And once their various departments have pressed button many times enough, a game comes out.Everytime Bioware presses a button, something horrible happens.

So BioWare made a MMO Romance Simulator?
Maybe so, but if that's the case, then Bio and EA are huge retards. Fallen London's F2P system was atrocious, and it was one of the two things that finally turned me off that game (other was really grindy endgame parts). I would have happily paid a full standard MMO monthly fee to get unlimited access to FL back then, even if I wold have burned through content too fast. But those limited action points drove me crazy.Maybe their expertise was required not for good storytelling and atmospheric writing, but for how to monetize story in a f2p game.
Fallen London is after all a F2P game (not really MMOish though).
Is C&C even still arond? I vaguely remember the reveal that it would be f2p, then EA doing a u-turn and insisting it would have an SP campaign, then...was it cancelled?
Moral of the story, cool trailers mean jack shit.
I didn't mind the limited action points but it really pissed me off when they reduced them from 20 to 10 at some point in order to make the paid members feel better. When it was called Echo Bazaar the f2p system was pretty decent, but they jewed it out more and more afterwards
It is scary, just not the way BioWare had intended.If that teaser was supposed to be scary...
Heh... heh...
Well, at least he has android.[snip]
