User blog comment:The Milkman/Why BioWare HAS Betrayed Us/@comment-3399608-20120331104838

It wasn't $30, 000 raised it was $80, 000, and it would've increased if it continued. I agree with everything in this article. Sure, I romanced Liara, who many, including me, claim to have the best romance scenes in the game, but I don't get why they screwed almost everyone else over. Hell, they delayed the game, it's not like they were short on time! And regarding the DLC, it is complete bullshit that BioWare think they can sell us, their loyal fans, an unfinished product. That is blatantly unacceptable, and I hope other developers don't follow this practice. BioWare was once my favourite developer. It's because of them that I started my "Three B's of Gaming" list. Well, them, Bungie and Bethesda. See the difference? The other 2 haven't betrayed their fans. In fact, Bungie and Bethesda still have incredibly strong and loyal fanbases, while BioWare's is up in arms over their actions of late. Not only regarding Mass Effect 3 itself, but what lead up to its release. Whatever reason they have to justify their recent actions I'll hear, but I've lost faith in them. When there are companies like CD Projekt that truly appreciate their fans and treat them well, I can't justify supporting BioWare, purely on what they used to be.
