I remember seeing somewhere about how the Stargazer's background image was actually a modified stock photo, as was Tali's face.

Was cutting corners really necessary even at the end?

The writer should really come up here and take a look at all these threads.


I guarantee a lot of BioWare employees looked at these forums this weekend. I'm sure Mac Walters is feelin' the heat right now.

Willing to bet that this thread gets locked before the "f4gg0ts" thread, if that one even gets locked at all.

Also, yeah, personal attacks won't get us anywhere. If you're going to make an argument or a criticism, distinguish yourself from the dregs by actually putting thought into it.

The heat of being boxed in by mountains of cash from ME3's sales? Yeah.

Yes, don't treat him as badly as he (although probably not purtposefully) treated us when he wrote those endings.

Yea' that is pretty BS if you ask me...so far the Mods have been pretty fair in their locking of threads but that one still being open is just sad.

Remember. In this time, its easy to be consumed by hate. But hate is not our way. We're fighting not because we hate the writers, but because we love Mass Effect. Show them that side. Show them devotion and care. Show them that we want Mass Effect to stay Mass Effect. Show them that just because they missed on the ending doesn't mean we aren't able to forgive. ME1 was great. ME2 was great. ME3 was great up until the end. We know they have it in them. Show them some support, get them to give the series the ending it deserves.

I am not a fool, i know insult the devs wont do anything good for us.
But i dont like what he have done with the endings and now i know its him i want him to explain. He love to talk to sell his work to the press, he can do the same for us.

Before this gets too far, I just wanted to say that although I personally thought the ending really fell flat (putting it lightly), the rest of the game sported some of the best writing I've seen in the series. I think Mac Walters did a fantastic job as lead writer this time through. If five minutes out of a 30 hour game is all that really fell flat, I'd consider that a success. Great work there, really.

That ending, though... xD

I mean, they were swooping in earlier this week and locking them relatively fast. And then that one and others are allowed to just grow?

It presents the image of "Don't criticize our game, don't attack our writers, but feel free to call each other 'f4gg0ts'".

Great job, modding staff. Brav-o.

This is what happens when Drew Karpyshyn leaves Bioware... I know he went off to work on TOR before the game was made but still... I'm sure if Drew was the head writer we would have a better ending...

So what is this Tali issue? How did we see her face and what is the problem with it?

what they did for Tali's face was so so SO insulting to the players.  wha'ts worse is not that long ago there was an AMAZING picture of Tali unmasked right on their web page.  have you seen it?  it's unbelievably detailed.  the work of a true artist.  that hack-photoshop job was an insult to all of us.

Well I did see Stanley blocking threads that bashed us for bashing the ending and redirecting them to other threads.  So I know i've seen Stanley doing a good job, i'm just waiting for the one linked to be blocked.

We all think the same. And its one of the reason the endings hurt so bad, if the whole game was bad like the endings many of us can move along but when a game is 95% great and the last moment is a lazy work its really hard to get used to it if you are a fan since 5 years and know its the end of Shepard's games.

Where did we see it though? On Rannoch when she took off the mask or the LI photo in Shep's room?

Personally, I just want to associate a name with the ending. It provides some modicum of closure for me.

I'm new to the forums, only started to post the week before NA launch, so I didn't know if that was normal.

No forum moderation on the weekends, though, seems like an awful idea, especially when some people have nothing better to do. Hell, no forum moderation on the weekend after the game launches seems even worse.

The photo in the room. We never see her physical face.

That is pretty terrible. Rannoch was a great place to show her face, but they took the lazy way out. Where is the photo picture actually from? Was it ripped from google like the winter space one?
