore, plot* and characters. The plot by the end was the weakest, but had great moments and was well executed overall.

Mass Effect is dead, then. Not even 6 months and they already treat it as the sad tale of gaming. The same treatment of Aliens: Colonial Marines.
