So ah...what happened to the next MEA novel?

The game being half off after the first two months is good indication of the game's sales and success.

The series being put on ice with the studio being used for other projects would be another indicator.

And I say that as someone who enjoyed the game a ton. It deserved some of its mixed reviews but it was financial failure.

At this point we cannot deny that the silence surrounding Andromeda is quite odd. I never saw someone not bragging over a game that they have released recently like BW/EA this time. Still I would wait before claiming a brand "dead forever" Maybe right now they are just doing damage assessment and when they'll have sorted it out they'll continue as planned. If Two Worlds 2 was able to receive two new DLC 5 years after its release there is always hope.

Have to agree as I think the same will be true of any DLC as well I think. That's why I'm more in a wait and see situation mode on this. I'm hopeful we'll see something but we have to prepare to face that possibility just in case

With Anthem and the rumored Dragon Age 4 coming up of course Bioware is relocate their resources to focus on them regardless of its reception

It was 25% off 48 hours after release... EA knew what way the wind was blowing right from the beginning.

Um that was a glitch or do you not buy an official statement?

There is a production schedule and as far as I know, it's running along a lot better since the reset button was hit after Andromeda's release. This was done to show EA how f***ing stupid they've been handling the studio and the studio itself needed to address a lot of HR issues. Everything is going forward including the negativity that followed the release window. The hype window is over. To continue beating that horse is no longer worth the time and effort. The studio took Andromeda in the gut while Montreal had to take it on the chin. Andromeda is a good game and worthy of DLC. It will stand on its own legs as the patches continue to address the quest bugs and glitches. I'm hyped up for DA4 after playing Inquisition with all the DLC. I just wish DLC wasn't necessary to make the game's main story complete. Without it, Inquisition was a 7 (in my opinion) and it won GOTY. The DLC raised it to a solid 9, but no real modding tools and game flow killed replayability for me. 

Feel free to back up your comment. In the meantime, here's more proof. Lol - you're really grasping at straws. It'd be funny if it wasn't so pathetic.

Either way, I don't believe anything EA says. It might've been a glitch, but as far as I'm concerned... it was a knee-jerk reaction to everyone on YouTube dropping hate bombs on Andromeda. It's a great wake up call that shoving a broken product into the market to satisfy a quarterly report is not only counterproductive, but effectively labels everyone involved as short-sighted, impatient and callous of their own fan base.

Mass Effect: Andromeda was selling for full price on Amazon, Best Buy, Target, etc for the first month. After that, you would see occasional week long sales of physical copies only. Hardly sounds like they were desperate for sales.

It got a permanent 25% discount 2 days after release? A 20% discount before it launched?

You're like the "fake news" Republican shills.
