Voiced all the way for me, though I can maybe accept a completely unvoiced game if the style suits it (old school isometric rpg and the like). What I absolutely can't stomach anymore is a partially voiced game. If NPCs are speaking, the player character needs to as well. Just standing there silently completely pulls me out of the moment.

Look at any movie over at Rotten Tomatoes. Even the classics, such as 'The Empire Strikes Back', 'Casablanca', and 'The Godfather, part 2" have negatives votes. You could post a video of kittens chasing puppies with landspeeders on Youtube and someone will still hate it. There are even people who dislike 'Pride and Prejudice'.Tastes vary and no entertainment can possibly please everyone. Not even otters. To be fair, it took adding zombies to make that story truly shine.

Errata: Experiment started on Friday; major parts of the empirical data gathering was technically performed on Saturday, as the experiment progressed through midnight. Science thanks you for your sacrifice. For science.

No thanks, I absolutely loathe two things: Episodic releases and interactive visual novels with barely any gameplay. Unsurprisingly, I'm not a Telltale fan.

So, we should lie on their surveys from now on? I was asked if I'd recommend the game, and I said I would not. They shouldn't ask questions they don't want to know the answer to.

That survey they sent recently used NPS. It asked on a scale from 0-10 about recommending the game and then a text area to explain why. So they are absolutely using NPS. We use it at work and I think it is a load of garbage but management loves the hell out of it. They possibly even took the results of that survey and made the DLC decision based on it. Although I think they already knew for SP, it could've contributed to the decision to end MP patches. Hehe, if I didn't know how common NPS was, I'd suspect we worked at the same place. Grunts find the metric useless, suits love it. I take it yours only care about 1-3 and 9-10 as well.

Isn't this basically what they did with daimp? Demo timer doesn't tick on mp, so essentially a free to play mp client after the sp demo time is up. Seriously, that's good to know if I wanna really try the gameplay before a buy Fair warning, getting a full lobby for daimp, whether it's 10 hours or an infinite amount might not be so easy.

Oh yes, they'll learn. Of course, this being BioWare, they'll hilariously overcompensate. Along the lines of "so you didn't like our facial animations? Fine, we won't have animations in the next game!"

Well for me, it's not only BioWare but BioWare and ALL of EA; I deleted my EA account yesterday. (I can still re-visit ME 1 and 2) I only wish management had some of the talent and dedication evident in the artwork and production of Andromeda (Inquisition, the ME trilogy). Management mostly produced hype and promises and patches. To me, abandoning Andromeda just suggests that EA has discarded the story driven Single Player game mode and it's the end of an era. I'm sure someone else will pick up the banner and keep it alive, but likely none of the big AAA producers—until it's 'rediscovered' and EA has to copy to compete instead of innovating like BioWare used to do. CD Projekt is working on Cyberpunk 2077 right now and Quantam Dream is working on Detroit: Becomming Human. Those are the titles I'd be paying attention to right now. Dragon Age 4 is happening I guess but I'm not really thinking about it because that game is probably years from even being announced. Detroit looks cool as hell, but so did Heavy Rain and that is *way* up there on the list of hyped games I utterly despise. I really wish David Cage would decide if he wants to make games or movies, because lately he's been kinda half-assing both.

Without the goodwill that DA2's DLC generated, DAI would have been in a much weaker position. By either luck or good judgment, they pulled off a GOTY. But it was still their first Frostbite outing, and had PS3/XB360 had better recording facilities, there could have been plenty of memes had people been more pissed. They ducked a bullet. Wow, nice helmet... is that DLC?

Well... Yes and no, I suppose. I am done with the game after playing it through twice, so assuming I'd do a third it would be after the release of DLC. But I wasn't expecting any to come, so I wasn't really planning on that third run.

Well, that's gone as expected. I wanted DLC because after some fixes, MEA has snuck up to the level of an acceptable game. I never expected it, bacause it launched as a complete clusterfuck and the damage was done. Hopefully, there's a lesson in there for not just BioWare, but the industry as a whole: Don't rely on patching to fix your broken at release mess. You only get one shot at a first impression. Sadly, I suspect that lesson being learned is about as likely as me capturing a unicorn that shits gold bricks.
And this is the part where I reveal myself as a horrible human: As disappointing as this end is, I can't help but relish the salty tears of a few people who shall remain nameless (but you know who they are) leading the cheerleader brigade on this forum with accusations of everything from delusions to misogyny if you weren't drinking the "dlc will come, there are no tanks in Bagdhad" kool-aid. How's that crow taste?

