put them down already, EA, they are clearly suffering

I made it to him saying corn maze in the most pretentious way possible before I had to close the video.

>>385102937
"THIS is the biggest challenge of my autistic career"

>>385105123
I heard it that way too. Freudian slip?

I was not aware corn mazes were memes now.

Yeah man, god forbid a company have fun while developing a new IP.

Also, Casey Hudson has returned and Anthem is being gone by the original Mass Effect trilogy team. I have confidence it'll turn out decent.

Fuck you, no seriously, at least step up your shill a little bit.

Just to reiterate a point from the last thread about exactly this topic: the corn maze is not just a small effort to start the buzz for Anthem a year out from its release. It's also to take the piss out of Destiny's $300M marketing budget.

The video is clearly done as a joke, even if hiring out the corn maze itself was a very real (albeit small) expense.

Yep, totally shilling while implying Andromeda was bad. The shill meme needs to die, too.

>>385105632

That's the reason why this is so cringeworthy. They tried to make an Adult Swim-tier joke without understanding the humour. The corn maze guy was the only one playing his role properly and sounded genuine. Every BioWare employee felt like they were forced to do the commercial so they hamfiisted it, like Nicolas Cage.

If you want to be funny by overhyping/overanalyzing a silly/stupid concept, actually be funny. Don't just half-assedly try to copy a joke you stole from Adult Swim.

This better be bait. Aw who am I kidding. Biodrones are so pathetic they literally get excited over getting shit on.

And 1. And 2. And KOTOR. And Neverwinter Nights.

But let's just dismiss him because of one bad game because that's apparently all it takes. Also, 3 as a whole isn't bad, just the ending. But what can I possibly expect of /v/?

Ok what the fuck is this "anthem" shit and do they think they can use this to buy back some of the goodwill they lost with the last two Ass Defect games?

Anthem, put bluntly, is Bioware's answer to Destiny.

It's an online looter shooter set to launch in fall 2018, as part of a ten-year plan with EA. It's been in development for the past four years, with Bioware Edmonton (the A-team) running the project.

>>385106189
It's (Totally Not) Destiny.

Looks uninspired as fuck, and why make a Destiny clone, was Destiny even that popular?

>>385106242
The guy at the end asking if he should say Bioware is fun to work with was a little funny, but only because he played his part well. None of the other jokes worked because they've been DONE TO DEATH IN THE PAST TWENTY YEARS or the employee talking wasn't giving an effort to not sound scripted.

>>385106434
>Stating facts is shilling now.

Yep, don't know why I expected reasonable people to exist on /v/.

>>385106440
It's not really a Destiny clone. It's not a first person shooter, for starters, and the gameplay is very different. It just shares some similarities in it's co-op nature and loot-based design.

>>385106339
>>385106373
Ahhhhhh so the joke is bioware is releasing a shittier version of shit that might not even be profitable when this shitheap makes it to PC?

Why do companies think they can compete with Overwatch?

>>385106440
There was a lot of hype leading up to Destiny's release.
BioWare did the same thing they did with SWTOR, which is look at what's popular right now and make a knockoff that will take so long to develop that the trend will already have died by the time it's released.

>>385106171
>B-But look at the games they made in the past
It's the worse thing you can say to defend modern Bioware, Casey Hudson is not the same person anymore, neither is the company he is working for. Good old times are not coming back, not with a fucking Destiny clone of all things.

>>385106567
To Destiny's credit, Bungie was hot off the Halo series, and they were pitching the game as their magnum opus, the ultimate game they always wanted to make.

Anthem has had no such posturing by Bioware. It's just a project, albeit one in a field that's relatively new to them.

>>385106789
So what game sounds more fun;

Great dev making their dream game
Or dying dev making a clone game because sales

For what it's worth, Bioware gets to watch Destiny 2 flop and flail for a year or so before they launch Anthem. Undoubtedly, Destiny 2 will challenge them with an expansion release, but I think they'll partly be banking on people burned out on Destiny 2 and looking for something just different enough. I mean, you've already got all the big Destiny YouTube channels saying they'll be watching Anthem.

>>385105123
>>385105208
Obviously it's his accent but definitely heard it too

>>385107204
You're delusional if you think Destiny 2 will flop. Sure, maybe critically, but it'll be a huge seller and people will eat up the expansions when they come.

>>385102937
I didn't realize it's a joke
Am I an autist?

>>385107404
I didn't mean flop as in sales. I meant watching all the missteps of the game, like the inevitable balancing issues and content drops and whatever complaints players will come up with.

>wasting good corn on this shit
Both Edmonton and EA should feel afraid.

>>385107457
Ahh, well then yes, you'd be correct in that. Destiny 2 is bound to have tons of balancing issues, lack of content, and pretty much all the issues the first game had.

>>385102937
I wish my 'ceps were as abig as they british guy's

>>385102937

>thinking corn is any good and isn't a weed crop

America has such a corn surplus that they literally put it into any food they can just to get rid of it, from candy to ketchup. Even trying to find ways to incorporate corn into building materials.

>>385105495
Anthem is every sci-fi shooter trope of the gen wrapped up in a warm soft "we want the Destiny audience" roll. Even the logo is derivative sci-fi.

God damn i LOVE sweet corn

>>385107992

Ever notice native Americans generally avoid corn mazes

They probably think the concept is a bit redundant.

maybe they just think the ad is a translation for white people

Either way, can't see them making any reservations.

I'm not sure how bioware made andromeda worse than me3 and me2 but they did so with flying colors. ME1 was mediocre at best and they stretched it into a terrible series.

>>385107806
A looter shooter where you get to fly like Iron Man? Not being locked to a single class for your character (one character, multiple Javelins [exo-suits])?

Reminder that if you want a face to blame for this project, here you go.

>>385111007
Andromeda wasn't the same team doing Anthem. In all honesty, I don't know why Bioware would ever let such an untalented team touch Mass Effect.

>>385114418
Edmonton (A-team) has been on Anthem for the past four years. The D-team (wherever they were) had Andromeda for upwards of five years. It's unclear if people from any other project were slowly being funneled away to Anthem in the intervening time.

That said, which project would you rather have your A-team working on: the well-established IP you've cultivated for a decade, or the brand new IP in a new genre?

>spending budget on this shit
>telling the world about it
>after ME:A
is Bioware secretly a hero trying to kill EA from the inside or are they just that fucking retarded

>>385115352
Edmonton has done everything possible to distance itself from Andromeda, especially since they didn't work on it. They don't want people like you poisoning the well for Anthem just because Andromeda was done by a different team in the same company.
