The synthesis wave from ME3 was powerful, fast and far reaching that it was able to catch up to the arks. Shepard fucked up eveyrone, even those trying to escape.

Horrible animations, dialogues and voice acting aside, the game just looks mind-numbingly boring to play. In a mass effect game, I want to do exciting missions and watch how my squad mates react to dialogues, not grind single-player MMO quests. Whoever thought that introducing fill the bar mechanics in a story-driven game's single player campaign was a good idea must have been smoking some low quality crack. And people thought ME2 was bad back in the day

It will be released soon. Lets hope it burns and make everyone see bioware as the laughingstock they really are.

(But ea probably will pay shill journos to prevent that. We will see)

Moo?
I dunno, feels like EA is giving them that last push to see if they're still viable. Sure, have some marketing. If this fails their next project will have about a third the budget and probably be the last. Then they'll be EA Studio #341, 'carrying on the tradition of excellence', and other such rot.

A more "normal" version of Ryder in this Character Creator still looks fucking terrible.

The last time I've heard people talking so much about the dead eyes syndrome in a game was when NWN2 was coming out and that was years ago.

The difference AFAIK is that NWN2 has actual gameplay while ME:A doesn't

I thought the hate for NWN2 was due to the setting, characters, and plot, not the gameplay.
No, the gameplay sucked too, but I had hated NWN as well. No more move/counter-move spells like in BG. Complete trash. ToEE was decent, but I didn't care for the spell system in that as much as in BG either. 3rd edition really brought the decline it seems.

I'm curious what you think about IWD2.
