I just wanted a successor to black & white God damnit. What a letdown it turned out to be.

Love this video so much.

Well this is.. hmm.. this is something. That's for sure.

Top review on the 2nd version you posted says this:

"For some reason, EA delisted the original version of Mass Effect 2 on Steam and replaced it with a newer version that seems identical in everything except two aspects. Firstly, it now includes all DLC, which previously required you to buy them on the EA launcher and then manually download and transfer them to the Steam version. This process was not intuitive, but now it's all included at no additional cost and hassle-free. Secondly, it now requires the EA launcher, which is annoying but not a huge deal in the end. However, it does create a situation where we have two nearly identical versions of the game in our libraries, which is a bit odd. I suppose this could've been an update instead."

That's like saying why wear PPE and follow safety protocols on a construction site, it'll save us money if we don't do any of that. Nobody died or got hurt? Perfect.

There's a reason things need to be done a certain way, if something had gone wrong what would've been the consequences? What if all those data racks full of personal user information were just straight up stolen by the random movers they hired off the street?? What if the floor had collapsed under the weight of the servers being moved, tipped the server over and crushed someone? Just because things worked out relatively fine doesn't mean no harm no foul.

Musk is an idiot. Deciding to do things his way to save money and time reflects poorly on all his other companies.

I haven't played that much of the game so far but God damn that was all perfect.

Yeah, it was almost close to release and apparently it was a tire fire. Who knows how much of the original they kept. I really hope it's good, the first bloodlines was a blast if you ignored or modded out the bugs.

Luckily for me reddit made it easy by killing 3rd party apps and I only ever browsed it with RiF.

Delay as long as you need, just please release a good game. I loved the first game, and while I felt DA2 was a step back, I still enjoyed it. DA3 felt too... MMO-y to me.

It's such an amazing world to play in, I really hope the 4th installment isn't garbage.

Same here. Love the game so much, but I end up taking a big break and coming back and not knowing how to play, so I just start new. Rinse repeat. Seems there's a year to build and launch a rocket before this expansion drops, so maybe I should fire it up again and give it another try.
