I think that was a very dangerous joke for Priestly to make. I'm not religious but a comment like that could get backlash from those who are.

agreed, was a very dangerous joke to make

Nah, I don't think it' dangerous in that way, it's not offensive.. but it's definitely condescending.

Played through the first game, and am nearly done on 2 now, Dark energy popping up in every other conversation is really pissing me off, must be the biggest red herring in any story ever now lol. Looks like Chekovs guns are really for display only this time!

Well it's definitely that too but I don't think those who hold their faith very dear to their hearts will appreciate having the sacrifice of Jesus compared to the ending of a video game...

I think we can agree that what he's done is in very poor taste, yes.

But Jesus on the cross was not the end of the Bible. Jesus Christ (<--- That is a good pun)

[chmarr]

even the ending of the sopranos made more sense than the ME3 ending
and we all know just how bad the sopranos ending was ... that was so bad some ppl actually did kill themself
and the ending of ME3 has made some ppl here clinicly depressed and i think someone said they tried to kill themself, so yeah ME3 ending is WORSE than the sopranos ending

[Mokiki]

Finally I'm allowed to post just want to say hello and that I'm holding the line with you guys

Yep, I doubt it would have been so popular if that was it , Then again many people over the years have had no qualms about making revisions to the book.

Her last tweet - about 30 minutes ago

*grins* while I've tweeted her to confirm why she's upset - *adds this to the list that goes with this theory*.......

I would say - indoctrinate theory hasn't been disproven or proven = but as I say in my theory - its what they wanted to do - for both of us.......this is getting more interesting to sit and watch as time goes on

is the fact shes angry a good thing? like maybe he said something he shouldn't have?

Glad to see Priestly is in full on dick mode. Also funny reference, but at least the Bible actually explains what happens after the crucifixion. the next page doesn't say:

"Jesus has now become a legend, expand more upon that legend in upcoming paper addendums to the Bible"

[BBCH]

Not religious, but not liking the jab at the community. Despite what some think, this is serious to us.

So it wasn't an interview, even though Patrick says it was an interview.

Interesting perspective I suppose.

Probably not, she's always been one of the ones who has been on the side of the fans or at least helping us be heard.

I honestly believe Hudson and Walters may be holding on to their idea like it's one of those movies. And that in a few years we, the fans, will see their true genius. Because in the case of Blade Runner, this is exactly what happened. Ridley Scott had to splice in a random happy ending when test screening fans were confused and depressed by it's true ending. Though after time passed and the ending was restored, people began to really appreciate the film. The fans spent over 20 years speculating about the true nature of the ending before Ridley Scott came out and told them. In this case, the crazy fans that pieced together a bunch of clues from the movie to make an insane theory... well, they turned out to be right. Sound familiar? lol. I kid, because I don't for a second trust Walters and Hudson to have come up with something so intricate.

But seriously, someone needs to go wake these guys the hell up and explain to them that they haven't made another Blade Runner. This is another Matrix: Revolutions. The one that had fans scoffing at it's awfulness. The one with some BS about a pseudo-scientific sacrifice from the hero which miraculously causes the killer robot ships to just stop attacking.  Also having something about a catalyst/architect who always secretly controlled the ominous bad guys, and could never manage to make a lick of sense.

That is what they have on their hands. Another Matrix: Revolutions. The movie that totally destroyed a franchise. The sooner they realize this, the better.

This isn't Inception, and this isn't Blade Runner. Or Fight Club, with its very awesome ending. The cinematics were botched the moment Casper got into the screen. I actually prefer BR's happy ending, though I understand the original one as well.

And honestly, I'm a fan of the cyberpunk literary genre; I appreciate bittersweet endings. I don't think I've ever felt so depressed as when I finished reading Mona Lisa Overdrive, but it was a great book and I appreciated the story a lot (Hey, Bioware, maybe you could hire William Gibson to write game scripts for you guys!) -- more so than after I finished reading Snow Crash. Also a good book, but it doesn't end with the same forlorn, bittersweet note.

That said, this could have all been avoided if they hadn't basically turned all the ending consequences uniform. It wouldn't even take extra voice acting, cut scenes or maybe Kimberly Brooks reading epilogues would've done great. Fallout: New Vegas had a great wrap and it didn't even take any cinematics. As well as its best written DLC, Dead Money. Holy crap, that was an awesome, if not very depressing story.

I can't equate bittersweet with depth. They don't go hand in hand.  Also Mass Effects ending isn't bittersweet. That would imply that there was something sweet there to be found. There isn't.

Also, you enjoyed Blade Runners Happy ending? The one that borrowed stock footage from the Shining, and Harrison Ford narrating over it? The one that just decided "It turns out everybody was wrong, no one's about to die, and we're about to go live happily ever after". That one? That really didn't work. That movie needed a bittersweet ending. And what it got in the end was such a one. It blows your mind.
