Will you ever buy another bioware product if there's no ending DLC?

Then again, I've only pre-ordered a game once and very rarely buy on release day - so I generally have plenty of time to make up my mind.

But there's still some issues to take care of... like getting the money...

It's as though whatever master was at the helm of the story for most of the game was struck with a lightning bolt of brain cancer during the last hour's worth of writing content.
This frightens me. Are other BioWare devs safe from the brain cancer? Can it strike at any time? Can it hit anyone? Are they researching how to protect their people from this? How do I know that the next game I buy will be safe from brain cancer lightning bolts? Now I'm paranoid. And jumpy. And wary. Can't trust the BioWare logo anymore. Can't trust it. Brain cancer writing, could ambush me at any time. Any time.

In all honesty, ME3 left me really confused about how to feel about BioWare. The first 98% of the game feels like it was written by a master storyteller with their finger firmly on the pulse of the fanbase. The last 2% feels like it was written by someone who doesn't even know what "the pulse of the fanbase" is, let alone how to find it and create a product which satisfies it.

That's it ever game I buy from now on is getting a complete physical first.
And stays indoors during thunder storms...

Even if they fix the endings, I'll still never pre-order from them again. Fool me once, shame on... shame on me. Fool me.... aint gonna get fooled again

So true. I loved so much of Mass Effect 3, the vast majority of the game was great. Unfortunately, the 2% that stunk was the most critical part of the whole thing. I will say I'm a little worried with the way Dragon Age 2 and Mass Effect 3 have ended so I likely won't rush to preorder ever BioWare game like I usually do.

What about Command and Conquer?
Anything EA, I will pass on in the future. Madden has pissed me off enough over the years and I always give them second chances, but now, with ME? Crossed the line totally and I'm done. If I want sports, I will stick to 2k Baseketball and for RPG, I'll stick with Bethesda or anything other than fracking EA.

This is the last straw for me. Regardless of the DLC, I have no more faith in BioWare. It's not a matter of "no, I won't buy another BioWare game"...it's a matter of losing that faith. I don't trust them, unconditionally, the way I used to back in 2009 and before.
Pinnacle Station was a foul ball. I won't count it against them, because they didn't make it...but it was released under the guise of it being their own creation. It wasn't terrible, but it took over a year to create after BDtS, and almost 2 years after the game was released?
ME2 was, to me, the first real strike. The story telling and RPG elements took a back seat to mindless, corridor shooting. By no means a bad game, but far from the promise brought forth by the first game.
DA2 was the 2nd strike. It was redundant, annoying...I had no idea what I was doing or why I was doing it for 80% of the game, and had no clear goal. If I wanted that...I wouldn't be playing video games. I actually didn't hate the game, but it was kind of insulting after DAO.
This whole ME3 debacle is strike 3. And not just the ending...large portions of the game made me kinda angry...the first 10 hours or so I was not amused.
Mass Effect 3, if they fix the ending, might even be my GOTY. However...my faith is shattered, and I can no longer believe in BioWare the way I used to.
This is what I was going to type.
