Guy seems like kind of a nutjob tbh, but I await his Special Announcement.

:nocountryforshitposters:

I said many times before that bioware became shit because slimy scum like cumson and darah slimed their way in directorial positions. In fucking Inquisition you could feel the darah's butthurt about the reception of da2 and his hate for dao. Same with cuckson and me3. Those two are really a bunch of petty and misserable faggots that couldn't recognize a good idea to safe their life,let alone come up with one lol.

which company's games will biodrones transition to now? Larian is clearly trying to appeal to them, but will their game mechanics be good enough for people who got used to awesome button gameplay, where CDPR will obviously stand tall above them?

Bioware decided to go all out for sycophants and danger-hairs, the mentally ill and the crazies. Hudson and Darrah were enablers, and now the inmates run the asylum.

I don't even know if the Bioware brand is worth much anymore.
The best thing would be to be aquired by Microsoft (Obsidian) or Cd Project Red.Then, a slight chance for a good Mass Effect or Dragon Age game would exist.

We should wait and see what kind of generic crap they produce under microsoft.

As a former member of the Bioware forums I can remember the exact fucking day the tone at Bioware shifted and their focus changed. When I first got in the forums around about when NWN was first released, everyone there were just DnD nerds who liked Bioware writing and also liked modding. The forums were a great place to share different mods for NWN and BG. Then the first Dragon Age hit.

The change was almost immediate. Suddenly, the fanfiction writers were showing up in numbers. They always existed since BG but weren't taken seriously. Then DAO came out with it's awful dialogue and everyone sounding like a retarded hipster. It tried to pander to those cretins. And Bioware were suddenly getting wanked off by the teenage girls who idolized being Joss Whedon's next rape victim. So of course Bioware decided those people were to be their audience going forward. The modders all gave up. All that was left was the retards who wanted to fuck Alistair or Garrus.

You are barking up the wrong tree if you expect me to bitch about romance inclusion,i don't mind it. The addition of it added flavour and made companions in generally more natural. I am not of the mind that rpgs should be just about killing shit and pointless loot you sell later on. I generally don't care for both modders and fanfic girls,there is not much difference. One write rape porn stories,other make mods about rape like A Dance with Rogues. In the end it is all about jizzing all over other peoples creation.

That said,i do believe that there is room for both things and creating a decent balance in games. Their actual decline begun with dragon age 2,and after that they haven't produced a decent game. Romance in bioware games was something you could easily ignore and focus on killing shit. It is what made rpg mechanics popular and reignited the rpg genre in general,which was nearly dead. Because of them we ended up with some pretty good rpgs.

Here is the industry now. You Market yourself as actor, actress, composer, musician, or something in the Media.

You do professional work as a work for hire, you get an agent set up a webpage.

Then you set up a twitter account. Now your in the industry as a work for hire with a twitter account.

You say something on Twitter that is against the Marxists idiots so they send a bunch of low vibrating things at you, that generally form a giant Blob of gook when they get together.

Soon all this Gook brings in people that are responsible for paying for said projects you work on ...uh oh!!!


"Imagine being famous your whole like is not your own, it's run by the Media. People believe that what they read in the Media is actually happening. You have to follow along or you aren't famous anymore"

Always when doing professional work be careful of what you say no matter where it is said.

Anything can be used against you at any time. There so desperate they would look up years past to frame you with something. Me too, or Some form of Made up Racist, anything.

and no I am not that intelligent and clever Voice Actor. I respect his work and understand what he has gone through.

Speaking of Dragon Age I played that with over a gig of Mods and it was damn Fantastic! I had full Nudity, Full Decapitation, Better battles, A bigger World, everything. I even changed the look of the characters.

I think that is what Dragon Age should have been. As I look at the RPGs now I don't see anything anywhere close to Dragon Age Origins.

Everything else is pretty tuned down compared to "This Is the New Shit." It really was the New Shit....Now it's rather turned to shit.

Funny Ion Zur won an award for the Score and Told him that his Intro sceen sounded like VSL and he could do better.

That was a live Orchestra.

I'm not opposed to the romances. But they were little pieces of a larger whole that made up your interactions with a character. It was a choice you had or a consequence of how you dealt with a character as part of a greater RPG. Starting with DAO the romances became forced, and terribly written in a way that is very recognisable to weirdos who read BtVS fan fiction a few years beforehand. And instead of improving, the idiots at Bioware hired Hamburger Hepler and got her to write even worse stuff. Then it compounded and snowballed into a focus on the absolute worse "shipping" I've ever seen. Not romance, "shipping" where everything is obvious and signposted. And characters openly declare their love in the most dramatic way. Instead of talking like normal people.

Actually DAO has the most realistic romance in any game. You just give shiny gifts to women and they love you, 1to1 with the real world. You may threat them as shit,but it is fine as long as you give them gifts.As for writing,well it is written by liberals,what did you expect? Every rpg from kwan in the last 30 years is that way,it is predominate religion and all that shit. I personaly enjoyed DAO and ME 1&2,tho ME1 was the best rpg out of them,still had a good rpg mechanics. ME 1&2 do have really good and interesting story/mystery,i am still butthurt about the third one,still want to know about the mass effect and what was making the suns go brrrr,and what were reapers afraid from. ME2's romance was a meme,but the game really did great job at fleshing out the game world and the characters were pretty well written for most part. People bitching about its romance are no different than people doing the shipping shit,over-focusing on only one part of the game and ignoring the rest.


As for the forum,yeah i get you. It is shit when some weirdos show up in your niche hobby place and turn it in to a shipping jizz factory.
