Specializations Really?
What is wrong with these specializations?

Antivan Crow Mages that use a dagger and orb? We can't get the classic first game orb and sword?

Necromancers with no minions? I only see ghostly projectiles, but necromancers legit existed in the first game, ironically they should be adjacent to blood mages since necromancy uses spirit magic+forcing fade spirits into corpses.

Meteor is not only a spell, but it's not an ultimate? Instead we get a kamehameha beam? What is going on with the game design here? Only 3 active abilities?

I remember a time when games like prototype had 3 separate wheels of abilities, and we could even on consoles juggle a dozen transformations/powers at once, and dreamed of a future when games had more, what the hell happened?

I remember Mass Effect 1 when Bioware wasn't afraid to let you have a dozen powers, and a rich inventory.

Bioware is dead, whatever this husk that remains is...it reminds me of the husks from Barotrauma.

If you liked the 25 year old games just go play those and stop trolling the forums for attention.

Very simplified everything doesn't mean better or more modern. It means just what it says.

I'm sure the people at Bioware are just being considerate and don't want to challenge our tiny brains too much. It's much more important that there are a lot of flashy effects on screen anyway.

There is a reason those games are all getting remade, and new games forgotten.

This new stuff isn't formulated well, and this is from someone who looked forward to the future with glee, and had high hopes all these years. I'm not 'some hater' I'm genuinely upset that there is less complexity in modern games than games from 10, 15, and 20 years ago yes. Because that is REGRESSIVE by nature.

if they dont release modding tools, this game will die very quickly. they will need to rely on the community to mod this game into an enjoyable state, anything less makes this nothing but a cash grab, as its becoming more and more clear this wasn't created to be a video game that people were meant to enjoy.

also the necromancer thing doesnt surprise me. games always snub necromancy. always.

The worst thing is no blood magic, it's literally an iconic part of the series!
