You don't like it.  You merely falsely believe you do.  In the near future you will wake up one morning and say outloud to yourself, "What the HELL was I thinking?!" 


I can't tell when you're joking anymore.

Because the entire game is a joke and so it becomes hard to tell joke from reality...except joke and reality have now become one.

Deal with THAT.

Yes,only Bioware game I have not played more than once (Sonic one and the early non-rpg not included). Most of them I played three times or more.

there is just no reason to replay the game because whatever you do there is no epic ending scene that satisfies you like the one in halo 3

Kind of a silly question. The vast majority of players only play a game through once. The little sliver of the player base that the forum visitors represent is rather atypical.


Actually, I am willing to bet that many, if not most, ME players played through the first two games multiple times.  The third just destroyed the series' replayability.  A game that is only worth playing once isn't a game worth $60, or more if you bought the collector's edition.

Interesting philosophical question...what exactly IS the worst ending?  The one where Shep dies?  The other one where he dies?  Or that one where he dies? 

Or perhaps it's the one where everyone on the Normandy is marooned on some planet and all climb out and smile about the fact that your Shep has died?

Don't tell my wife, but I think I just fell in love with you

Played it through three times, on my fourth runthrough (Vanguard this time, have done Soldier, Adept, and Infiltrator).

Going to do two more runthroughs when this one is done (Engineer and Sentinel, obviously). When the EC is released, I'll go through each one of those characters in a new game+, this time on Insanity for a total of 12 playthroughs

You want to slag me for liking the game? Bring it on.

No one likes the game.  And no, enjoying the turret combat is NOT liking the game.  The game isn't merely the turret fights.


And this is why nobody actually pays attention to anything you have to say, you condescending douche.

I like the game. All of it. Stick that in your piehole and smoke it.

Me!
Pre-ordered the CE. Got it on the Friday. Went on it pretty much all weekend and then just forgot it existed.
I've barely touched the dull, uninteresting multiplayer. I think around two matches, one of which had me kicked for no apparent reason by a group of German children.

I`ve played it only once. I got tricked into beliving that the multiplayer bit wasn`t important, so I never got the perfect ending. Not touching this again untill they come out with a patch that removes the forced multiplayer to get enough galactic readyness.

Same for me, played SP once, tried to start a second playtrhough but never completed it, i only reached the last mission.
Everytime i felt closer to the end on the second playthrough i just felt more and more discouraged to continue, i have 6 Shepards started on ME1 and followed on ME2, on ME3 i have only one complete Shep and one sitting there in front of the Galaxy Map waiting for something that will make him avoid screwing the Galaxy he wants to save.

Yup. Finished ME1 three or four times. ME2 only twice.

With ME3 I only played it once and it was one too many. Won't be playing it again.

Its definitely not "Most" unless you think the industry folks have reasons to make their games seem less played than they actually are.  "Many" is a different story, considering that even if less than a 1/3 of the players played multiple times, that would be hundreds of thousands of people.

As far as the cost goes, that really depends on what you are comparing it to.   Even played once, the per hour rate on an RPG is quite good compared to other forms of entertainment.   

There are lots of games I only played once or twice without feeling like I wasted my money.

Played ME1 more times than I can remember. ( But it's got to be around 60 or more. )

Played ME2 about 4 times. ( Mainly to finish off the achievments. The game was painfully inferior to ME1 in my opinion but I did buy all of the DLC for it. )

Played ME3 exactly once. ( Played a bit of multiplayer to see how it was but it got very boring, very fast and I gave up. The entire game is slap-dash, generic, unfinished and woefully inferior to ME2 in every way. The ending was an abortive brain-fart. A total slap in the face brought about by inept, egomania. Have no faith in the EC as it looks like they are totally ignoring what people don't like and are just 'clarifying' what doesn't need clarifying. 99% Certain I will not be buying any future DLC - or indeed any future Bioware product. The ending to ME3 is also the reason I cancelled my ToR subscription, which I would otherwise have kept going even if the game is a bit on the naff side )

This is some what related, it seems those that only did one playthrough of Mass Effect 3 are not alone.  About a month ago a german ME fan forum started a huge survey.  In this survey 17,482 people took part one.  Naturally one of the questions was "how many times did you complete ME 3" and the survey result was 53.4% did only one playthrough.  You can read about it and see more of the survey here :-

I think that number is not far off the industry average, however (I remember this being discussed elsewhere) but sorry cant find industry data just yet - or perhas the number was on players who actually completed a game they purchased - in any case, the number was surprisingly high

Did he do a similar survey for ME2? It's difficult to know how significant 53.4% is without anything to compare it to.

We already know that most players didn't replay ME2, since only about half finished it even once according to Bio's summary of the tracking data. (And yes, Bio thought this was fairly typical) But obviously the sort of people responding to such a poll aren't typical ME players.

It's a shame Bio won't release the full tracking data for both games.

You should have taken his bet first. Then corrected his logic. 

As far as the cost goes, that really depends on what you are comparing it to.   Even played once, the per hour rate on an RPG is quite good compared to other forms of entertainment.


Which is probably why so few people actually care about what DLCs cost. Even at the worse price-per-hour ratio for DLC, it's still better than just about anything else you can do with  your entertainment dollars.

One of the other questions asked in the poll was "which version did you buy" and it came in at 44.4% for the retail collectors edition and 9.8% for the Digital collectors Edition (54.2%).  So I think it is fair to say that that those taking part in the poll were fairly "committed" to the Mass Effect franchise.   I would certainly say those buying the collectors version would be doing so to do more than "one play through".

So I would say that this survey is a more targeted survey towards the actual "fans" rather than the generic results Bioware get from the "feedback" feature of their games.

I've only played ME3 SP once, probably wait until the EC comes out and see what the general opinion is, if it's great, then I'll start an ME2 playthrough, if not, I may leave it for a while.
