🔥 THE DRAGON AGE FRANCHISE: IS BIOWARE SILENTLY KILLING ITS MOST BELOVED RPG SERIES? 🔥

December 4th is supposed to be a day of celebration for fans of BioWare's iconic fantasy RPG series, Dragon Age. But this year, the studio behind the games was DEAFENINGLY SILENT. Not a peep, not a tweet, not even a faint whisper of acknowledgment. Are you kidding me right now? The franchise that once won "Best Game" at the Game Awards was left to gather dust, like a forgotten relic in a corner of the gaming universe.

What's even more shocking is that BioWare's social media accounts have been radio silent on all things Dragon Age since August 28, when they reposted an ad for The Veilguard on the EA Play subscription service. The official blog's last post was on November 7, celebrating Mass Effect's equivalent "holiday," N7 Day, with a small update on the upcoming fifth game and the Amazon television series. But crickets when it comes to Dragon Age.

🚨 THE RISE AND FALL OF A BELOVED FRANCHISE 🚨

So, what's going on here? Has BioWare become a one-game studio, with all its attention focused on Mass Effect? The answer, unfortunately, is YES. After massive layoffs in January, the studio admitted that it had become a one-trick pony, with no fifth Dragon Age game in the works. But that's not the only reason for the silence. It seems that BioWare has been treating the Dragon Age team like second-class citizens, and the developers have been candid about the unfair treatment they received from the broader company.

The Veilguard's messy production is a testament to this. The game was rebooted from a live service nobody wanted into a single-player RPG that, miraculously, came out feeling like the character-driven epics BioWare is associated with. But despite this, EA downsized BioWare and focused the company exclusively on Mass Effect, implying that The Veilguard may have reached a broader audience if it had stayed a live service game. ARE YOU KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW? 🔥

👀 THE FANS DESERVE BETTER 👀

Perhaps it's for the best that BioWare didn't acknowledge Dragon Age this year. If the company had even made a tweet or blog post expressing its love for the world of Thedas and pride in having brought it to life, the messaging would have come across as tone-deaf after the hell its team reportedly went through. At least this way, the fans and creatives who made these games get the day to themselves, without it being co-opted by a studio and publisher that treated them like dirt.

The fans deserve better. They deserve a studio that will champion their favorite franchise, not ignore it like a red-headed stepchild. They deserve a publisher that will give them the games they want, not try to shove a live service down their throats. And they deserve a developer that will stand up for its team, not throw them under the bus like a sacrificial lamb.
