So, 900 pages of complaint and it's been 7 days since launch. Let's try for a thousand more by next week!

Right here. Beware, giant tool incoming.


He may be a giant tool, but he's got the viewpoint most other "normal" people have.  That we're being whiney and feeling entitled.  Calling him a giant tool may just reinforce his view.

We don't want what he thinks we want.  All we want is a relevant ending that is based off our *real* decisions.  Just give us something akin to what you've been giving us all along...a real *choice* in the matter, not just 3 colors of light that burn the flesh.

Saw this in their Twitter:

*exchange* 



Mass Effect supports Hipsters?!

PREORDER CANCELLED!!!!!!

 


Okay ...lets go over few things  in this tweet exchange

  I'm  not a moron , I understood the endings peferctly fine.. .the problem is that with conctext of the narrative  that is given to us up until that point. Which I might had was running all the lines of "Earn Your Happy Ending"   it is completely  diconnnect from that. It went from Earning your happy ending to Failure in the Option given in 3 flaovers by a Diablos Ex Machina with a logic that is self fulling.    

I really getting tired of this hipsters trying to shove this  "True Art is Angtsy" nonsense down out throats. Because they  know about   lot art that is deep because of dark tone but understand nothing about it... 

there is a huge difference between knowing something and understanding something and alot of them know alot and understand very little.

It just dawned on me that I got more closure about what happened to my space hampster after I was suspended from duty than I got about my whole crew after I defeated the Reapers...maybe this is why I am bothered!


It's nuts, they pay that much attention to detail during the game but can't even give us a coherent ending and a text epilogue...

From Jessica Merizan's twitter (not linked because I have brain problems and don't know how to link a specific tweet):

John Wehr  ‏ @Ozai75
@JessicaMerizan I feel truly unsatisfied by the ending, tbh. There is no falling action, in a narrative sense. Hope that's not it for ME

Jessica Merizan   @JessicaMerizan

@Ozai75 not to be cheeky but.... ;)


What?  No.  Stop it.  Stop that.  WHAT DO YOU MEAN, WINKY FACE, WHAT IS THAT EVEN


What?! WHAT?! We could be right? Holy ****ing ass crackers...If we are this will be the theme blaring until the end of time

Why would they in any way criticize or tolerate criticism of a game that product-places their very own Chobot as a character on the Normandy? Of course IGN casts nothing but disparaging slurs at us and mischaracterizes our viewpoint with a strawman. I'd have been surprised to see a neutral presentation of opposing stances on that site.

no matter how much I stay hopeful, my thoughts keep returning to how even if they were to make a new ending, it would be impossible to distribute. This isn't some MMO where people know to expect updates, this is something that millions of people are going to simply buy the game, play through and not pick it up again probably ever, horrible ending and all. These are people who aren't online 24/7 who wouldn't know about a new ending at all or even how to acquire it if they found out.

I'm just trying to be realistic about it and its depressing me, knowing that nothing is likely to happen.


Its nice to hang on to a shred of hope, thinking something might be done. It is highly unlikely though, since this doesn't make a SINGLE bit of sense in terms of marketing.

So yes, I'd rather treat this as the actual ending, regardless how sad it is, instead of clinging on to false hopes. It is however heartening to see so many people gathering and supporting a common cause. Well, at least if BW didn't do the game justice, the forums and the support they gave did so much more.

*sigh* I think any ambiguous statements from BW should be met with incredulity at this point.

I'm still getting over the fact that I'm beating myself up about a damn video game.

I've said before, I get waaaaay too emotionally invested in games with good stories, and ME had a beautiful story. Then dat ending.

But goddamnit. I'm *still* sad and depressed.


There, there.  I know that feel, bro.

Takes about 48-72 hours for the worst of it to pass.  Until then, focus these feels.


The feels hurt.

I don't cry, and I've cried.

I don't rage, and I've raged.

I don't blather uncontrollably to myself about what could, would, and should have been, and I'll be damned if I'm saying I haven't done that.

I can honestly say no game has ever made me feel this way, and though it's a downfall for Bioware to have ended it like they did, it's a great triumph to actually make people feel so deeply about their product.

Actually, we probably did 40 pages in the last 3 hrs. I have been sitting here for a long time...


Same here. I got off work at noon, came home, sat down, saw that we had 817 pages or so, and started reading. It's now 11:30PM.


Haha, same here. Except I came back from classes at 2pm and sat down...12:35am for me :lol:

We could be right...more than that, we COULD WIN! Hold The Line everyone, by god hold the line, don't falter now haha! We might just win this, the snowballs chance in hell might actually come out of hell. And I don't care what they say, I think if there had been next to no fan backlash over the endings, those Twitter posts wouldn't exist, if a new ending does come out, I say WE made it up, WE held the line and we showed them the power of conviniction and love of this Series.

I have work early tomorrow, so I should go to bed. Keep holding the line, people. Don't give up hope.

Keelah Se'lai. If the Quarians can learn to co-exist peacefully with the Geth, the Turians and Salarians can cure the Genophage and one woman can unite all of the species of the Galaxy against an impossible threat... We can secure her victory through a victory of our own. Good night.

Me too. I was so very excited standing in line for my copy. Now I'm so very disappointed. I think I might need to take a break from gaming for a while.

Another thing that still pisses me off is the fact that I have to play the "multiplayer" part to boost my readiness and be able to save Shep.

But nothing justifies those endings.

Actually the guy's a ******. He specifically states we want the ending changed. We don't.

We want an ending that makes sense...even if it is "shep dies" or "reapers win" or whatever.

I, personally, want the option to live happily ever after. And I'm willing to restart the whole damn game to achieve that...I want to earn that ending.

A week ago I was sitting at home, annoyed that I couldn't go to the midnight launch. Now, I'm kind of glad I didn't bother.

I wonder... perhaps one of us should try writing a fan article and having it featured on one of the major gaming websites? Has anyone tried this yet?

Of course, it would have to be well composed, free of flaming/trolling/whatever, and explain exactly why we feel so upset, depressed, sad, angry, betrayed, face-slapped, etc. Explain our feels to those who don't understand.

Here's to hoping that BioWare gives us some kind of official response soon. Heck, I'd be okay with them just telling me what happened in a way that made complete sense, closing those plot-holes and explaining why exactly the Normandy is fleeing the battle.

And for those of you that need a laugh after the end, here. I found this link somewhere in the last couple hundred pages, and it sure helped me get over my depression. I really hope it helps.
