I figure if the streamers on youtube haven't streamed the ending yet there's a slim chance bioware is just trollin us for teh lulz and they've been behind the "leaks" allowing all this bad stuff to pour out and fill our heads with doubt but if the streamers have already shown the ending then we're all doomed
It's that thought that helps me sleep in the mean time.
Maybe all of these leaks are false. Maybe Bioware knew that the endings would be the end all and be all of the series. Maybe there are actually dozens of ending permutations out there and in order to prevent them from being released they allowed the release of only a few to keep people tied up so that the majority wouldn't be spoiled. Sort of like a lizard dropping its tail so it can get away -- release some endings so the others don't get exposed.
I do similar things with friends and movies. Whenever someone asks me about some details of a movie and I tell three or four ridiculous things so that if I ever reveal the actual thing they won't believe it.
Someone asked me about Harry Potter and I told them the last book is a coming out story where Harry marries Lucius. Then I told them I lied and Hermione marries Ginny. Then I told them I lied and Voldemort is actually Jesus.
It's convluted yes -- also very unlikely.
its just the amount bioware throwing out the actual ME3 script and saying "pfft what story" just doesn't seem right. Grant it I may still be in denial but what kind of writing team writes themselves into a death trap filled with spikes, snakes, quicksand, and acid claiming they'll explain everything, there will be multiple endings, and there will be no loose ends by leaving gaping plot holes such as most of ME2 and the "AI controls the reapers from the citadel...but needs reapers to do stuff themselves"
if bioware is truely trolling us they deserve a gold medal and a place as the first olympic trolling team because they are good
I'm hoping. I'm hoping I'm hoping I'm hoping.
How much would it really cost to make fake endings? Have the VA's do a few more lines of dialoge. Given that all the 'different' endings presented are essentially the same I imagine not much.
The whole end scene = google winter space, leads me to believe that BioWare wouldn't be that lazy in crafting the end sequences.
Someone among the writers or developers must have known that this would ****** off a lot of people. Someone must have known the ire it would raise. Someone among them must have raised is hand and said, 'what if people want a happy end,' and then reason would have descended upon them and revealed that a game about choice should have varried conclusions.
And then after carefully crafting those conclusions, decided that the best way to hide them until the official release was to allow the release of false endings and reports.
I know I'm grasping at straws. You don't need to tell me. I know I'm doing it. And it makes me sad.
