F4LL0UT: Me too (and I ended up not playing the game because I never felt like I had the complete package yet before my initial enthusiasm ended :P). Frankly to this day I do not understand why they even came up with this bullshit. I mean, how were the points beneficial to anyone? They made things awkward for the consumers and I don't see how BioWare benefitted in any way from them. It almost appears like it was about exploiting a loophole concerning taxes or their deal with EA or something. Whoever came up with the BioWare points should be thrown into a volcano.
Here is a look inside their twisted business strategy which clearly shows that they think of consumers as nothing more then moneybags. Nickle and diming customers is the new Bioware way which is not going to change even after they get rid of Bioware points. That is why to this day no complete version of their later games like Dragon Age II and Mass Effect have been released, not even in the trilogy pack on consoles for the latter. http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2012-08-13-bioware-on-how-to-monetise-players-day-one-dlc-online-passes-micro-transactions
