I feel like BioWare’s got to be sweating even more over Dreadwolf. Larian upper the bar - a bar BioWare first established - and given the last games, BioWare might not be able to clear it.

BioWare doesn’t exist. It’s an EA branding exercise. It’s not the same studio — or even a pale imitation of the original. It. Is. No. More. In every way that matters. RIP.

BioWare is a dying studio, every few years they either have lead staff leave or they announce major production problems.

They will either shut down or just be a brand for another new studio soon.

At this point, it’s been in development for over 10 years, and I don’t even believe Dreadwolf is actually coming out. I won’t believe it’s coming out until it’s actually available to buy.
