I think some people are getting pissy because they seem to be going for a more action type exerience with light RPG elements rather than full on hardcore RPG mode. Oh alright, I actually didn't know :S I don't actually own any bioware games but they seem to be doing very well so I was surprised at all the hate. Thanks

They are doing very well IMO. I don't think game devolopers should have to stick to one type of genre, which is what most people seem to be getting offended with.

Why should a developer have to stick to a specific genre and get niche sales results?
Im personally glade Bioware is going for a more action type with RPG elements added, Much more fun
But judging from the pic, It doesnt look interesting at all, which I assume Spike Tv wanted since they probably grabbed any shitty pic off the bat they could find, so we would all have watch the crappy show!!

I don't care for Dragon Age but the Mass Effect series is as good as it gets and if this new game is even half as good it will be an amazing game. Also the Star Wars MMO that they are making looks amazing as well.    You just hate it because it's not an JRPG...you seem to hate just about everything that isn't a JRPG.

I actually wasnt hating on the company, just bringing to atention on how shockingly similar it is in the art direction to 3 other games.. this could of been any developer and my answer would be the same. JRPG, Platformers, fighters, and Action/adventure games and there sub genres are my favorite. What I hate is the blatant lack originality that this industry is going through specifically on this side of the map...its ok to be inspired by something but when multiple can obviously point your inspiration its not cool.

To be fair, this company is not having the best track record recently outside of the Mass Effect series. Even that purist bioware fans will argue is getting less RPG, and more Action.  Personally Borderlands/Rage come to mind when I see this. I already have borderlands 2, so this hopefully is nothing like that.  Well they've only made Dragon Age besides Mass Effect and whilst I agree that DA isn't all that great Mass Effect more than makes up for it. Also the Star Wars MMO looks pretty damn good.   Also how is Borderlands 2? You must have done something pretty incredible to get that game

I should really complete my sentences, I meant I already have borderlands 2 to look foward to.

But you can't just say the game will be unoriginal off of 1 single picture about a game you don't have a clue about.  

 

How about we wait until we see actual in game trailers and hear info about the game before we start making statements like that?

 

And there is a lot of hate going around in this thread toward Bioware.

Yeah I knew what you meant lol.

 

But one thing that needs to be considered is just because the 1 single picture that we have seen from a game we know nothing about looks like Borderlands, Rage, ect doesn't mean it will be anything like it.

In this case we kinda can - when something is deemed unoriginal it almost and always starts on a visual level 1st. Like did you have to play Dante's Inferno to realize it was a Rippoff of God of War? Nope the Art direction told us. as for everybody else ... thats them, I dont buy from this developer.

Yet a Spikey Haired Pre-Pubescent Emo kid with a sword 2x bigger than him is Original?

That's a totally different scenario

In that case we can say just about every game ever made is unoriginal right? Do you realize that Just because the one single picture of a game we've never heard any info of looks like Rage, Borderlands, whatever other game you want to pick doesn't mean it will actually play or be anything like that.

 

For example. Here's a picture I pulled off the web. 

It's FF XII-2. Now from that image I could come to the conclusion that the game will be an unoriginal Fallout rip off (for obvious reasons)

 

Now do you see how ridiculous the whole premise of calling this game out over a single photo?
