What was the point of no return for Modern Bioware where the corruption became irreversible? Most say either ME2 or DA2, but I've heard some say it started as far back as Jade Empire.

It was when they were acquired by EA.
BioWare was never that great. They made ONE good franchise that is incredibly overrated, Baldur's Gate.
I feel like she's the kind of person who would give herself a rectal enema with spaghettios
Probably after the first ME. That's when a lot of their old employees started leaving.
I guarantee you there are people working at Bioware who don't even know what Shattered Steel is.

I think there probably used to be a lot of talented people at Bioware, but at some point all of them left. You can look back at all of their games and see what is essentially the same recycled plot being used over and over and over again. To me this sort of implies that some good people helped write some good games, then started leaving, and the hacks they left behind just tried to copy their successes indefinitely.
Right around when DAO just came out, and they weren't advertising the way it should've been. Instead of "going back to our roots" it's "BLOOD GORE AND SEX". Which is fine but it's obvious who they were trying to appeal too.
It is though.
Sage for shitlord feminist thread.
Like most things, 2007 marked the irreparable decline.
