I should really get back into DA:I. Never finished it with all the releases that started coming out.

Archmagel3167d ago (Edited 3167d ago )

I know what you mean. All the great games that came after just filled my schedule.

That, and I am just not into it as I was the other two. Lack of healing magic (or at least for our party), the limit of skills (don't know why only the characters we control are limited to so few skills), the less "dark fantasy" feel, and the lack of stuff to fill the expanses of the world really killed the vibe for me. I still want to play for the story of the next one, though.

Maxor3167d ago

The Witcher 3 rendered DA:I unplayable for me. I just can't come back to that lifeless MMO like questing.

Last_Boss3167d ago

Good game, the companions is what pulls a lot of life into its story & gameplay.

SilverClock3167d ago

If you are a fan of Dragon Age and do NOTHING ELSE in the game, play this DLC. It is canon, it leads into DA4. It is the ending to Inquisition, and it's a good one.

Yui_Suzumiya3167d ago

I will definitely get this DLC then and load up my save to play this :3

rezzah3167d ago

Just started the second DLC, once I beat that I'll buy this one.

I think the only type of games that can gets away with it would be sport games, having those sponsors ads on the side like on real life.

But don't put freaking Doritos ads in Star Wars or something, it breaks the immersion. If it is a pop-up ads, then big no.

Report: Sexual Misconduct Investigation Conducted at EA, Suspects Named and What They Did Revealed

EA senior staff has been investigated for sexual misconduct involving female coworkers, and these said people have been named publicly.

isarai5d ago

Aye just call Phil, i mean he somehow made Bobby Kotick's scandal disappear and gave him a few million dollar high five on the way out.

Cacabunga5d ago

I wonder if it will be censored with some in game ads.

MrBaskerville2d ago (Edited 2d ago )

Microsoft did, Phil Spencer played a minor part. He instigated the buyout that led to Kotick escaping all his controversies while getting a golden handshake.

Someone on Twitter calculated that the people hired in Tango and Arkane Austin could get a decent salary for roughly 17 years for the money Kotick was paid.

InUrFoxHole2d ago

Yeah some thing tells me Kotics $ was already guaranteed before MS made the deal. As for the studios... Let's be honest here... none of those studios made system sellers.

XiNatsuDragnel5d ago (Edited 5d ago )

EA about to go down like Activision and then Phil saves the day saying.this is good for the industry and consolidation will help create competition. /s.

MrBaskerville2d ago

Then they shutdown Codemasters and studio behind Jedi Survivor.

Atleast they could hardly do much damage that EA hadn't allready done. EA has shut down most of their studios by now.

ravens525d ago

What's up with all these horny creeps. You gon be horny, fine. Just not at work take care of that shit before you go in. Rub one out if you have to. Don't be a creep at all. ESPECIALLY at work. But don't be one AT ALL.

Extermin8or3_5d ago

I mean part of the issue is that things transpired outside of work....

MrBaskerville2d ago

That's the thing he mentioned about not being a creep at all.

KwietStorm_BLM5d ago

You think deviants care where they are? Work sometimes makes it an even better situation for them because they can abuse their power.

mudakoshaka4d ago

Nerds think they are Gods when they are making video games.

NotoriousWhiz5d ago (Edited 5d ago )

"it seems that according to EA, given the events transpired outside of work between two adults, and the fact that once investigation has started that the alleged perpetrators didn’t do it again, the investigation is considered closed. [...] The victim still has to work with the people that harassed her."

Yep, EA is disgusting.

Extermin8or3_5d ago

I mean the fact stuff happened outside of work puts EA in quite a difficult position legally. These women don't seem to have reported the matter to the police which kinda ties EA's hands on what they can do. If they don't file reports of the crimes then yeah from EA's perspective it is stuff that happened outside of work. The only exception is the guy that apparently referenced things in the slack channel for work, spending on what he said proving it may be very hard and he may well be able to get away with plausible deniability. I don't like EA and I think these people need to be dismissed but without any legal action being taken, EA can't really do much without risk of being sued themselves for unfair dismissal etc.

Well, anything to make those shareholders happy, I guess. They're all that matters in this industry nowadays.

badboyz098d ago (Edited 8d ago )

EA stocks haven't been profitable in over 5yrs. They better hope Take-two don't get the FIFA license lol.
