FORGOTTEN HISTORY: Dragon age | History Defined

Dragon Age veteran says a series comeback would be difficult with EA's "frightening" graveyard of dormant IP: "I suspect that it wouldn't happen"

BioWare legend Mark Darrah isn't hopeful for the RPG series' future

GamesRadar

Dragon Age is "unlikely" to continue at EA, says former lead David Gaider, but if you gave him the keys to the RPG he'd take it somewhere "dark" and "do things that will make people upset"

"We were always one breath away from the project being shelved"

GamesRadar

David Gaider will never play Dragon Age: The Veilguard because he'd be 'wincing' the whole time: 'EA really did a number on them in terms of setting them up to fail'

"I've heard enough about it. I almost feel like I've played it."

EA Kills Hopes for Dragon Age: Origins Remaster — Former BioWare Developer Reveals Behind-the-Scenes Secrets on the Dragon Age and Mass Effect Series

During an interview, former BioWare developer Mark Darrah revealed that EA cancelled plans for a Dragon Age: Origins remaster and Mass Effect: Andromeda DLC, among other insightful behind-the-scenes stories on BioWare.

Windows Central

BioWare apparently wanted to make a Mass Effect-style remaster collection for Dragon Age, but EA's not too keen: "It's strange for a publicly traded company to basically be against free money"

Ex-exec Mark Darrah says there was interest at the studio for a Dragon Age: Legendary Edition

GamesRadar

Dragon Age creator says EA execs thought BioWare fans would eat whatever slop they were given since 'the nerds in the cave would always show up for an RPG, because it was an RPG'

Which worked out very well.

PC Gamer

The BioWare we loved is mostly gone, but '2017 is when EA finished digesting' it, says Dragon Age studio veteran

"EA buys studios, and then consumes them, and they start to lose their culture."

Is this the end of Dragon Age? Veilguard was good, but BioWare needed an all-timer, and I'm nervous about what's next

2009 BioWare isn't walking through that door.

Not even 3 months after releasing Dragon Age: The Veilguard, game director Corinne Busche is leaving BioWare following an 18-year career with EA

"BioWare itself is otherwise unaffected"
