It would not be an exaggeration to say that Bioware's games were a large part of my early development as a creator. From Baldur's Gate to Mass Effect to Dragon Age (fuck, I even gave ANTHEM a shot).

It may come as a surprise that I am not terribly saddened by their closing. Bioware as we knew it had been effectively dead for a while, and their last Dragon Age title really showed that the people who made those memorable games were no longer calling the shots.

What I AM sad for is that it didn't HAVE to be this way. It didn't HAVE to be a sacrifice to the Dark Horde that is Electronic Arts. But we live in a world where if a game doesn't promise to make all the money in the world, it's not worth making.
