I for one, enjoy being hyped up for a game - even if I'm dissapointed by the final result I'd rather that be my conclusion untainted by what others have said.
Sure I could just not come onto this forum but I'm days away from playing one of my most anticipated games ever - seriously, I've been trying to rid myself of distractions to focus on my career but I allowed myself the Mass Effect series and after the third game, that's it, I need to focus again.
So here I am and on this non-spoiler forum, for people who haven't registered their games, (as those of you who can play it have been given every other forum to post in and talk freely about in-game content) and there are all sorts of spoilers and as annoying, it turns out, so much negativity.
Why come here, why vent to people who mostly consist of those who cannot yet play the game. Why not just keep your opinions to yourselves if you didn't want to post in the other forums?
Some of the faults you guys and gals have pointed out I probably wouldn't have noticed until after I finished the game and reflected upon its strengths and weaknesses and now from the get-go I'm going to be thinking, 'oh dear, that would have looked better with some film grain hmm...'
'That scene was very auto-dialogue heavy, wasn't it?'
Etc...
I want to come here and still talk about how freakin excited I am to be able to finish this trilogy, not read post after post about what you've found ****. You shouldn't even have finished the game yet in my opinion, this will be your last Mass Effect game for a while and you should have savoured it - enjoyed it like a good book and made it last - allowed yourself to be excited about the mission you were going to try and finish after you get home from work...
I appreciate this is a rather pointless thread - It's more of a plea than anything else - to show some respect and understanding to your neighbours who can't yet have an opinion yet will be sensitive to any that come from those who are (for the moment) in the know.
I don't what to hear about: Tali's face; the Rachni Queen; ME2 characters, the ending; graphical issues, game complaints etc...
Although if one of you can confirm you can kick Chobot off the Normandy (which I read somewhere on here) then I wouldn't complain about that, as I'm sure my fellow brits also wouldn't mind / any fan in their right mind.

Well since we seem to be living in the same Monarchy, I would say old chap that it is largely self inflicted
I would advice that what you are training in is not working.
so i would try the practice free will. No-one forced you to read those nastry nasty threads.
As well you could practice to develop critical sense to form your own informed opinion.
Used in conjunction, that should give you a fair chance to avoid the posts or to take them with a pinch of salt.
hopefully you will find it more helpful that blaming others for what is essentially a personal problem.
Did you play the demo? did you enjoy it, and somehow you want me to believe that comments of total strangers can influence your enjoyment that much?.
Some of the comment you made as "enjoyment stopper" are not necessarily false. Nonetheless I can't wait the 9th when i will be able to activate my game and yes i am pretty much hyped despite the not so good threads.
