EA owes us extended support

You mean you bought that malarkey EA stated?! Lmao 😂
Edit: I'm referring to the willing to delay part. All EA really cares about is 💰💰💰💰💰💰

EA is willing to do anything as long as it doesn't affect EA. There had to be a caveat. Sure, take all the time you need. We'll shut the door on this studio... fire these folk... etc.

Ea did delay it. Probably could have used another one but not sure what EA owes us. Given the v improvements to DA I they made in just one year with patches and dlc...and given the state that the game is in after patch 1.05 a year would be plenty.

Will be a hurdle to overcome for the new IP aswell. The game has been in development for 5 years at this time, and it will be 6 years when it launches. EA seems to give Bioware enough time to develop after the lackluster DA:2 and ME:3 reception/discussion. What i want to know is how Bioware actually spend that time. In the case of Andromeda, it was certainly not well spent.

I've played DA:I right before ME:A. DA:I was the GOTY. It was in worse state than MEA for me, with botched banter triggers, three not triggering cutscenes, more crashes than I have seen (unmodded) in any game, a few quests that felt like they were roughly sketched in, but left unfinished, unpolished journal, quest description that were absolutely useless in explaining what was expected of you, misplaced quest markers, six or seven gigantic areas without any real content, and the worst ending in any BioWare game to date. DA:I today looks and plays like an abandoned project by Obsidian rather than a regular Bio game. 

With MEA, I had three glitching repeat VAs, one major option missing in CC (skin complexion/texturing slider) and one quest messed up in NG+ so far (movie night). 

mea is playable beginning to end, DA:I feels like a WIP to be heavily edited and added to.

yeah, Eyes looked terrible before patch, but nothing in MEA ever come close to the nightmare that Ducchess Florence or what's her name looked like, or that What's his name Tevinter wizard you can judge to make tranquil. Ye gods....

Not quite sure exactly what you are getting at there.  At some point they need to get the game out the door and start making money, this is a business.  Aside from giants like Blizzard or Nintendo you can't keep a game in development indefinitely and still have money to keep paying your developers and other employees.

5 years is a long time.  Aside from Bethesda I can't really think of any other AAA game developer that consistently uses development cycles that long.  MEA's problems are not because of a rushed development schedule.

Few i remember - this Duke Nukem game, the PS2-3-4 game with giant bird and child, and Elite Dangerous with 20 years development, also Prey 2 i think,
You imply that development time wouldn't affect MEA, then why was MEA delayed 2 times instead of releasing it then?

Even if EA were to say they'd do it for player satisfaction, they really mean they'll do it to their satisfaction. GL on trying to get extended support.

Regardless, 5 years and a delay was more than enough for this game. Blame goes to bioware cuz EA was the good guy in this case.

yes they owe us support at least until the next ME game comes out

They'll provide support until such a time that it's no longer profitable to provide support. EA, in the end, is a business with many developers and many games.
