I do respect it but I also disrespect those that would deny others content or would retcon the dead just so they could have the game THEY want to play and not the game BIOWARE wants to make.
It has been pointed out to you sooo many times that Bioware is making a game where a players choices impact the story. If you don't want that kind of game - there are real life choices you can make - like play a different game.
Simply put Bioware doesn't have infinite reseources, time, money, and manpower. As a person who's made many things in the past I know what I'm talking about in this scenerio. Yes that stuff would be nice but you must be realistic.
The Bioware story is not an infinite story with infinite choices. They've planned from the start a set number of choices and moved them forward. It has been pointed out to you by others that Bioware has not painted themselves into a corner where they have a story with too many choices at the end for them to manage. They can handle it with the resources they have.
Put yourself in Bioware's Shoes. You have finite resources, time, money, and manpower. Than you have someone like EA breathing down yourt neck because EA must continue to be profitable and has Stock owners and the such to appease. Let me tell you, those types of people are hard to please and almost always extremely greedy. Simply put they hate taking risks and neither does EA.
This is your opinion on the state of EA and Bioware's relationship. You're entitled to your opinion. But none of this exlpains in real dollars and cents how EA has destroyed Bioware's plans to make ME3 tailored to our choices from ME2 and ME1.
My awnser is the fairest and most logical awnser of all. They all have many variables that deny theie return and none should ever receive any special treatment over the others. That and I highly distaste punishing casuals and newcomers just to appease a small hardcore crowd that 'might' care.
Again, this is opinion. You're entitled to it. But Bioware can easily say - look, we've been telling you guys for 4 years now that this is 3 parts and that your choices affect the story - don't cry when you don't like the results of your choices. They made this point super clear in ME2. You make the wrong choices - squadmates - even Shepard - can die. And people love it.
I was kind to my Squaddies under the hope that by Mass Effect 3 they would have grown past just being mere Squaddies and actually do something important and beneficial to my cause. They're some of the most trusted persons my Paragorn Shepard knows and currently the Universe is ignoreing the threat at hand. Thus the best use of the Squaddies would be for them to gather aid for Shepard or simply bettering themselves dureing the Time Skip. Such as Garrus forming his own team that Shepard can rely upon since Shepard can't be everywhere at once when the Reapers attack.
What YOU consider the best use for your squaddie's in ME3 is your opinion. A lot of people, including me, don't share that opinion - for all the reasons we've stated before.
They will own it by missing cameo's or plot events such sa being able to send Garrus and his own Squad to deal with another Reaper attack while Shepard is busy elsewhere. If Garrus is dead than the team that goes instead would fail and many more innocents would die due that fact. That's more than enough punishment there which is to deny access to the Best Mass Effect 3 ending, without imports, and more deaths on and off screen due to highly trained allies no longer being alive to aid against the massive Reaper Invasion.
What you consider more than enough punishment, is, again, your opinion. That's cool. But you've been going on and on about variable and facts and throwing attitude at folks with a different opinion. You are entitled to your opinion. But so are we. Chill.
