Hey I'm not sure if this is the right thread for this, but I was just looking though the new datapad app on my iPhone. I found a planet that matches the one joker lands on in both description and the picture attached to the entry. I don't know if this has been posted before but here is the link:

The planet is called Aiea and is decribed as a garden world, hope this helps

Aiea aka Deliverance planet.

So I'm really not trying to troll, but how would you guys feel if the indoctrination theory is true and they were planning The Real ending the whole time and it's released for free?


Delighted, frankly.

I'd also praise Bioware for the superb ruse.  The indoctrination theory is proved wrong  though.

See that's worse because we know if our crew eats anything in there, their brains will all rot.

OMG -- Joker, the women on the crew are NOT to be used as sex slaves! Joker? JOKER, are you listening?

Hello (sorry about the english)

I am a big fan of the mass effect story, and have so far been a loyal customer of bioware (i even loved DA 2 but dont say that out loud)

The fanboy in me has finally stoped his nerd rage, but the customer in me is still quite offended at biowares actions, they have told/promised us some things that we where not given, and this makes ME3 a poor product, it is not propper to promise things you cant keep, this i learnd when i was six years old.

I also see arguments that ME3 is biowares art and we have no rights to change art, if the art were free of charge + free DLC`s that would be correct, but this is art that we customers need to pay for with our own money, so its art, but commercial art or a product.

I have also seen the theories that they planned for this all along, and if they did i will say thats a risky PR stunt they are trying to pull at us, this seems to be a bad idea seeing how my thrust in bioware as a company is at zero right now.

I hope they will change it, i really do.
But until that time this norwegian will hold the line.

E3 gamescon and such are going to be fun this year, everyone is just gonna ask if casey and mack were involved in the ending of like every game


They could just slap a sticker on every game:

"Seal of approval: Neither Casey Hudson nor Mac Walters were involved in the making of this product!"

Yeah Forbes has been pretty good over the controversy. Glad to see it. A few other places as well. I'm surprised alot of the gaming specific media groups are so one sided against us on this. Yea even with the fact that they get their revenue through game company adds. Usually they are somewhat sensitive about the perception that they aren't actually giving their opinions freely so they try to come off unbiased. Or maybe I'm just being naive.

Is it just wishful thinking on my part, or does it seem like, on balance, we may be starting to turn a corner with the media? (feel free to say "what the !@&!# have YOU been drinking???")

 OK I just had a thought, the ending would have been OK if there was indeed other different endings, the fact is though that it ends the same way no matter what you choose, making the choices made through out the rest of the trilogy pointless (which many of you have stated already) I mean Shepard dying made me cry so much (but I am indeed a big softy and cry at lots of sad things) I even googled "how can I save my Shepard from dying" that was when I found out that the ending is the same no matter what. I then forced myself to replay it again (hearing about "the breath" Shepard gives at the end of the destroy option), I thought "maybe that will make me feel better"......I didn't get it, I don't even know why I didn't get it, all I got was more heart ache as my Shepard whom I worked my ass off to make a paragon and live through ME2, died all over again. Wasn't there supposed to be 16 different endings? what exactly are they?

I am not trying to gripe and I'm sorry if it seems that way but I really am curious on the last part "What exactly are the 16 different endings?"

As always I will Hold The Line.

People feel that indoctrination has been proved wrong through coy BW Tweets and the Final Hours DLC. Still nothing conclusive either way (ie word from BW) tho.

So what was said that disproved the indoctrination theory? I've been out of the loop for most of the day XD (Didn't really buy into the whole thing anyway, but still it was nice to think about)

Here is my take, I don't think it was anything to do with indoctrination, Shepard received a nasty bump to the head twice near the beginning of the game, then he/she is put under a lot of stress uniting the galaxy, in the last run the beam struck nearby knocking Shepard unconsious, the rest is halucination, I could never wrap my head around Shepard being knocked unconsious at the beginning of the game, the scene was focused on, why?

IMPORTANT

I'm posting this, and will probably bump it a few times, because I think we need to encourage each other to remember who we are. It was touched on a few hundred page ago, but IMO can't be repeated often enough,

Commenting on Forbes contributer Dave Their's piece yesterday about Chris Priestly's "We're Listening" thread here on BSN, Rob Munsch said something really profound about the game industry's insistence on referring to us as "fans:"

"Fans are demanding, cranky, unreasonable, over-emotional, easily discounted. Nice to have, but not vital. When you stop pretending they’re 'fans,' and start thinking of them as 'customers,' that will be the real ground-breaker."

This is so very true.

It's no accident that the industry uses that term. It elevates the vendor to the status of celebrity/artist and diminishes the customer to the status of, well, fanatic.

We are customers of BioWare and consumers of a product. This doesn't give us the right to be obnoxious jerks, of course, but it does elevate us from the status of drooling, crazed fanatics to the status of reasonable people who are approaching the reasonable people at BioWare to engage in reasonable dialogue about a serious consumer issue.

Never forget that.

Heads high, shoulders back, eyes on the goal. Hold the line.


Great write up. Thanks.

 

Exactly as I said  during the whole Day 1 DLC   fallout.. 

I am a consumer first and fan second... and right now I am one pissed off consumer.

For sure forbes has been fair with its articles, and there has been more Websites That at least keep an unbiased approach. It is just upsetting to see the popular gaming sites being crass and even downright insulting. (im looking at you gamespot and ign)

Personally I preferred the "refuse the choice/it's another means of control/exhort the fleets to fight on"-type ending to the "zomg ur indoctrinated!" alternative.

Just my two pence.
