Man what the fuck happened here? Absolutely kino first game and just spiraled from there.

The world changed. Bioware drained, then died. Men no longer bear the capabilities for such creation. All we can do is endure and await a kinder age.

>what the fuck happened
EA bought Bioware.

>>724071180 (OP)
DEI hires and secondary wokesloppers replaced the og dev team of real nerds and mostly White men. Bioware was one of the first to fall

It was woke. Look at this LGBT representation.

>>724071180 (OP)
The people at Bioware changed. I bet, if you asked any of the writers responsible for Origins, if they would make that same game today, they would say no. Which is why after the massive cRPG revival we had there still is no remaster. Bioware is legit ashamed of Origins tone and style.

also SWTOR

Jews

According to interviews it was only supposed to be one game
For the rest of the series it played second fiddle to Mass Effect at the studio and it showed.

>>724071180 (OP)
EA

>>724072926
But just like dragon age only the first mass effect was good.

>>724073060
Mass Effect 2 was good just not as good as 1.

>>724071180 (OP)
Long development time. Iirc Dragon Age 2 was made in 12 months because of EA's deadline.

BioWare was already getting infiltrated and subverted during DA:O development. Which you can see in the game with some writing being Tumblr trash for fat cunts. It was already doomed by then.

>>724071180 (OP)
Origins took 7 years. DA II took I believe 2 years or less than that due to EA's pressure

>>724071180 (OP)
crazy that the first game was so good they could coast on that for like 2 decades despite only putting out actual trash the whole time

>>724071180 (OP)
>Absolutely kino first game
DAO is the best in the franchise and it's still painfully mediocre.

>>724073307
DA2's development took 16 months

>>724071180 (OP)
It was the last game made that was mostly developed before BioWare started to get gutted after being acquired by EA.

>>724071180 (OP)
>Absolutely kino first game
I've always said and will always say DAO was dogshit.

>>724072781
All key people who worked on Origins already left Bioware.

>>724074192
Yeah it kinda is. It's basically just an actual RPG which is why people like it (also it was on consoles I think?)

>>724074706
Not really, the lead producers, narrative designers and writers only left Bioware recently, some of them still work there. But they have simply changed. They are basically ex-porn performers who turned born again christians protesting all forms of sex and nudity.

>>724071180 (OP)
The second game was rushed as fuck by EA and pushed to being more “actiony” for the console market. It also pushed out portions of the DAO dev team who weren’t happy with the schedule and game direction. The third game had dev time and ambitious scope, but still had publisher meddling that forced in a multiplayer mode (remember that?) and a pure action focus for combat. Plus the dev team themselves had fully moved from the heavy metal dark fantasy of the first game into the female fan oriented diversity fantasy. The fourth game is just the same publisher meddling and tone shifts as the third game magnified to an absurd degree.

inquisition is the worst game i've ever played

>Man what the fuck happened here?
People were rightfully calling this console trash when it came out, and now a new generation of faggots suck its dick. Give it another 15 years, and the contrarianism of nu/v/ will redeem Inquisition and fucking Veilguard.

I still remember the hilarious trailer:

DAO could be an amazing dark fantasy game (and had its moments), but turned out very mediocre. Of course from that point on, it went only downhill.

>>724073302
Bioware always pushed subversion. They're left-wing Canadians.

i don't think i've ever played through a WRPG
do i start with this or DOS2?

>>724071180 (OP)
And it is so much better than Gay Bear Sodomy Gate 3 as well.

It is truly a shame what happened to Bioware.

>>724071180 (OP)
Inquisition was still pretty good.

Just reminded me it's time for my yearly play-through. Any recent mods that are worth installing?

This was really integral to the plot.

Few years ago I replayed for nostalgia and I not only liked it more but the game on nightmare is actually fun aside how weak you are early game. Hell I could go on for hours about how kino DA:O is. It's one of the only games WoW withstanding that when the game is over upu wish there were more and you feel cucked that it's ogre

>>724079990
>t. Can't point to Edmonton on a map.

Women writers happened

>>724079990
Yes, people somehow fail to understand this. You had to be there, they used to have open forums even back in the NWN days where they spoke with the players and you absolutely could see they were lefty even then.

>>724072926
It’s this
It’s like when a miniseries like The Terror or True Detective gets turned into an “anthology show” with new everything
It’s just paper pushers knowing a certain % of people are so dumb that they’ll buy whatever has the same name even if it’s all different people on the back end
Stop expecting games to have sequels

>>724072781
>t. Doesn’t know what the fuck he’s talking about.
The lead writer of Origins quit the company when he learned the plan for DA2.

>>724071180 (OP)
"When you press a button something awesome has to happen" and Hamburger helper happened. Why they decided to enable both things is beyond me. The day when this company goes out of business will be a great one.

>>724080583
Baldurs Gate or Fallout

>>724081225
BG1 and FO1? now that i think about it, i have played FO1 a bit. and i enjoyed it but didn't finish.

>>724073060
The 2 series genuinely aren’t comparable.
Mass Effect 2 and, yes despite its enormous flaws, Mass Effect 3 have great things about them that justify their existence.

Dragon Age, it genuinely would be better for everyone if 2 onwards didn’t exist.

>>724081035
Origins had several women writers.
Shit - Helper's credited with some of the most kino writing in Origins with the Dwarven noble origin and then writes the shitty version of Anders in DA2. Just seems like mismanagement and no long term idea of what they want to do with the series.

>>724081521
there have always been based female writers and character designers
it's the woke mind virus that is fucking it all up

>>724071180 (OP)
Origins was always overrated slop
>Baldur's Gate shitty gameplay
>muh companions with le quirky chungus personalities
>muh edgy dark fantasy with the most cookie cutter DnD inspired setting
>overexpository characters
>shitty artstyle

>>724081716
you sound like a faggot

>>724081716
you really do sound like a faggot, you should unalive yourself... bigly !

>>724071180 (OP)
I preferred this on console over PC oddly enough. The controls and camera just felt like shit on PC, and yes I've played many RTWP PC games.

>>724071180 (OP)
I hate being a DAfag. It's been non stop suffering

>>724072781

There's literally nothing stopping you from recreating DA:O inside the Baldur's Gate 3 engine
