Will EA and Bioware actually use MEA as a learning lesson?

Going forward, will Bioware and EA actually learn from the shortcomings of MEA or will they just ignore all critisms and blame the internet?

I was always under the assumption that the failure of MEA would be a wakeup call to EA and Bioware but I no longer believe that. Going by the boss of EA, it seems that they are doubling down on the idea that nothing was wrong with the game and essentially blaming the media/gamers for the failure of the game.

Yes, there was a population of people who was just looking for that moment tp pounce on Bioware and MEA was red meat. But that still does not take away the fact that many people simply just did not like the game. Take GamerMD for example, she has always been a Bioware fangirl and very supportive of them, but even she said she didnt enjoy the game. So to make this seem like it was internet haters who brought down MEA, perhaps EA and Bioware needs to look at themselves in the mirror and analyse what they could have done better rather than using the internet as a scapegoat.

So what do you think EA and Bioware will/do about the failure of MEA and how should that effect any future games like DA4?

Nope. Most of it was done after the outcry.

What does this have to do with my post? If you think I'm defending them, you are mistaken. I am no longer supporting Bioware. They have to earn my money back. 

Agreed, though a lot of the stuff only went to improving it for those who complained rather than improving it for everyone.

I disagree. The whole making Jaal bi thing almost certainly took a huge chunk since it required writing, animation, voice, etc and that was in response to fan outcry. 

MP is only having continued support because the numbers tell them it's worth to continuing, if it didn't they'd have pulled the plug on that too.

Your kindness and smart choices have elevated you to a higher standing with me. Thank you. I'm going to visit a bar in Kermit, Texas. They're holding a memorial for an actor who was born here (Jay Thomas) and I'm ordering up some tequila and a michelada (beer, tequila and tomato juice). Aw man... Harvey made things cooler here at least.

No.

They're still full of crap. 

As a matter of fact, they can't be trusted. History dictated by each title, DLC is already in the plans. Since EA decided to chop up stories to make DLC, the fact that MEA has open plotlines and DLC was killed just proves that EA doesn't understand the fanbase, the franchises themselves and their own employees. 

In light of EA's horrible marketing and PR decisions, I just have one thing to say as a fan who is tired of getting disappointed:

F*** YOU EA! F*** YOU AND YOUR BULLCRAP. YOU'RE LIARS, CON ARTISTS and YOU'RE JUST USING THE FANBASE TO JUSTIFY YOUR BLOATED SALARIES. The only golden era I see are the showers you're spraying on your loyal customers.
