SWTOR is the “right kind of bet” for both EA and BioWare, says Muzyka
EA has never said exactly how much it has spent funding BioWare’s Old Republic MMO, but it has admitted to spending more on it than any other game in the publisher’s history. Rumors claim the sum lands anywhere between $100 – $300 million dollars.
However, despite how much is being spent on it, the BioWare doctors view the title’s expense as more of a “bet” than a “risk”.

Interview – BioWare’s Dr Greg on Dragon Age 2 and the triple-A trap
Greg Zeschuk thinks triple-A console development is a “bad idea right now”. He thinks creativity is being forced out of the top end of games creation by financial pressure. He doesn’t want a new console hardware round, because the world’s developers have only just got their “legs” with this one.
He says the right things. Greg Zeschuk is a sound person. He’s also the co-head of BioWare, the world’s greatest RPG studio. We met him at Develop in Brighton today – following his keynote this morning – to talk about the Great Dragon Age 2 Not Being Able to Choose Your Race controversy, the pressures of working on a project like Star Wars: The Old Republic and tons more.
And did you hear that E3 rumour about Ray quitting BioWare?
Interview by Joe Anderson.
