Some good news about this game. Drew Karpyshyn, head writer of Mass Effect 1 & 2 is writing for Anthem.

Then I will consider this is an excellent news. When Anthem announced at E3 I was kinda worried since I'm quite skeptical when it's gameplay video shown. Graphic aside, the video looks extremely scripted to me and after what happened with Andromeda, I'm in cautious state.

It was scripted but aside from that big monster at the beginning of the game, all the rest of footage seemed pretty normal to me.

1. You can fly down to areas. Seems normal to me.
2. You swim under water and fight dudes. Nothing too outrageous.
3. You attack those things at the end. Seemed like a mission event.


It didn't seem too scripted to me.

Looks interesting at least from an aesthetic perspective, but looter-shooters in which you have to autistically grind for RNG unlocks (or just pay real money haaaa) is the definition of cancer so it's likely a no-go for me.

They were one of my favorite developers years ago. KotOR and ME2 are two of my favorite games. It's just been a long time since I've liked them. stick out tongue

So EA stuck again and just killed Visceral. After the disaster that was ME:A, I expect Bioware is on thin ice. If this game doesn't meet EA's absurd expectations, I wouldn't be surprised if Bioware is closed down.

RIP Dead Space. You're up in survival horror heaven with Silent Hill now.

Judging by sales, Evil Within will be with you guys shortly. I'm glad Evil Within went out on such a phenomenal entry unlike Silent Hill Downpour or Dead Space 3 though.

Have you read the Kotaku story regarding Visceral?

I think there was major problems within the company. I don't think it's all on EA's feet.

Good article about this game (and Bioware in general). Backs up the idea that Bioware is basically putting all their eggs in the Anthem basket. This game needs to succeed or else Bioware may suffer greatly. Nearly the full brunt of Bioware is working on Anthem, including the Austin team who are taking a break from the Star Wars MMO to help out. It's all hands on deck.

With one caveat - There's a small team working on a new Dragon Age game and it has already been rebooted (probably not a good sign) to include "live" aspects, whatever that means.

I think they'd have little trouble if they just look at Destiny 2 and know what NOT to do. no expression

If Anthem is the game that decides whether Bioware stands or falls, then I hope it succeeds. They're the only ones I know that make the kind of RPG games I like. Without them....T-T

I think Anthem will do alright if (and it's a big if these days unfortunately) they don't muck up with the microtransactions. Gamers seem very very ready to absolutely destroy a game if it has what is viewed as predatory or unfair microtransactions. And since EA is helming this game they could very well get greedy and botch everything up like they did with Battlefront 2.

I'm like you, despite the fact that part of me is bitter that this is the game that got the development time from the A team instead of a new Mass Effect, I'd like it to do well and be a good game so that Bioware can continue to make games and hopefully one day make another great Mass Effect game.

I want Bioware to be taken out back and shot in the head because much like Bungie the majority of the people who made all those great games we fell in love with have long since moved on to greener pastures. The developers left are the ones who kissed enough EA ass to keep their jobs. Time to put the beast out of its misery.

I dunno. I mean I like some of the Bioware games that were made while under the EA banner from ME2 to DAI but Bungie has yet to make one good game since they left Microsoft for Activision IMHO.

There are still quite a few of the old guard of Bioware still there. Casey Hudson, drew karpyshyn, Patrick Weekes. Just that they are spread out to other projects now and are head honchos over there. Weekes is now the head writer of Dragon Age, Hudson runs the entire company, and Karpyshyn seems to just go where he's need to help with writing.
