If Bioware/EA starts selling the "real" endings as DLC it sets an unacceptable precedent.  Alternative endings DLC are fine as long they are just that not the other way around.  What next buy a $60 game and there is no ending (good or bad) on the disc.  I understand making money but this is down right disgusting.

In an open-ended game like Mass Effect, what constitutes an 'alternate' ending? Aren't all available endings (in theory) equally plausible?

if there is a dlc for endings it better be free or at worst only free to people who got it new.

Shipping the last game in a trilogy with a **** ending has already set an unacceptable precident. There's no way in hell I'm sticking with them for another 5 years so I can see the "end" of their next trilogy.

BioWare is indoctrinated, we'd need lots of Paragon supporters to talk sense into them, but then they might pull the trigger after saying "I've tried". Wait, maybe the Illusive Man was right after all.

Ok fine let's play the internet dickwad technicality game.  Let's use ME2 as an example the game shipped with a few different endings (save the base, destroy the base, survive, die, who else makes it).  Let's say they release a DLC "Shepard has coffee with Harbinger" a what if DLC where everything goes.  That would be an "alternate" ending.  Well guess what ME3 just had "Shepard talks star man" for an ending.  Sure it's "equally plausible" in theory but in context it is BS.

Indeed, the fact it shipped with such a poor ending is the bad precedent.  Them admitting it would be a positive development even if there was more payment involved IMO

Exactly what I've been saying all week.  It's astonishing that people are begging for a chance to pay for an ending.  I think you lose the right to complain about any kind of scammy DLC after that.
