Nobody was going to buy DA3 after the DA2 debacle. In fact sales were so anemic and the game got such bad press that retailers refuse to stock the proposed "Ultimate Edition" of DA2 because it would be a "waste of shelf space."

DA:O is still stocked and in fact sells for more than DA2 does. Bioware needs to right the ship or they are pretty much finished as a quality dev at least in my eyes.

bioware is failing so bad as late, really depreses me. I loved them since the orginal KOTOR and jade empire.

I love dragon age and mass effect but M3 was a failure and this is turning into a huge mess.

Now not only did they sink my favorite single player RPG because of this game, now they are going to ruin my 2nd favorite being dragon age lovely.

This is good and bad.

Good.because more recources to ToR hopefully improving game quality.

Bad, I love Dragon Age, and enjoyed da2 even if it wasn't as great as origins, which means ill have to wait a long time for it :P ah well if swtor improves I can't complain.

I like David Gaider. He is more than welcome to work on SWTOR (assuming he is moving over).

But, by all that you find great in the world, do not bring Mike Laidlow over to SWTOR. I'm not sure how he's even employed, but if you must keep him employed, let him work on another Sonic the Hedgehog game. He already destroyed a once great RPG franchise (if one can count one game a franchise-DA:O). We don't need him bringing his 'just press A for awesome' mentality to SWTOR.

Please. Pretty please, with sugar on top?

This doesn't seem to bad to me.

The said the moved alot of resources to end game and server tranfers and stuff. So brining in a DA team to fill in for single player story would make sense to me

I have my doubts about this. The BioWare Social Network Dragon Age forums, for the past few months, have been abuzz with community discussions of Dragon Age III. Laidlaw, Epler, Gaider, etc. have all been pretty active discussing Dragon Age III concepts. Unless this is just a couple month stint, I have a hard time believing that there's no development work that can be done for the game right now.

It's been real but the game just wasn't worth the sub for me anymore.

Are you serious? How come instead of using the superb RVR concept in WAR and DOAC, they decided to make such mini-scaled backyard mini games?

Not particularly impressed by either the Mythic crew or the Dragon Age crew being on this game. Neither crew has been stellar of late. Mythic has already soured SWTOR, and I don't even want to know what they have in mind for the DA crew.
