Yup. All of the ME fans are too invested in the story to let it go over principle. We'll complain, but we'll buy it anyway. I bought From Ashes, even though I bitterly complained about day-one DLC. But I had to see what was in it, and watching youtube videos just isn't the same.

They've really got us over a barrel. This makes me concerned for future releases from EA/Bioware. It makes me not want to buy them, not get invested in the stories or become a fan of the series, because they'll use that to squeeze many dollars out of me.

Perhaps I should consider giving up gaming. It's changing so much and not in a good way...
