BioWare Defends Mass Effect 3 Launch-Day DLC

[a ginger491]

Honestly I think this is not something to get that worked up about. At least it's not like how it was with BF3, where if you had the gall to buy used, borrow the game from a friend, or heaven forbid rent the game(I know renting games is all but impossible now but I'm just saying) you needed to pay an extra ten dollars to play what most people care about in battlefield, which is the multiplayer. Then again EA probably lost quite a few on the fence players who didn't want to pay ten dollars to play a game they borrowed from a friend.

Having owned BG 1 and 2 since the days the came out I cannot understand this almost mythic quality people give them.

Yes they are above good but really they are not this pinnacle of RPG that people try to make them out to be, and frankly whenever I get people to replay the games they always come back and tell me they arent as good as they remember.

i bought them from gog.com. there not as great as some people make them out to be but they still have a different air to them that the new games don't have

It is called passion.

you know what game i still love even after 7 replays? Kotor 1.

in fact i just bought a new copy because my original copy was staring to freeze up in my in the middle of saving... hey it's still a great game, and i find some new tidbit about the lore when ever i replay it....

Funny thing is you could rent it from a red box, but what was the point? you onlly had it for a night and you were locked out of multi-player anyway!

Yes because getting rip of trolls is such a bad thing /sarcasm.

The problem is they're not using it to bust the trolls. They seem to be very much still present and accounted for.

i just wish all the people who were angry at this would vote with their wallet. not much chance though

I think that may have changed with the leak of the endings and the white hot rage it has ignited.

we can hope, voting with the wallet is the only way to make things chnage. it'd be great if people stood up for what they were vexed by, rather than rant on a forum then buy the game anyway

I just avoid all this by waiting till I can get it secondhand. That way I don't feel bad if I decide I then want the DLC. Or I'm lucky enough (ala ME2) to get a copy that has all the DLC in it already. I very rarely buy new games (only a couple times a year - Heavy Rain was one. Batman was another.

So, Bioware it's your move.

"The Prothean is optional content that is certainly designed to appeal to long-time fans, which is why he is part of the CE offering (the version many fans would be likely to purchase). Mass Effect 3 is a complete - and a huge game - right out of the box."

If it designed to appeal to long- time fans, why didn't you put it in the god-damn regular game?
Screw the collector's edition, it's a Prothean, it's important to the plot line, and even new fans want to see a Prothean.
