I know I am jumping on and repeating what others have said, but figured another voice can only add to the cause.
From my POV, I have loved the ME series (include MEA) and think I have all of the DLC to go with them on PC.
To make it worse I have various versions on XBox and PS. I think I own some twice on PC as it was cheaper to get some DLC at the time.
Although I am really tempted to buy this and play it all again I just cannot justify the price tag when I have them all sat in my library that I mainly paid full price for.
I get the extra work and care that has gone into all of the updates and I know they need to make a buck to justify and develop the games we all love to play.
Also, on the fence as to if Origin is the method to get the game as pretty much all my games are via Steam. Seems no incentive for me to buy this way for the same price (which I assume will be a contractual thing).
As stated in the original post, even a token gesture seems like a create idea and would probably tip me off the fence.
It would probably win EA such a huge amount of brownie points with gamers and get purchases via Origin (without Valve taking a cut) that you'd think it'd be a win-win and a major PR coup.
For now I think I'll just keep an eye on the model SR2 sat on my desk and keep my fingers crossed for a price drop.
