Guys, have we won? Or not quite? What is the opinion of the Retake on this?


In my opinion, we just lost.

No. BioWare strongly believes in the team’s artistic vision for the end of this arc of the Mass Effect franchise. The extended cut DLC will expand on the existing endings, but no further ending DLC is planned.

Allow to me to embelish a bit and but a sarcastic spin on this:

"No. BioWare strongly believes in the team's divine inspiration for the end of the gospel according to Casey.  The extended cut DLC will expand on the existing parables, but no changes to the gospel are planned."

There are HUNDREDS of plotholes and questions those final 10 minutes introduced. If they really want to stick to the current, extremely nonsensical endings, they're going to need at least a few hours to go down the list of grievances one by one.

-snip-

I know Bioware is at least TRYING. They may be trying in the wrong direction, but at least they're trying. Props to them for that... though if they want to give true clarity, they're in trouble.

They introduced more plotholes in the final ten minutes than there was actual story in the entire three games combined. It might take a whole 'nother game just to "clarify" every problem the ending introduced.


Holy wall of text Galador! Just kidding, that wall of text tells you everything about how truly bad it ended up being. I don't know how a writer, professional or not, could overlook so many goddamn plot holes, leaps of logic, and important unanswered questions. Let alone a team of writers. And numerous other devs. Didn't anyone just stop and go "Wait, what?"

And yet you have to respect their decision (doesn't mean you have to be happy about it, i sure as hell am not).

They made their choice and will live with the consequences.


I understand what you are saying. I just don't think you can respect someone who is sticking their fingers in their ears and saying "I can hear you la-la-la."

I'm sorry BioWare, but that's just not going to cut it for me. You can't "extend" on or "explain" what is broken beyond repair; fix space magic with more space magic. If AI kid stays, then I'm out, and I'm taking my money with me.

They will try and fail.

And no one will be present to play it, let alone BUY it...

 Does anyone have the link to the PAX group? I kind of want to see if they can ask to the ME team about something. 
Please?

The PAX site is: http://east.paxsite.com/
But Mike Gamble and Jessica Merizan are both active on twitter atm and they are both at PAX.

My good young Sir.. In this type of skirmish, there are no winners. There's only compromises wherein everybody loses something. However, from what is apparent this mornin,Bioware will not compromise at all, so for the moment we lose, but in the longrun Bioware will also lose as its customer base dwindles to a point that is unsustainable.. So you see, in the end, we all lose, and EA walks away with the cash..

Btw since this seems to be coming up...

If in the extended endings they have Shepard alive, and the crew gets "un-marooned-or-random-tropical-world" etc....that is changing the endings, technically. So they are just unwilling to admit that they ****ed up and are gonna try and appease us by tweaking the A,B,C cluster **** ending we got

So now I feel depressed, my brother woke me with the news... I just wish tomorrow they'll give some kind of explanation, if not, I'm done with BW, not more buying their games, this is all...

I love Folk Metal. I just wish Korpiklaani had more songs in English. That kinda goes for a lot of folk metal bands out there as well but hey it still sounds awesome even if i have no idea what theyre saying

Thank you!

But I meant the people from the Retake movement who will be at PAX. They have a group on BSN and they will be at the panel, but I can't find the group 
:P

@MrBlazenGlazen yes but with some sacrifices depending on the end you chose. Ending is never perfect but Shep/crew reunited is possible :)


It doesn't change that Star child 'artistic' idea is ridiculous.
I think I'm depressed. :crying:


What is even worse is that they had a perfectly good ending that Drew left for them before leaving BW.
But they chose not to use it and gave us the atrocity that the "starchild" and the "inspiring and uplifting" ending were.

Mmm, write this down:
popler (strawberry liqueur) combined with drop of vodka, blueberry liqueur and orange flavoured soda is actually pretty good angst-drink. Tastes kinda like strawberry flavoured winegum sweets from the childhood, before one had to grow up and suck it up, no matter how disappointed one is. This is one of the few good things that have come out of this mess of an ending.

 I miss those days I could cry because something didn't go as I planned, when I could throw temper tantrums and things would always work out in the end. Now, instead of that, I'm drinking and making fool of myself on a game forum. Here's a real, physical toast to that, growing up, yet never becoming an adult who could just shrug this off :wizard: 


Oh, I could use some booze right now... Unfortunately I can't.... :?
