Can someone explain to me - the rationality behind deserving something for free that others are paying for?

This is part of what some are spending an extra $20 dollars for with the N7 edition. Why should those, who chose to buy the regular version, be entitled to it at no extra cost?

The thing is, I agree with TotalBiscuit - this is absolute bull****. But I'm still buying the game, my love for the Mass Effect series outweighs my anger over this bull****.

Fight the power, and all that.

Mob mentality and easily persuaded people led by the hand of someone else. Entitlement and knee jerk reactions.

It's a bit cliche, but what else do you want me to call it? BioWare was much more sincere, genuine, and could be considered the best developer to exist at the time BEFORE they were bought by EA. I know a lot of you guys love BioWare's games, and I understand that, but you shouldn't support them for that sole reason. Try to look at the ethics behind it, people.

Its the best thing to do if you dont aprove of their methods im affraid. Alas there are a legion of fans out there with surplus amounts of cash who can be ripped off a length and not feel it but its still important to vote with your wallet. You can try to talk sense to the guys and gals at bioware but they wont appreciate anything that isnt glowing approval wich is why you're seeing a surplus amount of trolling going on i feel. I didnt buy dragon age 2 because I didnt like the look of it and ive not had any of the mass effects simply becuse they didnt grab me like they did other folk, you'll find a new franchise to follow and the folk who can stand being ripped off will stay and enjoy what they get here.

Shame really, i get the feeling you'd need special sunglasses to see the faces of the bioware staff these days.

Renting so no money for Bioware/EA from me. Tough choice if I were a PC gamer though...

I'm gonna wait until they fix animations, add high-res textures and until all the dozens of dismembered content is put under one package with full game under standard price for such a game.

Enough of EA/Bioware thieveing already.

Congrats - no one cares about your one-man boycott.

I agree, I just wouldn't buy it, but I won't hold it against people who want to do so.

It's because the Protheans are a huge part of the Mass Effect lore and depriving a Prothean character from those who don't fork up an extra $10 is a dick move by EA and Bioware.

Because when you buy a game, you should be getting the whole game and not the cut version ?

The stupidity of fanboys will never cease to amaze me...

Some years ago, such practice would have been unthinkable. But the sheeps which accept and further shady business practice makes it profitable, and we'll get more and more of these "game in several pieces you have to pay for" thanks to them...

Why not?  As long as they continue to produce quality games, I will continue to buy those games.  I have yet to be disappointed (Yes, I liked DA2).  And since I do not mind paying for content that would normally not be included, I will continue to buy DLC.  If there is DLC I do not want (and there has been) I will not purchase it.  That simple.  This 'ethics' stuff people keep talking about is just nonsense.

exactly, this is going to backfire on Bioware, so many will pirate the game now...

Yeah yanking a chunk the story out with dlc is pathetic

I agree with you wholeheartedly, but the blind Biodrones on this forum have lost what BioWare was about and now simply follow a brand name. They're the same kind of people who have no concern about the integrity of the gaming industry, and only care about giving their money to play games.

Ultimately, whatever "Bioware was about" is not really relevant. I've been buying Bioware games since KotOR because they're entertaining. If ME3 ceases to fill that function, I'll stop buying Bioware games.

If you hate what Bioware has done, don't boycott the company. Don't even boycott EA. Boycott ****ing capitalism, the reason **** like this happens in the first place.

Of course, that'd be too hard wouldn't it? You'd have to throw away your iWhatever, put a brick through your television, and actually get off your ass and do something instead of post on a forum complaining about the so-called immoral actions of a company you enjoyed to this point.

Otherwise, in the immortal words of any given Planescape character of seedy reputation, pike off. Don't like it? Don't buy the game. But you're wasting your breath posting this on the forums for the hundredth time.

If you shell out for a special edition, you understandably get a bonus. In this case, it's a bonus that other people might want, so they offer it for less than the difference between the standard edition and the special edition.

Again, not seeing a problem here.

Wait, you are in support of this practice?, I guess I'm a little taken back after your protest over the whole trial thing.

[wolfsite]

Meh, if they kept it exclusive to the CE people would have complained anyways.

So they do something nice and make it available to people who didn't buy the CE so they don't have to go looking for an extra CE floating around and spend more money than they have to so they can experience optional content...... and people still complain.


And if Bioware gave these people a chest full of gold.... they would complain that is was heavy.