Put me somewhere in the middle, I guess. No, individual devs being prone to virtue signaling probably didn't ruin the game, but for how much they care about representation, they actually don't strike me as being very good at it. They do stumble into inserting token characters that serve no story purpose (Abrams), and being somewhat preachy (Asari pronouns speech just screams "ask people about their pronouns). And finally, I don't know if it's just because I was paying extra attention to it after the initial "SJW ruined everything" videos, but take a walk around the settlements and listen to the background chatter. For a group trying to colonize a new galaxy, there are a lot of couples in not traditionally breedable configurations. Some left up to interpretation, some not so much.It's not really an issue, like I said, I only noticed because I went looking. It creates a weird division of these characters being there, but being insignificant in every way except as a "did we put a lesbian couple of Eos?" checkbox.
The only thing I actually take issue with is (and this will probably reinforce why I don't visit the character and romance forums) is making Jaal bi. I actually agree that it would have made sense for him to be bi in the first place. But he wasn't, and changing him after the fact because of user complaints is just something I don't agree with. I'd disagree with making Suvi bi as well. That BioWare hadn't thought that people of all orientations with a represenation on the crew might want to take their LI along on missions just reinforces my initial thought of "they want to show diversity, they're just not very good at it".
I've recently been playing Horizon Zero Dawn, which imo did a way better job at presenting diversity than anything BioWare has ever done. Granted, because it doesn't have romance arcs, they do have a slightly easier job, but it seemed so effortlessly diverse, basically just making it feel like a living world with a bunch of different people, rather than a set of boxes to be checked.

There aren't any. But the plan, earlier in production was that at least some of the planets we could land on would be procedurally generated, rather than hand-crafted. Obviously, this would make telling a coherent storyline on that world kinda difficult. (Groan) but what does "procedurally generated" even mean? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Procedural_generationFor an example of it not working, see No Mans Sky. Lots and lots of bland planets, but on this one, the flowers are yellow and rabbits have beaks. For examples of it working, see many small roguelikes that use it to give you different levels on each try, for example FTL: Faster Than Light.

1: Drop the open world. 2: No quests / tasks that don't have at the very least a vague search area. 3: Drop romance content. 4: Watch twitter and tumblr (and bsn) burn as a result of 3. 5: Finish the damned thing before releasing it.

GtaV the best open game?excuse me how old are you? do you enjoy boring ass quests with the laziest design and one button activities like biciling or tennis? ALso the weed side quest. thats soooo cool!! thats so rad! look i am an adult! GtaV only catters to underaged people in my eyes who cannot drink alcohol or drive. There is nothing great about that game. The setting, that everyday 2012 setting, is boring. There is literally zero depth in these series. What you see is more from what you get. GTA's about as deep as a frisbee, but it is good for a laugh. A lot of those little side activities were annoying as shit though. I'd much rather just spend all my in-game currency on stocking up on supplies to have a sustained mayhem session to see how long one of these 3 slobs can last while blasting through the city. I would like to see a game that functions similarly but doesn't have a joke narrative or ensemble. On a technical level I love the way the game functions. I would be ecstatic to see an actual honest to Science RPG that has a sprawling city like that where we can deal with the worst of the troublemakers of a sprawling city. That's pretty much Sleeping Dogs. Less gunplay and more punching than GTA, but otherwise a pretty accurate description. Go buy it if you haven't.

It's a close race for me. Both do the open world aspect (which isn't my favourite thing in the first place) pretty poorly.
DA:I takes it for technical prowess, overall story and companions.
ME:A wins for gameplay, protagonist and setting. I thought Ryder was a much better defined character than the blank slate inquisitor who really suffered under having shoehorned race selection in there. Setting-wise, I'm just a massive sci-fi fan whereas I tolerate fantasy.
Overall, gameplay and setting slightly edges it in favour of ME:A for me. But trying to look at it objectively, I'd say DA:I is the better game.
