Very very doubtful
Would you preorder or buy another product from BioWare?

Why would I? The massacre Bioware did to Mass Effect could easily happen to another game series/trilogy they produce or continue.
I'd rather get Square Enix games, I prefer their pure RPG combat to what Bioware conjured up.
Simply put; no.

Pre-order? No. People should read this:
http://social.biowar...349/29#10107738
In the last 5 years or so, through pre-orders game manufacturers have tried to shift “customers” (individuals who inspect a product in the marketplace and then decide whether or not to purchase it), into “patrons” (individuals who trust the integrity of a company enough to pay a premium price before the delivery of the product believing the item will be something they will approve of sight unseen). The patron/artisan relationship is one of significant trust b/c it ultimately removes the consumer’s main defense (i.e. voting with their wallet).
No matter how this turns out, has Bioware at best turned a bunch of die-hard fans from pre-purchase patrons into wary customers. I’d have to say yes.

Pre-order? Never again.
I'd rather stay cool and be patient. After a few weeks, if the consumer's response are good.. Maybe I'll think about buying it.

If it's looking good, sure.
I didn't like the ending, but by and large ME3 was a great game and Bioware's still been pushing out quality stuff.

Thats the hard part. ME3 was an amazing game! I am glad I did play it! But still sad with the ending!

I would. But the more PR bull**** is released regarding the endings, the less likely it gets for me.

Would I start another adventure with them, knowing that they will craft a great journey, only to throw you into an furnace at the end? Perhaps, if the price is right. And if I liked the certain knowledge that nothing I do counts at the very end, despite all the platitudes.
On current form I'm not paying top dollar for their games, this isn't like supporting a football club.

No more preorders from me. They've lost that trust.
No more purchases from me either, until several months have passed AND user reviews say it's a good game AND the game is on sale.

Of course I will. I loved ME3 and look forward to a new IP. I don't think we need another sequel, though.

Nope. DA2 was bad and ME3 was really bad (endings), but seeing their lies and how they deal with us was worse. I do not trust them anymore.

I wish they'd have made Mass effect 3 as "terrible" as the ending. You people don't deserve it, or the series.

As it stands, no. I have all three games (CE for ME3), all the books(sans deception) and comics, all DLC and a hoody and three shirts. Bioware's made a lot of money out of me. But Mass Effect 3 has seriously damaged my trust in Bioware. I won't be giving them one penny more for anything until something is done about the insulting ME3 endings.

Pre-order: No.
Purchase: I will never trust them to handle a series correctly again; meaning if they make future games that aren't standalone I'll wait till the conclusion of the series to even consider buying.

i try to never preorder anything anyways. regardless of developer. i really hate the buisness practice of preorder bonuses because tis dirty and gross. especially when its exclusive content depending on where you preorder it from.
the only times i ever preorder is from digital services that offer preloading because thats really convenient for me and that gives me an actual reason to preorder it.

^^^^^Now this is an example of a whiner. Something most of us are not.

Pre-order? No way! Buy? Only after many fan/independent reviews and when it's cheap.

I've bought every game BioWare's made since Knights of the Old Republic 1, and I've got to say, my first reaction to ME3's ending was something along the lines of 'Wow. I guess I'm through with Bioware from now on..."
I certainly won't be buying anything set in the ME-verse, not in the current state it's been left in. I don't understand - purely from a buisness point of view - why they'd go with an ending that destroys all the iconic elements of their own setting.

My feelings towards Bioware were mixed at best ever since Dragon Age 2, but this has really sealed the deal for me. My subscription to ToR was already canceled, but now I've committed myself to never buying another Bioware game again. They broke my ban on EA games, but now they have doomed themselves to fall under the same umbrella. While my faith in them has been irreversibly shattered, along with many of my friends and co-workers, I know there are more yet who are still willing to give Bioware a third chance at redemption, though only if they admit their mistakes with ME3.
I'm not holding my breath.

Absolutely not, except for C&C Generals 2 if it turns out good.

In fact I wouldn't pre-order not only from Bioware but for ANYONE ELSE, after this.
Pre-order is cut from my habits from now.

I've been buying or pre-ordering consistently since Baldur's Gate. If I do decide to buy another Bioware game, it will be only *after* considering fan reviews and (most likely) a 50-60% price drop. I am also unlikely to pay for DLC any time soon.
