BioWare co-founder Greg Zeschuk has said the worst bit of advice he ever received in the industry came when Microsoft convinced the studio to release cult classic RPG Jade Empire at the tail end of the OG Xbox's life cycle.
"Microsoft was like 'no no, you should release it now, right at the end of the cycle, because it's a great time'," Zeschuk tells the My Perfect Console podcast in an interview recalling his time at the storied developer just before he moved on from the industry entirely to pursue a career in craft beer, of all things. "It was the worst advice, absolute moronic advice from them, the stupidest thing ever," he continues, lamenting the fact that they didn't delay it to the start of the Xbox 360 generation.
