It comes down to what is the true state of the fanbase. Bioware knows the figures of who's buying and playing. If the "angry, complaining fans" are truly a minority then you have nothing to worry about. If they have moved on to other games and just don't care then it falls to the fans that are happy to sustain the base to make it viable. It's not reasonable to ask people that don't like the game to spend more money on it so you can have more of what you enjoy and they don't, support it without them.
In other words this isn't something that will be decided over words it comes down to money, so everyone has to put the money were their mouths are, and we all get to see where the chips fall.

Those fans have a voice too and you should be sensitive to that. It's not as if most of them are trying to get Bioware to close up shop on Mass Effect 3. A lot of angry fans just want Bioware to fix what's wrong with the game, and many are willing to pay for it. I'm willing to pay a full game's worth for a new ending.loungeshep wrote...

Yeah, but they never did this after an horrible ending that left 90% of the players frustrated. That's why this particular message looked so bad: "We made an horrible and rushed ending, we killed your Shepard and screwed up the galaxy. But we still want to sell DLC, so go back to Priority: Cerberus Headquarters and continue 'building this legend'".MerchantGOL wrote...
they repeated the same thing they always said, save your saved data for dlc and future games.
not that big of a deal.

No but the fact that they went to the expense of the EC means that it was a major issue that they felt impacted on the viability off the game. Now everyone gets to see if it did or not.

It's just Capitalism. People who do not like a product will not buy more of the same.

Looks like he was answering someone's question, and did it honestly. Only on BSN would this be a problem.

I don't think it's a problem and it's a basic answer I just wonder what are the implications of the answer, is his response grounded in data or just a common sense reply.

The problem I see isn't in his answer or him personally, but in the idea that Leviathan represents the single player dlc that fans deire most in mass effect 3.sparkyo42 wrote...

No, you got screwed by BioWare from the get go. You just let your hopes carry you further then the rest of us... "angry, complaining fans".
If anything its the fans that walked way and have actually stopped complaining that are going to be the ones pinching BioWare's wallet because they have litterly stopped carrying at all about Mass Effect. At least "us" still care enough to tell BioWare "they're doing it wrong." And if Leviathan sales are slow to non-existant I think our point is kinda proven... "BioWare! You're doing it wrong!"

Like I said Leviathan is the Acid test of the fanbase, that will shed light into where the base stands as it's the first time we have to put down money for something (outside of MP "stuff"). It will tell if it's a minority, or a majority that's become happy or how many have moved on I think.

Don't be silly. In the works doesn't mean the thing will be finished. Projects get killed early in development all the time

Fair enough I overreached on that last thing about someone's lying. In my defense though it's not as if Bioware is known for honesty about Mass Effect 3

Sure and I'd love to see that data.
It's one of the reason's why I wonder about this statement. Is it based in the hard numbers they've gotten back about usage, or is it a more generic statement?

The biggest issue with Leviathan is that it concludes with the implication it will play a significant part in the ending.
Hell, didn't I read that StarChild even says "I welcome their involvement" at the end?
And still nothing.
Its a fairly weightless DLC because of this. A positive refuse really should've been added here. They could've gotten creative with Leviathan and found a way they could've helped win. But they chose not to and they might suffer those consequences.

Well, it would be shocking if a majority hadn't moved on by now. The actual question is how big a minority is left.

I fully understand that, though I think at this stage we have to accept that Bioware will make the product that they choose, if that lines up with the base's desires bonus for them ( in their view). But if not they are still going to do it their way. and we have to accept it.
How that will affect the lifespan of ME3 we will all have to see.

Why not just purchase a hundred or so copies yourself?
