The explanation coming from Vega and Ashley/Kaiden does not improve my issue with it even if they talk about it later. What I was expecting because of Bioware's PR prior to this, the press demo, the end of ME2 via Arrival was a chance to talk about, confront and be responded to by "The Alliance top brass" aka the Admirals during the court hearing...
If had trial I desire it to be a controntation between Shepard vs the Alliance (I am okay with or without his crew there to back him up). I am not interested in the councils opinion they made it clear through out the first two games multiple confrontations. What we did not have made clear and no trials unlike with council in ME1 and ME2 is such a controntation with the Alliance which is his/her people, spent most of his or her life serving and had the most impact on what made him/her the man or woman he or she was and respond to his actions and dialogue of past events.
Not "Vega" a mere squad mate. It's two completely different things.
This is on top of the fact I would of liked to have had "some" time experiencing life on Earth talking to people seeing everyday reactions to me and my past actions, see Earth as was prior to the attack. All snatched away which cannot be got back because they removed any form of control prior to running away, restricted dialogue to the extreme and forced automatic responses on a vast amount of the beginning dialogue. Within moments on top of that all hell breaks loose and your forced to run away and leave Earth. Even the way that last bit was done was grating... It was too fast and too rushed. I don't know how short Bioware thinks our attention spans are but give us some credit, as shown with
poll I did a large amount of people do actually have more attention spans than desire for instant gratification...
Now like I said game has gone gold no further changes will occur and yes this is all personal preference for people (not a straight up need akin to needing oxygen to stay alive), but it is a valid disappointment. I would love if DLC could fix this by creating story exposition and content for those missing 6 months and trial, prelude to that attack (it would be optional at that stage improvement to the game for those of us who feel this way while those who don't just don't have to buy it)
however "I" personally would buy it. This thread is more about airing disappointment even knowing wont change core game at this stage.
I wish people would stop coming in here on the offensive, attack people like somehow we are idiots for having such opinions or claiming we are haters and lower on the food chain, that we don't have the right to express our opinion and our disappointment is not valid. They can come in express their own 'preference' and such but attacking our 'preference' is not going to change anything.
Expressing my disappointment in this aspect does not mean I hate Bioware, it will not mean I am cancelling any orders and I do think the rest of the game will probably be amazing; the only thing is being expressed is disappointment in the introduction. I do have some concerns about how much use of auto dialogue is in rest of game and slight concern over how much imports affect story but those things won't know till full game unlike the introduction which we have been told is same and have experienced via the demo, the disappointment relating to what I described in this post at top which I would appreciate people read before jumping to wrong accusations, misunderstandings and replies.
After all these pages and my own response rght here, can Chris "still" not understand our disappointment?
