BioWare was shut down to fund more Star Wars games kek
>>750640290Sounds like the right call to me.
Star Wars and Marvel games until the end of time
>>750640290no shit. normalfags love star wars now
Titanfall 3 was also cancelled a year in development to focus more on Star Wars Unreal Engine 4
>believing schrierhe would do ANYTHING to preserve the validity of nothing less than aggressively pushing the progressive agenda. If he reported that bioware was shut down due to DEI falling out of favor then that would signal that DEI is a failure and could strengthen the pendulum swinging further away from it.
>>750640290after veilguard it was clear bioware had to gozero company and galactic racer were actually decent so star wars is on the up
>>750640290Kek, Based.>SWTOR outlived biohazard.
>>750640290I am okay with this.
>>750640290Fucks sake Battlefront was never worth it at any point. That game is all the shit parts of Battlefield and none of the good parts.
Soi wars is such a dead franchise at this point im not sure how disney accomplished it. I cant think of anything disneywars has put out that has been good. Maybe rogue one but its been a decade sicne i saw it
>>750640290Do people still like Star Wars?
Fucking lolThis is what you deserve. The shutting down of the diseased BioWar to fund a sequel to Battlefront II (2017), one of the most reviled AAA games of the last decade. You will see studios shut down to fund crap, and I won’t be buying.
Don't the star wars battlefront games die a couple months after launch?
>>750643473not really no
>>750640290>game company making games I stopped buying decades ago shut down to fund games I'll never buy nowI am completely unaffected by this news
>>750643310Only the OT and prequels are worth anything. And the Holiday Special I guess.
Star Wars games actually make money. BF6, an EA game, was 2025’s best-selling game. Selling BioWare for money to make a new Battlefront game makes sense. The framing of the article is that somehow EA’s decision was outrageous.
>>750644015There are a lot of mass effect dickriders who are really upset bioware shut down
>>750644015>>750644054idk anyone who plays these star wars games. feels completely fake. i can find ball & gun gamers believable but not star wars.
cool, can they unfuck SWTOR now?
>>750640290Star Wars, Trump and Hitler did this?
>>750643310No, but yidsney has to recoup the costs and they won't stop trying.>>750643473Yes.>>750644015>Star Wars games actually make money. False. Gonna be fun watching DICE go under after this.
>>750644409DICE makes Battlefield games. As I pointed out, BF6 was the best-selling game of 2025. Not just EA’s best-selling game, THE best-selling game of the year. DICE makes EA’s ‘gun’ games. They’ll be fine.
>>750644663Dishonest reframing of a live service that literally flatlined.
>>750644381Yes it’s drumpfs fault
>>750640290Jedi rollslop probably were better than anything bioware released in the same timeframe and I fucking hate soulslikes and love rpgs.
>>750644756>studio known for making fun gamesDeath is not enough for these things.
>>750644715I’m not talking about the Star Wars games anymore, anon, I’m addressing your false claim DICE is somehow in hot water.
>>750644756>bioware>american
>>750644907BF6 is a live service that flatlined. Being a bitch from reddit won't alter these facts.
Did anybody buy the 2 new EA SW games of 2026?They even had a movie this year that nobody watchedstar wars is pretty dead right now
>Jason shrieker
Battlefront 2 could be a decent game but hero units (especially jedi) are extreme cancer
>>750644756Leftists always show their true colors when they lose, huh?
>>750640290thats the lefty take, notice how they removed the part about bioware pumping out flops
I'd take Star Wars goop over anything nu-Bioware made.>It was going to be so good after over a decade of failure and being a laughing stockDoesn't feel that long ago Andromeda released and was the ass end of the gaming community, Anthem ceased support in under a year, and Veilguard being so damn gay even faggots didn't want it.But naaaaw, they were totally COOKING and it was going to be a return to form and a total blast!After 5 years of development they had jackshit to show EA when they came knocking and that's why they got sacked. They should be grateful they even survived this long.
>>750640290millennial journos relentlessly shill every piece of shit starwars game that comes out.
they knew bioware was too retarded to make kotor3, might as well give it to larian
>>750645272Remember when they had to patch the trans character in Andromeda since even they found them annoying.
