Unlike a lot of people here and everywhere else I still believe in Bioware and expect DA:D to be a great game.

I’m willing to have hope. Plus, their recent interview about no longer the heyday of BioWare but vow to go back is assuring. Admit fault and learn from it is a right step. Now they have to prove it.

And no more Frostbite,

I guess now it is time for tech giants like Amazon to decide if they want to join gaming race or not. Sony is probably having emergency meetings again.

I’m looking forward to the next Dragon Age game even though outside of 5+ hours with Origins, I never played them which in a way is a good thing and similar to Halo Infinite for me. Can go in pretty much blind and have no attachment whatsoever to see if I truly end up liking the game.

Four Xbox things? I’d love that, I want all of that to become reality. :slight_smile:

The announcements part.

This is an awesome announcements prediction Deo…don’t play with my heart! :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

If I had to make any bets (I am very bad at this lol) though about Xbox’s presence in the Game Awards I’d replace projects Cobalt and Midnight with Perfect Dark and Tango’s next game. Also I’d really love to see Elden Ring getting an expansion though I have a feeling that just like Sekiro we won’t see it, hopefully I am wrong on this one and we’ll have a big ass expansion in our hands in 4-5 months. :pray:
