It's not about the fact it ended, it is about the HOW. People don't like to feel betrayed, you know?

I think that was appropiate...

Welcome. Glad to have you with us and next to us. Come inside and have a cup of tea, most of us feel the same way you do. You are in good company.


Thank you very much and as everyone else is doing I will hold the line as well and hope for a more conclusive ending that isn't vague and shadowed like I am talking to the Architecht in Matrix 2.


I have a feeling you'll get a kick out of this...

That made my night. I laughed very hard.

You had respect for the media?


Some, very little, but still had some...

Now, the only thing keeping my faith in the media alive is called Forbes...

I responded saying: "Since the article suggests that the game is ending and fans just can't deal with grief. Does that mean there will be no DLC?" Not trying to attack the guy but this question actually made me really curious lol.

Anyways I think I will just stay here and ignore twitter, Twitter bores me anyway.

 Tali's face, the ending, the cutscene with grandpa and little kid....It all indicates that Bioware was running out of time or something and decided to rush it.
Now, why? Were they too busy making Kinetic and multiplayer to focus on the real thing, which is the single player story? Or did they just rushed it? 


They knew the Reapers were coming?

But for the record, I for one find Tali's face to be fine. Yes, a truly custom image would have been better, but I would have never known it was a stock retail rehash if not told. Maybe it doesn't feel so bad, because my fantasy bubble got popped at the ending first?


Haha, I didn't really mind Tali's face either...or that might be just because I don't really care about Tali (sorry, Tali lovers)
But the ending...oh yes, that I cared about. After I found out about the ending, everything else was just...pointless.

I don't want to be a d*ck, but I had spent some time on his website a while back, and his comments on 'fanmail' weren't encouraging at all. :(

We've had a former BioWare designer comment on ME3, which amounted more or less to: "you were supposed to make a computer game, folks, you failed; that ending doesn't work as the ending of a game". But that guy, to my knowledge, had quit quite some time ago. Karpyshyn probably wouldn't 'burn the bridges' as easily.


From what I know of him, he doesn't sound like the nicest person on Bioware. BUT he isn't the whole team, so...still holding the line :whistle:


It runs in gaming studios lol.  A LOT of Type A personalities in the gaming industry, it takes the drive and a touch of ego to put up with the long hours and never pleasing -everyone-.  I really hope that they step back for a bit and realize they could come out of this looking amazing if they took the position as an advocate for the community.. if they stay on the "Our ending is art, you just don't understand it" side, especially after having already criticized their own author they hired to write the novels and then changing them, if they ever DO come around everyone will just assume they got muzzled and they'll lose what credibility they had :P

Anyone else notice a shift in Bioware's tone over the past 24 hours? This retweet is just the latest example. :-(

He's one of the people who retweeted the article link.

 No need to take any tweets personally. Guy has a right to say what he wants, just like people here.Regarding any kind of numbers take a look at the current stats r3stats.net/graphs
That fb curve is going up fast. 

Anyhoo, stay positive and civil. The one who starts shouting always looses.


Impressive..

Keep it civil, keep it up and we will succeed

@BioEvilChris Nerves are a little raw on all sides and many see the linked article as dismissive and belittling.

One Sidenote:

Its logical there is no response atm. Most of the people who worked on that game are on Vacation. This is normal, cause they work 10-14 hours a day for several months.
So we will here something in about 2 weeks.
I know a graphic Designer from GOTHIC, He told me ,after they finished the game, they had about 6 weeks vacation.

Guys, why would Bioware not released an ending DLC? Can someone come up with a reason besides "they don't want to"? :huh:
I feel like it is in their best interest to release it. Especially if it's paid; they will make tons of money not only from the DLC itself, but also because ME3 sales will go back to normal (because ppl who didn't want to play will be playing now, with the new and awesome ending)

Don't know if these were posted yet, he doesn't really say anything that hasn't already been said, but it's still enjoyable, so I figured I'd share :).

Only news that is new today I believe is Ending issue is on front of Yahoo news. It however is more about a player filing an FTC compliant.  http://games.yahoo.c...-173411384.html

So, writing my very first post in the forums (been lurking for a while though) only because of the horribleness that is the ME3 ending. Did not see that one coming. At all. Guess I'm off to join the european fleet now.

I don't know about you, but I live in America so I have had zero respect for the media from the beginning. I'm just happy we're getting positive press at all.

However, I did have a high respect for Bioware and its employees and that has taken a significant drop.

I still play the multiplayer because I am going to get some use out of the 80$ I spent on the stupid thing. They can use those statistics as a false hope for DLC sales, but I can guarantee they'll never get anything from me again.


Do what I do - make characters with - RetakeME - Holdtheline

Etc......:)  can enjoy - and still spread the message

Unfortunately, "they don't want to" is all the reason they need.

They may think that in the long run it won't matter.

And they'll be wrong.
