Let’s be real, no one that made any of the games that we love has worked at Bioware for years, best case scenario is they sell the rights off on the cheap to a studio that cares
That's why the reports that Obsidian were working on Fallout again didn't interest me at all until some of the old names were specifically brought on board.
Archetype entertainment are making Exodus which is very Mass effect inspired from some former devs and Casey Hudson is leading Arcanaut Studios which is supposedly still working on the new Fate of the old republic
You probably won't see anything about it for a few years. It was one of those lets announce a game In pre production not even close to even being a game yet trailers.
Baldur's Gate and Knights of the Old Republic can be made by anyone else because they don't own the IP. I don't think the Mass Effect and Dragon Age IPs are worth much: They're kinda generic sci-fi and fantasy settings that could easily be something else. Owlcat is about to release a "spiritual successor" to Mass Effect in the world of The Expanse, for example.
None of these properties have the depth and unique character and charm of something like Fallout.
As for Jade Empire and Anthem, yeah no one is paying good money for those.
