I love how in the Wall srt journal article the guy says

"And boy did they get mad."

I just had a freakin flashback to a week ago where despite the courtesy and civility people were practically out for blood. I could throw a manequin that said Bioware in the middle of this and it'd be torn limb from limb in just a few seconds.

Wall Street article?

I posted this in another thread, but I want to get people's opinion about whether this would have been a good epilogue for ME3. Sorry for the wall of text in advance, but I think this is better than the Stargazer and speculate stuff.

Here's what I think would be a good example of an epilogue:

If everything goes wrong, I will headcannon to this.

I've already accept the indoc theory as fact in my head. It's the only way I can continue playing the game for my achievements

why in God's name calls us someone with the nickname "Snagglepuss" "whiney kids"...?
Goochie, goochie gooo

Sometimes I feel like Forbes has insider or that they are watching every move we make...should I be concerned? 


Btw, I thought the cupcake idea was great.

Some kind of SUPER DLC will be great. Or unlit a small one who "fix" the holes.

Good evening everyone.

How is the line holding?

A little bit breaking. Older people leave, new people come. It seems that all of this is really grinding at people.

I have to say myself that, after putting some things together with a friend, I think I have to extend my line. As much as I believe we write history, some facts don't add up to this beeing the real ending. I think we all were so discouraged by it that we let our rage come to the daylight without even knowing what we were doing. But many quotes and posts tell us actually that there is a slight chance we are wrong.

So, the line isn't holding that well anymore.

still here lurking and holding

 Well, if you listen to some people, if BW doesn't deliver a new ending this could be some of the things that might be heard at Bioware HQ. All meant in a spirit of fun I'll add;

'Self-entitled whiny twelve year olds incoming!'

'Help...Help! Oh my God we have some entitled gamers waddling towards us! Quick...walk briskly away before they wheeze all over us!'

'Oh my God! The vocal minority has resorted to to throwing action figures at us!'

'Which of the escape tubes are we meant to use? The red, green or blue one?'
'Doesn't matter, they all lead to the same place'

'DLC! WE HAVE DL...AHHGH!'

'Oh, more art critics'

'I'm afraid management is in the midst of a rapid, pre-planned and dynamic restructure of our core assets and can't directly comment on your requests at this time'
'You mean, they are running away?'
"Errm, I'm not authorised to talk about that. But I can tell you about our new and exciting DLC...'

'Let them eat DLC'

'Customers...I see no customers'
*Sadly* 'Yeah, that's sort of the point sir'

'Quick, throw a couple of twinkie bars in their direction...We'll escape while they are distracted'

'Have you ever danced with the devil by the pale moon light?'
'Well, there was that meeting with the EA board...'

'OK, so...*coughs* how badly has this situation hurt us?'
'Let me put it this way sir, if we were a country we'd have a larger national debt than the USA'

'Well, that sorted them out didn't it? They'll never complain about our products again..HA!'
'Or sadly buy them...'

Don't know if it's already been posted but.........

Just read this from Yahtzee over in the escapist and i will let you lot make up your own minds from what he says in his extras bit. He does touch on the whole closure issue with a set of still's (like the endings in DA:O) but doesn't think we deserver the endings to be re-written........ makes me wonder if has looked at the Indoc Theory stuff currently bouncing around all over the place.

Oh and also Moviebob has done something about the whole ME3 ending stuff as well on the escapist and i'm sure he will insult our intelligence levels about this whole thing and call us a bunch off whiny children.

Still havent seen much in the way of news about the Cupcakes from the people over at IGN and Penny Arcade.

There was an article on the ME3 ending on the Wall Street Journals online pages yesterday.

Probably because they're mad they aren't getting any.

Yep, most people I see when I come on here are here on and off most days so we're pretty stable. Just being patient and waiting for when we have something concrete to go on.

My feeling at this point is calm collected rage. If all they say is "herp de derp, mp dlc and some side mission dlc + explanation of ghost dad/ star child" at pax, then I will never buy their products again.

This is the second time I have been burned with pre-orders from them in a row. The first was DA II. Definately not pre-ordering anything from them again until they get their house in order. Even then....you really can't trust their word, or that of the game media, in order to make an informed purchasing decision. That means no special bonus items.

On the plus side. There would be no encouragement to buy new or buy early. I can wait for one of the regular 50% saled on Origins.

Yeah the line hasn't gotten any weaker, it's actually stronger with Wall Street and Forbes helping. Now what most people are doing is, like is stated above, lurking. I am from time to time because everything has been discussed and we are just awaiting PAX. Now if nothing happens at PAX you can trust to see a lot of people back and not happy. People need a break and to do their RL responsibilities; I am a college student so I can get on more then a person who has kids. Simple as that...just waiting for PAX.

Sometimes word will do an autosave itself so that when you reopen the program it should have a bar come up on the side with what you were working on previously. Doesn't always happen though.

I use Seagate's data recovery sotware (https://services.sea...iysoftware.aspx). It's dirt cheap at $99 and even allows you to scan the drive for free before you buy to see if there is anything worth recovering.

Sry dont know if this is posted.. But it`s an great article, you should read:D

http://doycetesterma...tistic-process/

this is really worth a read. 
and to quote "
If you create something, and your readers hope that what you just gave them was, in reality, an “it was a dream all along” ending, because that would be better than what you wrote, you seriously. ****ed. up." 
it nearly had me crying and laughing at the same time. 

and back again. just found out that the project i thought we had to finish till thursday, is only due in two weeks or something. pfew. 

so, how's the line holding going?

[Vertrix]

endings suck. I hope they will release a new ending dlc, cause its the most disappoing and senseless ending i've ever seen.

[TumblingBumblebee]

After a few days being sick in the back lines... I'm back! 

The ending was so bad I think it contributed into giving me a really bad gastritis <.<

Keep it civil and hold the line!

As Lord Costantino said, a lot of people are lurking now that the PAX event is supposed to bring official responses. I generally don't feel its necessary to post something unless I have something I HAVE to say.

See this, BioWare? This is how you make choices matter. This is how you make the players matter. It's how you allow for replayability, and encourage use of your otherwise dubiously necessary multiplayer.

What might have been.

Still holding the line, just lurking like a crocodile.

@Lord Constantino

That was a joke lol
I'm glad Forbes and Wall Street Journal is helping us.

And yeah, I'm usually here, but not always posting.
