Points you buy with cash which are redeemed for Mass Effect / Dragon Age DLC... Like Microsoft Xbox Live points...
Posted March 21, 2015
Bioware points are like Microsoft Points on XBox Live in that you buy the points with real life money and then you can spend the points on games and/or DLC. The good thing for the company is that the number of points you can buy never match up with what the game/DLC cost so you will always have points that are "left overs". This of course suck for the customer.

Well who cares? The whole thing will be shut down before long when they realise that so many people are simply ignoring it and N00bplay and not buying any of their games until they get rid of them.

darthspudius: At a guess, in game currency to buy dlc? But that's just using my logic which is rare.
It's not even in game. It's a virtual currency you purchase with real currency to purchase DLC for a game you already purchased. Lots of purchasing for a DLC.

ROFL. +1

Maybe less epic but definitely cooler. I imagine him wearing sunglasses while saying that. Which reminds me of this.

I'm not scared of homosexualists. I just don't like to watch gay porn.
Personal preference, you know.

And you don't have to. Neither is it "porn" nor do you have to engage in any homosexual activities in those games. :P

Bioware pays too much attention to this "theme". Not mine cup of tea, i suppose.

What a beautiful cop-out out of the argument, I approve. First you claim that gay content is unacceptable to you per se, then that you aren't afraid of gays at all, then "Well, I haven't played it, but I know there's too much attention to this." Don't worry, this country's beliefs hardly harm their income, considering all the non-pirates buy at regional discounts.
Roskomnadzor theoretically might make Origin remove games with gay content any day now (e.g. because they don't check purchaser's age in his passport) and get away with it, so why should EA care about amounts of this content almost exclusively for Russians?
