It's just sad to think about everyone else being able to have their LI in the DLC but us, and I really don't want to get my hopes up for anything only to be let down. I don't know how to take this as a good sign really.
I know, it sucks. We don't really know anything about the EC yet, however. It could be decent, or it could just be more tragedy. No way to tell.
I actually started playing ME2 again last night. Even though things suck in ME3, I still really love ME2. It just feels more polished, better conversations/interactions. The combat is still pretty fun. And of course, there's Thane!
My feelings swing from positive to negative so much regarding Thane it makes me dizzy.
I was very disheartened by the conversation you had with PW on twitter the other day when he gave the old 'you all knew he was dying' line (I know it was really good of him to talk with you though and that he was not trying to be mean). What staggers me is that the team don't seem to have considered that having a character that is central to your Shepards story which you care about killed with no chance to change the outcome is really not fun, how could that be fun? I think that they seriously lost sight of how crucial maintaining the element of fun is for every player. Obviously the most blatent example of this is the heartless ending.
But I would probably be more worried if they did have Keythe in for the EC as that would imply a quick fix that would undoubtedly not be enough. I have to admit that I highly doubt that they will deliver a satisfactory fix for Thane, but I'll keep hoping.
I remember when DA2 came out there were so many fans demanding an apology etc, and while I didn't love it like Origins, I did have fun playing it and didn't think any apology was required as noone was deliberately sidelined.
I actually DO think that BW owe the fans of Thane, and Jacob an apology. If they had killed Thane off after decent, relevant content with a paramour etc I would not have been happy but I wouldn't feel conned as I do now.
@beaniebat I'll be posting Thane (or 'the wee man' as my partner calls him) on Wednesday, Expect him Thursday/Friday I had hoped to post him tomorrow but I need to get the packaging for him and a disposable camera (if I can find one).
