Letter for EA concerning Bioware's Mass Effect
I hope this is the right place to post a letter like this, not only is this letter meant for EA but also for all the players who feel disappointed and hopeless because the best gaming franchise ever has just been taken away from us.
Mass Effect has been a game that many of us have enjoyed playing over the years. For many of us Mass Effect isn't just a regular gaming franchise. It's a majestic piece of art, a true masterpiece carefully assembled by hundreds of people. I story that brings happiness and joy, but also tears and lighthearted humor. A universe, story and characters like this can make a video game more than a video game. For me personally, Mass Effect helped me make my way through life, if you look around in the Bioware Discord, you shall see that I'm not the only one.
With the trailer leaked, and details about the game exposed, many people have been shattered by EA's decision to cancel Mass Effect. The trailer looks amazing, the story sounds fantastic, and the enthousiasm of the developers is something that is missing in a lot of games nowadays.
People tend to enjoy games more if they can sense that the developers had a great time making the game, I believe with Bioware's current team we would be seeing that as well.
But, EA's decision has been made. Bioware has been shut down and Mass Effect has officially been cancelled. IF EA cares about its customers, if EA cares about a succesful singleplayer sci-fi RPG game, they should give Bioware another chance, or sell the IP to them.
It's not too late to retract your decisions EA, The developers that you laid off are still looking for work and would probably be eager to jump back into Bioware's 2.0 studio. Show us, the fans, old and new that you care about us too.
The Mass Effect community has set up a petition, we want our voices to be heard. We want to know wether we can set foot in the universe where we live our second life.
Here's a link to the petition, if you're EA, please consider us. If you're another fan reading this, please sign the petition. Show EA that we desperately need another Mass Effect.
