the magic and the IP are gone for Bioware at this point.

aboslutely true, but there have been 58,000 game developer layoffs since 2022, with funding, and a willingness to relocate a few pieces of top talent from the US, I bet you could make one HELL of a studio.

    One hell of a studio that wouldn't be allowed to make ME or DA games. There are tons of those already. No IP means no BioWare.

    Use the name to put a real team with bored industry experts back together. Start fresh or license it from EA. That's free money to EA, they shitcanned the game expecting it to not bring anything in.
