But Mass Effect 3 was their last truly great game. Inquisition was very contentious but it did have SOME fans, but their next games were too busy chasing trends instead of sticking to their bread and butter. Each subsequent game doubled and tripled down on the things people didn't care about, while not trying to go back to their roots.
Hopefully the devs can transition into more indy companies, so that they can make the games they want for the niche communities they want to appeal to and not be tied to huge budgets, expecting even larger returns,
Yeah i was thinking the same thinking about the last BioWare game I truly enjoyed and it was mass effect 3. I used to play that game online and loved it so much. That was back in 2012 how many years and they never had a great release or something similar to match the success.

I'd never celebrate people losing their jobs.
