If they "cared deeply" they never would have sold out to EA.
*facedesk* *facedesk* Edit: I just love the "don't change the ending, it'll set a terrible precedent!" people. Do they not remember Broken Steel? FO3's ending was garbage, and Bethesda fixed it. The world hasn't ended as a result.

People don't play it because it's fun. They play it so they can get 100% readiness in the single-player and then beat the game. Once they do that, then they ignore it from then on. Hell I didn't even bother. I just modified coalesced.bin to give me enough war assets to exceed 5000 EMS rating with no multiplayer at all. I haven't even registered my online pass (and I probably never will).

As a renter, it is really depressing, as companies are moving to completely destroy it. I find most games are not worthy of a buy, and likewise, my budget for gaming is not large. Instead of buying two games a year, I can rent from my local place for $6 for 5 nights. I almost never touch a game I play again after the first time, and renting is perfect for me. Then came the online passes. At first they had trials, so I could see if I enjoyed the online or not. Now those are gone. With rumors that the next gen consoles will have anti-used game software that forces you to buy a key, looks like I may just have to jump out of gaming. Too expensive for me. I envy the days of childhood when parents bought things. |

Hmm, well I'm more upset about the multiplayer have a very real relevance to your success in the single campaign. Did everything, my chances were low but measurable because my galactic readiness was sitting at the default 50%.
My sheploo will always die because I can't access multiplayer, more or less. |

You don't like the multiplayer. Cool. Others do. I do agree that the galactic readiness should be patched out stat though. I do like my multiplayer to be optional in singleplayer games, thankyouverymuch. |

This is why we can't have nice things. No matter how many people get pissed, it's not enough, and those who don't care are pointed to as examples of why things don't need to be changed. The MP is boring and I don't like it, but hey that's not why I'm furious with EA. I'm mad because those resources could have been used to make a better ME3. Maybe one with an actual fucking ending. Edit: I'll go ahead and preempt the inevitable bullshit and just say had I known the crap they would have pulled before I bought the game (I was trying to avoid news so to avoid spoilers, look how well that worked) I never would have bought it. As it is I'm unlikely to ever give EA money again, ever.

Maybe you're right. Maybe Blue God Kid magically poofed the multiplayer into existence.
