I would totally be content if the ending was extended just by having a magical unicorn on a tricycle came in slap the kid, rez Sheppard, followed by a ceremony of your whole crew (what ever is left) in a pub drinking.

lol now that would be an ending I would love to see.

Never buying a Bioware product again. B)


This for me is a bit bittersweet(hah, ironic) because I would, on principle, have to do the same. I would also have to unsub from TOR. That would be the hardest thing. I don't really want to, I have friends that play it. On my personal principles though, I wouldn't be able to abide by their business practices and would have to swear them off(possibly EA as well). Of course, with how bad of a taste it has left in my mouth, I'm not even really sure if I want to play video games much anymore. Bit ironic really.

How come half the gaming sites are screaming the ending will be changed/extended?
When apparently nothing is confirmed?

etc etc


Nothing is confirmed. But the more sites and mass media talk about the better chance for new endings.

Sometimes the more you repeat something the more likely it is to become :)

well i belive its media /pr. they are preasuring bioware. whichi s good for us :)

With what i've seen of Bioware lately, i wouldn't be surprised if they used a cheap cop out, like Shepard just saying " You guys need to go, i'll do it myself" at the last moment...

And they don't need to explain EVERYTHING :P. I'm sure they think it's fine that TIM just appears, and it makes sense that Anderson gets beamed somewhere else.

I mean, they apparently don't want to change it, so they'll just... explain it. In the same way they made the ending we have, i suppose.

One thing's for sure, we'll always have some good ol' Space Magic :wizard: involved.


Now why won't they change it?  One word: pride. 

I'm almost ready to give up on Bioware and its "art"

I've actually been wondering something, what are we going to say/do if they don't make new endings that make sense?

Take your business elsewhere.

Logging out for the night guys and gals.

I'll continue holding the line tomorrow, but meanwhile it will be in my sleep.

Cheers.

Make sure you cast a vote at this poll: http://www.gamefaqs.com/


Is it sad that I am enjoying watching that poll move?


Only if it's sad that I keep checking to see if our numbers are going  up faster than the no's.


I suspect forgery or botting in that poll. Or ignorance and trolling.

If our movement won't bring any changes, why don;t we just make up new endings.
For traumatized ME players in the future.
I don't know if any of you is familiar with Visual Novel concept.
We could make a Visual Novel that would ask about players choices, and alter the script so it would fit this particular Shepard.
If we knew how Save Files are built we could even get those direcly from them (PC version only though)

Wait. Does that mean I have(should) to stop playing The Sims? :huh:

Noooo! What have you done with my life, ME3? 

I would never be able to play any Bioware game without remembering how bad ME3 ending was. I can't play DA:O because whenever I get to the ending, all I can think is how they could make such an amazing ending for DA:O and then mess up ME3 ending.

They don't understand the fact that even if any art is IP, it doesn't mean that any IP is art by default.

Sorry to be quite but I took today to recharge my batteries for holding the line. With the Gamefaq poll I suggest we post it to the Facebook to get people's attention there.

Im reallistic, and i doubt it's all about pride :P

Sure, there might be some of it, but it's mainly because all of their DLC is already far in progress, while it would be a development hell to start a completely new DLC for new endings since they didn't have plans for that.

I mean, they would need to start a new planning group, while the rest is already in the programming stage. It's the kind of things that tend to inflate the cost of production, and EA/Bioware don't like that at all.

From RetakeME3's Facebook:

"There's been a lot of news that Bioware may very well be making a new ending (or expanding the current). But we are far from finished. Even if they do it, it doesn't mean that it will be good.

They could slap together a 5 minute epilogue, and say "Here you go, now shut up".

Until we get an ending worthy of Mass Effect we will Hold The Line!"

Well, I would never force anyone to stick to the same mentality I have. I wouldn't really want people to unless it's part of who they are as a person. Hell, I would encourage people to keep playing other BioWare games they enjoy, including TOR. Just my personal convictions would force me to stop playing them.

2nd squadron of the Dutch Fleet reporting in.

Be sure to vote on this poll!
http://www.gamefaqs.....html?poll=4666 

It reeks of a fixed poll, for why would all those who disagree with us suddenly vote on Gamefaqs and not on other polls? It matters not - vote for Shepard!

Hold the line!

Humboldt nightowl reporting in to hold the line!

You know -- the more I think about it, the more I feel frustrated with the current endings. A lot of people, much more eloquent, and witty than myself, have pointed out plenty of valid, solid reasons as to why. But that doesn't take the sting out of it when I watch something on Youtube and find a ME3 ad pop up before the video.

I see all of these great scenes, these wonderfully crafted, intensive, emotive moments and I remember just how *fun* and *engaging* this series is. Only to remember the exact opposite feelings; the rubberband of emotions as I snap back to the frustration and confusion that marked the endings.

I haven't played the game since I beat it. Every time I think about starting up with ME1 again I lose all drive to finish the entire saga. The endings ruin it.

And my god am I getting sick of all the PR double-talk. I hate having to analyze everything one of Biowares reps says, and the subsequent Vizzini/iocane scene that plays out in my head of, "is this double-talk? do they know I'll think this is double-talk and they're actually playing me into over scrutinizing what they say?"

All frustrations and venting aside, I am damn proud of this movement and what it has accomplished. Regardless of whether we achieve our goals or not, the people in this thread have been nothing but intelligent, well-mannered, and sharp as rapiers. The charity drive has garnered thousands of dollars, and still grows daily. It's a wonderful thing to watch -- all of this.

Good job guys. I'm proud to count myself among you.

Well said, sir. We will hold the line!

/salute

Also, the Princess Bride reference got a good giggle from me, so thank you for that. That's the feeling I get from the PR spinning. Not to mention the Catalyst, as well. What kind of cyclical logic is that?

I've been waiting for this game for years... was ridiculously excited to play it...

And now I spend more time on this forum reading about how screwed up the ending is.

*sigh* Holding the Line with a heavy heart tonight.

Welcome aboard solider. *passes an Avenger over* Here it's dangerous to hold the line alone take this. It's a long wait game we have to keep the faith, we must keep it together. The longer we can hold the better.

You ain't the only one. I'd say it's the same for me, and probably many others here...

Spending my time here instead of finishing all my other Shep playthrough, for being here is, in the end, worth much more.

if you want to vote in a german magazine poll,

http://www.gamestar....=13573&status=1

you need to pick :

"Super, jetzt bekomme ich, was ich will." (nice, now ill get what i want), or

"Ja, denn BioWare ist auf seine Fans angewiesen." (yes, cause bioware depends on their fans)

if you want the ending to be changed!
