CecilRousso said:They aren´t scared, but they want more sales than what a hardcore RPG can make. I´m pretty sure that a fully PC exclusive hardcore RPG can sell well over 2 million, but they want games that sell 10 million, and the PC alone can´t offer such sales. And because of that, compromises has to be done. And since one the strength with the PC is that is so flexible when it comes to game, it´s the platform that has to make most compromises in multiformat titles.
Again, I really don't understand this mindset. For Mass Effect, sure. It's basically Star Wars without the cheese. But when talking about a game called Dragon Age, you have to realize that a certain segment of gamers won't even take a look at the back of the box. So instead of completely shutting out the segment of gamer who would revel in a hardcore RPG (of which Dragon Age 1 was only shades of) they'd rather try to appease the type of gamer who won't give a crap either way.
It's the same mindset that drove the Marilyn Manson-tainted trailers from the original game, too. And those were hilariously out of touch also.
