Sometimes you've got to send people a message and not let them walk all over you even if your individual decision doesn't matter in the grand scheme. You've got to fight for what you believe in.

I've made a thread countering this one.

So suck it.

You could have very well countered the thread in this one, but ok. Not sure that I will be going in there, because no sucking will be done by me.

Not even a little sucking?  Just an tiny little suckle?

People seem to put words in OP's mouth.

The point was that if you can, don't buy it so BioWare wouldn't just come out of it all smelling like roses.
If you want them to and see no reason for them not to come out smelling like roses, go buy it.

As simple as that. Ain't nobody saying you must not buy the DLC because we won't buy it.

Nope, I read the topic title:  Take a stand, don't buy Leviathan.

Not a lot of room for misinterpretation there, is there.

Ok so... everyone should just make topics and leave their original posts blank? This isn't the first time that I've seen people disregard original posts so... I just wanna know the proper protocol.

It's like titling an article, and having no story on the article. Lol

The thread is titled Take A Stand, Don't Buy Leviathan. My posts explains that: If you don't like the game, don't support it. I'm interested in all opinions, but lets not get off topic.

If you choose not to read, you're at fault, not me.

This is BSN, the topic title sets the mood for the OP.  Is there something in the OP that goes against what you decided the perfect, non-troll bait title would be?  Tabbed browsing rocks, nope, nothing in the OP that would have changed my initial or subsequent posts.  Maybe in the future, you consider that not everyone believes the same things you do, and post topic titles like you really want people to read your post, instead of my initial response which was:

Hey look, somebody else that wants to tell me how to spend my money, how original, weren't the first wave of these threads locked for being off topic? I know I got banned for posting off topic videos in one of these off topic threads. The logic boggles the mind.

Oh, but when you are writing me checks every week, or paying my bills, you can tell me how to spend my money. Until then, your wallet is over there, lock it all you like, and shut up.

Bioware forums don't have special stipulations, neither do arguements or debates. In a forum, you title your thread, and in your post, you expand on it. It's that simple.

pre ME3 i would have bought anything ME related without hesitation, this is the first time since 2007 im debating whether to purchase anything anymore as i just arent as interested i guess.

That is the thing. For me, ME1 and ME2 were complete games and every DLC was an extra piece of gameplay so I bought them all. But ME3, for me, is an incomplete game with a lot of weak points.

I'm buying it.....I'm not one to judge something before even experiencing it.....seems a bit ignorant

That's the only stand I'm taking....

Supporting a game and series I appreciate

ME3 does enough sucking for everyone.


Good night folks.

You guys aren't alone, even though it might seem like it with all the people in this thread.

So now a game is incomplete just because you don't like it?

And I can definitely respect your stand. I'm not being ignorant, nor am I judging the Leviathan DLC, I am only stating that if you are a genuinely pissed off fan and you want to do something about it, one of the things you can do is not buy the DLC.

Might want to get out your last thoughts. A troll thread might get this one, and the other thread locked. The most creative troll attempt I have ever seen. Props to shepdog

Yes, and as I said, there is nothing in your post that would have changed my initial response.  You see, I don't have to justify my reaction to your topic title, you perfectly supported it in your post.  You want me to join your boycott, and you insist that I do by demanding in your title that I not buy the DLC.  I told you to mind your own business, I'll spend my money how I see fit, until such time that you are making those decisions for me.  I am simply doing what you insisted I do, discussing it.  That you don't like what I have to say is not relevent, other than you do have the right to not like it.  Everything you do from there is up to you, but you won't be changing my mind any time soon.  I liked the game, and I have the points ready when Leviathan is released and I'm going to buy it.  Now, if you want to continue to sulk about that, or act like it's a personal attack on your principles, I can't control that, and frankly, I don't care.  I am in no more position to tell you what to do than you are to tell me.

You will buy it, it´s like the rule or something.

I probably would be tempted out of boredom or another state alike.

It's a good thing I am not rich, so buying other essentials instead of a DLC will be a factor.

Yeah, take a stand if you don't want BioWare to profit.

wiggums91 wrote...
However much you would like to deny it this is THEIR game, and they have the right to do whatever they want with it.

That's funny. Because the money are ours and we can do whatever we want with them too.

wiggums91 wrote...
Be glad they actually bothered to make the extended cut; not many companies would.

That's just business. A lot more people will buy the DLC after the EC than they would have after the vanilla game. The EC was free, but it was kinda like the grounds for the DLCs.

If I buy a book I don't get all pissy and tell them to change the chapter I don't like. I either carry on reading or I don't. It's the author's creation, I can't change that any more than you can. Plus the fact that EC was business doesn't change that it was still a nice thing to do and they didn't have to.

[Kenshen]

I had no plans on buying it or any DLC. While ME3 wasn't the game I was expecting it also wasn't that bad. I just have no interest in playing it anymore. I will save my money for other games coming out latter this year.

No, I do not, and I never stated this. This is why I am opposing your post(s). You don't seem to understand this.

Bad example. See Mass Effect: Deception. 

Wasn't exactly ‘a nicething to do' either.

Actually, this is a good example. You don't tell an author to change a chapter, you either just stop reading, or you don't buy another book from the author. Or maybe you do, but you do so with caution because you know t he author has the tendency to write things that you don't like. This is the point here

Where have I stated I want anyone to change something? I ackowledged ME3 as a BioWare's creation. I never wanted them to change any of it. I was disappointed with the product I bought and that was it.

You seem to paint everyone who doesn't like the game with the same brush. What, maybe I'm an IT believer? Or Hold The Liner?  No, I am just a disappointed customer who won't be buying any more products.

Theoretically, they didn't have to make ME3 either. It's the same principle. They wanted to make more profits on ME3, so they invested in EC. Sure, I am not a complete ignorant; partly the EC was for the fans, but the main reason for it was to sell more of ME3.

Yet it's free enough to play the game for that same amount of time?

Nod and smile, nod and smile and walk slowly backwards out of the room.  If you can't see the implication in your topic title, I did indeed misjudge you.  I gave you far too much credit.

Are we comparing a game you found subpar compared to your expectations to wars and movements that changed the rights of human beings?

Not sure you want to go there.
