| pezus said: RPGs should include all the things mentioned by Selnor and Lestatdark, not just stats or just choices. Bioware has so far taken more RPG elements out of their games and added more action elements. Some may like that direction, some may not. In my honest opinion, Bioware is nothing compared to its independent golden days. |
They're just going in a different direction. Unfortunately, the golden days of Baldur's Gate and KOTOR aren't here any more, and gamers want more action-focused experiences. I think a greater focus on action has actually worked very well for the Mass Effect franchise (whereas it practically destroyed Dragon Age)
It would definitely be nice, though, to see them go back to that formula for a couple of games now that Mass Effect is finished and Dragon Age soon will be.
