I've read conflicting reports online. Some say its not an action rpg, but an action adventure. Others say it is an action rpg. I know it is first and foremost a co-op game, which disappoints me. But the one thing I am holding out hope for is that it still has the things we have come to love from Bioware games. * Any answers or insight would be appreciated, thanks! Sadly we've all only seen the same 7-minute trailer, so I suspect it will be Spring 2018 before we know any more...

Will fail as Destiny follow up, then EA will add options for players to romance one another. Then it will be a game that Bioware fans always wanted. ( Whether they want to admit it or not )

( Whether they want to admit it or not ) Erm, i doubt social component like this will help. Mostly folks prefer scripted RP with environment characters, and fighting over it out of the game. Sure, there are always couple that like playing games together, and some of them might get kicks out of social components that register them as a romantic pair, but I dunno if the Western audience is ready to use online gaming as a dating interface.

Why are there no trees for straight dudes? The only straight female tree is ugly and looks like a man! All the rest are hermaphrodites. Why can't Bioware make conventionally sexy trees like in The Witcher 3 and Firewatch? Special snowflake SJW's at it again.

They might even add plums, to ensure there is an incentive for crossspecies pollination, in order to get desired outcomes. Plums, that is, a good crop of plums. Well, at least I hope so, arbromances gotta have consequences or why include them at all?

Geurilla Games revealed that Horizon Zero Dawn sold appx. 3.4 million units and received good critics reception. A very stunning action RPG. Possibly a GOTY game.
This implies that aRPG games are far from dead. Let's hope Bio designed Anthem with this fact in mind.

Huh? Anthem is not like HZD in any way, shape or form, and the day BioWARE makes an SP title with a set protagonist and no choices will be the day I will stop playing games completely, because it will become obvious at that point that nobody will ever again produce the style of the games that I like the most, so what's the point. I'll watch TV.

What should be worrying you is EA's "live service" with Anthem.... = ever changing game = microtransactions = very expensive game. I'm hoping the latter is not the case.

No. ME games have a fully customizable protagonist & you resolve each quest the way you want. That's exactly the kind of games I want to play. And MP games with paid content may be expensive and boring after a while, but at least you get to have your own character, not sit and watch someone else's.

But the one thing I am holding out hope for is that it still has the things we have come to love from Bioware games. Will it have a character creator? Will we have dialogue choice? Will the story still be strong considering its co op? Can we have a single player experience just playing the story? Any answers or insight would be appreciated, thanks! On the official site, Bioware described it as a “shared-world action rpg,” beyond that we don’t know. We don’t know if it will have a character creator, I would guess yes if even a game like Destiny can have one. We don’t know if there will be dialogue choice, but developers claimed we would be able to experience a traditional Bioware-style story. We don’t know anything about story, but consider the example of SWTOR. Bioware implemented strong single player story despite being an MMO. So the story could very well still be strong. Anyone who tells you otherwise is being unnecessarily pessimistic.

Reminding you what you typed: "and the day BioWARE makes an SP title with a set protagonist and no choices" If you meant "with a character I can't customize", okay, but usually when people say "set protagonist", they mean like Geralt, or Lara Croft, or Shepard. If you end up playing 80%+ of the game with a Javelin suit on, not sure why you care about customization?

If you end up playing 80%+ of the game with a Javelin suit on, not sure why you care about customization? Yes, I mean the protagonist I cannot change appearance, gender and name of, and who participates in conversations, choosing different responses. Laugh all you want, but Shepard is NOTHING like Geralt for me. NOTHING. Shepard is the same as Ryder, Last Monk, Bhaalspawn or the Fatebinder to me, while Geralt, Lara and Altair are different. I am playing AC right now, and while the gameplay is awesome, I really get that sharp pang every time the control of the character is yanked away from me the moment he opens his mouth. Geralt has a bit of an advantage over Aloy or Altair because he gets conversational options in the dialogues, but he is not my character. The biggest difference for me between a videogame and a TV show/book is that I supply the main character. That is what I like about the games the most. Otherwise, like I said, I'd read and watch TV. If you cannot understand what I am saying or how I feel, there is nothing I can do about it. You will still don't get it. So, i won't waste my time on responding to you again.

I wasn't laughing about the set character part, it was about the choice part. Bioware games don't let you complete quests the way you want to. They let you complete quests the way Bioware wants you to. That's the point I was trying to make. If that's the sort of thing you like and look for in a game, that's fine, totally your choice. Just don't call it something that it's not.

Just getting back to this section of the boards, but we really don't know anything. The majority of information you are going to see online is pure speculation based off of that one video BioWare has released. If anything it shows that the BioWare name still has click value when people are making huge articles and YouTube videos off of that.
Personally I am just avoiding any of that type of information for now because it is probably inaccurate and it shows people are over analyzing what little content we are getting for clicks of some sort for the really isn't the rabid fanbase of an establish franchise yet.
