WARNING: If any Witcher 3 fanboys have read this far -what follows will most likely anger the lot of you who are not yet angry. So if you are still reading I advise you to look away now. Otherwise you have been forewarned: If you like Witcher 3 so much then don't waste time here go play it and leave those of use looking forward to ME:A to play ME:A. Bioware is not CD Project Red and I am glad that they are not. I would never work for such a company as CD Project Red. With those conditions for employees. Nor the way they are treated. There is no way this side of Andromeda or another that CD Project Red will ever get one single dollar of my money!
For those not in the know: https://www.reddit.com/r/witcher/comments/33mral/background_info_for_people_who_think_of_working/
Now, I don't even like the Witcher and I find those complaints ridiculous. The bulk of them aren't even about the company and just involves complaining about where it's situated, which is... fine I guess but doesn't really reflect on the company. You should do your homework before moving somewhere for a job, especially if you're coming from a highly developed country with high living standards. Plus, Bioware has gotten flack for working standards too, especially wrt "The Crunch." Of course I've noticed the devs who stay seem to treat it like a challenge or something that might be unpleasant but that they agree with the necessity of and the ones who don't mention it as a negative when they leave. Plus, the Holiday Build can easily be sold as getting your employees to work even when they're supposed to be off.

I don't think the game will bomb. The game looks good and it plays well. My only issue is with the floating suspension? while he was in the air momentarily?...idk, that kinda reminded me of halo and i hated that floaty styled combat and I hope the combat stays more grounded like previous games. The gameplay looked a bit frantic as well, but Bioware stated that you could use practically anything for cover (which is how is like to play) so this is most likely an issue with the player run and gun play-style and maybe the map itself with enemies just relentlessly attacking you.
Trailer felt a bit rushed, but i guess CES wasn't the platform for an extended trailer....previous trailer gave a general idea of what to expect tho...

It's the DAI marketing campaign all over again That is an insult to the DAI marketing campaign. They actually revealed a lot about the game, plot, and characters before release. I miss the DA:I marketing... I'm hoping the lack of content shown is an indication of Bioware being (over)cautious with their marketing rather than implying the game isn't nearly ready after all this time. I just wish we could have seen more about ME:A after 5 years. That doesn't seem like too much to ask... Hopefully we'll get another Initiative briefing soon at least. I'm tired of the fucking Witcher 3 if I'm honest It's always interesting to see a post like yours with so many likes in a thread like this. It shows how many people are lurking! Also, I agree.

Really? You think this game is going to suck? You realize this is BioWare's last real shot to knock one out of the park right? Especially after the failure that was Dragon Age: Inquisition..... Cuz if they don't...most likely EA will can all of them. Betchur ass they busted all of their asses into making this one of the best games they have ever produced. For them, this is it...do or die time.

TW3 being more successful didn't take anything for DAI's success for EA.

If I am a company that bought Pepsi..I expect Pepsi to make Pepsi products...if after 2 years...the decline in Pepsi's quality/sales is rapidly declining ( aka BioWare ) ...I am going to fire every one who works for Pepsi and bring in brand new people and teach them the new Pepsi way.

Lets say Pepsi is an independent company and it is enjoying immense success on it's own ( Bioware after Mass Effect 1)....But, Pepsi has gotten into financial problems and has decided it is necessary to sell the company to someone so the brand may live on...aka..lets sell this company to Coca-Cola ( <--EA in this case ) so Pepsi may live on.....EA ( Coca Cola) decided to strip Pepsi of all its managers and makers and has decided to run with it's own formula for Pepsi........What do you think is the worst thing that can happen?
