Will anyone pre-order from Bioware again?

Was disappointed in the mediocre plastic case and lack of extras in DA2's 'signature' edition. Seems like they've been infected with the disease that eventually overtakes all developers assimilated by the 'umbrella corp' of gaming.

Yes, but not out of blind faith or anything. So I can get it the day it comes out and then give my two cents on what worked and what didn't. It's so I can enjoy the game for the story, and if I don't enjoy the story that was given I make my own that works on paper.
I love DA2. it's a good game, but it still has flaws. It's moved some things in the right direction, but those things need tweaking. It could've had an epic story if it wasn't rushed for development. The combat is for the most part perfect, save for 2 handed warriors and maybe dagger wielding rogues and that enemies are using the same style of combat as Origins with maybe a 1-2% attack speed increase.
One person had the audacity to say I have low standards in video games because I love DA2 despite me saying it was still flawed. Apparently me liking something he/she didn't means I have no taste in video games. No, it means I can appreciate something without being blind to the pitfalls it suffers from.
Pretty much this...if I like the sounds of a game enough and I feel like there is a reason for pre-ordering (lower price than going to a store, special bonus or I really want to play on the day it is released, etc.) then I will. If I want to wait and read more reviews or get more feedback first or whatever, then I won't. I didn't love DA2 but it wasn't the worst game I've ever played and I'm not going to totally change my normal buying habits because of it. I'm glad I didn't bother with the DLC, but I'd still like to see the end of the Dragon Age story. *shrug*

I admit it, I bought DA2 because of DA:O and I could not wait to play it. As a result, I was in for some disappointment as the majority posts can attest to. The only positive experience I had in spending the 60.00 was that I was able to receive Mass Effect 2 for free which I am playing now. Now that is a sequel done correctly.
Anyway, I will not ever pre-order anything from Bioware again as I would probably get burned by them. They have lost a dedicated customer for Dragon Age.
Yeah, well, I can't say I'll be pre-ordering anything Dragon Age related.
I'll still be pre-ordering ME3 the second that I can, though.

But I'll definitly cancel it if I get reviews/ a demo that suggests that the game could be utter rubbish and don't just stay dumb and faithful like with DA2 and tell myself "hey, its BioWare it will be great". So perhaps Mike Laidlaw is right and I was an idiot for buying DA2.

Until the developers respond to the feedback on DAII through their future content (DLC, expansions, or the next installment), then I'm going to remain skeptical. I've already decided that I will buy Mass Effect 3. I'm less inclined to pre-order it, but their development team seems to be listening to the feedback and trying to make changes for the better (instead of changes simply because certain individuals like something else better, despite such a successful predecessor).

Dragon Age Origins is a master piece and Dragon Age 2 may be disappointing, but because of the Origins, I would be very curious for the next Dragon Age 3. Honestly I would probably pre-order it.

Considering how ME2, DA:O DLC(heck DLC in general) and DA2 turned out? NOPE.

Um, way to get defensive before anyone even disagrees with you.

And if DA3 is announced, I'll pre-order it.
And if KOTOR 3 is announced, I'll pre-order it.
And if Sonic Chronicles 2 is announced, I'll... no I wont but I'll buy it 20 bucks.

Why?
Sorry, but that kind of reasoning always aggravates me to no end. It's a business with a company wanting to sell products and the customers paying for products. No, we as customers should not be happy regardless of quality. And that goes for the whole industry, starting with toilet seats and ending with games.

Yep. Posts like MasterHackes' always remind me of that motivational poster from the old thread
