Welcome back! I've referred people to the "cheating my way through college" several times when I've had to explain why I cheat in single player games. Escapist, for me, has been a weird site - it's the site where a lot of talented people started off and were more or less let go (with various...

At this point I'm not sure if bioware will be around in 2019..

Mistake #1: asking fans what they want.

Maybe it's about the merch?

Nice.

The first one had some interesting gameplay, some horrible writing and strange design decisions, like "let's make the player character a whiny person who nobody wants to be".

My guess is that they expected to raise the $700k in a couple of days and their actual budget is much higher.. since this didn't happen, they're retreating, regrouping and trying another angle of attack. Which is fine.

Reads topic. Checks steam. Mass effect 3 still not in steam. Life goes on.

Well.. probably closer to a thousand dollars with tax, shipping and customs included, if you happen to live in Europe. Not an impossible price to pay for a good (gaming) monitor, with stereo 3d and headtracking and stuff.. But it's not a monitor most people would use to browse the net, so...
