lol be serious. it's because the more options you have for character alignment, the more work you have to put into the game. having a spicy blood magic option means thousands of hours of extra coding to have unique dialogue, animations, story alternatives, ect ect and that's just a waste of money for this famously unethical company. they're trying to get ahead of comparisons to baldur gate 3 with it's fleshed out alignment paths. "our hero wouldn't do that" sounds better than "we didn't want to pay devs."

the problem is that goes against the ethos of every BioWare game going back all the way to KOTOR and Jade Empire

like okay fine 'our game our story' whatever

but then they have to admit that they're turning their back on the idea of having player choice that made them famous in the first place

who exactly is left to do any back turning? did you miss when bioware was bought out by EA, or when the original developers left and their main IPs went dormant? did you think the downhill slide stopped and they went back up? are you a time traveler from 2008?
