    What's happened with the news updates and the official forums? Has Bioware gone silent or are all the topics stupid and not worth replying to? Anyone know?

    Isn't that a given around here? ;)

    Serious note: I'm with you. There seems to be an eery lack of new imagery lately, at least to me. But then I haven't followed this one as closely as I've followed NWN2.

    I haven't been able to post the Dragon Age news for the recent three weeks and there hadn't been anything post worthy for the week before. However, I'm going to post some soon. Be my guest. ;) (And sorry if you've been expecting something sooner. I might be able to post something tonight. ;) )

    And some of the discussion is actually interesting and maybe even productive. ;)

    I was just curious, and looking at the bioware forums it seems to me that the bioware staff has only been responding to the stupid posts like "When's it coming out" or "Why aren't the forums working" and not to things like "How many hard decisions will be in character development". This may just mean they're getting pissed with all the people asking stupid questions, but it got me wondering.

    If I were their boss, I'd crack the whip and tell them to work on the bloody game instead of wasting hours every day responding to every fanboy's questions. Maybe someone over at BioWare has finally realized that their writers/designers have posted 50x more words on their forums in the years that the game has been in development than the game has words of dialogue... Considering the unbelievable amount of lengthy replies coming from the devs involved in this project I'm really surprised that the flow hasn't been stopped sooner.

    There's some new news now. ;) It's been a month since the last one and I remember gathering as much over a day or three in the past. Maybe, as Tal has observed, they have started working. :p

    This is encouraging news, too. I realize it was kind of veiled, like a casual remark here and there, but from the things duscussed, it seems the game is progressing well. They're looking at system requirements ATM which, if I'm not mistaken, means the game system is more or less set and they're figuring out what is needed to run it. They seem to have already settled on voice acting or no, portraits or no, and the people are referring to features as if they were already set in stone, if not worked out in detail.
