Even though I was way disappointed with the ending of ME3, I will still keep buying Bioware products. I don't think anybody denies that the rest of the game was fantastic...the ending wouldn't have upset people so much otherwise. I really do hope that they expand on it as they've hinted though, because thinking about it is distracting me irl.
Is ME 3 the last BioWare game you're buying?

If the ending is not fixed to a satisfactory degree, yes.

If they don't, then I highly doubt it. I definitely won't buy day one at least.

Most likely; far too many disappointments and unfulfilled promises from Bioware for me to ignore any longer.

Nope. I've always enjoyed their games. Some more than others. Not going to deprive myself. Will always read reviews first though, as usual. Take things case-by-case.
I'd only stop buying if I thought they were some grossly amoral company that I couldn't sleep knowing I was supporting them. Some may feel they are, I don't. They're just people trying to make a living in the brutal (and lets face it relatively honest, as far as industries go) industry of video games. Meh, there are more important things to boycott.
They just happened to drop the ball on the writing of the ending and some game mechanics. Rest of it was great.

The frustrating ending to the ME series isn't going to jade me entirely when it comes to Bioware. It can't take away the many, many hours of fun I had playing ME, although it did end on a sour note. I'll tell you what though, I won't be pre-ordering DA3 until I find out if it's a another bowl of copy-pasta soup like DA2 was. In fact, I may just put their games into the 'wait until there's a sale' category from here on out, but we'll see.

I don't know. It all depends on what comes next.
I will definitely be much more discriminating in what I purchase from Bioware. Up until ME3, they had my unconditional support. I still support Bioware but it's not unconditional support anymore. Going forward, I see myself being more cautious in what I choose or do not choose to buy.

After reading the Twitter responses the last 3 hours and seeing them literally say "we're not changing anything, we're adding content to clarify"
I give up....never again....I don't care...broken promises

If I have to pay for the ending I should've had in the first place (assuming they even make it), then no. If they do and they make it right, it's likely.
As I've said a couple times before, if they don't play their cards just right, not only will I never buy another BW game, I won't buy another EA game either.

I will spare myself further disappointment by avoiding their games in the future.
Sure, maybe DA3 might eventually turn out to be a good game, but who can guarantee that they won't go mass effect on the DA series in DA 4 or 5?
No thanks...

I'm seeing this "fix" as a measurement for how much they care about not just fan input, but how much they care about their own franchise. If it looks like they listened and covered enough of the basics, then I'll be back on board. If not, then I'll be extremely wary from this point on. Dragon Age III will be carefully, carefully observed before I consider it, and any future Mass Effect games will require even more, since they obliterated the universe I care about.

No.
There was a point, when the wound was still fresh, that i swore revenge! but i seem to have gone trough all the stages of grief:
- They make some of the best games around.
- I enjoyed all but 15 minutes of Mass Effect 3, and won't punish them forever because of 15 minutes. (no matter how important those minutes where)
Major crybaby out.

- Denial (it must be idoctrination! It can't end like this)
- Anger (You honestly thougth this was good ending, Bioware!?)
- Bargaining (I'll pay for the DLC! Just give me a better ending!)
- Depression ( ..they honestly thougth this was a good ending..
)
- Acceptance (Time to move on)

I truly despise depressing endings (in books, films etc and even more so in games)
So yeah, unless they fix this there's no reason not to think they'll do something horrible to the DA franchise or any future franchises as well.
Better to just stay away then.

Bioware is clearly out of touch with their fans. No point in continuing to buy their products if I don't enjoy them.

agree with this i think that a game produuced by another team would be better just those 2( not saying anything else)jvara wrote...
Not sure if last of Biware, probably not, what's sure is that's the last game involving Casey Hudson or Mac Walters I'm EVER buying.

Will only be buying Mass Effect games in the future. Love the universe and invested too much time in the universe to abandon ME.

Doubtful, I'll likely buy more Bioware games. They screwed up the ending of one game. That's hardly 1% of the content Bioware made over the years. I even enjoyed DA2 (granted DA Origins was waay better) but I love all their games. I'll stay loyal.

I don't know, it'll be hard to say no to ME related games. I might wait to read some fan reviews before I buy though.

Posté 23 mars 2012 - 10:28
Maybe. Probably for a long time unless they fix the ending. If the endings aren't fixed I won't be buying anymore Bioware products at least until after I get a good idea of the fan's reactions to it, since professional game reviewers obviously can't be trusted (9.5 IGN...without even a mention that the ending wasn't very good?).

its most likely my last preorder. If they go back to making epic hero games with a feel of hope, then I will want to play those!
if they stick with nihilism and hopelessness themes, ala DA2 and ME3 ending, then I wont be buying or playing those games.
