Seriously, why are people saying they aren't gonna buy the game, because of an optional feature. And I quote
"How you perform in the multiplayer missions has a result on your success in the main storyline as Shepard, but only if you want it to."
See, nothing to worry about. If you don't want to, you don't have to.
Because I hate EA and I hate any companies that bow to their all-mighty decision making. Every penny I've grittingly given to Bioware was just due to my sheer interest in ME. Well, this happens to be the last straw.
I WILL play ME3, but I sure as hell won't be paying any money for it. I have plenty of friends to mooch off of.
Why is an optional feature the final straw? Why can't you just accept it for what it is, maybe even try it? I admit EA is a little controlling, but if your owned by them, you can't make much choise. It could be bad, but it could also be good. It does not take anything away at all from the ME experience, in fact it opens a whole new door. If you don't like the feature, don't use it. It doesn't ruin the game.
I don't give money to people I hate. I hate Bioware and EA, 'nuff said. All this multiplayer addition does is further acknowledge my beliefs. It's funny, there was a point I was actually starting to like Bioware, guess they turned out no different than everyone else.
At least Skyrim didn't cave to multiplayer-****s, yet...
Just wait.
Why is multiplayer evil? And Bioware? Is this all because one game didn't live up to your expectations. I'm sorry, but I don't think you could have done it better. If you think about it, DA2 had some big shoes to fill, its kind of difficult to get it right. Why does this just ruin the game for you? Please back it up with evidence.

6.)I hate games with tacked on multiplayer
7.)I hate when games add multiplayer that is not needed
8.)I hate when game features are added for the sole purpose of attracting the lack-witted market.
9.)I hate when game features are added just to mimic the success of halo, CoD, and GoW.
10.)I hate when multiplayer is added just as an excuse to market a bunch of expansion packs.
11.)I hate when beautiful-established single-player games get tainted with unncecesary multiplayer.
12.)I hate when multiplayer attracts the lowest-common-denominator of gamers.

I could probably keep going, but I'm bored already.
1. I don't blame you there
2. You hate it when people make seemingly good business decisions? You must hate half the companies in america

3. A little controlling, understandable.
4. Again, don't blame you
5. There's no good reason for that. It barely does anything.
6. Its done by a completely different team. It was completely designed, not tacked on
7. Its not needed in any game, but it sure is nice to have. I'd rather have more things to do than less.
8. I don't think anybody following ME is lackwitted. Sure there might be a few, but this is not a big drawing point, its something extra they've added in.
9. This doesn't copy off them very much. Sure enemies come in waves, but thats almost every game in existance. (for example, Galaga. Good times...)
10. There's not much you can do at the end of a trilogy in terms of DLC. I think that the multiplayer is a good way to have it, but I don't think thats the reason its in.
11. If you don't want to play MP, don't. Its not tainted at all.
12. It doesn't. Sure CoD and Halo do that, but ME is a SP game first, as opposed to those games.
13. I don't think thats it. Its a cool idea, and a lot of people have asked for it.
14. Its called not giving away secrets. Its like Chistmas: Do you want to know what your present is 4 months early?
15. I think your a little outnumbered on this one...
16. Everything in ME is unneccessary. You don't have to have amazing anything.
17. Its a company, it has to make a profit. Once again, people have been asking for this.
18. They're not screwing you over at all. They're trying to be nice to you, but you slap them in the face.
19. Its called humanity. Deal with it.
20. Its not distorted at all. MP in this game just adds to the SP.
