wasn't bg3 pretty universally praised too?

That was developed by Larian, not Bioware.

Yes but Bioware didn't make it

Larian hasn’t broken our hearts, yet. And they’ve made overtures that they will avoid doing so for at least another game or two. But eventually people will retire and then who knows.

I really think it’s going to depend on how big they get. Early BioWare very clearly had everyone committed to building games they were proud of; EA’s management equally clearly are just moving money around for things they don’t care about or believe will negatively impact them personally.

I think that pattern is widespread around the greater tech industry: antitrust enforcement, etc. would be great for having fewer cases where decisions which affect thousands of people are being made by executives who are really detached not just from consequences but simply awareness of what’s going on in each of the different segments of their business.

I'm having a lot of difficulty reading this and I'm not sure if it's because of the style or the terminology.

I don't mean to be patronizing but did the formatting go wrong here?

I don't think so, it's just that bad of a comment.

This is a typical example of what one would call a "gamer".
