DA2 was awesome, of course I would want to buy Mass Effect 3 after playing it.
Be Honest.

Not me. I thought DA2 was an all right game even with all its issues.

I was fine with DA2 (I didn't preorder it though, and bought it on sale instead after reading extensive peer reviews) it had its issues, but it also matched my expectations for it.
I pre-ordered TOR after participating in couple of Beta weekends. I have no regrets there (canceled my account for a bit, after finishing ME3, but ended up resubscribing, now that my ability to enjoy video games is back). its not perfect, but is a solid game IMO.
Mass Effect 3 though? I won't say that i'll never buy another bioware game again. but I will most certainly never pre-order one. I no longer see myself buying DLC's for ME3 and if I do end up buying DA3, not only will it be on sale, but it will be as ultimate edition on a deep sale if possible.
what ME3 taught me is that "its different teams!" statement is an empty one.

It wasn't just DA2 or ME3 that have taught me to be cautious. It was when EA bought out Bioware. I don't preorder, and I don't pay opening day prices for their games. Just wait a little while and they all go down to $20 which is much safer in the long run.
Also, read both the critic and gamer reviews...the truth of how good the game is lies somewhere in between those two extremes.

I didn't buy DA2. I tried the demo but I didn't like it.

I like DA2, except for the fact that my dialogue choices didn't matter... Figures.

I didn't buy ME3. I got ME1 and ME2 both on sale. I've never been as big a fan of the series, I've only ever played them because it's BioWare. DA2 being a miserable game had nothing to do with my decision. Me potentially not buying DA3 might have something to do with it though.

I played DA2 I know there is flaws in the game. But nevertheless the game was great if not superior to 90% of every other game release the same year.
I played ME3 I know there is flaws but the game was still great and superior to most game I've played. And believe I've played a **** load of game.
So I still didn't said I would never buy from EA or BioWare again. Though It is about 4 year since I stop to buy Activision game. With some luck the next Bungie game will be a good reason to buy from them again. Even if truly I would probably want to give the full $$$ to Bungie and not to Activision.

Da2 wasn't as good as Dao but it wasn't a bad game. A little cheaply made and I had no desire to play it again or purchase it (I borrowed it, big deal I couldn't buy a respec potion). I remember the end was kind of stupid but well, I wasn't extremely emotionally invested in the story.
Pretty much it didn't make me swear off any dragon age or bioware products, but it didn't instill a burning loyalty to the next dragon age either.

I was so disappointed with DA2, I ranted about it to everyone and even unintentionally persuaded my friend(DA:O fan) not to buy it, but my thoughts were "ME is made by a different team, and they haven't steered me wrong yet!" There was a lot of stuff I was disappointed about in ME3 as well but BioWare's made so many games that I love, I feel it's only fair to give their next game a chance. (3 strikes I guess) If it still sucks then I'm done but I doubt they'll miss me. I'm a 27 year old woman who likes games with great story, fleshed out characters, and lots of choices and dialogue. I'm not anyone's target audience. According to my age and gender I should be playing Wii fit or something.

I liked DA2 a lot, more than Origins actually. It clearly needed some polish and more time on the last act, but it was fun to play. I would much rather have a personalized hero with well developed story and voice acting than the generic hero of Origins. I also like the smaller, more personal scale of DA2. The nameless stranger who gets to pick kings, duel tyrants, and topple gods just because of some random bit of background that awes everyone is really tiresome, frankly.
ME3 has that 'hero of prophecy' problem in spades, but at least you are clearly *Shepard* and not the faceless blob that the warden is.
Bioware doesn't make flawless games, but it is nearly the only studio making games of the sort I really like. If CDProjekt proves they can keep making good games after the Witcher series plays out, that will make two studios.
Bioware hasn't made a game I regret buying yet, so I'm certainly going to continue to buy their games.

After Dragon Age II, I said "HURRY UP WITH THE EXPANSION ALREADY."
And then they canceled it. I hope it rains in Canada tomorrow and their socks and shoes are all soaking wet when they come into the office and it takes the entire day for them dry out and the whole building smells like stinky wet feet.

Moved on from Bioware products entirely, probably.
Everyone left here is either satisfied with the current offerings, or is desperately hoping things will change back to what they liked.

Not me, because I loved DA2. I enjoyed it even more than DAO. So there was no reason for me to think I'd have problems with certain parts of ME3, aside from the rumors I didn't listen to.

I liked Dragon Age 2. It's one of the few games that I have on my SSD(Solid State Drive). I even bought two copies, the physical copy and the digital copy. I did the same with Mass Effect 3.

There is a desperate hope that things will improve. I remember KOTOR, BG, and JE with a lot of fond memories. DAO had the feel of those games. ME1 had some of that style, but I could feel that there was a change in the air.
For some that change was welcome (shooter fans, button masher action fans) and others not so much. Bioware built their reputation on a certain style, but EA made them change. Better? Worse? I say worse but time will tell.

I had a lot of fun with Dragon Age II, actually, came out of the game pretty satisfied with the experience. It wasn't DA:O or ME, for sure, but I enjoyed it quite a bit.

i rented DA and DA2. i would never buy a DA game. combat was soooooooo boring. story was ok i guess, i was surprised how much i just liked hangin out with alistair. at first i thought "who is this regular joe?" but he and morigan were the only reason i continued playing the game. i never thought i could find a game that had more boring combat then KOTOR, adn low and behold bioware did it again.
i bought ME1, ME2 and ME3. i bought ME2 becuse i thought it was going to be a continuation of what i had from ME1, which it wasnt at all. ME2 was a mistake purchase. i assumed ME3 would set the story straight. ME3 is ok because combat is awesome, and MP is decent enough for the time being. but it failed in bringing me a game that gave me the same sense as ME1. the only things i like about ME3 are parts that relate to ME1.
i expect ALOT more from ME3 tho.
its a gaurantee for me atleast ill never buy a bioware game untill i rent it first. ME1 is the only bioware game worth owning, in my opinion.

I'll be buying used. Not one cent to Bioware unless they demonstrably lift their game.
