 If the EC is a bust, the likelihood that I'll buy anything from Bioware ever again is equivalent to Bioware's likelihood to change the ending (instead of clarifying)... If you know what I mean ;).

If it looks like an awesome DLC or game, I'll probably buy it. There's no reason to deny myself hours of entertainment because something else didn't turn out exactly as I wanted it.

I'm selling almost all of my mass effect stuff. Because it's just lost that much setimental value. I've decided to move on in life, ME has lost it's balls and so has it lost it's future franchise for me. The game just can't continue past ME3 in my eyes.

As for future bioware products, you can't count command and conquer generals 2, because that's a completely seperate biwoare compare via the EA branch. They just have bioware in thier names. Apart from that, i will be very very skeptical of any future bioware products.

I may not be very interested in future ME products at all, but i will give bioware a poke every now and then and i think it's safe to say that i won't be buying any bioware products brand new. I will be buying them probably a year down the line after their releaswes dates as cheap bargains - that's if they ever catch my interest. But Casey has lost my respect, literally all of it and the bioware writer's team.

Everyone else did a good job.

DLC? Not a hope in hell.

New games? Certainly not first hand.

Instead of writing them off entirely, I'm simply not going to buy a BioWare game until it's been out for a few months, I see what the fans have to say and I know the entire plot from start to finish (which ruins all the surprises, unfortunately) so that I know it'll be worth the money. I don't trust the company anymore, I won't buy their products based only on their now worthless reputation and false promises.

Even if the ec is a total success i know i wont buy any dlc. i doubt i will be buying any future games at all unless they get stellar reviews from fans and critics. fixing the ending will not fix everything else that is wrong with the game.

After Dragon Age 2 and ME3's horrible execution of the endings I'm going to say little to no chance.

DLC maybe, depends what it is really, as for new products I won't pre-order anything but I'll give them a fair shake.

I don't know if the EC will be a bust or not, But I do know that I was disappointed when I learned that the Mass Effect 3 game I just bought yesterday in fact for a bargain price seemed little more like than a place-holder for the install.exe file. It then downloaded, it seems, from the Origin website, and then installed the game after that. I'm glad I got for 148 Danish Crowns (25 US dollars) instead of the usual 348 Danish Crowns. (58 US dollars).

It looks like the DA team is making a great DA3 game, though.

Unless the EC is abso-freaking-lutely amazing, I don't current have any plans to purchase any more Mass Effect universe products.

Based on what Bioware has said about the EC (that, basically, the God Child will not be removed), the EC will in no way come close to being absolutely amazing (unless we get to murder the God Child and then fight Harbinger).

So no matter what, I have no plans to spend any $ on anything Mass Effect.

If the EC is a total bust, it is extremely unlikely that I will buy any DLC for ME3. I won't outright say no... but it would have to be an absolutely phenomenal DLC to get me to even consider it; anything less, like new weapons or paid MP content, will be an automatic pass. Further, I'll be hesitant to purchase any other titles from BioWare in the future, and I definitely will not be pre-ordering any - I can't stand EA's business and advertising practices, and outright cannot believe a word they say after everything that's happened here, and further, most so-called "professional" reviewers sound like they give paid endorsements rather than honest reviews anymore - I'll wait until I know what real people think before I even consider considering any future titles.

If the EC's a flop, BioWare may still be able to coax some money out of me... but they would have to go to far greater lengths, and would receive considerably less in return for their efforts, than they would if the EC proves to be a success. After all, I used to be pretty much willing to just throw money at them, back before ME3 happened...

There's no way the EC is going to fix the problems I have with the game, they'll need to fix much more than the ending before I consider buying *any* Bioware / EA DLC or even their games new.

ME3 was NOT the straw that broke the camel's back for me, before ME3 I was a solid bet for a pre-order CE, I was a bit disappointed with DA2 but not to the extent that my loyalty was affected.
ME3 completely destroyed my trust in BW as a developer and showed that they were prepared to nullify story arcs that THEY created in the name of bigger profits and at the expense of players (customers) who had invested much time and money on their products. So far they've lost the following -

MMOs are not my thing but I had intended buying SWTOR to give it a go... that will not be happening.

I have refrained from buying any BF3 DLC for my boyfriend.

Instead of buying KoA I bought Dragon's Dogma.

I intend that any future BW/EA products will be bought used.


Cannot argue one bit with any of this. I did get KoA though, but that was purchased a month before ME3 came out. It's a good game that sadly requires Origin to play. Image IPB

As for games...I'm currently playing through my backlog of old games. Far Cry is quite a bit of fun. I would definitely love to play Dragon's Dogma...on my pc.

I also will no longer be pre-ordering (if I purchase at all) bw/ea games and I certainly won't take the word from the in-pocket reviewers like IGN.

If EC fails to fix the endings...well then Bioware has the right to their artistic integrity and I have the right to now give them my money.

Not likely at all, but at this point I really think BW would have to put some effort into fixing more than the ending.

Depends on EC, if it at least has war assets in action and closure i'll consider ME3 DLC. Of course the DLC will have to be worth the money I was very disappointed with From The Ashes. The fact that it was day 1 DLC did not bother me but rather the brief vanilla cookie cutter cerberus combat, lackluster environment, and utter lack of content. For 10 dollars I expected more.
