Great, now instead of fucking up meh Bioware projects they get to fuck up Kim Swift's and Amy Hennig's good projects.

>not shitcanning all of them
what the fuck is EA doing?

>>385745961
Well, they were EA before they were refashioned into BioWare Montreal, so now it's just a reversal to how things were before.

I have absolutely no idea how this game could fail and sink the studio

I thought she was on amazon game studio or something

I already mourned Bioware. I'm not mourning a bunch of their interns fucking around with environment maps.
>>
old news finally made official. they divided bioware montreal among jade's team and the rest went to anthem back in may. its pretty much the same thing that happened to maxis; all the talent is obviously gone so shuffle whatever people are left around and delete/absorb the old company while nothing really changes. remember casey hudson has been brought back in to manage anthem. nothing will change at all, except maybe whatever game jade is making, since her team has now been diluted with even shittier people.

I don't understand EA. Why buy Bioware if you will milk them until they only make dudebro games?

Good riddance, it's not like getting rid of EA will suddenly turn them into good developers

Two possibilities
>Absorbed means the 2 good team members absorbed by Motive to continue being good
Or the more likely
>Merged because despite being shit ME:A sold well might as well spread that money spewing cancer around!
Knowing EA probably no.2

because corporations are not known for sensibility
EA execs responsible probably don't even get the difference between ME1 and andromeda, they think they are doing the same but "better" and for a wider audience which also means "better"

Montreal is not the main BioWare studio, though. They were basically the main studio's fluffer and worked on shit like DLCs, then someone got the idea they could make a full game and Andromeda happened.

yeah, sure stacks of copies on shit bins everywhere is just /v/ memeing even tho other people reported the same
>>
>>385747630

You kind of answered your own question.

Historically, EA has been buying studios with a notable track record or established IPs because it saves them the production costs of doing it themselves.

They then utilize the established reputation of the IP to reach the existing audience, and gradually change it/them to be more accessible to a wider demographic.

Jade Redmond is a genius dont give her a trash team like the "bioware" team...
>>
Who gives two shits? Any real talent left Bioware a long, long time ago.
>>
>>385746227
lets be realistic here, andromeda was fucked up as much by every other studio and part of EA involved as it was by Bio montreal.
They are merely mixing one kind of trash with another instead of letting them shit out their refuse seperately as before.
>>
>>385749197
>no citations just my primary gaming digits

Someone bought those copies you see in pics at thrift stores, bought them from EA.
>>
>This is to build the new IP around Jade Raymond's team that she's been building. We brought our BioWare Montreal team into that same facility.
The fuck, I thought she was Ubisoft?
>>
>>385749659
But then why don't let another studio, one with more competence and practice in making dudebro games, make them?

Why use Bioware, that specializes in RPGs?

They could have studios to make dudebro games AND bioware to make rpgs.

Now, without bioware, other studios are going to try to fill that niche (like CD Projeck Red to some degree).
