FFS Bioware. Dragon Age 2 and now this. They are slipping HARD.
I.E. people who agree with your point of view? So if I'd rather wait and see, I'm not a "proper fan"?

Baldur's Gate had multiplayer too - didn't affect that game one bit. Personally I don't care if they add multiplayer or not, as long as the actual game remains awesome. If they want to make the gameplay more action oriented, that's cool with me - but don't screw around with the story telling which is arguably the biggest strength of the ME series.

Mass Effect 1 was a slow moving ponderous gameplay experience fitting the exploratory theme of the game. Mass Effect 3's story is a do or die situation - pumped up nigh panic'd action may well fit the game better.

Dragon Age 2 suffered from being a sub-par story with recycled environments. It's actual gameplay experience was a very nice change from DA1 (preference, though I suppose I'm not a a "proper fan"). If ME3 does the same thing, then yes, Bioware will have slipped - but I very highly doubt this is going to happen.

March 2012... yeesh. World is going to end before I see any of the games I want to play in the future.
