I would wait and see what the fans and if possible my friends thought of any new BW title before buying it purely on faith that it was going to be good. In other words, definitely no more pre-ordering from me at least.

Sure I will buy bioware games again.

However I will not buy any ME3 DLC until the ending is fixed, and in the future I will not pre-order their games. I will wait for reviews.

Why buy more of their stuff if they're just going to blatantly lie to me?


This about sums it up!

If they did nothing about the ending? How many of you can actually say you would never buy another game from them, even if they released a ME4?


Sadly, yes. Because they betrayed our trust and ABOVE ALL THINGS THERE ARE OTHER OPTIONS OF GAME STUDIOS.

Why would I insist in Bioware fearing that they can repeat this ruse, if I have other studios that I can buy games without that fear?

There's no logical reason I would choose to suffer. I'm just moving on.

Oh, I will buy BW games again eventually... but I never will preorder them or buy them on release again... not until some independent media have reviewed it.

Idk. The games i ever bought from BW were NWN, KOTOR and ME series. Everything else doesn't even interest me lol

ME3 not only had a bonerkilling ending, the Prothean DLC fiasco + the ending tells you can buy more DLCs to make your experience better is just a way to milk our wallets. Tbh i wouldn't be surprised if the ending itself was deliberately like it is now, just so we would spend more $$$ for a new ending and/or more DLC so the main game starts to make sense.

By friend's mistake, i received Standard version instead of Collector's edition and after completing the game i don't think I want to buy the From Ashes DLC.

They're still a great company. But in seeing how the ME3 ending was rushed, how things have been cut, how DLC has been withheld from the main game, and how creative decisions have been made based on creating speculation rather than giving any sense of closure or achievement...

I've gone from being a die-hard fan who'll pay a premium, buy all the DLC and buy collector's editions on day one, to a fan who'll probably buy their games eventually if the fan reviews are good enough. The way the games review industry failed to mention the ending's effects on replayability, and their response to the ME3 ending controversy does make me wonder how many opinions and 5 star reviews were just bought.

I was probably not going to buy any Bioware products after ME3 (and its DLC) anyway, so yes.

Well, never say never.

I had high expectations in Mass Effect 3 and 95% of the game was pure fun. If the endings weren't so similar and only bitter, I would have said the game would have been perfect for me. And yes, so I'm very disappointed and lost the motivation to play it, to buy DLC's or maybe buy a future Mass Effect 4

But to say I never will play or buy any other Bioware game... No, I can't say that.
I won't pre-order CE's and rather wait for reviews from other players, before buying it. But when it's worthy I would give it a chance.

I replay games I love for years and hardly buy new ones. I see no need to support BioWare if they refused to do anything. Their claim is "We're listening"

Well if nothing is gone, they can listen as I slam the door on my way out.

Actually, I liked Dragon Age 2. I wish being a Blood Mage actually matter, but it does make the game unplayable. Yes, if this game had this:
1)The game featurer the voice acting of: Keith David, Shohreh Aghdashloo, Courteny Taylor  Kym Lane, Claudia Black, Brandon Kenner, and  Jeniffer Hale.Image IPB
2)Create your personality with different voice and animations for that personality
3) I want to play an adult game. You noticed how they out majority of the language from the game to make it more mainstream.
4)Every relationship does not have to build around you getting romance. I think they did a better job in Mass Effect 3, but the implementation of just pressing "X" to get more dialogue takes away from the game. Seriously, even you do not know about computers, it makes you think you are pullng on string on some toy and hearing it speak. Kudos on other people forming relationships.
5)Romance needs to be done better too. You can't have this "pure" romance relationships in story, where you can commit genocide. You can, but you should mixed in one night stands, cheating, etc...that does not cause you to lose quests and loyalty.
6) Okay, I reallly do not care if it is an open world environment, but I do care about content and quality I want to play a game that is over sixty hours without a dlc. I want most of the missions not to be fetch this. The stuff I fetch should matter. You don't even need to find all the war assets for the Crucible, because it gets built. The war assets that become part of the Crucible mean nothing.
7) I want something we have not seen before in a game when it comes to storytelling.which is made more amazing by new playthroughs. Dragon Age: Origins was like that. Each time you played through it, became even more amazing. I enjoyed that game so much.
8)You put an amazing and unique product out, and it will sell.
9) Do not take away what you already have for character creation either.

If no fix for the ending is released, I wouldnt pre-order any more Bioware games. And I would pay more attention to user reviews than before. Then if both "professional" and user reviewers praise the game then I would buy a game they make.

I personally have multiple copies of almost every bioware game. The most common reason being one for my Xbox and one for my PC(DA, DA2, ME, ME2), and for a rare few, I have an unopened spare, in the event I break my copy of KOTOR or 360 ME, I also have 2 TOR accounts(which are now deactivated.) For ME3 I preordered both a reg and CE, just as I did with DA:O and ME2
Without a doubt I can honestly say if this debacle over the ending isn't resolved, new games from EA/Bioware will never hit my shelves. I've spent a lot of money directly to support this company, Bioware games I've always refused to buy used. Now, I can see myself refusing to buy completely. If you had asked me 5 years ago if I could ever see myself in this situation, I would have laughed and said Bioware wouldn't mess up any game like that. DA2 was a flop for me, but I still bought it, it didn't hold to what I loved about DA:O, but I still supported Bioware, but now they have effectively destroyed my 2 favorite game series. It will take a lot for my loyalty to be returned. Even if they fix the endings or just provide additional endings, I'll be a lot more hesitant to preorder on the spot.
What's the old addage? Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

If they release an ME4 I won't buy it, unless they complete Shepard's story in this game and it is a completely new story of Mass Effect.

BioWare and the Mass Effect devs promised us a satisfying ending. I sympathize that they thought that they had. However, since 97% of their fans on BSN and over 80% of voters outside of BSN disagree, I think that they have failed to keep that promise.
Therefore, they are obligated to deliver upon their promise.

Unless/until they do so, NO. I won't buy any additional content from BioWare--new games or DLC to existing games. Because Mass Effect DLC won't change the depressing conclusion to the series where the galaxy is only little better off than if the Reapers exterminated us. And because past behavior predicts future behavior. There is no reason to believe that they will do better next time. If we continue to support them when they do not support us, it gives them no incentive to make this right.

My only exception would be with SWTOR, where the devs not only listen to us but also ACT to make changes that will provide a satisfying experience for its fans.

Why not?

As star child would say.

Don't see why you would invest time another BW game knowing it could have a similar cheap ending.

Any Bioware game? No.

Games worked on by the guys in charge of this? Yes, i will be wary of them.

I do not invest 7 years and $100s of dollars for "lots of speculation"

I have no interest in further supporting Bioware. With DA2 being a disaster and ME3's ending ruining an entire franchise, I don't see a reason to give them the benefit of the doubt anymore.

Fixing ME3's ending would be a start on getting me back as both a fan and customer, but I'm not holding my breath. As of the day I finished ME3, I pretty much swore off Bioware products.

edit: I also forgot to mention the entire existence of TOR. Talk about pissing on fans of KOTOR, at least ME3 had some kind of ending. TOR just disregards literally everything you did in 1 and 2 and says "this is the way it happened".


Pretty much this.  Also, remember the good old days when KotOR3 wasn't going to be an MMO?

This. I adore Mass Effect. But out of principle, if BW doesn't heed its players' concerns, I'm withdrawing my support for them. And EA.
