Of course. I'm not going to suggest that every mistake made is EA's account, but they obviously have a hand, if more indirectly, in the game's development. I don't think EA is at all a good thing for BioWare, but they're not the root of all Mass Effect's flaws. Evil corporation or not, you're right: they shouldn't be used as a scapegoat.

However, I do believe the EA's scheduling does hurt BioWare.
