The one thing Emily Wong's death has given me: knowing I am not alone in absolutely detesting the stunt casting of Jessica Chobot.


Indeed it kinda sucks that they gave Emily Wong's role in the game away to somebody else probably because the guys at Bioware have a crush on her and she wants to be in a video game. The voice actress who played Emily Wong could have used that role to help her career adding some IGN presenter does nothing for the fans or that persons career.


It does suck that the VA won't get to be in the last game (as Emily anyway, she was a good character), but I really enjoyed the twitter thing, as well as all the folks on CDN roleplaying their little hearts out :wizard: At one point, the story was trending (No.2), I believe. Some fairly decent marketing/PR which makes a nice change. Plus, I'm glad it was a character we knew and liked, and so felt some kind of connection with. It simply wouldn't have worked had it been a new character, or al-Jilani.

Don't know anything about Chobot, aside from the fact that she induces RAAAAGE and nerdgasms in almost equal measure. Don't much care either way if I'm honest, will judge her performance in-game on its own merits (or otherwise). :blush:

It's not a spoiler from the game, it was information that was publicly available to all users of Twitter yesterday, and there was a fairly large thread in this very section following.

And it was glorious.


Yes it was.  That thread was a lot of fun yesterday.

It's all kicking off on Twitter!  ARRIVAL!

Killing Emily Wong off screen on Twitter. Just classy.


Yeah, and you know what? It was actually quite well done, and a creative use of Twitter as a storytelling medium.


If I had known about this or was even using Twitter I'm sure I'd have been absolutely delighted. Image IPB

Man, I followed the Twitter feed last night - that was intense. Emily Wong will not have died in vain when I bring in my fleets and shock troops to lay the beatdown on the Reapers and their indoctrinated lackeys. I'll make sure the Reaper Emily went after gets "special treatment."

RAMMING SPEED.

It is possible, at all times, to either deny Diana Allers access to your ship or to boot her off of it.

Though here's a question: was the Twitter feed a purely cosmetic affair or did it offer hints and warnings?  

For example, does the fact that Allers is doing roughly the same thing that Wong did mean that at some point, the Reapers will be able to track down the Normandy by following her feed?  Wouldn't that be an interesting turn of events, especially if that was the point of that plot development in the Twitter thread.  

I doubt that's the case, but other ARGs have certainly been used to convey hints and insider information for the main game to those who pay attention and read between the lines.  And I'm sure that Wong's comments about how there's no way to beat the Reapers conventionally is a direct nod to the early plot developments and considerations of ME3.  It gets the readers thinking along certain lines as players.  That's what a good ARG does.

The only thing I knew about ME3 was that the trial was cut and that you get a prothean for DLC. That is IT. I tried to remain spoiler free, hell I even deleted the demo after 10 minutes of playing (and skipped as many of the cutscenes as I could.) So if this is a spoiler, it's wrong.


Not a spoiler. Not in game.


It is most definitely a spoiler.  The lack of Emily Wong in the game is IN THE GAME.

I don't know why you are having such difficulty understanding the fact that discussing ANYTHING about the game's plot is spoiler material.

This is the forum to talk about non-plot material.  If you want to talk about the plot, then head over to the spoiler forums.


You're funny!
