 The fact that the endings need explaining or that a "discussion of the interpretations" is required suggest to me that someone's lost the plot somewhere.

Let's just follow some logic here.

1) We have circa. 30,000 people coming out saying that the endings are flawed factually and logically.

2) Let's assume an average spread of the I.Q. spectrum across that 30,000 sample group.

3) A significant enough number of people of either:

a) average intelligence; or
high intelligence

have therefore stated the endings adhere to point 1.

3) Therefore, either the highly established rules of probability and I.Q. spectrums have totally broken down or 30,000 people have randomly become temporarily insane due to some environmental factors we're not aware of (unlikely due to the geographic spread of the grouping).

Conclusion: There is likely some merit in what is being said.

Unless it is about changing the endings, I don't care at all about their "announcements."

Shepard himself said it best, as seen in this video:



"I saw... I'm not sure what i saw. Death... destruction... nothing's really clear."

haha that fits perfectly with the ending

I'm more curious as to why it's going to take them approximately two weeks to make an announcement. It seems like a rather long time to do so IMO.

[DarkSpider88]

It's something... a small something, but at least it is something.

[tommythetomcat]

Sorry but if mums the word around here for 2 weeks I don't think I'll really care anymore what they have to say.

I can't find this person's post on the Facebook page, could someone point it out to me?

The community manager said she would discuss interpretations of the endings towards the end of the month.

Discuss. Interpretations.

Not official word on what they meant or what they are doing, if anything.

This. And trust me folks, she doesn't get uber-special access to all the writers' brains simply for being awesome. She works for the community, not as a developer.

Or why we even condider Reaper threat as undestructible when it took just one Cain rocket to kill one?
I can go on forever.

I was thinking about this too. Why not just give every soldier they can this weapon? It seems to work real well. Instead, we see turians using grenade launchers against it. lolwut?

[LostHero2k9]

Pffff i don't want a statement from bioware explaining why they think the endings are okay.

I want a statement telling me whether or not we can expect a fix.
And if so, when it will come and if not thanks for the informations so i can move on looking for another franchise for the nex few years.

This was never going to be fast. This is not surprising in the least - nor is it proof you'll even learn anything new at that time. My advice would be to leave the community until then. Focus on something else which you enjoy.

As others have said, if you have to explain the end of a story, you did it wrong. Just like having to explain the punchline of a joke.

[DarkSpider88]

You know what, they could be employing the wait it out and they will leave method.

Well if they wait two more weeks I'll say that this will only get worse for them at least. In my opinion this rage will get even bigger if they say nothing. 12,000+ likes on Facebook in two days, 26,000+ fans who want a brighter ending and about 820 pages in a thread. Two weeks will hopefully make those numbers grow even more.

Heh.

[hurricaneez2]

Its amazing that a company can write amazing stories yet consistently screw up the endings. They did it with both DragonAge games now they did it to ME. Its staggering

[gimzod76]

here hoping the announcement is that a new ending is being made and the people who approved the current one have been feed to a Thresher Maws

They are making an annoucement "explaining" the endings. They havent said anything more. I call BS on the whole thing. We dont want an explanation. We want closure.

lol you clearly need an explanation from Bioware (no offense) The endings provide closure to shep's story...just use your head...

How about you use yours and take back that statement. Go read the forums, in basically every thread EVERYONE explains why the so called "Closure" isn't a closure, and if EVERY thread on the forum states it, it's true. The majority is (almost) always in the right. 

[Spectre_Shepard]

i want it now....

but the game is still releasing around the world

Bioware:  "The ending is awesome, your feeble organic brains are just having trouble understanding it."

Players: "How does the crucible turn every organic creature in the universe into a cyborg?  It doesn't make sense. How does a signal telling the reapers to withdrawl destroy relays and a starship?  How is anyone getting back to their home planets when most advanced technology has been destroyed in the destroy ending?"

Bioware: "This was very clearly explained.  The plans for the crucible were handed down by many cycles worth of organic races.  Their finest wizards and sorcerers imbued it with massive amounts of space magic.  As you are well aware, space magic comes in three varieties.  Thus we had to limit ourselves to only the 3 endings."

Players: "Why would the Normandy be in FTL flight when at the time it was supposed to be engaged in the space battle that was still being waged?"

Bioware:  "Oh come on!  Did you see that cinematic?!?  It's trying to outrun a shockwave!  And you think their dead, but their not!  Michael Bay inspired that scene."

Players: "So the reapers are synthetics who kill organics, to prevent organics form creating synthetics who will kill organics?"

Bioware: "Correct."

Players: "..."

Bioware:  "Glad you finally understand.  Now buy some DLC."

lol

They're going to CGI Shepard in for Bob Newhart and use the last two minutes of the Newhart series finale.

I will be REALLY impressed if anyong gets that reference.

Ah come on. The end of DA:O was pretty decent. There's multiple ways to kill the Big Bad, the results of your actions are clearly explained, and you even get a little party if you survive.

It's the expansion that potentially retconns the wardens death that gets stupid.
