Yes. I like the dialogue in this game, especially in the class quests. Only BW game that I've been disappointed with this gen is DA2.

ME 1 was fine. Nothing too original (blablabla one chosen hero - save the galaxy please... again) but it has some sweet spots to be remembered. ME 2 was dissapointment for me, never actually finished it. If ME 3 will be better I might consider it, and it will have nothing to do with TOR.

Unfortunately, this was my first BioWare game in a while (loved Baldur's Gate and that was the only BioWare game I have played for any length of time, tried some others but couldn't get into them), and I don't think I will be picking up any other RPG's from BioWare. They just don't make good games anymore. While the stories are phenomenal, the gameplay is arduous and I get bored of having to follow the story the developers have crafted.

Not taking anything away from people who like BioWare games, but I am just of the opinion that I can read a book for an epic compelling story, and unless the rest of the game is top-notch, having a great story in a game isn't a big enough hook for me.

I will never purchase anything that says Electronic Arts or Bioware again. Also learned by lesson about Sony Online as well.

Neither company will ever be worthy of my money and all else, have extremely low standards and truly don't understand game engines.

Blizzard and Trion, sadly are the only MMO companies that have a clue about the industry, talk to their customers and can produce a game worthy of my money.

Yes absolutely.

ME3 should be getting produced by the original BioWare office in Edmonton, not these pretenders in Austin; so you can expect an amazing end to the series (with hopefully limited EA intervention).

So, why do people even compare Mass Effect to SWTOR...aside from a conversation wheel (which existed before ME) they are nothing alike.

I dont see how your views on SWTOR have to alter that of your purchase plans for ME3.

One is a large budget MMO. You pay monthly.

One is a mostly single player RPG. No monthly price.

If you liked ME just buy the damn game. Unless your not a responsible adult, $60 isnt exactly a huge sum of money to be spent.

I have over 1000 hours logged among me2/me1 and will absolutely buy ME3, I don't plan to drop my subscription for TOR though.

I am workin on my second 50's gear now and love it so much more than my first 50. I definitely rolled the wrong character.

I was BH, now I am Scoundrel. Lovin' it Mcdonalds style.

But yeah, I bought Mass Effect 3 N7 Collectors Edition.
If things get any worse, I'll have to ask you to stop helping me.
