Dragon Age Veil Guard

Cool

I was wrong then

Maybe I just don't like seeing people celebrate when things fail in the hobby I enjoy

When a game I looked forward to turns out disappointing and fails, it makes me sad, not happy

Seeing people wish a game fails before it even launches and then celebrate when it does fail makes me mad

I cannot think of any other hobby where this is the case

Get some thicker skin. It's like people celebrating their football team's rival loses in an embarrassing manner.

Sure it's a bit sad that everyone at Bioware is probably going to be laid off in the next year or so, but such is life. When you hear the development hell DA:V was in, it shouldn't be a surprise.

Three huge failures in a row are usually 2 more than a normal company gets anyway.

The 90's and early 2000's were fekking great man
Back when we were still in unity within our hobby

We had collective joy when a sequel was good and collective disappointment when it wasn't but nobody wished that the sequel to their favorite IP will be bad. That is a modern phenomena

Knowing a game will probably fail doesn't mean you can't be disappointed or that you should be happy when it does

That's just a weird way of enjoying a hobby man
 
I think a lot of discussion comes from the fact that this is supposed to be the team that is making the next Mass Effect. People are starting to seriously doubt that game ever seeing daylight, based on this game's performance and consequences of poor results.

When Casey Hudson left in 2020, I got the feeling that we lost the best chance of another amazing Mass Effect game.

And it's very disappointing
Especially after the disappointment that Andromeda turned out to be

But there is a large amount of people who actually wish that the next Mass Effect, if it comes out, Is bad and that it fails
Who thinks that way?

I don't think many people think that.

They think Bioware won't exist long enough for it to be made.

There are a LOT
Spend enough time in the hellscape that is Twitter and you will be shocked at how many 'gamers' with 10's of thousands of followers crap on games before they are even out

The amount of hate Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 got before launch is shocking

So games should only ever get praise, even if you strongly disagree with developers lying and being incompetent?

Wait till it is out and then form your own opinion

If you don't like the game, fair enough
But why wish it does fail? What do you get out of it?

Guess what?
KCD 2 is amazingly good and the 'anti-woke' hated it for no reason

I rather dev houses die than people piss over the IP

Example Star Wars: Use to be a huge fan of the series esp with KOTOR and Movies, Clone wars and what not. The crap that now wear the name killed everything Star Wars for me, hell I dont even look at the Star wars Lego sets.

Same sht is happening to games, they killing IP's left right and center.

Correct

But did you wish they turn out bad, or or you disappointed they did?
That's the difference

What if the roles were reversed, would you think it's perfectly fine if an established character like Ellie had an optional romance with a man in TLOU3?

I'm sure many would not.

Makes no difference to me

If I can choose not to have it that way, why give a feck?
 
Of course people should be outspoken. You can't live your life with your head in the sand.

There's no reason whatsoever to wait for release dates. They take years to make and by the time its out we've seen 1/3 of it from previews/trailers/articles/interviews/demos.

Call it like you see it.

Fanboyism is dead. Get with the times.
 
Correct

That's the difference

At the start no, but now for example in Star Wars, after they killed the IP for me, every time I hear they're making a new <Incert Product> I hope the L is bigger than the last one.

Only thing that would revive my interest in Star Wars is if that KOTOR Remake came out and was good.

Sadly it sounds like it's in dev hell.

Nobody is celebrating their failure.

They are celebrating that their failure has consequences.
