Why the fuck is the spiritual successor of Baldur's Gate being casualled down? Why are BioWare becoming shit at RPG's?

First we have Mass Effect 2 dropping a whole bunch of RPG elements and now Dragon Age follows...

Annoyed.


I have a feeling Bioware would have been better off not mentioning Baldur's Gate at all. It attracts a crowd that wants that type of game and that is not the type of game Bioware is going to make anymore.

They say all the time that they want narrative driven or story driven games. Basically not RPGs in the classic sense. This really screws with peoples expectations.

I know I wont be picking up dragon age 2 or any other Bioware RPG until they get back to what makes you enjoy an RPG.  When did upgrading armor become something I didn't want?  I want a complex battle and frequent in game pauses to make critical decisions that affect the outcome of my party, that's what a good RPG does.  I kept reading about how Bioware listens to it's user base, there is no way in hell there user base is asking for this dumbed down crap.  I realize crap is a strong word, I'm sure the game is ok, but why should I or anyone else settle for ok.
