@GrimReaperTaken Just FYI Mass Effect 1 was released on Playstation when they released Mass Effect Trilogy
The main issue is that many people have purchased the game when they first came out at the original retail price which could be between $50-$70 per game when first released depending on location and many people also bought all the DLC when they were each released which again varies from $3 - $15 per DLC, so people can spend anywhere from $100 to $300-$400 depending on when they bought it (and that isn't even including microtransactions if you purchased loot crates in ME3 MP) and now they have to spend another $70 - $100 for content they technically already own.
I understand that the work put into trilogy would need some compensation however people would just like a reward for supporting the franchise (some since day one) especially when other stores are offering a discount for the same product while here there is none. Along the lines of "For showing your support for Mass Effect here is a discount as thank you".
PC players I don't think are complaining as much as it is possible to get the same results of - or close to - Legendary Edition by using fan made mods as there are many that offer features that are included in the Legendary Edition so the incentive to pay again is not there.
I agree. I bought the first game on the recommendation of a friend and pre ordered the rest through Andromeda. But the more people who wait or hold off at release, the quicker the game will go down in price or go on sale on Steam for pc players. It still stinks, but EA has been after a money grab since the last several marginal games. They want us to complain but spend the money because we love the game.
I say, Wait.
How often do games go up in price? The more that wait, the better the savings in mid to late summer.
