Well no doubt people will buy it no matter what like they did with COD and every other game that ultimately will only bring us worse and more expensive gaming experiences. Mindless drones without free will, slaves to entertainment and dopamine rushes thereof (false sense of achievement).
If you read the Bioware forums there's even a solid minority defending all these issues. It truly boggles the mind how people can champion causes that is in no way 'good' for them:
From Ashes DLC Released on XBL marketplace? (72 pages before being locked)
Mass Effect 3: From Ashes (286 pages)
The excuse that the DLC has been developed by another company on the side - and therefore cannot/is-not included in the actual release - is also being called into question since the voice overs seem to be in the actual game, and thus goes to prove that they knew about and had it planned way prior to. Maybe they're just trying to save face, maybe not, either way;
I'm with TB, I like the Mass Effect universe I want to play the third installment to see the ending and I had pretty much decided this would be the last EA game I'd buy, but now,
NO, as TB says a line has to be drawn in the sand.
There's too many negatives around Bioware/EA now, as many as there are with Activision. Time to stop buying/supporting their products altogether.
