Seems like a nice gesture, but haven't they been working on the sequel for a while now? I doubt you can change core features or character rosters now, maybe add to some side quests or Codex pages, but nothing of substance.

Here i'll fix this for you.
[quote]Consider this a conversation between BioWare Marketing, the BioWare Writers, and the BioWare Developers[/quote]
Based upon previous experience, they really don't want to hear what we have to say. Lets pray that that really changes.
[sp]Doubt it/[/sp]
I don't want a big story crafted out of paper mache, I want a nice tight story crafted out of marble. They need to hire better writers and give them time to perfect the story instead of just pumping another game out while pandering to the fans. I couldn't imagine Tolkien doing market research to include more Gandalfs in the LOTR books or to focus more on the obvious sexual tension between Frodo and Sam, because even though these are the things that everyone wants, they compromise a writer's vision considerably and go against the nature of storytelling, which is to surprise and engage the people you're telling the story to.
I know how it's gonna work.
Only those suggestions BioWare will like are going to be considered. That means you can go tell them 1000 times that DA3 needs this and that, but you'll get nothing but shit, because BioWare only likes shit and gays.
My suggestion.
Have obsidian do it.
Firstly how is there a DA3. DA1 had a good ending.
And as far as I know the writing will be shit and the whole game will be filled with softcore porn.
Bioware's last good game was DA1.

Fixed!

Hah, you're silly.
I fucking love the Mass Effect series, but all three of them are firmly within the realm of "Action-RPG" rather than a traditional RPG.
get a new art staff
like, take all of the designers you currently employ and put them in a bin. then get new ones. preferrably ones who don't harbor secret fuck fantasies for ultamecia.
The moment I knew DA2 was going to flop was the moment I saw their art design in the first few screenshots released. A disaster. DAO's art design was perfect.
the fans they will ask in this dialogue will be the ones in their forums, which are the exact people that think da2 is a masterpiece
At this point the only thing that would get me back into Bioware is if they put out something that really blows me away
Hey Bioware, how about starting with more than six maps that get reused for the whole game?
I want the old conversation choices back, not 3 choices on a wheel.
Even if they do listen to the fans, Sturgeon's Law applies here. Most of the suggestions will be shitty, and god help us if they choose them. Listening to the fans too much can be just as disastrous as not listening to them at all...

Series should have ended at Origins
not everything needs a fucking sequel
I hope they actually finish the Warden and Morrigan's arc and not just focus on Hawke who literally did not matter at all.
Bioware isn't really Bioware anymore. Everyone that made the company good left around the middle of mass effect 2. EA corpse company now

You actually couldn't have said it any better.
"bioware opens dia..."
dang for a moment there on the FP homepage i thought shack news fucked up and thought bioware made diablo 3
In all honesty I have no hope. Biowares quality has gone down, A LOT.

I agree, after I played the demo of Dragon Age 2 I lost all respect for them.

Then we will get an improved in all ways DAO, but released in beta stage.
I'm not disagreeing, just adding up some details.
Besides, Obsidian are planning to stop making big games after South Park: The Game.
Stop targeting the CoD audience, simple. All problems stem from that more or less.
Shit writing? Check, story is not as important when targeting those people. Animu-style flashy combat? Check, it's not the type of audience that enjoys tactical combat, to say the least. Sex scenes up the ass even when they don't fit? Check.
