Yep. Releasing DLC without altering the endings is pointless, and a very very dumb move to be honest.
SO BOYCOTT.

I don't really have any interest in playing DLC that takes place before the ending anyway. It'd only depress me more. So no worries there.

Anyone left wanting by these endings should have a relatively easy time passing on non-ending DLC. I can only assume at least one big item is already done, and will drop, soon enough. We can't get mad when it happens. That said, why would we need a few more meaningless choices?
It will be easy enough to purchase all the DLC I want, if and when new endings are made available.

I didn't buy DA2 dlc at all.... because i found the game to be a great disappoint... ME3.. great disappointment as well. I will not be playing DLC unless it corrects that terribly incomplete ending.

Feel free to vote on the Replay Value poll in my sig. Not that BioWare bothers looking at polls but the more data it collects the more ground there is to stand on that ten minutes can, and did, ruin 160+ hours over three total games.

I'm not sure if I'll be exactly boycotting DLC, so much as simply having no motivation to purchase it while the endings are in their current state...

Not buying any DLC. Not buying any product from Bioware and EA.
Also canceled SWTOR subscription.

I'm not going to buy any DLC associated with this game unless they address the ending. We as consumers should take a stand on what we think is deemed as quality product

This is a valid point as well, for many there simply is no impulse to buy DLC given the state of the galaxy at the end of the game. It would be like buying tires for a car you totaled a few weeks/months after having totaled the car.

I'm an adult consumer and a pragmatic one at that. If there is DLC "worth buying" I will buy it. If it's proper ending/post-finale content that takes seriously the fan's concerns and addresses many of the issues the community has brought up, I'm on board. But that also means the voice talent has to come back, it's simply not the same without it. I would feel even more upset if the resolutions to the game just came as "private message" texts or something.
Mid-game content that doesn't alter the ending? Not a chance. Not even if it did all the things I would have wanted to see in the game anyway, like Miranda/Jacob/Jack/Thane/Legion as a squadmate. It's all pointless with the endings as they are.
I bought the N7 striped hoody from the store the other day. I'll still wear it proudly because for 5 years I loved Mass Effect. If nothing changes and it dies, I'll still wear it in remembrance for what it was, not what it is now.
But this potential for an ending is the only thing tying me to Bioware. Once this series is done I'm out. It will take something extraordinary to win my trust again.

They won't lock this topic. Its completely civil, its not violating the rules of the forum and its been going for over a week now.
It is freely expressed opinion, presented in a rational and adult manner. If they were to lock this topic they would send the wrong message entirely.

I have no intention of purchasing additional content for Mass Effect 3 that comes before the ending to the game. I don't want to get attached to anything else only to see it so cruelly torn away with no explanation.

If they fix the ending, where it does matter in the choices you do! then I might buy DLC, but until the RBG magical colors are gone, so am I.

I see no point in purchasing a DLC side mission that in the end means nothing.

Again this is a choice you can make.
I am simply lobbying that we focus on where the problem is...which is our inability to even appreciate the effort of any DLC efforts for this game because of the way they ended it.
I am not sure I would go so far as to completely condemn BioWare and EA in total for the rest of history, but I can't argue that this might have engendered that view point in many fans either.
The DLC plan is largely the post-release monetization plan which sustains EA's profit margin on the intellectual property beyond its shelf date. A choice to not support it does eventually show up in EA's quarterly reports, which then causes their shareholders to start asking hard questions.
And one must keep in mind that we, as customers, are simply the end user, we're not where the money starts, the money starts with the investors, and while we, as end users can question EA and BioWare all day, it amounts to nothing as long as shareholders are willing to trust their money with Electronic Arts.
It is only by causing notable short falls in quarterly projected profits that the share holders will begin go see our view. And then it becomes a completely different situation.

I am boycotting DLC unless they cut off the ending and replace it with something that flows with the universe lore. Honestly, they need to call up Drew and ask him to finish it..

I can't say that I'd offically boycott,
but I can say that the ending gives me zero desire to play any Mass Effect add-on until that thing is fixed.
