]By paying for it, Bioware or EA, I'm betting on the latter, decided to give minimum closure in a free DLC, it becomes difficult to protest without being called whiney after accepting a give away, as I already stated, what we are left with at the end of the day is control over our own spending, I'm holding off purchasing any other DLC they put out until I've seen the free one in the summer, I don't want to go through my games again only to end up feeling numb.

Just get the Free DLC see what happens. If it's a ton of crap , assest and every god damn game choice still doesn't count for nothing then don't buy a product from BioWare ever again.  All we need to do next is create another epic forum post and just have people who still hated the 'closure' endings with thanks Bioware but you will no longer have me as a customer.

But we will have fan fiction to fall back on for our endings so here's hoping to that .

Finally
I'm sure losing 50k+ people is going to hurt them more in the long run than what this game has done to most of us in the past 4 weeks.

Still Holding the Line

NOOOOOOOOOOO!  :crying::crying::crying::crying:

[Mr Chr15topher]

I am actually shaking with anger. Cannot believe that Bioware would ignore all the great ideas that the community has given them. Especially after they said that the fans helped them to create this game. Here comes another sleepless night.

[lavacaverns]

I am on the fence with this, i just can't shake the feeling they will f*ck this up like the ending.
Prob announce some payed dlc to go along with this "free" dlc >.>

That's very true. Maybe now that we have an answer, I can at least get back to writing and not sitting here waiting for news...

[Teleraine]

Im going to keep an open mind about all this Extended cut stuff but as a fact I do not like the words Clarify and clarification.

While I keep an open mind I will admit that im not gonna really trust what bioware say as much in the future though im kinda limited for games with as much story depth.

[Worhan]

There goes the universe..

[bas_kon]

well, I'm not interested in a director's cut explaining how all my friend s betrayed me so no more ME for me.

Yeah, my view has basically return to that, I remembered the post I made about them calling us "stupid" by releasing a clarification DLC, unfortunately I cannot now get it out of my head "too stupid to get it!"

 Wait. I just woke up and I'm so confused.
Let me see if I got this straight: they're releasing an extended cut? 

Aparentemente só alguns vídeos "explicando" o que aconteceu... Uma bosta, mas eu não esperava muito mais do que isso mesmo. Tomara que nenhum dos moderadores fale português... aeuhauh

Apparently, just some videos "clarifying" what happened... Sad, but I wasn't expecting much more than that.

Hhuahua, a beleza de falar português. Se eu nao me engano, so tem uma pessoa na equipe que eh brasileiro, e ele nao fica aqui nao

This is so depressing. I just hope they give us at least the "investigate" on the dialogue wheel when talking to the kid. 

Nós não vamos desistir, vamos?


We will fight! This is NOT what we want!

[VivaLaWhatsername]

Oh this is just awesome, I feel physically sick, and my stomach hurts like hell (sorry)
I know I shouldn't let this crap bother me this much, but I have always been a really huge worryier (sp?) I literally worry about everything, from small stuff to huge stuff.

This wouldn't be the first time my actual health has been affected by it, I haven't worried much over anything for over a year and then this happened....now we have even more crap to deal with in their free poo shiner.

*Sorry for this post I just needed to vent and you guys are always so nice*

[Debi-Tage]

Let's not jump to conclusions everyone about what this will and will not entail. We really have no details yet. The statement, as annoying as it was sticking to the artistic integrity line, was a press release. I have a lot of misplaced anger and am defensive to anything BW does at this point because of the situation we are in now. Let's just try to calm down and see what exactly this means. We are being watched and our reaction really does matter. I am personally holding the rage in because I know it will do nothing for our goal to go all nuts at this point.

Well, remember that we're just "stupid and whiny children", so it makes sense that they have to explain things to us, right?

Really BioWare... <_<

 I knew it once they announced something, everyone would show up again lol

I wonder why they decided to announce it on the day before PAX...to inform us and prepare us for what they would announce at PAX? 


I'm now jealous of every Fallout 3 fan...how did they get a completely new ending? 

Because EA won America's worst company with the consumer magazine yesterday. This is also why the statement came from EA rather than Bioware.

FO3's ending was changed because Bethesda listened to their customers, and paid attention to what they had problems with. Bioware seems to have heard what they wanted to hear.

[Plummy]

Another thought does this mean they will tell us why we had the shepard N7 breathe at the end of good destroyer ending? Or was that something to throw in there so we would end up buying ME4 even though this was the END OF SHEPARD AS WE KNOW IT! Plot holes hurt my head

[Generic Name]

Looks like I'll be freeing up some GB's on my computer. I for one have no interest in a clarification of space magic.

[-PG-Skyre]

Us- "Give us endings that make sense!"
Them- "Here, we just extended the ones you already have problems with"
Me- *facepalm*

Whoever is making these choices really needs to re-evaluate their career choices, cause come on...this is just asking for trouble IF they are just extending what we already have.
Plus, lets face it, extending on the current pile of c**p will just mean they are adding to the already plot hole ruined ending to make it plot chasmed ending (see what I did there?).

Oh wells, Guild Wars might be a better option, or the Elder Scrolls MMO that is coming. ME3, TOR and DA2...I think BW has finally been completely EAed.

Maybe. Although, telling us that would also mean they'd have to fix the problem with the single-player only EMS (being that it's impossible to get that scene without MP or some form of external content like Infiltrator or the Datapad app).

[Kateish]

Oh well, hey at least it's free!
I wasn't really expecting them to even do that honestly...

But I shall give them the benefit of the doubt and hope they clarify what they mean about, uh, well... Clarifying.

a *hug* for you as well  

i'm really sorry.. affected me as well, but mostly with loss of appetite, sleeping way too much and other funny signs of a depression. :/ but don't worry and don't give up, we'll find a way through this. you can always hit me up with a message if you feel like it. 


but as for everything else. if this turns out to 'not' be what we want, i guess we'll need some new ideas to express our views and ideas about the ending. we've turned it around and decided to do something good and donated to charity, we sent dozens of mails and letters and we even gave them cupcakes. 

what now?

Refuse to purchase EA/BioWare products I suppose. Also you shouldn't download the "free" (probably already on the disc) clarification.
