Anyone else getting some kind of satisfaction from seeing EA's stock just go down and down and down?

Considering how they treat their customers I do think it's nice to see at the moment.

Come up with a third option to solve everything.

Don't you mean a fourth option? :D

Jessica Chobot's talking about Allers having a new hairstyle in the extended cut.. dunno how serious she's being though haha. Still would be cool to have more voice acting by her, I would have liked to see that arc play out.


Oh man - I'm sorry, but I don't want them to concentrate on haircuts, I want the ending fixed!!! :pinched:

Not really, it could mean the loss of jobs, not everyone employed by EA is a money grubbing crook, a lot are normal office workers making a living for their family.

I would love to go to an alternate dimension where the EA CEO is a gamer instead of crook and see how different the world is.

Honestly no,

I really, really wanted Bioware to change the ending/add to the ending ala Broken Steel.  Then after a month of stalling they refused.  Politely.

I mean I do want BW and EA to suffer for mistreating their fans. 

Frankly if there's one thing that I've learned from all this, its that EVERYBODY lost.  Fans get stuck with a bad ending.  Bioware gets their name ruined and their sales slashed.  And Bioware fans probably lose their favorite developer.


But what I really wanted was what I thought they would do, what Bioware always seems to do when all hope is lost.

Come up with a third option to solve everything.

Another fear is that even if everyone ends up getting everything they want it'll panic both EA and BW into never wanting to touch the ME universe ever again, and that would be a great shame.

The only reason she wants a new hairstyle for Allers is because she is the only one who romances her. That still freaks me out.:sick:

Games are outlawed there, after the EA CEO tried to take over the US Government with the help of millions of gamers to stop SOPA and the RIAA.. unfortunately they lost, and games are now outlawed and the EA CEO is a PoW kept in Leavenworth.. which is in the state of Columbia Records.

you fail to see who gains.

EA cashed in a great franchise. EA success in day one dlc for 800. EA business model works. Acquire promising companies. Keep the ideas, reguritate them as much as possible. MAss Effect might have been short lived for them. But it was profitable to do so nevertheless. Eat the little fish before they grow. Not the best, but very profitable business practice.

Shame Microsoft studios let go of bioware, and if it was bioware's idea to go to EA in the first place, then they are worse than I thought.

yea, i figured they were destroyed like every other ending, so pretty much the relays were only disabled in the control ending, able to be fixed quickly?

It's gonna be your new fetch quest, you have to run around finding the bits to re-enable each relay, that should stretch ME4 out by 10 hours easily(remembers scanning in ME2 *shudders*)
