Was Andromeda really that hyped? I thought everyone walked into that one knowing what it would be.
But I totally get the fall between 3 and Andromeda. 3 gets shit but I really loved that game. The ending was weak but I didn't mind.
I'll believe it when I see it
Just gonna pop this on a new page seen as it's at the bottom.Command and Conquer 4 exists, so no. Even after the EA aquisition of Westwood, you had Generals, Zero Hour, C&C3, Kane's Wrath. Red Alert 3 was marmite. But C&C4? Killed it straight in its fucking tracks. To the point the point they didn't even have the balls to fully realise their plans for Generals 2. It was an abomination that died in Alpha when they self confessed that people literally did not want the game they had envisioned. All momentum for that franchise died with C&C4.
My guess is;
If Anthem is successful, that will become the new EA Bioware space game.
If Anthem is not successful, Bioware might not be around much longer.
hm i don't think Other M was that damaging. not like what happened to ME.
the series is still alive and getting new entries.
ME had it worse unless it receives a new entry.
Tomb Raider: The Angel of Darkness nearly killed the series, and set both dev and publisher on a path of inevitable closure or getting acquired by another company.
So I think that one was a tad more damaging .
Hello friend, can I introduce you to God of War Ascension, Gears of War Judgement, Metroid Other M, Metroid Federation Force and Dragon Age 2?
and how EA ruined Star Wars Battlefront.
A reboot could absolutely save face for Mass Effect. If fucking Tomb Raider can claw it's way back to being a reputable franchise, then Mass Effect is fine. If ME never returns, it won't be because of a lack of viability of the franchise, it will be because Bioware imploded and shut down before it was given the chance.
It's not a definitely awful game but I don't think it's nearly as refined as the first two games, while the true death knells were the inflated budget and intrusive monetization driven by brash expectations for the series to be so much more than it was.Why people say Dead Space 3 ?
I mean it not horror game but it still good game.
And Visceral Games want add co op since first game even Dead Space 3 original concept.
Need for Speed begs to differSquare Enix seems a little more forgiving of franchises and studios who makes mistakes than EA.
DA, GoW and Metroid have recovered already while ME looks like it could, at the very least, be killed off.Hello friend, can I introduce you to God of War Ascension, Gears of War Judgement, Metroid Other M, Metroid Federation Force and Dragon Age 2?
Surely not.
Don't get me wrong, the people responsible for Andromeda thoroughly screwed the pooch, but I have trouble believing it was the worst such instance.
How about Dawn of War 3? I'm given to understand that died in the arse in short order.
I don't play fighting games, but didn't the latest Marvel Vs Capcom recently pass out in a ditch?

I agree. DS3 wasn't nearly as good as DS1, but I think I probably enjoyed it just as much as DS2. I don't think horror and action need to be mutually exclusive; DS3 was simply Aliens to DS1's Alien. I feel like some of the bolder decisions (both in terms of design and storytelling) in DS1 actually got walked back in DS2 (i.e. before DS3).Dead Space 3 is a great game, EA just had unrealistic wants of it, like the two previous games before it.
The entire series did poor, they only made more in hopes it would grow, never did.
Halo 4 was a pretty awful mess. Master Chief Collection too if that counts.
That's weird, because unless they've got a KOTOR III I'm secret development, Battlefront games don't come anywhere close to scratching the same itch that Mass Effect does.Makes me wonder if EA even cared for ME anymore after they got a hold of the Star Wars license? Seems if and when they no longer make Star Wars games they may dig up Mass Effect again.
I think Mass Effect is big enough that it could come back in the future as a good will effort. Something like C&C just doesn't have the broad appeal that a mass effect would imoIf it wasn't EA, I would agree. With them it's a toss up.
This is the same company that dropped its premiere space sim franchise even after decent sales of Wing Commander: Prophecy, then let the franchise continue to rot when Star Citizen raised hundreds of millions with nothing to show for it, proving the thirst was real.
This is the same company that killed Dead Space after one poorly received game.
This is the same company that wasn't smart enough to cancel C&C 4 and start over.
This is the same company that pushed BioWare into the GAAS model instead of making KOTOR 3, even when they had the Star Wars license, exclusively.
Then again. This is the company that released a sequel to Mirror's Edge.
So I guess we'll see.
But, in my opinion, Paper Mario: Sticker Star is, by far, the worst game following this way of thinking. It's just sad to think it's from the same company and the same series from Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door. And it's sadder that the Mario & Luigi games are following that pattern.
DS3 was simply Aliens to DS1's Alien. I feel like some of the bolder decisions (both in terms of design and storytelling) in DS1 actually got walked back in DS2 (i.e. before DS3).
^For me personally its ME 3. as evident by I couldnt give two shits about any other mass effect games after it.
