Mass Effect 2 and 3 DLC Bundles Now Available for Direct Purchase on Origin
Purchasing DLCs for the Mass Effect 2 and 3 games has always been a pain, and expensive too. Players couldn't purchase the DLCs directly from the Origin Store. Instead, they had to buy special Bioware Points that are only sold in packages. Currently, the 800 and 1600 points packages cost $10 and $20, respectively. Due to the huge variation in Bioware Points between each DLC, players usually spend more than necessary to get enough points to purchase a specific DLC and sometimes end up with unused points. Although it's a little over due, EA finally puts the DLCs up for direct purchase on the Origin Store. The Mass Effect 2 DLC bundle is priced at $24.99, while the Mass Effect 3 DLC bundle will set you back $29.99. Just a reminder that the Origin Holiday Sale is still in effect, so you can get the standard edition for $6.49 if you don't already own them.

I remember looking to buy ME2 and ME3 a few years ago and actually getting it DLC-complete was impossible. You needed separate accounts even on Biowares website. A simple GOTY isn't available. I pirated them both, which took all of 2 minutes.
You missed my sale, EA. Its telling how badly they treat their best content. They just don't give a shit.
Don't forget to include the first game in the series..
So again, no Thank You EA. When you go DRM free, stop treating the general public like naughty children and thieves and stop "Nickel & Diming" us with microtransactions and loot-box crap, you'll get more of my money. Until then you will likely continue heading in the direction of THQ and the like.
I bought 2 games from EA and that's it....no more..
It was undoubtedly a nice little cash cow for them getting people to buy expensive DLC who had bought the base games cheaply on Steam & Origin.
I guess Bioware have now concluded they're not going to get many more sales from it in 2018 so have allowed EA to offer it themselves.
