I think EA, being the impatient idiots as they are, got impatient, told them to rush it out the door, hence the bugs, glitches, unfinished feelings of the game in general and then EA wonders why the game failed to meet expectations.......idiots.
EA was willing to delay the game by five months. I wonder who ultimately decided against it.
I think EA wasn't expecting it's Original Mass Effect player base to hate on MEA as hard as they did, along with how unpolished they made MEA compared to the original trilogy by making it the game more open world. While yes this could be a terrible move by the corporation we still have hope that the hype and love of the Mass effect Movie could revitalize the Mass Effect Project.

The movie has been in development hell for years and I think they were expecting Mass Effect Andromeda to be such a success that the movie's production would get back on track. The Mass Effect series is not currently in the best position, so it seems to risky to finance a big budget movie now.
I dont think EA are in that good a position, let alone the Mass Effect Franchise. Star Wars Battlefront series definitely makes money, but people dont like the pay to win aspect of it, and thats a competitive market. Anthem is delayed and that might be down to them wanting to get it right, or feeling that the stink about MEA is going to hit sales. There seems to be a magic 93%, in that if a game goes out of favour it loses 93% of its players. I think MEA has hit that, or is close to it. Those are the players that look for good games and have the money to invest in them. Destiny 2, with the preorder and season pass is around $200 and people are queuing up for it. I personally dont like it, having checked out some youtube on it, but a lot of people do and one of the main sites that rubbished MEA's facial animations is fawning over it. Chances of a MEA movie are low, game to movie adaptations are historically bad performers at the box office.
I don't hate it, I am still having fun with the single player game, I think I am on my third play-through.
But I do hate the obsession with Multi player. I have no interest in "Ping is King game Play".
I play single player, and that is what I enjoyed about DAO, DA awakening, DA2, DAI, ME, ME2, ME3 ( not so much ME3 ), and ME Andromeda. They give me my personal fantasy.
I just wish they would continue to do what they once did really well, give use great story's, and a wonderful personal fantasy that we can shape, as we go, for better or worse.
DAO had for me the most diverse choice system of any of there games, I still really enjoy that one. MY choice in character made a major difference in the start of the game, and because of the different treatment, of Elf, Noble, and slave cast, as well as choices in Race. It was and amazing experience.
I would really like to have more Bioware magic like that in DAO.
But mainly I just want the Really good single player games.
Let Doom, and The rip off artists of Blizzard, and others like them, do the "Ping is King game Play" thing.
They make a lot of money with multiplayer purchases. If that helps finance the single player campaign, I'm all for it.
Personally, I think we should contact Bioware and tell to give us a expansion (Aquarian Arc, who kill the founder, and who is the benefactor)
