Raizer calls Bioware Out (Awesome!)

The point I was trying to make is there are a lot of postings here about said and said youtuber making a video. Most of them are no names whose opinion doesn't really matter. Your video isn't the first to be posted, nor will it be the last of these no names.

Lol He was the literally the first person to regularly cover Mass Effect Andromeda on YouTube, before it was even known by that name.  He hosted N7 Radio and had people like GamerMD83 and Biofan on his podcast.  But besides who Raizer is is FAR from the main point of this post, actually.  Seems like you are just commenting trying to stir something up rather than contribute anything useful to the discussion.  You are part of the reason the main Bioware boards got shut down, I assume.

What happened with Andromeda is the same as any other game released since they really started to have hard drives in consoles, and in fact I remember issues on PCs that go even further back they just never fixed console games.

Now if people continue to point out flaws like what happened with Andromeda in future games and "critics" give those games the same amount of negative press I am going to be surprised. I haven't seen the torches and pitchforks for the Guardians of the Galaxy game from Telltale yet and I doubt I there will be videos like this one covering how they are shitting all over their customers by not fixing problems that have been in their games since the first Walking Dead game. Or that Bethesda makes sure the game works themselves and not having people who want a working game to fix it themselves. There was even an article on Polygon about Persona 5 and how the dubbing was subpar and aside from that one article I haven't seen a lot of coverage on it. People want to use BioWare as clickbait and until complaints seem to be consistent between games and developers that is all it seems to be to be regardless of how long you have been talking about a single game or studio.

I'm tired of the "rushed" excuse these days. They had five damn years to make the game. This guy sounds like a total chode.

The overall theme of what he said is not new. But as someone who hated ME3 ending even with EC, I was very optimistic they learned from their mistakes. And a lot of time passed since ME3 so Andromeda was available for prepurchase i went for the deluxe pack prepurchase. Now i know that for the rest of the MEA series i will be buying the game months after release with lower price and better features. DLC extra paid content should not have to be something you buy to fix the experience.

Plus I would add that I dont really distinguish between Bioware and EA anymore. Its pretty much the same entity and I feel EA is just going to take the sports game approach to bioware titles

You know...I remember the Bioware forums from the Mass Effect 1 release. Then the move to the new forums. Now here.

Every release Bioware makes is the same damn thing all over again. Every game has legitimate issues. All of 'em had stupid shit, either dumb plots, dumbed down RPG mechanics, too liner, too open world, too much loot and crazy inventory system, no inventory system and no loot, too complex of a leveling system, too dumbed down skill selections...

I mean, holy hell. In the wake of the ME3 ending debacle, I completely forgot about the bullshit that comes along with any Bioware fan forum. Every game was "the end of Bioware/Mass Effect/Dragon Age" or "Why can't we go back to KotOR?" This has got to be the most fickle and downright idiotic fandom in all of gaming. There are exceptions, even some of you I disagree with vehemently are decent people. But overall? Yeah, I'm kinda wondering just why the hell I jumped back into this madhouse.

Lol.

Literally hundreds of Youtube "celebrities" have converged on BioWare to squawk about how much ME:A sucks.

But this. THIS will be the one that gets their attention.

It's funny too.  I have a small YouTube channel.  I don't want or need to become a "celebrity."  I just like making videos.  But I've seen the same thing time and time again amongst a large portion of Youtube "celebrities."  The opinion that gets out first is generally the one that people latch onto.  Youtubers LIVE by views, and if an opinion gets popular, next thing you know EVERYONE's on that opinion train, trying to out-do each other for the views.

It's very similar to online "review" sites.  They come up with click-bait titles, throw together the "opinion of the day" and try to farm the clicks and views.  I'd say there is a very large dearth of actual, honest reporting/reviewing on these sites.  They just come up with what they think will garner the most attention, and roll with it ad nauseam.  

And people are sheep.  A person can have intelligent thoughts, but people just follow the opinions they hear/see the most.  And most people are fascinated by bad news.  Combine all this together, and I give almost no credence to someone who comes on here and trashes the game with the same old phrases and concepts I've seen countless places elsewhere, or when I hear/read a review that rehashes the same tired content other's have said continuously.  

Edwards: Why the big secret? People are smart. They can handle it.

Kay: A person is smart. People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it.

Is there supposed to be a video in the OP? It feels like there's some context missing.

I honestly wonder if BioWare Montreal even asked.  I just think A. given the reports of bad management and B. given their relative youth of the overall studio and staff I just think it was more like...

EA: The game is good to go in March right?
BWM: Sure everything is A OK to go boss! (oh god what have we done?)

I just think that BWM lacks the maturity, the experience, and the pull to really know when/ how to ask for another extension.  Whereas Edmenton does.
