As a historically console player, I've finally got the option to get this game on either PC or PS4. I remember that when DAI came out, several PC players seemed to have a lot of trouble getting the game to run around those first few days (at least that's the feeling I got from the old forums). Does this sort of thing happen frequently with new AAA titles on PC? I really have no idea as I'm so used to just plugging the disc in and being good to go.
I can see myself being happy playing the game on either platform, but just wondering what sorts of issues I might come across on PC.

If you want to plug the disc and be good to go, I would say pick the PS4 version. If you want to have better performance, graphics and unofficial mod support and all that after some months, go for the PC version.

It'll be on PC when I end up buying for myself...but I will also buy a copy for PS4 for my son who is also a Bioware fan (I indoctrinated him early:). I didn't experience the issues many other PC players experienced with DAI. I do intend to hold off on a day 1 purchase unless I can find some trusthworthy reviews.
If you have a high end PC rig for gaming, you should have little concern. Where some people get into trouble is trying to play on an outdated or marginal rig. I'd probably recommend if your comfort level is already on console, you should probably stick with that...unless you're looking to be able to mod games moving forward.

I'm getting it on PC asme as I did with the trilogy before it. But then I've never really ran into problems with DAI and I don't expect to with MEA either.

Well I usually wait about 2 weeks after release before I purchase but I only own a PC so PC it is. Plus got to leave the option of modding in the long run. I know some may not care for that but I like a game to have increased reason to play and if the game is horrible said mods make it playable for me again (ME3:EGM).

PS4. I plan on playing the fuck out of the multiplayer, so naturally I'm going to play it on the platform where I know the most people.
I might pick it up for PC later on down the road if I enjoy it enough, but I would want to upgrade my system a bit first.

I play on PC. And Bioware stated they'll support controller for PC so if that's what you end up preferring, you can do that.

Honestly, it's probably going to be both for me lol. I'll probably do what I did for DA:I: PC first then the GOTY edition on PS4 once that's out. .....I'm just now realizing I own the entire ME trilogy with all DLC on both PC and 360 (though 360 was my primary platform for that one). I think I have a Bioware problem

I'll play it on PC, as usual for me. I've never had an issue with BioWare games on PC so I'm not worried about problems with it running.

Seeing as how I don't own a console, I will be purchasing it on PC.
In general I don't tend to have issues getting new game to actually run. I will sometimes spend a little bit of time tweaking it to get better performance and get it running the way that I like, but it wont actually have issues even if I don't do that.

Since HDR is supported and it's got full controller support I'll go for PC this time round, been X360 all trilogy until now. Got a beast rig hooked up to a KS8000 4K HDR TV and my X1 controller is ready to charge biotically!
