BioWare Wants To Know: Would You Play Dragon Age Tactics?

Over the weekend Dragon Age executive producer Mark Darrah has a question for everyone: If BioWare put out a Dragon Age Tactics game, would we play it?

Would you? I know I would.

Voters were a tad divided, but overall results were in favor of the hypothetical game. When pressed for more information on the type of strategy game he had in mind, Darrah responded, saying, “…a game like like XCOM or Fire Emblem.”

Darrah also continued on to clarify in comments that the game would be a fully developed title–not a minigame.
In the past, the Dragon Age franchise has had a small handful of minigames–Dragon Age Legends playable on the Facebook Platform, and a Flash based 2D episodic game called Dragon Age Journeys. However, these games have not seen nearly the same success as their main titles. One can only wonder how a tactics addition to the series would go over.

The responses received during the poll were exceeding fast, and it appears that the game would sell well if created.

When questioned whether the game would have DA’s trademark romance options available, the producer replied mysteriously with, “Likely.”

While there is no official word whether or not BioWare will get behind the project, or if EA will or will not throw money at it, the future for another DA game is bright on the horizon.
