Do we simply say, forget it and give up, or do we keep pressing them to change the ending?


I thought that was what they were planning on doing?

In this gameinformer article it says "BioWare says it's working on game content that will hopefully bring closure and clarity to the ending of Mass Effect 3. "


I don't want closure or clarity, I want an ending that reflects my decisions and one that insures the continuation of the Mass Effect universe. None of that can happen with the relays gone and the sword fleet trapped in Sol. I honestly cannot see how they can 'explain' it away without clarifying everyone is dead and boned. And that will NOT help them any.

Anyone think Bioware will be stupid enough to announce new DLC promising fixed endings, on April 1st?


April 1st is a Sunday, so it's doubtful.

PAX starts on the 6th, so we'll likely hear something then (if not before if PAX is anything like E3 where nothing is a secret).

At one time, I wouldn't think they would be. But knowng the endings, I could see them come out with this big elaborate leak sort of like the "supposed" 4chan one that makes all of us go crazy... and then say April Fools! If the endings weren't as ridiculous and horrid as they are, I might've laughed. But now, I just want answers and no space magic.

They would be smarter to do it on 2nd or just before PAX but I have a feeling they plan to do it actually AT PAX


Man.. the Penny Arcade guys are not having a good month hahaha... first we hijack their charity right out from under them, and get it 2.5% of its total annual income in a week.... Now we've basically indirectly hijacked their gaming convention to announce something they strongly disagree with.

I'm almost waiting on them to cancel EA's booth haha... though I suspect EA pays a large amount of money for said booth and draws a lot of press/fans.. so that's like shooting yourself in the foot... mind you they already did that with the charity drive according to the media.

I'd feel bad if I didn't get the feeling that the founders (or at least one of them) think their opinion is more important than ours.

Oh well, not my problem, let EA PR/Marketing deal with them hahaha Image IPB,  It took us holding the line for nearly 3 weeks with tens of thousands.  We'll see how a guy with some media contacts and ad revenue does against them Image IPB

I would never buy another Bioware game again ...at all.   Thats is them calling me stupid and saying that I can't understand Hudson "Artistic Vison"  and its an insult to me integellence and frankly  I don't have time for it.  I and many over are niether dumb or blind. Bioware has a rather educated fan base... matter of fact most gamers are for the most part pretty smart and well educated.  

They do that and  I'm sticking with Square Enix , Atlus, and picking CDPR I hear good things about the  Witcher. People talk about JRPG's up and down but the one thing Final Fantasy, Persona , or  the Tales Series have never done  as cliched as they may be is they never have treated their gamers and fans like idoits.   Bioware doing  that would be treating thier  customers and fan  base like idoits... and that is a no. no,

not sure on that one to be honest but i wouldnt be buying the dlc.


I think if that happens, all hell will break loose.

Bioware can't be that clueless. I mean, all over the forums, all over the internet, midea, sites, etc. everyone is saying we want a new ending, and not some extra pre-ending DLC.

I can even admit the possibility that Bioware will announce a new pre-end DLC (one they were already working on) as long as they also address the ending situation. If not, i fear for what is to come and I fear for BW's future...

/Salute

and holding the line..

I'm curious... ME3's endings were so bad, I'm curious if it'll become the de facto example of bad endings in the future. Like "jumping the shark", "nuking the fridge", and "punching the boulder".

What would ME3's be?
"Exploding the Relays"?
"Starving the Fleet"?
"Unplugging the EDI"?
"Marauding the Shields"?
"Buying the DLC"?
"Picking the Color"?
"Negating the Choices"?
"Virmired the Endings"?
"Renegade the Closure"?
"Crashing the Normandy"?
"Violating the Starchild"?
"Elcored our Emotional Engagement"?
"Photoshopped the Quarian"?
"Killing the Codex"?
"Slept with the Ardat-Yakshi"?
"Critical Mission Failure of Logic"?
"Indoctrinated the Shepard"?

Help me out here.

"Obeying the kid"

And I'll believe they're not going to troll us when they stop sidestepping negative feedback and promise us more than a clarification of the ending, just because I learn why they made a bad ending, doesn't make it suck any less.

interpreting their statements i doubt, that they will give us full explanation. i am pretty sure they will keep this ending somehow open and kinda "full of speculation " reagrding the future of the galaxy... which is not bad for me. but maybe the fate of our beloved charcters and maybe also whole alien races might be more clearly go in a certain direction. plus the choices we made might more affect the final outcome.

no one would dare call bond an idiot

If they have to explain those endings, they are effectivly calling people idiots, besides, I don't want to be on the line when the sh*t hits the fan, currently we have a bit of fun with this and I don't mind reminding people to remain polite, can you imagine if they used an explanation for the ending, the next time I remind folk to remain polite they'd all lynch me!


I am so with you on that, I am willing to bet it would be entirely more ugly than I want.  I would still hold the line in my own way, that would be not buying anything BW or EA related.  Posting my blog - something that I've never done before and this is the only thing to get me to do it. And writing.  

Well I have to thank Bioware for that, I'm writing both fiction and arguments again because of this.  Not sure if that's a good or a bad thing /sigh

"Marauding the Shields"?     100%
"Photoshopped the Quarian"?      100%
"Critical Mission Failure of Logic"?      50%
"Indoctrinated the Shepard"?      50%

Help me out here.


These four. They all represent the game well. Marauder and Tali are obvious but the next two depends on what Bioware will do with the ending.

You could also say... pulling a rabbit out of a hat, then butchering the rabbit.... Only to use more (space) magic to bring it back to life..... *hint hint Bioware*
