Due to the amount of hate ME3 got, most of the reviews I have seen for the DLC have been mediocre at best and as BiowEAr seem to keep making more and more of it I wanted to know how many people are actually buying it.

Personaly I liked 90% of ME3. There were thing I did not like such as the quest journal, auto dialog, kai leng and his plot armor (who does he think he is Batman!?) and one bit I hated (guess which) but I still enjoyed most of it and I have replayed it a few times, stopping just after you speak to everyone on Earth for the last time.

That being said, as much as I enjoy it I will not buy any of the DLC for 2 reasons. First it changes nothing and I really wanted the ending to change (a guy can dream) and second after giving us that kick in the balls ending I do not thnik that they deserve any more of my money.

Bonus question. If they came out with a new ending, completly different, would you pay for it? I cannot decide myself as I am adamant that they not get any more of my cash for ME3 but I would love a new ending.

How about an "I really don't give a shit anymore" option? Because really, I don't. I played the game several times, hated the ending with a fiery passion, wished ill on whoever gave Kai Leng that plot armor, but overall enjoyed the game. Never played the multiplayer, as my connection is shitty and all I experienced was lag. But after a few months, I just didn't care about the game any more. I never even got the extended ending or watched any of the youtube videos of it. The Omega DLC disinterests me completely, as does any and all DLC they could release.

As to your bonus question, I believe I've given a suitable answer already.

Bought the major DLCs, but not the alternative appearance packs or anything. Thought the major ones were just OK, definitely not great.

And I hate to say it but yeah, if they put out a new-new-ending DLC and the price wasn't too high then I'd probably buy it. Unless that new ending was based on the Indoctrination Theory... in which case I think I'd just headbutt the monitor then cry a little bit.

Honestly don't care anymore.

Liked the game in generally, disliked bits about it. Enjoyed multiplayer for a short while and then sold it on.

I don't own the game anymore so no, I won't be buying it.

That's a bit unfair I suppose. I don't buy DLC as it is so even if I was still playing the game I wouldn't be buying it.

I bought the DLC for ME2 last Christmas when it was on sale, and then never got around to playing most of it. Did Overload (or whatever it was called) and Lair of the Shadow Broker, as well as Stolen Memory, but by that point I was all SPECTRE'd out and couldn't be arsed with the other. Annoyingly, it turned out that the one I didn't play was the big, plot-relevant one. Buggrit.

Hmm. No, I wouldn't. Partly because I was OK with the extended ending - it wasn't great, but it was passable - and partly because I never bought the game. I just borrowed it from a mate, and since he's got it back now there would be no point :p

NEVER!!!
Or at least that's the option I chose.

ME3 was a thoroughly mediocre game that had one or two highlights, a number of lowlights, and a ton of just bleh. Finished my first playthrough, didn't touch it again until the EC. Did the EC, uninstalled it and have no desire to re-install it. If there were DLC that provided a complete overhaul of the game for a decent price [<$30], I might get it. Otherwise, I'm not interested as it won't fix what was wrong with the game, and thanks to what was wrong with it [A lot of things], I have no desire to play it.

And yes, that includes new ending DLC. Unless they overhaul the majority of the story and mission structure with it, not interested.

I haven't really touched the game since i finished it the 1st time. Maybe i will consider it if and when i do another play through of the series. Hell i haven't even seen the EC yet and even for that i will take it with a grain of salt.

I got From Ashes. It came with the collector's edition. Oh, and I downloaded the free stuff.

Haven't got the rest yet. I'll more than likely pick it up Leviathan, Omega and whatever other single player DLC they put out in the future.

If they release something comparable to Shadow Broker, sure, I'd be intrigued. Otherwise I can't say I much care however seeing as I felt pretty burned by the majority of ME2's DLC and am not eager to repeat the experience.

From Ashes because I got the Collector's edition thing and I downloaded all the free MP stuff. I doubt I'll ever touch the single player in a Mass Effect game again, I just... kinda stopped caring.

Added just for you because you got my avatar :) Nobody else has recognised it yet. One guy asked my what was wrong with my Joker picture.

I did get From Ashes when I first bought the game, and I tried out the free stuff too. Other than that, no, I didn't get a single piece of DLC for the game. Simply put, the ending to ME3 killed any interest I had in the series and the setting in general. I know people are going to see that's an exaggeration or that I'm over reacting, but it's honestly how it feels now. For Mass Effect 1 and 2 I got every single bit of (proper extra mission) DLC, and I got every single achievement for both games. That's a lot of playing Mass Effect, believe me.

But after the ending of ME3? Ehhhhhh... I can't even make myself complete a playthrough of that game with my second Shepard. Say what you like about people going nuts over the ending, but it honestly stopped me caring any more.

I'll buy them all once I've completed this playthrough of ME2.
Except for the weapon/appearance packs.

nope. i just don't care. i really enjoyed it, then the ending gave me a bad taste in my mouth, so played MP for a few weeks. then did it again with extended cut, realised my whatever score was too low to pick synthesis option (the only one i didn't hate completely), so shot the god child and it gave me a super terrible ending and i haven't played it since, or wanted to for that matter

I picked up the day one content for my second play through (months after the end destroyed me for awhile) and the Extended Cut which I consider an indispensable part of the game and I recommend no one play without it, ever. I'm planning on picking up the others over the holiday break in classes or whenever the trilogy comes out on PS3 (haven't played 1 because I'm not on Xbox or PC).

Just going to wait for the get all DLC at once when they're all finished. I'll probably do another run through 1-3 one more time just for good measure. Maybe even pick up ME1&2 DLC that I might of missed.

Oh, this is excluding weapons and appearance packs, kind of pointless.


If I remember correctly, they still want you to keep your ME3 save for some reason so I think having many will be good. Depending on what the fourth installment of the Mass Effect universe is, could still be pretty interesting.