>for the next battlefront gamefuckin nice
>>750640290Biowhore was shut down because EA is re-remastering all of the wing commander franchise games.https://www.pcgamer.com/games/sim/it-looks-like-wing-commander-3-is-getting-a-remaster-after-ea-producer-discovers-the-original-fmv-source-tapes-in-the-companys-archives/
>>750647353Boomers did this?
>>750647679EA murders anyone who fucks over their origin flagship IP
>>750640586This, guaranteed better return of investment even with the star wars IP being in the gutter.
>>750644968Irrelevant to the fact it was the best-selling game last year. DICE prints money for EA. They’ll be fine.
recent star wars games have been pretty decent so might be the right call
Can we please just get a damn Battlefront game like 2015? BF2 kind of sucked with the cards and heroes and shit. Make it more about regular troops.
>>750641297>>SWTOR outlived biohazard.also outlived sequels
>>750640865Do they?
>>750640865>normalfags love star wars nowlol
>>750640290Makes sense the turbo pozzed nature of disney raping the star wars franchise somehow hasn't infiltrated the EA branch pumping out star wars games
>>750643705yet you come here to reply how much you don't carecurious
>>750645272ikr, this wasn't some out of the blue closure, but one of the longest slowest slides into irrelevancy ever seen in gaming historythose subversives had multiple chances to course correct and start making money by making something for their actual audience and fans but decided to commit mass suicide to make the most preachy turbo pozzed dog shit imaginable with failguard and they would have done the same thing with the next mass effect
>>750640290Good. They could outright steal wardogs and just put starwars characters and kit in it and I'd be down for it.
>>750640290Nothing wrong with that.EA and Bioware ruined Mass Effect.Had they handled the franchise better Mass Effect could have easily dominated Star Wars considering Disney rape impact.
>>750648375I never said I didn't careI said I was unaffectedYou really thought you were so smart lol
>>750640290Wasn't a EA Star Wars game the same thing that killed Visceral Games?
>>750640290Who will buy Dragon Age? Its still an incredible IP with potential for new stories about social issues and race. We haven't seen the full spectrum of genders in a game before.
>>750648419I wish more people played The Citadel DLC for Mass Effect 3. Because it serves as the real farewell to the franchise.One of the plot points being an evil clone Shepard (Yes, it's silly. It's modeled after 80s and 90s action schlock, and all the voice actors are cracking jokes the whole time, it's meant to be very lighthearted) and this clone Shepard, in no uncertain terms, is meant to represent how EA is going to attempt to bring back Shepard but it won't be done by people who care, who are passionate, or even created this to begin with. It'll be evil and malicious with the only goal being to cash in on the franchise's popularity. Mass Effect was meant to end after it's trilogy.Remember when things were allowed to end? And it wasn't kept in perpetual limbo for eons to be dug up over and over for eternity simply because of brand recognition? It's this strange thing nowadays where franchises are never allowed to have a conclusion. There must be another sequel, prequel, spin-off, side story, etc.If you love it, let it go. The people who truly loved it let it go, a long time ago.
>>750640290ME was never getting made regardless. The Star Wars game is a by-product of the decision, not the reason behind it.
>>750649451It's crazy that everyone just up and decided that things are allowed to be lazy terrible pieces of shit just because they're video games. It genuinely isn't that difficult to make something good that you put effort into. But they just don't want to.
>>750650653It was meant to be a generic live service game for all audiences.
Mass Effect will get their own Jedi series from Respawn Same onions male, set during or just after the Reaper War
>>750651340KAI LENG ACTION GAME HERE WE GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>750640290EA picked a game over no gameREMINDERMass effect been in development for 7 fucking years, and they had nothing to show outside 1 trailer and were still in "early developement" with expected release date somewhere in 2030+, the budget would be at lest 500mln$ to cover over a decade of dev time by over 200 peopleBut to woke retards money is magic and comes from nowhere
what the FUCK was Bioware even doing?
>>750640290Mass Effect was a finished franchise and story, and there was zero chance of a new one being good at all. It would have been a woke trainwreck. EA made the right call.
>>750640290Good. Now shut that down too.
>>750640290So nu battlefront 2 wasn't enough of a failure
Ironic considering Kotor is what took Bioware to the mainstream in the first place.
