You are an idiot. There, it's that simple. You also lie. The simple fact is is that i don't 'love' all their games. R00fles!

Bullshit.

It has to do with offering save game importing as a feature, and them saying that your decisions carry across games, then following that up with him taking this snide tone and saying pretty much "Your decisions don't matter, ours do."

It's just not the feature as offered. They claim to have cross-game C&C as a selling point, but also say that your choices might not matter after all... in some tucked away forum post.

Did he advertise that EVERYTHING would transfer? In this article he says the world will transfer, and gives a list of major political ramifications:

Leliana is a nobody so I would assume that she doesn't count. Not that I don't think Laidlaw is being an asshole, but I think expecting everything to cross over into other games is a bit absurd.

Edit:

For example in my 2nd playthrough on the wounded coast Sophie Drydan appeared. I let her live in that origins playthrough and was really surprised to see her. I killed her in a different save that I imported and so instead of Sophie you just get giant spiders. It was a nice surprise!

If they bothered with this shit and kept Leliana alive then I guess there is something more to the story than a simple retcon.

There's no such thing as a good explanation for this, only excuses that the writers will have to come up with "The maker cured her decapitation", "It was all a dream" in order to justify their short-sightedness.

Why not? The Maker did tell her to join you. :troll:

It's also possible she's not human at all. Gaydar does say they haven't said anything in regard to her at all. It's possible (though highly unlikely) that they may have some interesting twist down the line.

And the arrogant tone bioware faggots take against their fans is disgusting, even the QA monkey claimed that everything was working as intended when that guy got banned from his EA account.

Don't really have an argument here, Bioware's full of passive aggressive assholes.

Do you REALLY want to go down this road? You *will* lose. Trust me on this, dudette.

Not fans, customers. No such thing as 'fans'. And, the so called custiomers deserve it. If a customer is gonna be an asshole be an asshole right back. Seems fair to me.

So, I youtubed the "your mom gets turned into a frankenstein monster" quest because it sounded interesting and... my God this has to be the shittiest dialogue I've seen in quite some time.

Who the fuck talks like that? I particularly loved that touch at the end where Merril decides to start a religious debate with someone whose mother just died. Who the fuck does that? Especially a character they're trying to portray as innocent and naive? I mean I can sort of understand it in this video since it's supposed to be lulzy, but a serious scene like that?

Huh? O RLY? Religious debates like this occur in RL all the time. Just ask the a-holes who like to interupt funerals with their religious ramblings.
I wouldn't call Merril innocent either. Naive in the proper ettiquette yes but innocent no. Afterall, this is the same girl who thinks it's 'cool' to witness muggings in her neighbourhood that she just moved into.

LMFAO

Not between friends when someone's mom just died.

Merril = fred phelps?

Err, she thinks getting mugged is a good thing. The alienage greeting to be more specific:

That's pretty much the definition of innocent actually.

Stop the liez start the self immolationz.

His first and much older posts before he was crowned as our resident Codex Princess were not too bad. Much better than the fucking shit spam posters we have now on this site.

Silliest game EVAR.

Please go through the trouble of watching it. RPG = Rocket propelled Guys.

How about this in comparison?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyRZo521NlM

Takes far more skill, and is fun to just watch. And DMC4 is easier by far than DMC3. Still, best RPG ever? :P Real fingerbreaking challenge in sea of popamole. And DA2 is closer to God of Silly Overdone Violence than to anything deserving the name RPG, but GoW must be recognized as popamole easy trivial shit compared to DMC series.

I don't need no ME fanboy fukkin' defending me, you piece of shit. I can 'fight' my own 'battles' on the always 'dangerous' internetz.

"Over fifteen thousand posts and each one of them shit."

Just over 14k posts for you and you can join me with that honour. R00fles!

Your review has established that you like shit games. So there's really no point arguing over anything. You simply have poor taste. It would be like talking to a religious person...no fucking point.

Oh yeah tell your customers to fuck off, great business model there. But wait a minute, Bioware is not Apple, so fail.

That would require such a concerted effort to post shit at your level that it's practically impossible to do so.

Also, ragging on Jaesun for trying to suggest you aren't a total fuckup is a bad call.

He's got what he desserved for defending him. Volo started this thread as bait and you all feed his little pen... ego for four pages now. WTF! Speaking of shit I thought that DA2 was declered as such long time ago, it's strange that such failure is 75% of Codex now while real RPGS are hardly discused, it's like reading Biowhore social site. :decline: of :rpgcodex:
