Great RPG + Character development in a world of action adventure. More genre melding with a skew to Action.
Wholly owned IP from EA."

"Online" game doesn't mean storyless/character'less.
Because they always copy successful competitors few years too late and current trend is Destiny
Are the same people (generally speaking) who worked on the original Mass Effect games working on Andromeda or this new IP?
Online and action-focused are not the direction I wanted to see Bioware continue to slide. Shame, but I haven't adored a game from them since Origins and ME2; they've just radically changed as a company into something that's far less of what I want from games.
They already have 2 Destiny type IPs with ME and Star Wars.Because they always copy successful competitors few years too late and current trend is Destiny

not sure they would want third.
I am betting on historical game.

To throw in my two cents here: Action RPGs are literally the only ones you can get away with making in the AAA Western $60 space.
People who worked on KOTOR and Mass Effect are working on this ohne
Andromeda is from a new core team
I wonder if it'll be sci-fi or fantasy or something actually more original
From the tiny bit we've seen it looks sort of sci-fi
It looks Modern(?), I'd guess urban fantasy ala The Secret World.I wonder if it'll be sci-fi or fantasy or something actually more original
I guess it depends where you're drawing the line, but DAI got solid sales on something that's only minimally action.
Wasn't that from the initial Andromeda teases or am I thinking of something else?

Nope this is from the original New IP tease

True but that's a series that appears to be stuck in between a rock and a hard place with where to take it's combat. Additionally the next game in that series appears to be a Turn based SRPG spinoff.
Ah, it looks so similar to be honest that I had to do a double take. Just found the original video and it does sort of look sci-fi but I'm not saying it will be that just yet, all that tiny piece of footage does is tell us that it won't be something based in history.
That's disappointing. I've never been a fan of Massively Multiplayer games so if Bioware's new Star Wars RPG is online and, I can assume, similar to TOR, I'll likely never pick it up.
I feel the same way. If it's multiplayer centric then it's not for meI'll try to remain cautiously optimistic. They talk about character development and such... But if it is mainly a multiplayer experience, it's probably not for me.
Basically. It's gonna be interesting to see what it is, hopefully gameplay is better than the divison's.That's EAs Destiny, right?

Hot garbage, that's what im expecting. I can be wrong but i imagine the conception phase was mostly done by a checklist on what the competition has.
"Massively" probably doesn't apply here.
Think more like groups of 4-8 tops with an option to play most things solo.
Yep. I don't think anybody was asking for a non-RPG online focused action game from Bioware. But I'll reserve judgement.And like that, any hype generated by the topic title became instantly flaccid.
