Jade Empire.
All these games where pre-EA, and honestly are the titles that made their name on the industry, so my original question still stands... What "good decisions did BioWare make the last decade?"

If they had of just compared MEA to ME1, and went for similar scope, I think the game would have been much better, but instead they tried to do ME3 scope of people and places forgetting that ME3 had ME1 and 2 to set the stage.
Unfortunately, only at the end does ME:A hints the players that there is something waaay bigger going on in the world and up till then, the game has already lost the player. On the other hand, the same thing could be said about ME1, where the player only at the end learns about the Reapers and the severity of the problem. And that's my issue, I think... In ME:A, you never feel on the "backfoot". You don't come up against ANYTHING "out of your league". Everything hostile you meet, you blast it down. Gives you the feeling that "hey people, we're the new bosses of this galaxy".
And yes, I too feel that the characters should be treated as a new cast that you have to "like" from scratch, like you did with the crew on ME1 but c'mon... ME1 not only made you like EVERY character of the crew, it forced you to sacrifice one of them...!! On ME:A, half the game you spend trying to prove to Cora that it wasn't a bad call for Alex to chose you as Pathfinder and not her and try to fend off Liam's sexual urges... Like, c'mon....

Maybe I am a bit harsh on EA sometimes, I don't know, but I guess we'll never truly know how they manage a company or how that company tries to build their games.
At the moment, I'm giving EA the "Ubisoft treatment". Not buying ANYTHING bearing the "EA" logo "day one" until I have a better opinion on the product. ^_^
