It wont be my last Bioware game, but it will be my last day one purchase and collectors edition purchase from them unless they fix the ending...
Can you honestly say you would never buy another bioware game?

Yup. I own DA, DA 2, ME1, ME2, and ME3, and that will be the last of my support for Bioware if they don't fix what they broke. Bethseda's the only developer I'll be a loyal fan of unless Bioware gives us a new ending.

No, I'll still buy their games, if they're good. The difference is that if they don't step up and do the right thing by way of ending ME3, I'll be buying the Ultimate Edition for 29.99 instead of pre-ordering the Collector's Edition + Expansion Pack + DLC + Hardcover "Art of" book for a combined total of more than $200.

Yes, I can. 60€ is a lot of money, you know?

If the ending is not fixed, I will become a disenfranchised customer. I will buy only when the game has been out for a year and received good reviews and I like what I see on YouTube.
I will never again pre-order. I was burned twice: DA2 and ME3.
This is me, likely even if the ending is fixed. How it was released in the first place shows serious issues in the company.
Bioware status has gone from 'Favorite' to 'Dubious'. I'll treat them like any other unknown or unproven game developer: never pre-order, only buy months after release and after serious reviewing.
There are too many good games working hard for my time and money. I won't waste it on fiascos like this.

I won't be pre-ordering ever again, no. Mass Effect 3 was excellent (Mordin, Thane, Kai Leng; all excellent), but the core story (find Catalyst, make Catalyst, end on God Child) was bad. An effort to fix the ending would bring me back into the fold and earn my sympathy, but until then: No DLC, no MP, no SP (and I was looking forward to completing more playthroughs
), and certainly no preorders on future titles.
Sorry Bioware, I love you guys, but I'm holding the line on this one.

I doubt the majority of people who claim as such will be honest and go through with such claims.

If I made such a promise I would only fool myself. I would buy any game that reminded me of the ME or DA series.

I could say it while hooked up to a lie detector; then
again, I’m actually not a fan of BioWare in the first place. All of the bioWare games I've bought, other than Mass Effect, were bought during discounts ages after their original release.
I got KOTOR years after it came out and was unimpressed; I
actually preferred KOTOR II.
Jade Empire’s predictable storyline left me cold.
Never Winter Nights and Baldur’s Gate never did anything for
me.
I found SWTOR to be a colossal let down in Beta and after a
7 day trial I still feel like a monthly fee is an outrage for a game that
really feels like a single player experience with multiplayer capabilities
tacked on.
I found the combat in Dragon Age: Origins tedious.
The entirety of DA2 bored me, and once I learned what
happens at the end I just abandoned finishing the game.
Mass Effect was the only series BioWare really hooked me in
with, but even there the only one I really LIKED was the first one. I loved the
characters in the second but little else and the characters were what brought me
back for ME3; then all this happened.
That’s makes for 2 games from the company I’ve liked, and a third game that
(even without the intolerable ending) hasn’t been as grand and epic as I had hoped for.
So, can I honestly say I won’t by anything more from BioWare? Heck yeah, because they’ve only ever
provided me two games I actually enjoyed.

If I buy another BioWare game it will be a used game. I will not purchase DLC or stupid online passes either.I may play their games but they won't see another cent from me.

I'm honest, I can't say right now. I've no idea what their next game might be - ask again once details about it are known.
What I can say, I've absolutely no interest in ME3 DLC. Fix the ending first.

I think it's unfair to dismiss them out of hand - that won't get us anywhere. If we start behaving like they've already decided they aren't going to change the ending, then they probably won't.
If the ending stays then I will be very dubious about buying any bioware games in the future, if they get good, consistent fan reviews then I'll still buy them - a good game is a good game, no matter who made it. If I've learnt anything from our stand against the endings, it's that the "professional" reviewers are hopelessly biased.

It isn't just BW games for me now it will be all titles I just won't be eager to buy a game right at its release. Now I will be waiting to see what kind of reaction a game gets then decide if it is something I want to buy.

I will only purchase bio/ea games from the bargain bin or a used copy. At this point their games are worth the wait.

Posté 20 mars 2012 - 03:44
Yes. The only series I collected from Bioware (since BG anyways) was Dragon Age and Mass Effect. Both of which they have shown that they are incapable of concluding and I have no interest in replay of either of those series. Won't be hard to resist the urge to buy new products as I can't trust anything they may say about them.

What with CnC Generals 2 coming out next year (which is being done by a sub-team at boiware) I have some slim hope that CnC Generals is too awesome to ruin....however in recent light I've been proven wrong once before. however...theres still hope

Between the disappointing DA2 and the uninspiring "endingS" of ME3, the excitement for anything Bioware has gone out the window.

I can honestly say I'll never buy another BW game without knowing exactly what the possible endings are, first - and probably 6 months to a year after release, if at all? So, if I know the ending and it looks like it's worth getting to, I'll wait until you can get the full game + all dlc for $40 or less, instead of pre-ordering the $80 CE + dlc as they're released.

Posté 20 mars 2012 - 03:48
Honestly, BW games have been relegated to bargain bin. $60-$80 may not be much to some people, but I'm ol' school. I like my money, and I expect to get my money's worth. So bargain bin prices will help ease any pain I may have from a game.

I will certainly never preorder anything from Bioware again, nor will I buy on launch again - I'll wait for friends to play it (they have more money than me) and see what they think. I certainly won't trust magazine or internet reviews.
