Not any time soon that's for sure. Been burned by EA one too many times to buy any of their stuff first day... I will probably get it later depending on the fan reactions.

There probably is positive news though. Unlike the main ME3 game, BioWare probably did get the time they needed to actually FINISH their product this time so I'm expecting this DLC to at least provide some quality story aspects and not simply more mindless shooting...

So you say - I'm not arguing about whether you think you are or not, I'm pointing out most people in your situation would be wasting their time by spending it talking about stuff they're not interested in. Hence where the hypocrite comment came from.

If you genuinely, uh, enjoy talking about stuff you can't be bothered with then... well, more power to you, but you can't blame someone for assuming that would count as a waste of time in most people's books.

Then you and I clearly have different definition for what is a 'waste of time'.

Feel free to explain to me what you define to be a waste of time, since I don't find answering a question a waste of my time, and I don't see why 'most people' would do it either.

Again, true and irrelevant. My point was that the people who say this kind of thing as reasoning aren't the ones who are being challenged on their choice, ergo your choice as to whether to buy isn't the reason for the hypocrite comment.

Bit confusing since you basically said that this was the case in your previous post...

Anyway, the poster of the hypocrite comment possibly assumed that I won't be bothering with the DLC, since I probably dislike the game and am wasting my time posting in its forum, when this is not the case at all.

How is answering "No" to a question a waste of time? And how do you get the "in most people's books" here? You shouldn't post something you have no clue off.

It'll likely be a solid DLC piece, but I'll be checking metacritic first before getting my wallet involved. It's nothing against ME, I've just got too much on the backlog at the moment.

Clearly.

Look, its not a complex issue. You're claiming you can't be bothered to get it as its a waste of time. Logic would assume that if you're concerned about wasting time you wouldn't spend it discussing why you consider it to be a waste of time, and it is that assumption the poster originally made. It is a fair assumption - I wouldn't normally spend time discussing why I hate celebrity magazines and tabloids for the same reason.

Whether you actually think you're wasting time or not is not really relevant to the point at hand - that you weren't being called a hypocrite for deciding against buying the DLC. That's ultimately what I was pointing out. I'll leave it at that.

Bit confusing since you basically said that this was the case in your previous post...

I think you've misunderstood - the point was that people who decide for or against buying it for solid reasoning are not getting flak for their choice, so the assumption that you were only being called a hypocrite because you won't be buying it doesn't have a basis.

Your claim it would be a waste of time implies you have no interest in ME3 DLC in general (since you can't know whether this specific one is a waste of time as you haven't played it) and hence posting about it seemed to be an example of the very thing you were avoiding it for.

Ditto.

If you had a clue about what you're talking about you would know the fact that 'No' had nothing to do with it. If you want to enter into a discussion about this, at least make an effort to read the posts.

No, he posted "No, it's a waste of time" to him. Yes, he could have elaborated why it is, but posting that doesn't mean that he is wasting time here. If I post something negative, like "ME3 is a crap game because..." does that mean that I'm wasting my time bothering to post something like that? No, it isn't.

And about hypocrisy, you are judging him by what you "assume", but you have no clue if it's true or not. I dislike ME3 for several reason, and I'm not interested in the DLC one bit, and yet there are things I like in the game, and that is one reason I post here myself.

Of course not. The point wasn't that he was posting something negative, the point was that he was indicating he considered the whole thing a waste of time - his own words, and his apparent reason for avoiding it in the first place - but then bothered posting about it, doing the very thing he'd indicated he was going to avoid. That's how it appeared to me and that's how it presumably appeared to the poster who responded to him, and likely where the comment came from.

People who elaborate why they dislike something or simply answer a yes/no question are obviously not wasting time, but people who claim that they do not wish to waste time on something don't normally then spend time discussing why - unless they're being hypocritcal.

And about hypocrisy, you are judging him by what you "assume", <snip>

No, I'm not. I'm offering an explanation for the post he got. It doesn't matter to me whether he buys the DLC or not, or what explanation he gives, if any at all - all I was doing was trying to clear up a misunderstanding.

Buying it....at launch

[davepissedatending]

Day 1 purchase for me it had me on the ( you've come to far !!!!!) lol cart wait more mass effect is allways a goodthing

[Harbinger of Hope]

I might get it if I get some extra cash. But I definietly won't be getting the weapons pack.

[toddx77]

I'll buy it. I have always wanted to know more about the reapers like where they come from and what not. I don't really count the explanation we got in mass effect 3.

[Someone With Mass]

Probably.

[MrJames079]

The dlc plus firefight is only £9 all together, so yeah i'll buy it.

[Grubas]

We have a price for the DLC already?

[someone else]

BW does know how to do great DLC and major missions - BDtS, LotSB, Overlord, Tuchanka, Rannoch - [*edits out 20,000 word anti-ending hate rant*] so, irrelevance to the ending notwithstanding I will be buying it -

I'm really on the fence about this myself. I voted yes because I more than likely will. I think they did great things with the EC but it really did feel like more of a slap in the face than anything else. I'm a bit upset that Galactic readiness didn't come into play the way it should have. Tell the catalyst to go screw and then EMS determines victory or defeat. Pick destroy and EMS decides whether the geth and EDI die or not.

As I said I'm on the fence. Knowing I can never get the outcome I want from a series that was all about choice really sucks but I'm having serious ME SP withdrawals at the moment. So again, I will more than likely buy it.

[Lakeshow1986]

If future DLC also impacts other parts of the game I'll probably wait until they're all out so I can play them all at once.

I think that was one of the first things they mentioned.

I'd be more interested in a release date...

[Raizo]

I have not decided yet. Visually it looks interesting and I like the basic concept but the gameplay trailer on Gamespot seems to suggest that the gameplay will be just as dull as it is in all those N7 missions that I hate from ME3. There's also the issue with the fact that I don't like ME3 and I really don't see the point paying even more money on an optional extra for a sub-standard game that has brought me nothing anger and disappointment since it was released since it will not change any of the things that has made ME3 a disappointing game for me.

Having said that I do have quite a few PSN and Xbox live points in my respective accounts and there doesn't seem to be anything worth buying any time soon, I'll probably buy Leviathan on impulse when it comes out just because I am a ME fan and years and year of playing rpg's has made me something of a completionist.

[RenegadeSpectre]

I will buy it on launch.

[idunhavaname]

I might buy it. Not a big fan of this whole thing that can kill reapers.

[Burningwolf]

Not at launch.
I still got to buy another copy.(mine is russian import,and I only have english support for the base game.Waiting on the price for the game to drop before I rebuy it.)
