As much as I've enjoyed every single BioWare game I've played (This being everything they made after and including Baldur's Gate 2), they're really not the same brilliant company that created stuff like KotOR or Jade Empire. Will I probably play this? Yes. Am I as excited for this announcment as I would've been if it happened three years ago? Hell to the no.
BioWare's still a good company, but the majority of the people that made stuff like KotOR truly special are no longer there. That said, the fact that they're coming up with a new IP is good: It's always been the setting that's made BioWare games interesting, the plot's usually just been an OK excuse to explore it.
