Where did you get that? =D
Link, please!! (trying to post it in another thread)
I don't have a link handy, but it's from the hard to miss cupcakes thread on the General Discussion board. It's the biggest title, you'll know it when you see it. Just click the Bioware logo below, and you'll find the post.

So here's the thing that ticks me off. They won't accept the cupcakes because they are a criticism on their game. They also ignore the fact that we sent them out of love as well. If it was just a message being sent, there's a lot of other things we could've sent to them that weren't so tasty. It's like they are saying "I'm sorry, we don't accept criticism."

Here this should make you feel better, I know it helped me. Chris Priestly saw that we pretty much all had that same reaction and this was his response:Chris Priestly wrote...
People are spinning this incorrectly to say we are not listening to "negative feedback" and how bad we are and etcetera.
Wrong.
We did listen. At no time did we try to stop Fuss for making the cupcakes or delivering them (this would be unfair to Fuss and to the fans who sent the cupcakes and a generally dickish thing to do). When the cupcakes reached us, we did not refuse to take them (again, unfair to the people who sent them). I, along with Fernando, Mark and Alistair went down, met with Shadow Wrought, gave him some swag for being brave enough to show up and keep us honest and took them upstairs. We took all of the included messages out of the bags and boxes so we would not lose them (again, cuz we're listening). We did not throw them away, ignore them till they got stale or not use them as what they are, food. We chose not to eat them and gave them to a needy charity.
The message REACHED us. Whether we ate the cupcakes, threw them in teh garbage or donated them to charity is secondary to us getting the message, right? If we had (somehow) frozen time, put them in a display case for all time as a reminder of the message sent by fans, this would have been the same thing.
Us actually eating the cupcakes or not should not have been the issue. The issue was fans creatively sent us a message expressing their love for Mass Effect as a franchise, but dislike over the endings. This message was delivered to us and we got it loud and clear.
Edit for formatting stupid copy paste... <_<
Also thanks for the cupcake pic LadyofRivendell:wub:

So you say there's no other way? That it may impossible to eat all these cupcakes? Let me offer a solution. See that middle paragraph?The gesture certainly gained our attention both with its creativity and deliciousness. However, while we do appreciate that fans were creative in how they expressed their views, after a lot of discussion, we decided ultimately the reason that they were sent was not done in the context of celebrating the work or accomplishment of the Mass Effect 3 team. This is a subtle, but important aspect in determining how to pass the feedback to the team.
Yeah, that one. Remove it. Now it has nothing to do with how they won't accept criticism or rejecting cupcakes and it's simply about giving them to charity.
But no, they had to put that little dig in, didn't they?
Oh and remember how the media were accusing us of using a children's charity as a shield? Oh look, now Bioware is doing the same thing. And they of course make sure to send the story to gameinformer instead of just posting it to the forums where it originated. Now the fans can't complain or else they are hating children. I just love PR departments.
People need to remember that Bioware is a business. At the end of the day, it's about the bottom line.

I don't see that too often outside of here. It also made me laugh a few times with comments from the writer.

Not sure if anyone else posted this yet, but on G4 someone wrote an article about the Romances in ME3. I was pleasantly surprised to see the love for Kaidan in it
Word of caution, the writer was not as much of a fan of Ashley's

I don't see it as rude in general, although I think a better move would have had at least one staff member eating one very publicly (or, better yet, three of them, each with one color) and then sending the rest off to a worthy cause. I haven't heard how many cupcakes there were but I got the impression that it was quite a lot. Wouldn't it be worse to hear about dozens of stale cupcakes being found in the trash out back in a couple of days?
And, erm, Kaidan would totally eat cupcakes. There! Back on topic.himselfyour bed? :innocent:
OK my mind just went to the gutter. It's over on the left side in a corner if anyone is joining it there.
I'll be right there, with mint juleps. >.>

Wait... Someone else, someone professionally affiliated with the industy, likes Kaidan? And can spell his name right?!
That right there calls for celebratory cupcakes on its own! Unfortunately, all I have is a leftover slice of razzleberry pie...

You won't get to stare at that ass forever though; Kaidan is gravely
injured during this battle. He is hospitalized on the Citadel for the
next few missions. Buy him some whiskey and visit often to make sure you
can romance him again in this game. If you romanced someone else in Mass Effect 2, you're a ****, but also just say sorry."
Bwaahahhahahaha
Edit: Oh come on! I can't say Whoore? It was a quote!
Am I the only one who wanted him to be a little more upset that I slept with Thane? 'Cos, really, the idea that he dated some **** while I was dead bothered me more than a love affair with a Drell seemed to upset him.leborum wrote...

Is Ashley really bad in ME3 or something? I never remember there being so much hate for her before, I do hate her appearance overhaul, though - The hair is okay, but no one needs that much makeup, especially not a soldier! And it almost looks like her cheeks got chubbier...
That being said, she's still my third favorite character, I've just never had her survive Virmire so I don't get it.
Fixed that for you.TamiBx wrote...
I did too. I feel like he gets angrier at you in ME1 when you are flirting with him and Liara assumes that being nice means you want to have blue babies with her than he gets at you when you actually cheat on him.legbamel wrote...

I was expecting a "I'm not going back on Normandy until you break up with him" or "I refuse to date you ever again" or a fight...
He doesn't even say anything if you cheat on him with Jacob and take him(K) with you to meet Jacob...
Long hair is nothing but a danger with husks around. They'll grab hold of it, drag you down, and beat you to death. Keep it short, keep it safe, Shep.TamiBx wrote...
Oh, I've never had her survive in my game either. I saw in someone else's and she's just so..annoying. I just don't like her.
Also, her armor in ME3 is so not appropriate. It looks like she's wearing a skirt. And she needs to tie her hair back (if my FemShep can't have long hair, she can't either)
Modifié par legbamel, 30 mars 2012 - 01:02 .
If all my Sheps were the same why bother making so many of them? I made one just for Thane and another for Garrus. Sure, all of the rest were for Kaidan, except the male Shep with whom I tried to go renegade and then had to delete because he was so incredibly awful. Even in that game I couldn't keep Ashley.Poshible wrote...
Why did you choose your Sheps to cheat anyway?
The end of ME2 is so cute when she looks at his picture before going to the base. I never could let Shep hook up with anybody else.
It makes the romance all the better in 3 as well.

Ashley is just abrasive which some people don't like. I personally enjoyed talking to her, but I can see how her personality might turn people off. It's certainly better than the excuses for hating Kaidan.
"He's whiny!"
"He's boring!"
"He isn't loyal to me!"
You mean he gives his backstory, he's not an alien, and he doesn't blindly follow your every command. Yeah, those normal people really get on my nerves <_<
