    I, for one, am disappointed that EA closed BioWare down without any pre-warning (that I know of).

    I liked all the MASS EFFECT games.

    Their reasoning was because two of their games that had come out as ONLINE ONLY didn't do well. Ya think? DRAGON AGE - enjoyed that series as well until it went ONLINE ONLY. The graphics sucked. The play was OK, but you no longer truly had the same feel as the previous versions.

    Pity as they have legendary history from before EA acquired them and early years with MASS EFFECT (personally I don't like Dragon Age that much, I liked first, then it was meh so so).

    But also kind of expected. EA keeps failing and since Muzyka and that other founder left BIOWARE it has become just another software house within EA doing what told and little risk.

    People who created best games of BIOWARE are probably somewhere else already and last 10+ years showed that crpg is strong if not dominating genre in gaming. We still must thank BIOWARE for that.

    RIP.
