I've got thoughts like little bugs crawling in my mind:

#1 Why is BW letting all this major-spoilering be uncontrolled? Could it be that they're just toying with us?

#2 Why did they (assuming that the endings/Normandy are true and they're the ONLY we'll get) lie to the community for like a year? 

#3 Seriously, why? A trilogy, full of our choices, of our mistakes.. all this will be lost like tears in the rain? (epic quote) This should severely impact their credibility in the future.

Plus other questions that i won't post here because are strictly end-game related and i won't contribute to this.

If people like Xoisite are helping BW troll us I don't know if I will be super happy or furious.

Dude I have faith that BioWare won't screw us so let me give you some advice, stay off the forums until the game comes out. This is going to be my last time on the forums because I'm sick of people making posts about the endings that they haven't even played yet and are doing things like cancelling preorders and saying they will never buy another BioWare game again, so just ignore all of the BS coming from forum users and just form your own opinions about the game AFTER you play it.

all I can say is next week BSN gets burned to the ground and Bioware will either learn a lesson or they will get a ass whipping

If it turns out that the space edition endings are fake and Bioware was tricking us all along and the real thing is actually better, then... I'd actually be happy.

Damn good advice Synester24.

I will form an opinion after my first runthrough and IF the endings are a poor as speculated, then i will launch my teddy.

(#4 What's in the day-1 patch? :3)

1) It's possible if they're toying with us. I'm not ruling it out until we all play the game. They haven't made a comment because they're playing it smart. If they confirm the endings, then it causes mass disappointment and a loss of sales. If they deny the endings, people won't believe BW and/or it'll cause confusion as to why the endings are on youtube and why Xoisite has been giving us pictures of the endings from his own TV. All this happened when we had 7 days left. Why bother commenting when you're a week away. However, devs have commented through twitter. One said that his reaction to it was "people shouldn't believe everything on the forum. Just play the game".

2) Marketing. It's a common tactic in gaming. Look at Dead Island - the trailer was heartstring-tugging and beautiful. But the game itself? Not so good.

3) Who knows? I'll admit, killing off Shepard is way too cliche. There are other ways to end a trilogy without killing off Shepard and/or the Normandy crew. 

4) No one knows. The PC patch is 256mb. That's actually a lot. The ME2 patch for bug fixes was less than 100mb. Some believe it's an additional ending since the other endings were around 80mb-100+mb. Others believe they're simply bug fixes for both Single-player and Multi-player. It's odd though - according to the EA FAQ regarding the patch, they said that the patch is pre-rendered in the game... but you need the new patch to unlock it.

[Aargh12]

Lol @ those who still believe endings are fake, spoilers are fake, and they are not available to read/watch on the Internet. We have seen the endings, they were extracted from the game files as well as audio clips. You can't deny the reality.

BTW. If the patch had a new ending, guys who has access to the games files would confirm it's existence. There's no proof the patch adds anything new to the game. It's a simple, bug fixing patch and nothing more. Don't be naive.

SE addition may not be full version, but some people have pre-loaded the game and the same binks and are ripping out audio files. How can we explain that?
I wish there were mistakes or what, but there would be lots of files to change and day-1 patch won't fix it all.

Better yet, the whole space edition stunt is just an elaborate hoax and all the winners are actually in on it.

[CerberusSoldier]

The endings are real . you want proof here it is .

[Geirahod]

Fooling themselves is their choice...but those are the facts...
Of course Bioware will say nothing about it...but the next week will come their answer: "We did it, so what? we have your money now!"

I'll be more than happy if all this turns out to be a epic trolling by Bioware....and I'm willing to apologise publicly to them, if all this is not true.

I've been thinking (again). What if SE and Xoi and everyone that has played the game so far got the endings that would appeal the majority of newcomers? Let's think about it: Victory through sacrifice, Normandy's fate unknown (but since they're new who gives a damn)

The day-1 patch could "unlock" the famous unique NG+ ending, giving the fans a chance to get their satisfactionary ending.

Thoughts?

[Sashimi_taco]

I still hope the space editions where just some extra burned disks with the game in them but with some stuff cut out.

I know in my head this is obviously not true, but in my heart I want to believe.

Lol, yeah. That'd be great to find out: That this was all just a very elaborate trick/experiment by Bioware and the real endings are much, much better than what we were shown. I doubt it though, but... One can always hope. That, or wait for a "better ending" DLC.

If this is the end of their IP, I'm not certain they care too much about the Credibility as tieing up loose strings. If they do host anything more in the Mass Effect Universe, they're probably going to be dealing with a clean slate.

As far as those who like Bioware's work - critic's are fighting a losing battle. The entire subscription base of SWTOR is now potential customer base - and not all of them are Bioware's typical dedicated fanbase. Even if that is a smaller base, those who do stick to TOR now give a constant stream of revenue and employment to EA/Bioware. They have everything they need to produce the games they want, rather than caving to design demands by a vocal minority.

I honestly would like to wait and see, but alot of things in the spoilers do make sense doesn't mean I believe it tho. Id jus prefer waitin whether it's true or not I'll still be playing this game to its entirety. If it doesn't end exactly the way I want it then oh well. Of course when that time comes I will indeed voice my opinion. For now I would like to retain any optimism I might still have leff. As naive as it sounds, I think thats best for now

indeed, i will then apologize - "mea culpa" and all that BS 

if not, i might hand the people doing the flamming and "burning" and raging a torch (and i will rage a little, too )

It doesn't matter whether the endings we've seen are it, or if this is a monumental troll. People are going to be p*ssed when they complete a "perfect" run through, trying to get a bright ending. Or if someone fesses up to an epic troll operation. Much wailing and gnashing of teeth, and all that.

BSN denizens within a week after release:

(#4 What's in the day-1 patch? :3)

1) If they confirm the endings, pre-orders and general sales could potentially dip. Bad for the biz. If they deny the ending, people will just assume they're doing damage-control. Which would most likely be the case.

2) They may have initially planned to incorporate that stuff, but it's likely EA pushed them for time, like they did with the DA2 team. That, or there may have been a consensus among the writers that thought, "hey, this ending works best for the series". Things always change during development, which is why I find it prudent to take the dev promises and such with a grain of salt.

3) With TOR now, and a rapidly expanding playerbase among the "casuals", I don't think Bioware is too concerned about pissing off its long-time fans. We're a minority now, it seems.

4) Nobody knows what's in the patch, but it's likely just gameplay and bug-fixes for MP, and possibly SP.
