Just how desperate is EA to dig this deep into the bottom of barrel?
Out of all the possible IPs you can remake/reboot/needlessly sequalize, you choose a small experimental parkour game from 2008? It wasn't even that good or commercially successful.
How fucking creatively backrupt can you get that you choose to release a sequel to Mirror's Edge instead of funding a new original idea?
That's the new character design? lol

What about the original ME?

>It wasn't even that good
Maybe if you were shit at it.
That being said:
>obnoxious "run this way" particle effect
>animations are weightless
>faith looks like lara croft
I think I'll wait for /v/'s verdict.
They are testing waters to see if sjw and beta orbiters are really profitable.
If it flops, then they'll blame white straight men for not buying the game.

>I DIDN'T LIKE THIS GAME WHY IS THERE A SEQUEL

But I actually kinda liked it, which is why I hate seeing it being ruined like this
People wanted it and they made it.
That's all there is to it. DICE probably wanted to do it too.

that was almost 10 years ago. that was during a brief time period where EA actually tried a little bit. that was the timeframe between the first mass effect and bad company 2/the introduction of origin. I consider mass effect 2 to be the point where EA quit trying again. It's hard to not resent that series.
I liked the first mass effect, but not even enough to beat it. Solid 7/10 game on a real objective scale with 5 being perfectly average. Definitely the last good bioware game for sure.

DICE have said it wasn't what they originally wanted it to be, and Catalyst supposedly is.
Obviously that's marketing bullshit but it's funny to hear them say they accidentally made a good game by failing to fuck it up.

>desperate
You have no idea how much money they're making every year off sports titles alone, do you?

AYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY WE'VE GONE BACKWARDS
>mirror's edge is released
>wow what a great concept I wish we could get more of this. It didn't do too well though, doesn't seem likely
>mirror's edge 2 announced
>fucking hacks

Nah, going backwards is only available when you preorder.
day one pira-
wait, fuck.
original was awesome, but surely theyll fuck up the new one
I was pretty excited for this game but then I saw the first hour of gameplay
It's literally Ass Creed in first person with shit all over the screen. Fuck I hate this industry

EA had nothing to do with the original ME
It was Microsoft Studios and Bioware (Remember, ME1 was originally an xbox 360 exclusive)
Then EA took over with ME2
>>334959098
it literally looks the first one with better graphics and a skill tree
>>334959098
Sure hope I can turn off the HUD completely, don't even care for the waypoint, just need my red highlighted objects to point me in the right direction and im set

Mirror's Edge fans are some of the most obnoxious hipsters on earth
