I'm not just trying to justify either, I'm bitter about the endings myself. I just think I like Bioware more before EA got involved.


Same here. But the truth is w/o EA Bioware wouldn't make Mass Effect. Financial issues.

Image is everything.

It doesn't matter or not whether people were serious in their posts of lack thereof about legal actions and possibilities. All it takes really is one poster (spreading rumor OR fact) and that's enough for others to take it and run with it.

I wanted to donate,I tried but for some odd reason it wouldn't take my credit card even though it's a MC. I'm not signing up for paypal so I will find some other way. Maybe I'll just go the previous mentioned route and donate directly from the charity.

I'm disinclined to blame Bioware for this though. No offense to EA fans but imo, most of the Bioware backlash (not just from this game) started when EA started running things. Or maybe I just started to notice it more. I'm not posting to rage against EA but it's highly likely that a lot of the "unfinished" things regarding Bioware games like this one are because of constraints EA placed on them.

I'm not just trying to justify either, I'm bitter about the endings myself. I just think I like Bioware more before EA got involved.

This is something that I have also noticed. Bioware games have been getting lots more bad feedback since EA snapped them up.

Good morning campers! And welcome to the newcomers. Finally... caught... up.... to current... page...

The line, it's being held. Like I wish I had been, wibbling in a corner for 10 minutes after the ending. 8|

I thought I saw mention, yesterday or the day before, of their being an official announcement of some kind, scheduled for today? Or was that just speculation?


There, there, buddy.  We all know that feeling.  It's okay to let it out.

I haven't heard about anything major happening today - except that I think this is the date for the Japanese release of the game, and I know some were interested in seeing what Japanese fans' reaction wuold be.  So maybe people were talking about that?

Do they really think that DLC with taking back Omega will sell ? Or some appearance pack + few more guns for MP ? I cant bring myself to re-play any of the ME games after i saw how it all ended. They didnt finish the saga, they butchered it in cold blood. I for one will NOT buy any DLC unless its some kind of fix or continuation. They literally committed marketing suicide. Im trying to understand them for 3 days now and i just cant. What company that sells stuff ignores their clients? So damn odd.

HOLDING THE LINE!

News:

The non-spoiler thread that had dev response was just locked. And this was posted:

http://social.biowar...5/index/9992961

Edit: it's here in the Spoilers Allowed forum, and Chris Priestly linked to it from the non-spoilers forum.  The non-sp thread was starting to leak into spoilers, so it's understandable.

I think they mean the official Charity hopepage not the official movement page. I tried to donate from ChipIn myself and it wouldn't take my CC even though it's a MC. As I'm not signing up for paypal, I have to go a different route.

is there any way to find out how much each individual donated?
id be very interested in the geometric middle since the arithmetic would falsify the result too much (dont hate, my statistics class was yeaaars ago - so i might be wrong ;) )

Lets show Bioware that we are not impressed in the lack of news and terrible supposed "Ending" and that it was not what we wanted in the slightest from this amazing video game series. Hold the line people!

 The game is the best one of the trilogy, but:
- ending is a bit frustrating. Not many differences, bittersweet all of them.
- The united fleet remained on Earth after the explosion of Mass Relays? Or how did alien cultures go home?
- Why was Normandy running away from the wave coming from the Crucible if it did not have any effect on anything (at least on Earth)?
Bioware should explain a few things if they made this happen. A lot of people ask to change ending, but I say if they did this, correct it with some explanations.


Yes every ship you brought with you is now dependent on a single planet's resources that has recently been razed to the ground, likely implying mass starvation, and definitely implying the starvation of turians and quarians who followed you since they can't eat any of the food on earth.

Furthermore no race can use the mass relays again, cutting off all major supply lines in the galaxy. Were you on a mining or research station? Hope there's a garden world within spitting distance because you aren't getting any more supplies. The thing about the ending is it's not all that bittersweet considering Shepard has just signed the death warrant of billions at least and completely isolated each member of the galactic community that you worked so hard to repair in the first 98% of the game, and that's in the best possible ending.

This of course assumes that the Crucible destroying the Mass Relays doesn't follow the existing lore set down by Arrival and cause a chain of supernova's that kills any poor sap unfortunate enough to be in a system housing a relay, including earth! We're never told by the magic child that the crucible does things any different than an asteroid so there's really no way we can assume it does otherwise other than "SPACE MAGIC".

I have a hard time getting a bittersweet vibe from any of the endings. The only bone we're thrown is "Hey at least at some unspecified point in the far future things don't suck for these two random people!"

Sorry for the rant, and I don't mean to be confrontational just woke up, and i'm a grumpy person before I have my coffee...

TamiBX and I tried to translate some of the Japanese fan reactions in 2ch. I know Tami posted there too, not sure how it is now though. If anyone here knows how to write in Japanese, please help.

Yep, been spreading that on here. Who knows, maybe someone will take notice and learn about closure. Especially the fighting cutscenes based on your actions. Seriously, a little bone there to those who worked their arses off to make sure as many people could be there without compromising their own moral standards.

It's BS.  If there was a "proper ending" DLC, they'd just announce it at this stage to placate the fans.  Instead they are toying with us.  They have nothing, and just want to placate the fans so we don't flood the market with used copies and kill their bonuses.

I would like a dlc mission to take back Omega, but only after we get a proper ending.

So far BioWare has not confirmed or denied anything. All statements are intentionally vague. So there is some hope, especially if we keep pressure.


I really hope that the endings will be changed and won't leave here until we have a final answer from BioWare, although there is not much hope for a positive outcome for this in my opinion.
Maybe they just stay quiet because a directly told "ending is fix and won't be changed" would hit their sales numbers more than their current policy of remaining silent.


That could be true and would show how bad they really are. But at some point it would be clear then, and the feedback would still be hard. But its like always... as long as people just shout and do nothing more, it won´t change anything. That is the same way how politics work for long years now.

I think the only way to show them, that this way would be absolutly not what they should do, would be that really much people will not buy any games from them anymore. But be honest: If in 2 years a new ME part comes out, who of us would really not buy it because they let us down in these days?


I'll wait a lot of time before buying it, i will first see some video/demo, after that i'll think about it.


If they don't fix this, I sure as heck won't. Not going to get into another set of Mass Effect games only for them to do this at the end.

Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.
