Does this sound like Scott Ryder?

Yes, Tom Taylorson is the voice of Scott Ryder.

EA.

2 1/2 years.
Bioware developed plan for MEA.
EA Scratched it.
Bioware developed new plan 3 years in.
EA let them go with it.
EA the money grubbing business has-been elitists who know nothing about how to make great RPG's.
Bioware is the only EA studio that makes RPG's as far as I know that is still open.

Thank you for confirming my whole point.
It is not about their experience with making RPG games -though it is in the right vein.
It is about their experience making a game that was to be built in a procedural universe.

Something the other EA game No Man's Sky had tried.
I think No Man's Sky was the first time a procedural universe was tried on such a scale -if at all.
EA had seen the success of No Man's Sky and wanted MEA to follow it.

EA then saw the player base of No Man's Sky begin to shrink and EA recoiled.
MEA was thus redesigned from using the No Man's Sky procedural universe idea to what we got.

If EA wanted it to work that way then they should have disbanded the No Man's Sky team and reassigned them to Bioware MEA division. 
And again it is the decisions of EA not Bioware that really gave us what we got anyway.

Granted.
Also not fantasy land just more of a stickler for responsible leadership than what we ended up with.
Still the insiders would have known about NMS being in development at EA before its announcement.
Knowledge Bioware would have access to being a part of EA and a possible theory that they could use in their RPG way.
So technically they developed it in their own way but still influence of NMS is there.

EA is more responsible for MEA's failings more than Bioware Montreal ever would be as far as I am concerned.
EA is at fault for allowing these things to happen in the first place.
Shifting of employees between studios, changing building of game so late in, changing directors and vastly underwhelming resources needed.
THESE things should never been allowed to occur.
Sure Bioware is at fault for these but EA holds the total responsibility for even allowing these things to occur in the first place.
This is one case where the EA totalitarian system would have worked better to get the game better received.
Bioware has been set back to the days of Icewind Dale with using the Frostbyte Engine -still an ambitious engine to be using for RPG's.
Maybe in 10 years they will finally have it mastered and be back to where they were in 2007...
Nevertheless I will say that MEA is KOTOR2 level in completion... at least Bioware completed it instead of passing it to another studio.

Oh, yes, the classic the publisher fucked up everything despite their efforts to make this game successful to everyone after Montreal's piece of shit handling of the IP. You proved absolutely nothing, but only that you know nothing aside from your BioWare wet dreams. Montreal killed the franchise, they wasted years of development because they didn't know better, and focused in the sex scenes than the story and characters, you know, what makes BioWare, BioWare. In the end, the reception was shit, the support was shit and the sales were shittier hence the hiatus. But congrats for thinking it's okay, great message to the developers, to hide behind EA's curtains whenever they fuck up again for a mediocre product.

Also, Merry Christmas.

One thing I always respected about you whether we agree or disagree is that you give no quarter to those you feel screwed up. Yeah, Bioware's leadership at the developer level for this game was obviously screwed up, but in the end the buck did stop with EA. EA could have pulled the plug on the procedural crap within a year but chose not to, or just didn't care. Come on, don't act like your husband is on the EA board of directors all of a sudden...

No big disagreements here except it's obvious that EA didn't fuck up the initial vision, they didn't pull the plug nearly soon enough on it. That's the difference. I think this just shows that EA doesn't really care much about Bioware anymore.

EDIT: Maybe one more. The whole memefest just showed how socially maladjusted the hardcores of this franchise are in many cases. Kind of like those neckbeard Star Wars fans who can't accept the prequels are urine soaked dogshit.

Hard to say if they do care or not, so I can't say much. We do know they are trusting Bioware to release their own Destiny to rip people off later, Anthem in that case. As for the memes, I think there are some justified anger and dissapointment poured into them, but you would not be wrong with bolded part as well. Shit, don't even get me started with those fanboys of the prequels, sighs.

I'm not exactly the biggest fan of the prequels but i find this...super overboard.

Agree, let's go there one day to rip it apart. Love it.

Nah it's not tom taylorson, it's an impostor.
