We've got tweets suggesting that DLC was always planned.
No one at bioware is outright denying IT.
There's evidence for IT INGAME.
Many other explanations either defy ingame logic or require evidence OUTSIDE the game.
The metaphors about the crucible and that are also quite fitting.
But if IT is untrue, then Bioware shouldn't have spent the time putting in all these clues and actually made a good game.
I mean, ME3 was good. But I've heard there were loads of bugs. And I've had my share of graphical bugs.
There's a lot of other thigns that annoyed me about this game.
Tali's face was lazy. Diana Allers was an unnecessary addition. You couldn't really speak to people (it was more like the Katsumi/Zaeed thing from ME2). None of your choices mattered. If you killed someone in a previous game, then the reapers essentially made a puppet for the hell of it (e.g. Rachni queen, Legion). They spent loads of time killing off characters and lying to us on twitter, which could have been put into making a good ending.
The child in the dreams. Why? Who is he? Just because a child died, would Shepard start to break down? It was a lazy attempt at getting sympathy from the player. They might aswell have had a laser shooting an orphanage. You know, if they showed a dog getting lasered, I'd be more upset than some random child. But why not show Kaiden/Ashely in the dreams? It's more personal??
The Kai lang guy. That seemed like a lazy attempt at making an enemy for us to hate. To be honest, he seemed like such a trivial character. The most irritating part was when he attacked on that Asari world. I kept shooting him in the head with a sniper rifle, while Tali's drone shot out rockets and Garrus calibrated. But using space magic, he just cowered behind a rock recharging his health, not actually attacking me. It seemed like they were artifically (?) trying to make a difficult enemy :S
Harbinger appeared for like, 5 seconds. It was if, 5 minutes before release, they went "oh crap, we've forgotten to add the main enemy in!"
"Quick, just stick a random reaper in and call it Harbinger!"
And the ending was awful. But the Normandy scene afterwards really irrtated me, how your squad mates teleported using space magic. Could they have not spent 5 minutes checking to see if the squadmates you had with you on the ground came out the Normandy? It shouldn't have taken too long for them to see this and correct it.
The only explanation I can think of is this:
www.youtube.com/watchand your squadmates decided to call joker for a pick up and fly off.
Day one DLC with an important character. That annoyed me. I bought it, but it still annoyed me.
It's as if they planned to chop out something that good ME fans would like. It just makes me wonder if other stuff has been cut for the sake of money. Which could explain some plotholes ingame.
A lot of points indicate a rushed, lazy game. And I really don't want to think that, because I love the ME series. I can forgive any of these points, especially the ones which are contradicted by IT, if bioware have always intended IT and release DLC with IT in it. I will take back everything negative I've said and appologise if IT is true (and is actually added in a good non-lazy way that makes sense).
