BioWare is one of the most beloved studios in gaming for their story-driven focus and attention to detail when it comes to the RPG genre. Of the many series under their belt, Mass Effect and Dragon Age are arguably the most popular, but the two adventures may not have gotten off the ground had things gone a bit differently. In fact, we may have Electronic Arts’ notable BioWare acquisition to thank for either franchise being made at all.

This past weekend saw the LGBTQ-themed gaming convention HavenCon take place in Austin, Texas, where attendees were greeted by a few writers that worked on past BioWare projects. Speaking at the event, former Mass Effect lead writer Patrick Weekes, lead editor Karin Weekes, and Dragon Age writer David Gaider disclosed a number of interesting tidbits regarding the BioWare franchises with conversation eventually landing on the topic of Electronic Arts.

Hello,

I’d like to start this week’s blog post by thanking everyone, who shared their feedback in regards to our Alpha 3.1 release. With your help, we released a new client patch by the end of last week, implementing sought-after changes to insurance timers and the expedite fees. More info and the complete patch notes can be found here. Keep sharing your experience from the ‘Verse and let us know what you think in our feedback forum on Spectrum!

In the wake of last month’s backer survey, we also reworked our Roadmap. We condensed all mining-related tasks for 3.2 into one card, moved Salvaging, Refuel & Repair to 3.3, and added the top survey results for the upcoming release. While focusing on quality of life improvements and performance, we will continue to rework our roadmap as a living and breathing representation of the development process. So expect to see even more changes in the coming weeks. And

Quote from Star Citizen News

To the youth of today, Caliban has always been a Vanduul system. They don’t remember it as home to millions of Humans, but only as a place where Vanduul harvesters chew through worlds we were forced to abandon. Still, everyone has heard the stories of the Fall of Caliban in 2884. The frantic planet-wide evacuation. The panic-stricken public making matters only worse. Events that so shocked the Empire, many will always remember where they were when they first heard the news of the system’s loss.

Almost overnight, 500 years of Human history was gone. Now, the lives of those who occupied Crion exist only in historical records and the memories of those few who survived. For many today, this one tragic moment defines the system, yet Caliban is so much more. Its vibrant and tumultuous history dates all the way back to . . . well, we don’t precisely know.
