So the recent meme had me do some digging. DA:I was budgeted to cost around $150-200 million in production and marketing costs but sold over 12 million units. Now, granted, DA: V has only been out a month in comparison it at the HIGHEST estimate has sold under 800k with the median estimate at about ~600k. All estimates say median $35 million GROSS revenue. Now if we were to even go crazy and say the production/ marketing cost was the same as DA:I, it would take sales to quadruple/quintuple at CURRENT PRICE just to break even. If this game doesn’t kill BioWare then we truly have a captured market being propped up by funny money, this is a Disney Marvels level fuck up.

Another red flag was the game had conspicuously black voice actors.
