I would like to point something out.

Do you people realize how EA is likely viewing this event? They see that a handful of people (handful as opposed to the well over 2 Million copies they probably sold already), are really upset with the endings. And what do they do? They spend MORE money!

Doesn't matter where the money goes, the mere fact that you are willing to part with money for an ENDING that suits your tastes better (or IS better, regardless of how you look at it), just means one thing to EA. They can mess up endings in the future and possibly garner even more money by providing End Game DLC.

Child's Play is a great cause and all. But you guys are seriously going about your disappointment the wrong way.

Not to mention this guy who wants to take things to the FTC.


it is a possiblity that they will interpret it this way.  But the fact is, donating to the charity demonstrates that we are wiling to vote with our wallets.  And i can assure you that i for one, will a : never buy another bioware game if they ever pull anything this boneheaded again, and b: do not think that giving to charity is EVER the wrong way to do just about anything.  Helping other people > just about anything else, regardless of how silly our reasons may seem.

Well, it seemed like all the characters people wanted banners for were done, so I figured I'd mess with something else...this isn't specifically for the charity drive, but feel free to use it for whatever if you want to:

Why do I suspect the next step will be a salarian Che Guevara?

Keep up the good work!  Everyone!

Hold the Line.

lol, I'm not sure whether that means you like it or not, but...nah, the next step is gonna be another Soviet style one, but with different characters. Just cause I can only use the like...1 or 2 shots I have of Kirrahe so many times. <_< I'm thinking either Anderson or Hackett...

I don't think that will be a problem. :)

But, remember - technically the 1 week mark will not be until Monday night / Tuesday morning at 2am (Eastern). So the one week mark isn't set until then! I am sure we can be well past 62K by that time! :)

I have not played Mass Effect all weekend - (part of my own personal choice) the lame ending of course, makes NOT playing the game a lot easier. :)

Instead, I spend all my free time here, reading everyone's great posts and feeling all warm and fuzzy.

Hold the line!

Just went back and found it  - 
lots of excelent citations in there, you really brought together
a lot of the best links on the subject. I like it, well written
and fairly eloquent. I've seen some dismal ones (walls of text)
posted to the facebook, yours is top-shelf.

Reposting something I just put up in the megathread - I hope that's okay:

Guys, I have an idea that I feel has some merit.  If you agree, could you spread it around a bit?

With the letter-writing campaign winding down, and the charity drive moving along actively, I feel like we've done a lot to get our views out there, but we can't afford to stop now.  I'd like to run an idea by you all. 

How would people feel about organizing a low-key video message to Bioware, from us, the Retake movement?  I know a lot of us have made promotional vids or response videos on our own, but I'm talking about a single message, a letter from us, spoken by us, on video - maybe each person presenting one or two lines apiece - as many of us as we can fit into a reasonably concise message.

I feel this would be a good way to send a really positive message.  We love Bioware, we love Mass Effect, and we want to continue doing both ofthose things, but we're standing firm in our desire for endings that live up to the high standards the series has set up to now.  We feel this way as a unified group, but also as the individual gamers who make up that group.

Thanks for reading.

I think we should see if we can get at-least 100k by the end of the drive

Indeed. 

This video brings home the great history of Mass Effect games. And now after half a decade of first-class storytelling...to end like this? It boggles the mind.

Let it be known that for every DLC Bioware puts out that doesn't fix the endings, I won't buy it but make a donation instead.
