Yes

[TurambarEA]

In a heartbeat. I will always appreciate a dev that takes as much time as is needed so anything that they think is worthwhile isn't cut out. Blizzard are pretty good like that: 'we'll release it when it's ready'.

You know, the ending isnt the only problem with the game, its just the one on everyone's mind. There is so much of the game that smells like a rushed job. Thessia was a single mission, then the planet was considered lost. Like what the heck? there could of been so much more done there. You could of been stuck behind enemy lines, then have to make your way to a safe zone. While you were there you could of seen the plight of the people, but now they are just a number. I didn't feel anything when I heard millions were dying everyday. I Just wasn't invested in the interests of those people.

We also needed to visit Palaven..but that is a different story.

Nah. I love Mass Effect, but 5 years is a long time. I think I would have lost interest. Sure, I would have played it, but the magic would be gone.

[The Protheans]

Why 5 years? do you mean on the next console?

[Reorte]

Yes. I'd rather have it done right than done quickly.

[Well]

For the epic conclusion of what could have been one of the greatest series of all time? Absolutely.

What this guy said.  I also would have loved more hub worlds, better fetch quests, more side missions, more Thessia, and more Earth...

Yup.The game just didn't seem to have much to it outside the combat areas.I know you are rushing to save everyone but I would of prefered to see more hubs and better side quest.Except for Turian/Krogan and Qunarian/Geth it wasn't that fun to me.I was bored a lot.It was just so so besides the 2 mention missions.They were awesome.

I've waited more than five years for one of my favorite book series to continue. So yes. I wouldn't be exactly happy about the waiting, but if the results was worth the wait, I'd be happy.

Having said that, A game like Diablo 3 is different because the story is not important. ME3 continues a story, there a long wait is more problematic. But for me it wouldn't have mattered much.

True, though maybe an extension of half to a year would be good. More than 3 - 4 years would be problematic because it's a trilogy and not a single self-contained story itself.

[Kosmiker]

I would have waited 1-2 years, more than that and the interest would be severely damaged.

Very true. We weren't exposed to the atrocities of the war with the Reapers and made to care on an emotional level. Sure we know what the Protheans went through and I was emotionally struck. Sure, we know in ME2 how humans were harvested and made us felt even more disgusted. But the part where we see the effects of the war in ME3 on all the races and the galaxy first hand was missing. 

I would have loved to see us having to fight our way our of Thessia after Kai Leng won. Passing refugees running to the evac zone, soldiers fighting to buy time, then helping them to get refugees to safety. What about Batarian space? Lots of potential to make us get very emotionally invested in the story were not utilized.

5 years (with some exceptions) is a very long cycle to develop one game. I use that as an extreme to ask players whether they value the game so much to wait that long, or if that is just stretching it too far.

Basically, people on this forum constantly say "with some more time, this could have been better" or "if they had spent 6 more months on this it would have made more sense". I'm trying to see how long a player would actually wait for quality before losing interest.

Try not the think of any of the practical issues that may influence you over those 5 years (new consoles, how to retain saves, etc.) Basically, in 5 years, you will have access to ME3, the console/PC it runs on, with your preferred save. Will you have lost interest by then?

[Nightdragon8]

i agree, the rate they brought this game out reminded me of how fast C&C4 came out after 3.... oh wait... this is EA we are talking about here... *facepalm*

I mean look at Half life 3, or hell even episode 3 (which I think at this point is vaporware)

[ardias89]

For a good ending to the sci-fi of generation yes ofcourse!

[Bourne Endeavor]

Yep. I replay my games constantly and would be content doing so if ME3 took longer to development. I'm still waiting on FFXIII Versus and whenever Square decides to announce a remake of FFVII.

I forgot about the Batarians. They didnt even play a role in the game what so ever. Sure, I know they are meant to be evil, but their Gov is a massive version of North Korea. Its like saying all North Koreans are evil, just because some of the people there are evil. We really should of got one on the squad and tried to rally some Batarian support. There was so much potential wasted, like you said.

[Raizo]

The wait would have been unbearable and I probably would have ended up slitting my wrists in rage over having to wait 5 years for ME3 but I would have preferred it if Bioware took there time with ME3 and did it right instead of rushing it out the gate because they were afraid that the next gen console were just around the corner or because EA needed Bioware to produce ME3 between 2011 and 2012.

[Fen1sa]

I would much rather to wait for not rushed product than one that was great at start and ruined by the end even if it takes years.

[Elite Midget]

Yes.

Diablo III has been in the works for years. I played the sample they threw at us and I want that game.

I want it...

[Kreid]

I would have waited but, that's a very excessive production time, it's not realistic neither fro the publisher or the user (Blizzard and Valve are exceptions to the rule) BUT I think three years is a more than valid middle point.

With roughly a year more of development (i.e. if ME3 was released winter this year) the game would've undoubtedly have been much more polished and probably the final mission wouldn't have been so bare bones.

[Little Mama]

5 years, 6 years or even 10 if i had to - YES, I'd have waited.

[TookYoCookies]

Yes. Hands down, if it meant we would see it in the polish of the game and storyline.

[Element Zero]

Honestly, I would've worried that the franchise was dead. I would've thought that EA/BioWare had lost their damn minds. Five years? Really?

I would've played ME3, certainly, when it finally arrived, but 5 years is an inexcusable gap in a trilogy that presents a single storyline, is based upon save imports, etc... How would imports even work, assuming console players aren't still stuck on these dinosaurs we're now using, at that point?

I would've played it, but it would've been an epic failure on the part of the developers and publisher. I agree that the game we got is unfinished, but 5 years is crazy talk.

I disagree. ME1 and ME2 got enough juice to power my imagination for a long, long time. For me, the franchise is closer to being dead after the rushed ME3 as of now.

[Brian.V3]

Given the issues from animation glitches and face import glitches and other glitches and a possible notion of a rushed ending.

I could have waited an extra year. Dunno about 5 with the whole gaming landscape constantly changing.

[Cobretti ftw]

i waited 10 years for diablo 3... of corse i would've waited
