I enjoyed the comments more than the article.

Obviously it was the critics and not EA/BW that made a bad game, cancelled DLC and a sequel novel, and shut a studio lol. All they say is that MEA is good compared to Anthem, so let's hope we won't be saying "DA4/ME5 makes Anthem look a lot better in hindsight".

See... you're already prepping for that very thing to be said. Ages before the games are released, the relentless cycle of negativity starts. The media doesn't want to admit it, but they DO damage future releases by certain companies with all their negativity. The relentless negativity does make it harder for the employees of those companies to interact with fans in a positive way. All the devs can do to turn the tide is TRY their best to make a better game... which Bioware has been doing all along. However, it IS up to the media and the fans to help turn the tide and start encouraging the devs a little instead of slamming them into the dirt at every opportunity.
BUT, what was the media saying BEFORE EA announced the cancellation of the DLC? Were they saying that the game might be improved with a good DLC? No, they were locking in on repeating over and over again that the sales were just so, so bad. They were intent on crushing any fans who liked the game and were hoping for DLC... to the point of publicly ridiculing them by taking posts from this website and publishing them in ways that mocked those fans.
Andromeda WAS a good game... perhaps not a great game, but it did not deserve the slamming it got overall. People were also dumping on Anthem long before it released. Even saying they didn't even want it to succeed lest Bioware should pull away from making SP games. So, nah, the fans and the media have to take their share of the blame here before things can even start to get better. Demoralizing the devs doesn't spur them on to do better... it crushes them and ultiamately we get worse games, not better ones, out of them.

*insert boo hoo supernatural meme* You make it seem as if critics orchestrated an attack on MEA, "hey it's actually an amazing game but let's make negative reviews for shits and giggles". BW/EA aren't in a unique position, they got shit on for making bad games just like many other games before them from other companies, can't handle memes and trolls?, guess they never heard of retail workers, you know there are actually people scooping up shit for a living. We didn't get DLC and sequel novel because EA decided so following bad sales of a bad game, EA was cutting costs and needed to finish their other bad game SWBF2.

Insert meme about how anyone who dares criticize the media for anything is saying there's some sort of conspiracy... which I'm not. It's not a conspiracy... it's a tendency of the media to parrot each other and to sensationalize everything in a negative way just to get clicks... a conspiracy to too sophisticated for the likes of the gaming media... They're not that smart.
I don't really expect things will improve because I have absolutely no faith in the gaming media improving. When they finally drive Bioware out of businnes, they'll move onto a new pet dev they can hammer on for clicks. That's how they figure they'll stay in business. Articles now acknowledging their overkill (it was a good game, actually) are simply too little, too late. Clicks earns them their money... and their just as greedy about it as EA. So, it will just happen again with the next game that's a little off point and gets described as being an unmitigated disaster.
It's a shame that the guys taking the hits though aren't the EA execs or the media moguls and the 100s of little sh**s that parrot them... it's the devs taking the blows... the guys who actually used to love just making games for people to enjoy.

Michael Gamble @gamblemike Today is MEAs second birthday. I have many feelings about that game and I vividly remember where i was on March 21 2017. Proud of the team, the cast, and love the fans.
I've read the critiques and the praise. I've spent years thinking about it. I'm reminded that the franchise means as much to you as it does to me. Look up at the stars, Pathfinders.
