Bioware has in development 3 publicly known RPGs and it got me wondering where their priority lied if Bioware were forced to shut down one of the RPGs. Then I started to think which of those 3 projects had the least potential in profitability - I set my eyes on Mass Effect due to various factors:
Comparing ME2 to Dragon Age:
1- It is only being released on 2 platforms, while Dragon Age will be out on 3.
2- It will only come out on PC some time after the X360 is out.
3- It is much less likely to make a killing on expansions than Dragon Age.
4- Dragon Age is being hailed as the spiritual successor of the best RPG ever.
Comparing ME2 to Star Wars: The Old Republic:
1- Has a much higher budget than Star Wars MMO.
2- Doesn't have the brand pull that Star Wars has.
3- The F2P Market is booming.
4- Won't have anywhere near the longevity that the typical MMO has.
Thoughts? And please none of that typical "ur wrong lawl" responses with no argument value.
