yeah Game Informer did not call this man out on anything . They asked some stupid questions.

You know, sometimes people do things for the lulz.  The interview was a goofy way of acknowledging a few fanbase nitpicks.

Though Luke's question is still not forgettable.<_<

   




what question was that .

Oh well the so called Video Game Media is always for jokes and comedy and asking stupid crap . so I am not so surprised that GI was being total clowns in that Q and A . Those Anwsers are worthless .   

GI is just a PR tool for Gamestop and the developers. They are not to be taken seriously.

None of those questions are main line story questions .  I want someone anyone to ask the people at Bioware the hard questions . No what does GI do ask a bunch of silly questions . developers need to be called out and forced to answer the hard questions now days . but oh I forgot the so called Video game media does not have the balls and the skills to tear a new ass into these developers.  If I was doing the Q and A I would have dam sure asked about storyline questions.  I would show GI what the true meaning of hardcore is . 

To be fair I think if you tried asking those harder questions to them, the response would usually be "I can't say anything yet."

That said the questions (and answers) were a bit WTF. <_<

What "hard questions"? They don't want to give away the entire story 6-8 months before the release the game. And he did explain why the human reaper looked like a reaper, which seems pretty important to me.

Nice responses to some of the nitpicking here. Don't see why you guys are already dissatisfied. They couldn't ask him ME3 questions, could they?

They're not going to ask hard questions for the same reasons an interviewer on those entertainment tv shows don't on celebrities.

If they can not say anything thats fine but at least ask the hard questions . 

[Gamer790]

So the human reaper was going to end up piloting one of those massive reaper hulls. Thank goodness their starting to clear up exactly how that was supposed to work.

Because a.They won't get answers, b.They'll look as if they are attacking them.

Anyway, if you payed attention to ME2's plot, these were quite obvious.

They wouldn't get answers. Marketing has already set what the staff can talk about (the beginning of the game and a couple of scenes, without too many details). There is no way that Mac Walters would just start analyzing ME3's plot to a reporter.

I would appreciate you toning down the outcry, ExtremeOne. The hardcoreness you're talking about won't happen before E3, which is less than two months away. Have some patience and the whole world will fly for you.

Oh please what is there to protect Bioware from . They are a video game developer they should be able to answer the tough questions. The Video Game Media and its so called journalist would rather be friends with these people and buddies than doing their job . It is sad they would protect a video game developer .

Bioware doesn't need protection yes, but GI a. would look like asses, b.would probably never get an interview with Bioware for the next 5 years.

I will be glad to chill on this for now but at E3 I hope things are different .

...ask them hard questions? What Hard questions?

"What is the EXACT mass of Sovereign, and how much thrust did it require from him to achieve escape velocity on Eden Prime? Show your work."

Really good interview Shows that the devs do indeed read these forums and see out questions and theories. Nice little touch and I'm glad we got this kind of interview.

A simple modification changes the whole meaning of your post.

Now it sounds like Sovereign's ass was stuck in Eden Prime and they need to push him to unstuck.

I'd have been happier if they asked why Liara suddenly looked different between when you first meet her on Illium compared to when LotSB starts.

Since they seemed to try and play off the Conrad glitch as working as intended, or that they're taking it as canon now because they couldn't fix it, i would be interested in how they play that off.

I know it was because they wanted to re-design her on the spot, but it doesnt look to me like they would out and admit something that may be seen as an inconsistency.

Nice find! Pretty good Q&A. Some fairly decent questions were asked - some of which stumped Walters i think! Glad he didn't spoil anything about Mass Effect 3....though he did subtlely hint that we could find out about the IM's general location. Anyone have any idea what clue that "burning planet" thingy he has in his office is?

Pretty sure it's a star.

Assuming the display isn't magnifying, that means wherever he's at, he's very close to that star, or that star is HUGE.

I have two educated guesses.

One guess is that the star is Dholen (the star that Haestrom orbits).  I don't view this as likely, but Dholen is destabilizing like an older star (this is what Tali's team was sent there to study).

My second guess and, IMO, the much more likely one, is that he's on a space station in orbit around Mercury.  Mercury is the Roman name for the Greek god Hermes.  Hermes/Mercury was the guide to the Underworld.  Cerberus is the three-headed dog that guards the entrance to the underworld.  The Sun is possibly symbolic of the underworld since in Greek myth, those that died went to their final resting place beyond the gates of the setting sun.

Consider the symbolism.  Mercury, the Messenger, Cerberus, the Guardian, and the Underworld itself all come from ancient myth.  Similarly, TIM might be located on or near the planet Mercury (the Messenger in the sense that TIM himself is a messenger to humanity).  Cerberus, the organization, is the "Guardian" of humanity.  In myth Mercury/Hermes would guide the dead into the underworld through "the gates of the setting sun" to their final resting place.

So, that's my bet.  TIM's base is on Mercury.

Most game mechanics and changes don't require explanations.

They dont.

But the entire Q and A was pretty much about these finer, smaller, sometimes irrelavant details. They couldve asked them and gotten a reply just as much as anything else.
