Why are you giving up hope? all that tweet says is that they weren't planning DLCs regarding the ending.

People in our position tend to be understandably jumpy.
I can only sympathize.

Listen: I know we've all seen the "confirmation" on twitter and facebook, but we need to realize that BW said "at this time."
I know a lot of you (me included) felt their heart sink when this was read, but please, there's still hope. HOLD. THE. LINE.

Alright, I've been lurking like crazy for the past week or two since I finished the game. I took it just as bad as everyone else did. But I feel like I have to post now.

Yeah, this whole fiasco has turned me a little bit renegade. But I remain true to my paragon self.
Besides, someone's gotta keep LiLi from going 'round the bend with cynicism!

I don't know what many of you expected.
But this sure as hell wasn't gonna be easy if Bioware had no original plans to change the ending on their own.
If they say no, you argue, if they go around you or try to ignore you, shout louder until they have to hear you.
Don't just bow your head after a simple "No" Insist, persist, be a bloody nuisance if you're so inclined.
Don't just accept the "No" at the drop of a hat.

Come to think of it, if Conrad Verner flew in on his own spaceship and shot proton torpedoes into the reapers thermal exhaust port thus blowing them up and saving the galaxy... I would feel that it would be a better ending.
Go go Conrad "Skywalker" Vernor!
Jenna would be proud...

Thanks. Feels good to finally post in this thread.
Now please, let's not back down because of two little updates on overrated social websites.

Allow me to quote myself from another topic, just to make sure that people who panicked at the twitter messages read this... This is important:
Hold the line.
The company is measuring response, it's in damage control and assessment. No need to panic. Even if they give a straight out answer like "we're not going to change the endings in any way", that doesn't stop the fight, that doesn't mean that no alternative endings will be seen in the end, when the dust settles and financial raports are made. Remember: this isn't just about our dissatisfaction and theirs oblivious satisfaction with the finale. It's about business. Consumers. Money. Advertising & PR. Units shipped, units sold, units returned, multiplayer games played, survey numbers and statistics. It all counts and the game doesn't stop even when they blow their first "enough is enough" whistles. It will be "enough" when we will be satisfied with the product we've bought. Not a second sooner.
This is a big company with gigantic money flowing from left to right, with its core fanbase - essential to any marketing plans and long-term financial stability - currently in uproar. Public trading means that A LOT of finance advisors and brokers look at each action BW/EA takes and at the reaction to those actions from the general public - and if something goes wrong, they loose money. If they loose money and don't repair the leak - they loose even more money. You would be surprised how much bad reviews at Amazon or other major outlets can cost in the long run.
You may frown at this, but in its core this conflict is about whether your money stays here, or goes elsewhere, whether you help spread the word about BioWare & EA games, or stay the hell away from them. This is the Consumerism 2.0 and it's a battle closely observed not only by the "gaming people" but also by specialists from the money markets & publishing (hence the interest from Forbes and other major news outlets), people who tell other people if it's worth to finance BW and EA projects, if its worth to add those 25% to the game's budget, if it's worth to expand, buy company stock, keep the GAME going.
We fight, because we feel cheated, our experiences shattered, Shepard betrayed - we fight because of our emotions, preferences and opinions, things that may seem abstract, but are actually worth THIS and THIS much in USD. And that's a good thing - because this means that in the long run we cannot simply be ignored. If we are a reasonable force, if we don't just sail away because we get bored, if we remember that we actually are the most important consumer group - we will get what we want, one form or another, sooner or later.
Don't get discouraged. Don't quit. Don't think that you don't matter. And most of all: HOLD THE LINE.
