He's right. Look at the movie industry, people yawn and ignore movies that are too similar. Every now and then a really diverse masterpiece comes out of nowhere.
We should be looking for that in gaming. Find different dynamics, change up a genre, have multiple USPs not just "it's a battle royale with different character abilities than that last game".
I think it was pretty polished at launch, Bioware want ME5 to be pushed through now so this was never going to get DLC.
As a game I enjoyed it, but it's not worth the full retail price and it was not a surprise it dropped twice in price in two separate PSN sales before the end of the year.
This didn't happen do no spoilers but I stand by my idea that Rook should have been killed halfway through and your Inquisitor brought in. The team dynamic would shift and some characters would actively dislike the change.
We didn't get much infighting or dark turns etc and Rook was essentially a therapist for some parts of the game. Origins was great, Inquisition was ok (apart from certain parts), and Veilguard is good but lacks enough twists to make it really memorable. People like character development, even if said character becomes dislikeable. We didn't get enough of that imo.

Re: Yoshida: I Played The Last of Us Online and It Was Great
@wiiware
Absolutely! That's what I wanted. The multiplayer experience was great. I don't want more live service games.
Top MP experiences in the last 20 years:
Helldivers, TLOU, Watch Dogs (hide & seek) / AC when they did the same thing.
I don't just want CoD, EAFC and GTA online to be the MP staples. Some added innovation in this space would be great.

@Oram77 Fairly easy to see why, when it had the Chinese population and State backing it.
