People need to stop blaming fans for this mess

Even though I like the game I personally believe that Biowares managers drop the ball and thought the game was going to write itself. And as far as EA is concerned the only influence they had for Andromeda was by telling Bioware that there needs to be more games in their highly successful series Mass Effect. EA couldn't see throwing away a very successful series just because the devs at Bioware wanted to shelve the series and move on to other things.

I would bet that EA thought it would be in safe hands even if they allowed a studio of lesser experience to work on the title because Bioware had built three installments of the series already and they hoped that they could "babysit" them so to speak. And they would be able to rely on the more experienced upper management to give them to give them the resources,tools and to guide them throughout the creation process.

You can read an interview with one of Biowares founders Greg Zeschuk where he discusses the positive effect that EA had for Bioware ( of course things could of changed since then )

Or you can blame Trump since EA and Take-Two claim that "Trump’s policies are hurting the US game industry, say EA and Take-Two". Which actually wouldn't do Andromeda any good since he had just recently became president.

Man, that'd be really sloppy to forget.

....it was a flop. Other projects has nothing to do with it. MEA bombed, and EA wants to cut their losses and move on.

Making lots of money is a flop? Maybe in world of fantasy. In world of dollars and cents it was deeply flawed but profitable and in most cases would warrant an eventual sequel. I'm to the point now I hope the franchise is dead to I can watch the neckbeards cry over that when they thought they would get the game their dumb slowflake butts originally wanted.

The fans are only one percent of the people that have to buy a game to make it a succes. The biggest reason there won't be DLC is probably because a majority of players that bought the game, didn't finish it. They can see it on Origin.

I actually got the survey and the question about would you recommend the game was definitely for SP.  They asked you that question, and then asked if you would like to answer some questions on MP (yes/no), they were optional.

I see no purchase in playing the blame game. I accept what happened, that other people did not like the game. There is nothing for it. I bow to the majority and pray that next game I like will be universally loved. But my heart has no talent in picking the winners of the masses' approval. I strike out on all these "average gamer" and "universal" stuff.

Why? EA gave Bioware 5 years plus extended it several months for them to get it out. EA (like all other corporations) are out to make money. IF Montreal couldn't do it within the given time frame, then they should have just said so. At some point people need to hop off the blame EA train and point the finger at Bioware once in a while. EA has deserved a lot of it's hate but not this time imo...

exacty!
bioware montreal developed the game, not fans,
so, bioware is responsible

BioWare released a messy game and got a messy reception. Next time, they just need to get their shit together again. Not these unfinished and mediocre games.

Me included after playing the demo. The combat, dropping in and exploding enemies appalled me. I only got around to buying it after having played MEA. And to my surprise, DA2 was so much better.
