Reborn Outcast Posted August 24, 2004 Posted August 24, 2004 Well, after KOTOR, BioWare is officially pimped out for RPG's, and they're coming out with two new ones sometime in the future and I was wondering if anyone had seen them before. Jade Empire (Sadly, only for XBox.) Dragon Age (Not very far into development, but it was voted best of show for E3 2004.) Edit: Dragon Age will also be shipped with mod tools to let players create custom content.
ET Warrior Posted August 24, 2004 Posted August 24, 2004 BioWare rocked long before KOTOR, Baldurs Gate anyone?
RoxStar Posted August 24, 2004 Posted August 24, 2004 Bioware is the only RPG maker that I can appreciate.
Samuel Dravis Posted August 24, 2004 Posted August 24, 2004 Yes, Bioware is just about my favorite developer right now - I play too much NWN.
Acrylic Posted August 24, 2004 Posted August 24, 2004 Peter Molyneux (sp?) (the guy making Fable), isnt he making Jade Empire?
El Sitherino Posted August 24, 2004 Posted August 24, 2004 OLD. ;_; I was expected new information. *cries himself to death*
-Zack- Posted August 24, 2004 Posted August 24, 2004 Bioware games are truly sweet. Neverwinter Nights was a game that I played for a long time, but I sold it because I hated that they released 2 expansions, which weren't really cheap either :/ But I think KOTOR is their best game! The only two things that may seem disturbing is that they don't really do games for all engines and they always use NWN gameplay style, which is a +/- to some gamers.
Nerd_Annhilator Posted August 24, 2004 Posted August 24, 2004 Bioware rocks for me because they made NWN, probably my favorite game.
legameboy Posted August 24, 2004 Posted August 24, 2004 I can't believe you all forgot classic developers such as Black Isle, Interplay (rest in peace), and Origin (Systems). Shame on you all.
ET Warrior Posted August 24, 2004 Posted August 24, 2004 Originally posted by Acrylic Peter Molyneux (sp?) (the guy making Fable), isnt he making Jade Empire? Nopah, Bioware is in charge of Jade Empire. Molyneux is the head of lionhead studios
MuRaSaMuNe Posted August 24, 2004 Posted August 24, 2004 NWN was a sweet game and I can see Dragon Age doing just as well. Lets hope Obsidian does a good job with NWN 2 Sucks that Jade Empire is XBOX only, I was looking forward to that one

Joe© Posted August 24, 2004 Posted August 24, 2004 I don't have NWN but got a tast at a friends house and have not been able to play KotOR since then, its just.... dull (KotOR R.I.P.)

Nerd_Annhilator Posted August 24, 2004 Posted August 24, 2004 SoU was merely Okay, HotU was the good expansion, SoU didn't have many new things, really.
Troopr-Undr-Fir Posted August 24, 2004 Posted August 24, 2004 I like how they innovate with KOTOR and the new Jade Empire. With the different settings and and stories. But I wish they would do that more than keep on churning out the same old D&D clones year after year. INNOVATION SON!

Kain Posted August 25, 2004 Posted August 25, 2004 Originally posted by ET Warrior BioWare rocked long before KOTOR, Baldurs Gate anyone? Werd. Banging Viconia all the way!! YEA!!...I mean...uh...tee hee...*leaves* Expand your Imagi-Nation
Astrotoy7 Posted August 25, 2004 Posted August 25, 2004 Indeed ! there are only 4 things I would paint myself like Rambo and go to war for : 1. Someone attacked Australia 2. Someone attacked my homeland, Cyprus(.........) 3. Someone needed an army to help capture GW, tar and feather him, and dip him in a vat of boiling dogsh*t 4. Someone attacked Bioware oh, ok 5. Someone attacked square/enix (they better come up with the biz in FF12!) mtfbwya
ET Warrior Posted August 25, 2004 Posted August 25, 2004 Originally posted by Troopr-Undr-Fir But I wish they would do that more than keep on churning out the same old D&D clones year after year. but...Jade Empire isn't even going to be the same style of RPG as KOTOR.....and KOTOR was vastly different from Baldurs Gate series.....I mean, they're a company that makes RPG's, what do you expect? Werd. Banging Viconia all the way!! YEA!!...I mean...uh...tee hee...*leaves* I never followed the romantic sidequest with Viconia, because I was never evil:(, but I did go after Jaheira and Aerie

I wasn't referring to them in that way. I was say ing they were something different. And I liked that. I was talking about their otehr projects, and some very similar ones from other companies. SO MAYBE YOU UNDERSTAND ME NOW?

Oh yes, and Bioware's new stuff sounds interesting, maybe DA will be good...

LightNinja Posted August 26, 2004 Posted August 26, 2004 Originally posted by ET Warrior BioWare rocked long before KOTOR, Baldurs Gate anyone? When i played Baldurs Gate, i knew no one would never do such a really cool game...unfortunatly i bought NWN thinking that it'd be like BG but it really sucked.. (comparing it to BG)

(comparing it to BG) I have to agree with you on that one..... the story and the characters didn't really grab me, unfortunately. Besides, I'd prefer a game with excellent 2d graphics over crappy 3d graphics (imo NWN's graphics weren't on par with other games of that time).
