I don't think its dumbed down for the console gamers. I think it's dumbed down for the FPS players. Fps are huge casual market sellers. So bioware whating to tap into the casual market made a game with lots of action,easy learning curve, no complex menus or complex leveling and a short game so the casuals don't lose intrest. I am surprised they didnt try to tack on some online or co-op to the game.
Also, who is to blame for this? Is it bioware or is EA forcing this on them? |
If they think console gamers need it dumbed down, then either they wildly underestimate their average IQ, or, if they are right, something horrible must have happened to 200 million brains... =8-O It makes sense. After all, consoles have, and had particularly in the past, also complex and/or deep games, they managed to have them since they gained the ability to save games or resume them from checkpoints. But do devs and publishers always forget they tried this wannabe smart trick countless times and they just managed to make RPG fans furious, while earning very little interest from FPS ones? I got nothing against simple games, a simple game can still be great and bring a lot of fun. But a dumbed down game absolutely cannot.
About the culprit, the publisher is always the main suspect for this shit...
