It’s not going to be as good as BG3, and I expect various excuses will be made about why.
At this point, I won’t believe it’s actually coming out until it’s actually for sale. I also don’t have any high hopes for it being very good if it does come out.
Last I heard, there were rumors that the scrapped squad based combat in favor of a God of War style action RPG.
If that’s the case, lol RIP and good riddance.
From what I heard, they were dropping from four companions to three, Mass Effect style, and wanted the combat to be more like God of War. So my fear is it’s gonna be like Andromeda, where you can’t control your companions’ abilities at all.
They said full announcement this summer, so this is encouraging! It’s completely 50/50 right now. Either it’s going to just flop and that’s it for Bioware - or they learned their lesson and it’s going to rejuvenate the brand.
BioWare has EA’s grubby fat fingers all up inside of it so I ain’t holding my breath. And I say that as someone who has a relative working for BioWare.
