Child's Play has hit 11k. That is a massive amount of money. You guys are so generous.

I love every one of you that donated. <3 You guys are all making someone's day.
I'm too young to donate, myself. Still, I hope that even those of us that aren't donating are spreading this around any way we can! Keep it up everybody!


Just spreading the word around is a lot of support already. Just 2 days ago, most articles online labeled us as "spoiled, whiny fanboys/girls". Next thing we know, were finally getting our side of the story being told unbiased (on national TV even).

Hold the Line!!!

I just finished the game...

I can't believe what a terrible impression the endings left me with. The game was awesome, I actually almost burst into tears a few times while playing, it was -that good-. I quickly forgave it it's simplified dialogues, because I couldn't get enough of the story and well executed apocalyptic themes. Nothing could go wrong, or so it seemed.

Then god-child shows up, I'm given three "press a button to make ultimate choice" endings, and maybe that wouldn't have been so bad if they didn't differ only in the shockwave color (blue/green/red). If that's the only and final ending we're going to get, why couldn't have Shepard just bled out next to Anderson amidst exploding Reapers? That would have ironically been better. I don't get it, Reapers gone (one way or another), relays destroyed, crew stranded on a planet, where's the difference, where's the choice, what's the point? It makes no sense, is utterly pointless and hollow, and provides zero closure no matter your choices.

Is this the epic conclusion I've waited for years to see? Really? Oh God, I'll just pretend Shepard bled out next to Anderson and the latter part is some horrible mistake.

This cannot be happened. Oh, wait, I'm pinching myself for the past five days. It did happen.

I hope that a better ending comes out soon. The last thing I need is for the last five minutes of the game replaying through my head. Hopefully they'll also explain that dark energy thing mentioned on Haestrom. Didn't get what it meant.

Well then, welcome to the fleet. Your one mission is to stand with us and hold the line in a gallant attempt to gain real closure, and we are happy to have you on board. Keelah se'lai.

And just on a side note... how exactly did Garrus get back on the Normandy? He was with me right before I jumped to the citadel.


If you figure that out, let the rest of us know too.


Yes, please. You'd also have to explain why they would abandon Shepard at the very last hurdle.

Liara: "Quick, Shepard went up the Conduit! We have to follow him!"
Garrus: Nah, screw him, let's get on the Normandy that is conveniently landing despite Harbinger being right over us!"
Joker: "Come on guys, we have to get to the Relay for some reason, because apparently we all have a cowardly streak that hasn't been evidenced until now!"

I agree. We can tell by all the articles that have been coming out that even the journalists are starting to shift, and that they can't agree with "the ending was amazing" anymore...;)

The part that really raises my ire with the ending isn't that it's downright depressing, or that it has major plotholes (like the magical teleporting squadmates) or even that it's a complete deus ex machina. What I hate is that it completely cancels all player choice and reduces shepard who has stood up to every "elder race" in the setting to simply going along with the catalyst's three identical choices and shaky logic.

On a more positive note I just have to say that I am simply incredibly proud of everyone who has donated to charity over this fiasco of bioware's. I never thought I would see the day when angry gamers became a wonderful force for good; congratulations and thank you everyone.

I am so so proud of what we've all done with the Child's Play stuff.. I never expected it to get above $1200, much less nearly $12,000. It's amazing and going to do so so much good :D
