A lot of obituaries are going to be penned for BioWare over the next days. Anthem's shaky release only adds to a narrative that's taken shape over the past decade: BioWare's best days are behind it.
Once regarded as one of the very best RPG studios in the business, BioWare's games have drawn more and more criticism over the years.
EA, being the easy target that it is, tends to catch most of the blame for BioWare's troubles. However that's only part of the story. The truth is that BioWare was already on its current path when EA entered the picture.
Discover the latest news from Bloober Team: they are working on 2 new games, including a new IP in partnership with Private Division.
Steam is changing its refund policy, but you probably won’t be affected
Should have happened a long time ago. People wanting refunds after 50 hours in game.
Daily reminder that 'TheGamer' is a corporate-generated, anti-gamer, anti-consumer, clickbait web site. They are mostly A.I. generated articles that villainize gamers. They provide nothing positive and actively try to provoke and divide the community through extreme view points and politics. Do not give them any clicks.
Only scumbags? As if people don't play their games on console put in the most amount of hours and return it to GameStop and trade it in for another game. But also how many people are actually do this? And what games have been allowed to be refunded?
A job listing published by the UK studio reveals that its next project will be another entirely new IP.
Good. Something not boring, not one of those "make your own game" crap and also on Steam would be nice.
Bioware is doing fine.
Yeah. I really don't get all the hate for the game. I'm having fun with it. It's got some issues that they will need to patch but what game upon release doesn't these days.
The critics in the entertainment industry as a whole need to stop drinking the koolaid and actually form their own opinions for once.
That's what they get for selling themselves to EA.
I still blame EA. BioWare was in a tough spot financially when EA bought them, but they have since experienced a decline in quality.
I get that it's the thing to hate on EA but sometimes it's not a fad, it's the truth. Their vision and what they want the same industry to become is enough to rally against them!
But this is about Bioware and there was a Bioware before EA and there is a Bioware after EA.
