At the very least, it looks alright. To me it looks really good. It's clear a fair bit of effort is going into it, and yknow what? Just because "Oh no Bioware isn't making an RPG!" yeah, they're allowed to not be, they're allowed to branch out.
There's already a game informer article out full of details, if the E3 conference was a bit naff for ya, that goes on about the way the game is split up into the hub being singleplayer, so the choices, changes, typical RPG story systems, still go on there, so those who like their RPGs still might be interested.
Look, it might not be good, who knows. I certainly genuinely don't. I like what I've heard so far personally, but hey, it might be good, it might be bad.
And I apologize to come across so defensive, I don't mean to sound harsh, am just trying to pose the other side since apparently no one else is.
Cos everywhere I friggin look there's such blatant pessimism. Saying it's gonna fail. Saying it's gonna be totally shit. And Bioware is completely ruined and done in.
And yeah, yknow what? if everyone goes in with the implicit bias of expecting it to be awful? It will fail. But that won't be based on if it's good or not, that'll be because everyone got it in their minds that it would be crap, and went in with that mindset.
That's precisely what happened with Andromeda. People thought it was rubbish, because they went into it with a biased mindset, and thus only looked at things that confirmed their own bias.
...Sorry to rant, and sorry that you're the one I've kinda went off at here Alex my friend, it's not anything against you personally, your comment is just the latest in a long line that's got to me. I just see all this pessimism everywhere, that's only ever going to lead to people not giving it a chance, even if it's good.
It might end up crap. It might end up great. It might end up meh.
But it deserves a CHANCE and the constant naysaying isn't giving it that.
