Llyranor Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 http://ve3d.ign.com/articles/news/48579/Ma...re-Mythic-Merge Today we have important news to share with the community. EA is restructuring its RPG and MMO games development into a new group that includes both Mythic and BioWare. This newly formed team will be led by Ray Muzyka, co-founder and General Manager of BioWare. With this change, Ray becomes Group General Manager of the new RPG/MMO studio group. BioWare (Approved by Fio, so feel free to use it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WILL THE ALMIGHTY Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Meh, okay then. I don't really care what happens to Bioware anymore. "Alright, I've been thinking. When life gives you lemons, don't make lemonade - make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don't want your damn lemons, what am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life's manager. Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons. Do you know who I am? I'm the man who's gonna burn your house down! With the lemons. I'm going to to get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgoth Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I don't really see the point of this merger, except that Bio Austin and Mythic may co-develop one big MMO together. Rain makes everything better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
213374U Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I think they may have their eyes on WoW... brace for impact. - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrath of Dagon Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 This really makes a lot of sense, given Bio's long history of successful MMO's.

Morgoth Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Now only Obsidian needs to join EA and together with Bio, you could do a nice sandwich rape with Mythic. Rain makes everything better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth InSidious Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Hopefully this will ensure that TOR will be an epic flop. This particularly rapid, unintelligible patter isn't generally heard, and if it is, it doesn't matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maria Caliban Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 I don't really see the point of this merger, except that Bio Austin and Mythic may co-develop one big MMO together. I assume that's it. They'll probably murge into BioWare Mythic and Mythic will handle the MMO while BioWare handles the single player RPGs. "When is this out. I can't wait to play it so I can talk at length about how bad it is." - Gorgon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monte Carlo Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Ha! The original and groundbreaking Warhammer setting meets Bios unique, rich story-telling experience. What could possibly go wrong? Monte Prediction - A massive assault on the MMO market for 2012 with an unholy legion of Mythic and Biowarians. Be afraid. Very afraid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjc Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 (edited) EA might want this BioWare/Mythic hybrid to make something like Mass Effect Online, but BioWare is still producing a highly competitive title for a rival publisher: the Old Republic deal with LucasArts pre-dates their acquisition by EA. I'd be shocked if BioWare had the autonomy to pursue projects with other publishers once their initial commitment to LucasArts is over.
