You mean "by the admittance of that one woman who isn't even in charge of anything except the story, making her pretty much ideal for the role".bussinroundz said:

OT: No, I do not think Mass Effect 3 will be bad. I have enjoyed all their games from KotOR to the Dragon Age, from Baldur's Gate to Mass Effect, from Jade Empire to Sonic: Dark....wait never played that one.
I enjoyed DA 2 even though most people thought it was such a big change from DA:O. Guess what? It was. This industry thrives on change and experimentation. I know Bioware has been changed by EA, but they are not whoring out. Want to know who is? Look at Bethesda's Horse Armour. Look at Harmonix selling every song invented by man. Look at Infinity Ware's $15 map packs.
Probably, but oh well...
I'll give it a rent just in case, but I'm not expecting much.
If it turns out to be more like what I was hoping for, I'll be ecstatic, but I highly doubt that's going to happen.
On the positive side of things, I've learned since Dragon Age 2, and to a lesser extent Mass Effect 2 not to get my hopes up, so at least I won't be able to be disappointed this time, which saves me a lot of trouble. Not to mention if I do like it, that would be a pleasant surprise, so I have nothing to lose overall.
Certainly not pre-ordering this time though.

I'm sure the game will be good at the very least. Of course I'm not going to hype it up for myself just in case.
Really though, the way Bioware's fanbase seems to work, (in fact any fanbase really) there will always be a portion of it that will be disappointed with the final product. There's no avoiding that.
TeS, LotR, SW:OT, Warcraft Trilogy, Diablo Trilogy, Battlefield Trilogy (Well not really in terms of story but gameplay.), Saints Row Trilogy, GTA Franchise, I'm sure there are many I forget, but living up to the hype is not that rare.Shameless said:
The reaction to da2 probably made Bioware much more concerned to make me3 a success, two bad games in a row would look especially bad. So I think it'll be great.
I don't play Mass Effect because I want an RPG. That's hat I buy Bethesda games for. I buy Bioware games because of the rich universes, well-written characters and memorable stories.
The sad thing is, even if the shooting overshadows all the rpg elements and the single player gets shortened drastically to allow for multiplayer focus and all the female characters are made to dress in a sexually exploitative way and the plot ends with a really dumb deus ex machina.... if it lets me finish off the story and get closure with beloved characters (Ashley, Garrus, Wrex, Jack, Mordin, Legion, Tali etc) I will still call it a great game regardless.
I've been emotionally invested in the character's stories and their relationship with Shepard for almost six years now and I want to see the conclusion to that and get my closure so that I can just add 'Mass Effect' to the list of games that I've completed.
It was the same with Halo, the same with Gears of War and pretty soon it'll be the same with Mass Effect. I just want to see how it all ends and hope that it ends the way I want it to.
Everything else, is secondary.

Im not saying I wont like the game only that it will not be as good as I wish it could be.
I am going to buy this game.
I am going to like this game.
I dont think ill like it near as much as I could.
I blame EA for making stupid release dates.
I think EA is a greedy whore.
I think EA will make the quality of this game suffer ALOT.

I didn't have positive expectations for it. Didn't HATE the first game, but I really didn't like it either. Somehow they managed to botch it far worse than I could possibly have imagined, to the point that I've come to appreciate the first one a lot more for at least doing well at being a type of game I don't much like.From what I've seen of ME3, the beta leak and everything... yeeeah. Expectations are pretty low.
