Wow..page 2010? At this speed we are going to reach the year of ME before they fix the ending.

By the way, seeing twitter, it seems likely they won't say anything until at least 1 month, we must hold the line.



I'm being as patient as I know how but I'm not waiting a full month before I make my call.

I contacted Amazon.com [US] and I have an RMA in hand for a full refund.  However my time limit for the return is basically April 6.   If BW doesn't make a definitive announcement with very specific details I'm just going to return my CE.  The $ I get back goes to charity.

Note:  If BW later releases an ending that [imho] matches their pre-launch statements then I will rebuy the game, all DLC, the ending DLC, and recommend the game to every single gamer I know.  I will be their best friend in terms of word of mouth.

So with everyone talking about ME3 internationally, I decided to do a little research to see what's going on on my own country (which I wouldn't know, since I don't live there) and apparently ME got attention in Brazil too...but mostly because one of the developers is Brazilian. <_<

Yep.. [smilie]../../../images/forum/emoticons/unsure.png[/smilie]

Some podcast here and there but nothing concrete .... but we are here ...  even in lower scale we still hold the line.. 


I would write to the Brazilian newspaper like O Globo but my keyboard doesn't have the accents and I haven't written anything in formal Portuguese for at least 5 years...:whistle:
Maybe I'll make my mom write it. 

There are probably more Brazilian ME lovers than Asian(Japanese) ones (mostly because they tend to play JRPG and we tend to play western games)

In ME2, it's possible to sail through the ending with your entire squad alive and well. It's also possible for some of them to die - in fact, even Shepard can die, if we want to arrange things that way. In spite of the fact that ME2 really only has one or two 'real' endings, the amount of control we are given makes it impossible to describe our own endgame experience in terms of 'I chose option A, B, or C' - we actuallyhave to describe how we got there. We must define the tasks we assigned to whom, who was successful and who wasn't and why. A lot of people, myself included, really really love that ability to tailor-craft an ending that suits our taste. We would like this same feeling of freedom in the ME3 endings as well.

I used to be one of those guys that was obnoxiously elitist about talking down to ME2 from the viewpoint of ME1. How much of a bare bones RPG it was, how much of the soul of the series was taken away, and so on.

But ME3's ending has helped me realized, in an almost perverse irony, just how fantastic ME2 was - how they hit all of the most important parts, right to the finish. I appreciate 2 more now than I ever have, and I'm disappointed in 3 all the more because of the fact that they had shown in 2 they can handle the "sacrifice" ending with both meaningful impact and variety. Instead we got neither.

*sigh*...

Posted this in another thread which is now totally buried, but thought it was worth reposting here.  Seen a few threads popping up with people apparently squabbling over the question of whether we, as a group, do and/or should want a 'happy ending':

I think this point kind of gets muddled sometimes, but best I can explain my view is like this: I definitely, absolutely want a happy ending for my own 'main' Shepard. So I definitely, absolutely want that to be an option.

What we don't want is an 'automatic' Happy Ending that everyone gets by default, barring a major screw-up. No, we want a variety of endings depending on how we've played, the choices we've made, and hey - maybe based somewhat on personal taste, why not?

In ME2, it's possible to sail through the ending with your entire squad alive and well. It's also possible for some of them to die - in fact, even Shepard can die, if we want to arrange things that way. In spite of the fact that ME2 really only has one or two 'real' endings, the amount of control we are given makes it impossible to describe our own endgame experience in terms of 'I chose option A, B, or C' - we actuallyhave to describe how we got there. We must define the tasks we assigned to whom, who was successful and who wasn't and why. A lot of people, myself included, really really love that ability to tailor-craft an ending that suits our taste. We would like this same feeling of freedom in the ME3 endings as well.


Feel free to add your thoughts.



Exactly -- the chance for a good ending should be there, but not default and certainly not the only ending.  From "happy" (galaxy burning, yay...) to, well, lose, in-between there we have "The Ultimate Sacrifice".

My thoughts, any way.  It was sold as being our story, was it not?

Hm. If I would rememember my Paypal now. To bad I can not pay with a normal "Bill" or "Pay when delivered" over here in germany, I would instantly buy a  t-shirt for me and one for my girlfriend (Because I demand she helps me.)!

No serious, too bad.

Oh gosh, the 'explore Normandy crash site' mission from ME2 has been one of the most heart wrenching one's to me. The atmosphere was just something out of this world, how you could only hear the emptiness and Shepard's breathing...

ANd now it only reminds me how far they have fallen... :crying:

To be fair, they didn't listen then.  The commenter said they would NOT like that ending :wizard:

If you guys get the time can some of you pop over the the ME3 suggestions thread and add your thoughts if you haven't already. We're doing brilliantly on this thread but I think we need to also keep at it on the one they are supposedly "listening to". Thanks :o)
