    And gaming companies wonder why gamers are so negative. Helped by crappy articles like this. The only thing I saw that I don’t like is the more mass effect control over your squad. However, I love mass effect, so I’m willing to give it a shot.

    A lot of negativity and assumptions about what gamers want from this article when the game isn’t even out yet. From a story and narrative aspect, I’m cautiously optimistic.

    Also “forgot its roots” and “stuck in the past” can’t be used in the same sentence, PC gamer. They literally mean opposite things.

      Not necessarily. In this case, BioWare’s roots are just even further in the past, and there’s a middle part in the past (somewhere between 2005 and 2014) where one could argue BioWare and RPGs in general lost their way. Your mileage may vary, but they’re not opposites here.

        Maybe we need a new idiom for that… What about “stuck in the stems”? It’s after root, but before fruit / flowers / leaves.
