Anthem had a new dungeon added. There's also talk about a 2.0 version that would try and do for Anthem what A Realm Reborn did for Final Fantasy XIV.
When I logged back on a while back, I had to solo the new dungeon (high end gear is much easier to get now) since the only one of the dungeons that anyone runs is the one with the giant bug queen.

Huh. Back in the Milky Way. Shocked am I. [They say early stages in the video descripton]
Anyway, yeah, Dragon Age 4 has been in the works even longer (planning was going on back in 2015, though they may have gutted the team for a while to push out Anthem). Maybe a 2022 release

Yeah, def not preordering any of those Bioware future releases and trying to keep expectations loooooow. Admittedly hard to do. I guess a first sign might be how improved they make the ME1-3 Legendary Edition "remaster."
Anyhoo, regarding 2077, at least it is good to hear a lot of folks playing it and putting a lot of hours in despite issues and the general "its a total disaster" conversation that seems to be dominant currently.

the ME remaster'll likely just be fixing any obvious bugs and updating the graphics. which is a shame as ME1's age really shows these days (Andromada would be a good starting place if they wanted to just re-do ME1 with a more modern engine)
Opinions are not facts please don't confuse the two
Yeah on the ME remaster I am also not expecting more than just a graphic update but its a little unclear what all that might mean? Just new textures? New models maybe?
The statement from the devs:
"Our goal was not to remake or reimagine the original games, but to modernize the experience so that fans and new players can experience the original work in its best possible form."
Is just slapping on new textures and maybe models for the main characters "modernize the experience" enough for ME1? The base systems in that game for combat, planet exploration etc. were slightly clunky at release. I replayed it around ME:A release and it was a super drag honestly.

Viewers noted that the opening shot in the teaser shows both the Milky Way and Andromeda galaxies. When asked, a Bioware employee who is "in the know", so to speak, indicated that the presence of both galaxies was intentional. It was also noted by viewers that one of the radio messages is an announcement that "Ark 6 is away." But there are only five known arks (the four in the game, plus the Quarian ark). So, yeah, it looks like the Milky Way will be the main focus of the game that they're working on (unless Liara found a way to reach Andromeda). But it also sounds as if the Andromeda Expedition might play some sort of role, as well.
For what it's worth, given that I enjoyed Andromeda, I hope they don't completely abandon it. But we'll see what they end up doing.

I can't speak for anyone else, but my only "hype" about CP77 was that I saw ONE trailer, thought the world looked pretty cool and interesting and "ohh hey, I guess Keanu Reeves is doing VA now".
Many of the saltiest people regarding this game are those who I have seen/watched been hyped up for yeeeeeeeeeears. Like, Star Wars peeps lining up at the theater and camping for a week before Ep 1 was released hyped. I've learned that that mindset is the quickest way to disappointment.
As a result I guess I've been playing with much more of a mindset of "let's see what all this is about" and therefore I get "pleasant" surprises when I see some easter eggs here and there, or discover a cool new trick/feature. Whereas the people who've been on the hype train for the better part of the last few years, and have seen what was originally planned are playing more and seeing "ohh they took that out, and that. . . . and that thing. . . and feth, even that?!?" and I get that that's not a happy place to be in a hobby that ought to be distracting us from the stresses of our daily woes.
Agreed. I try to avoid hyping myself because invariably those who hype themselves up the most are dissappointed. Hell I kinda suspected cyberpunk would have some people dissappointed simply because as a differant genre it'd be well.. differant

Cybypunk 2077 did have an excellent marketing machine and yes those who did become excited about it are disapointed
Many game reviewers also gave it 10/10 and 100 % despite not being allowed to use their own footage or even play it on any form on console and who must have been aware of at least some of the issues.
The lies about the state of the game on PS4 are also part of the reason for the lawsuits.
I would agree that they seem to have tried to do so very much and only achieved some of it but alot of people did trust them and hence are a little dispoainted.
People are enjoying it though and that at least is something in these dark days.

Ah. I never had any crashes at all.
Most common problem I encountered was sometimes vehicles wouldn't move. Which was annoying, but getting in another one usually fixed it. But that doesn't seem to be on the list at all.

So apparently someone has Hacked CDPR and stolen their data and is using ransomware on them
Cyberpunk was/is a major F%&k up but I hope they catch and punish these criminals - theft is theft and should be treated as such.

Following the hack and the recent trend of delays in the industry:
Patch 1.2 update from the Steam page wrote:While we dearly wanted to deliver Patch 1.2 for Cyberpunk 2077 in the timespan we detailed previously, the recent cyber attack on the studio’s IT infrastructure and extensive scope of the update mean this unfortunately will not happen — we’ll need some additional time.
Our goal for Patch 1.2 goes beyond any of our previous updates. We’ve been working on numerous overall quality improvements and fixes, and we still have work to do to make sure that’s what you get. With that in mind, we’re now aiming for release in the second half of March.
It’s not the news we enjoy sharing, but we want to make sure we launch this update properly. Stay tuned for more information as the time draws closer. Thank you for your continued patience and support.
So about a month for the next patch (give or take a week)

And the 1.2 patch is here. 29 GB for me on steam. Lots of fixes... most of which didn't cause problem for me.
Big ones are cars getting stuck, and a way to 'rock' the car unstuck.
Control sensitivity for cars.
Increase spawning radius for cops.
And randomly gorilla arm damage is increased by 20%, which seems weird since I was casually walking through enemies with them before.
Long lists of other changes, but nothing that really changes the game. Just fixes that they probably should have been doing over time since release, rather than leaving it all unpatched for 4 months.
Waiting for my shill money from Spiral Arm Studios
Control sensitivity for cars is a big one. I pretty much gave up driving entirely. Just walk or fast travel.
Self-proclaimed evil Cat-person. Dues Ex Felines
Cato Sicarius, after force feeding Captain Ventris a copy of the Codex Astartes for having the audacity to play Deathwatch, chokes to death on his own D-baggery after finding Calgar assembling his new Eldar army.
Feel the same, going to sit this all out for some time yet, though drive controls being tweaked is good, but too late, as this was something they had promised would be in on launch to the people who previewed the game last year.
Definitely. Without content expansions or new game+ or something, it doesn't have enough to come back to. The side content and a few specific missions are good, but not that good.
