Do you think that’s one of the reasons for some of the rude responses? I found that for the some “one LI” people, as long as they get theirs they don’t care about anyone else.
When asked “well, what if what happened to Thane or Jacob happened to your LI?” they refuse to entertain the idea since “It didn’t happen to mine anyway so what’s there to think about!” Or they do and agree “yeah it would be terrible” but go right back to ignoring us.
I mean I have my favourite but I appreciate other characters enough that I care what happens to them, or even if I don’t like them I still can empathise with others if they get mistreated. In fact I was saddened by the fact I enjoyed my Garrus romance so much because I thought “I wanted all the thanmancers to feel this way too” . Sure my favourite got spoilt but that doesn’t make me happy if it means it was at the expense of other characters.
Some rude responses remind me of the *me* i was at 14 (grew up as an overprotected only child) before someone i cared about a lot shook my worldview by letting me know in no uncertain terms that the world did not revolve around my special self 
, and that i very much needed to try and see things from other peoples perspective. I'm guessing that *some* of those responses come from people who never really had to learn that.
Then i'm sure there are also people out there who are worried that any resources sent our way will take away from the ending fix.
Just my opinion though.
I think you both hit the nail on the head, in most cases. The funny thing about the endings though.....I think BW has made their stand (for better or worse) when it comes to the endings. The extention DLC that comes out this summer, I think is it. It may be (as myself and others have speculated before) that they had already started projects that reflect these current endings, and it would cost too much money and time to scrap/redesign said projects AND make new endings to boot. So, if this IS the case, then "resources being taken away from changing the ending" becomes a moot point.
I also notice that a lot of people who think what we got was good enough, are also those that tend to play these games for the combat and at best, the overarching storyline. The story RPGing (that I am drawn to most....not great at shooters, so roleplaying is where it's at for me) was where corners were cut...or better yet, blown to smithereens in some cases.
@RShara - That is exactly where my head is at as well.......too bitter for anything but a cure or life extention with hints of a cure that we can leave to our own imaginations if need be.
As for romancing other LI's.......I have abused saves from a few of my characters to "try out" other LI's. Did this with Jacob (
what da hell did my Shep just say......
), with Garrus (very cute, but just wasn't feeling the romance), and have also done a Kaidan romance in ME1 (she will end up with Thane in ME2 once imported). But in the end, Thane wins! Can't help it.
For my m!Sheps I have a Liara romance, Miranda, Tali (very first run; screwed up the Miri romance, but really wanted to get with Samara.....that didn't happen
, so ended up with Tali), and I have a Ash/Jack run I am still sitting on waiting to finish. I love having all these choices, and I wouldn't want it any other way. Just wish everyone could see that, and fight for content of ALL the LI's.
