Benefit of being spoiler friendly: The disappointing parts tend to hurt less. I've been spoiler friendly with the Mass Effect series the entire time it was in development, and I'm happy I was. If you love a game series, keeping up with what is going on with it tends to prepare you for the good and the bad coming up. As a rule of thumb now for me, if there is a game I'm interested in, I'm finding everything I can on it before I decided to spend money on it.

After ME3, player reviews will be less reliable than Critic reviews. You know that all the people who hated ME3 will flock to review sites to bash it simply because it has the Mass Effect label.

I disagree player reviews often give a better judgment on games than official reviewers, players said ME3's ending was awful, they were right, granted some people will bomb the game for the lulz but thats why we read more than one review and in ME3's case everyone bar official reviewers was saying ME3's ending was crap.

Before I even consider buying, Bioware has to answer a question to my satisfaction:
Why should I trust you again?
Does Bioware have to answer that, or can fan reviews do the job?

My trust was shattered when Bioware wrote something I didn't like! lol

Critic reviews are iffy with me. If a company that reviews games, like IGN for example, have ties to a game developing company, they won't outright say that This on That game was bad. The most they will say is that X could have been better, but overall its a fairly decent game.
Player reviews, while sometimes this can be harsh/rude, are more truthful in opinion than a Critics. Proof of that with ME3 is the feedback and repeated topics that get posted on these forums by fans who have played the games and voiced their opinions on it. Heck, just a google search on ME3 reviews will pull hundreds of links to blog, forums, and websites of both people bashing the game for the endings to people who say they loved the games despite, or including the endings.
If I'm gonna put money on a game, I rather search around and read over player reviews first so I can at least get a feel for what I'm getting into before I put money down.

Reviews by fans I trust I would help. But not some random metacritic review.

I think it more like when Bioware promised me a game with a good story and no A, B and C endings, my trust was shattered.

You can't. You can't "trust" any media or fiction developer. The threat of a piece of work not jibing with your tastes or moral perspective will always be there. It's the nature of the beast.

I'm aware. And I might be singing their praises for it ... in two years.
Until then, the White Wolf of Rivia is it.
