    I mean, EA purchased them late in the devoloment of Mass Effect. So, a lot of their best games came out under EA. Plus, they lost almost everyone over the next 19 years.

    I’m fine with them just letting it go or at least waiting for the current owners being desperate enough to not extort them over the sale.

      They are responsible for the games that catered to the DnD crowd. I didn’t know that the original guy who went off to make beer, last check, is now Beamdog. And I’ve replayed them all.

      EA has to know they’re not going to make saleable versions of ME and DA going forward. The money there is in the sales of the already present games. As such, they should be able to work something out there, between past and future games.

      What would be fun is launching a new timeline on DA. A here’s where we would’ve gone chain.

        I mean, they’re owned by the Saudi PIF. They would take out anything that made those universes good. So, I really hope they don’t try to make games in their series.
