Bioware is an EA division now and all the people I put stock in have left the company anyway.
And EA, they're kind of my nemesis. I liked their Formula 1 games when they implemented real physics in the early 2000s. After that they went down the console path, which is already limited by controller limitations.
Bioware is still Bioware. Inquisition is probably one of the best games they've ever produced, minus the rather sucky romances. Romances tend to be hit and miss anyway.
Oh, and I'm a console player, I don't buy into the whole PC master race bullshit. Nor do I think designers go down a 'console path'. People bragged about ME1's combat and how much better the RPG elements were. I think ME1 sucked in that department frankly, I'm glad they went towards more action oriented gameplay. The main RPG features of a Bioware game were still as strong as ever, you just didn't have so much of the inventory management bullshit, which quite honestly I've never seen the big fuss over. You can have RPG customisation without the ancient 'inventory' system IMO.
And for that matter, what exactly are these 'controller limitations' you speak of?
