Can't participate. Spring break's that week.

Maybe I'll send an angry email.


That's all I ask for^

Yes, a gamers revolt!
Yes!
That always works well.
Yeah, like the boycott with the Day1 DLC.
Totally worked, yeah.

I'm getting really frustrated about this whole "ending sucks" campaign, not just here but all over the internet and bioware forums. Would you guys petition to get the ending of a book changed because you don't like it? Are you going to call up your favourite musician and ask them to change the last chord because you feel a different one should be there? ME3 is a piece of art just like any other painting, movie or the like. I don't hear people rebelling for a different ending for a concert or tv show they've seen, why does it cause such an uproar all of a sudden for a video game.

Besides the fact that I enjoyed the ending, you guys are petitioning against the right to freedom of expression. You don't like it? Fine, don't play it, boycott it if you will. Frankly that's your loss and it seems borderline hypocritical to threaten to boycott bioware's products on bioware's forums that bioware has provided for you. That's another discussion altogether that I won't reply to. Good luck to your "revolution" but I am hoping Bioware will leave it the way it is.

They would, actually. They would petition anything and argue with people over anything. It's been pretty much said that Bioware loves their own ending and is not going to change it for anyone.

Also, I will be sending a critics point of view on the endings. Lit major here, and it's the worst kind of ending an author could produce.

24 hours till we hit the trenches:

I leave you, my fellow soldiers and barriers of arms with this, until then HOLD THE GOD DAMN LINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:

Come gather 'round people
Wherever you roam
And admit that the waters
Around you have grown
And accept it that soon
You'll be drenched to the bone
If your time to you
Is worth savin'
Then you better start swimmin'
Or you'll sink like a stone
For the times they are a-changin'.

Come writers and critics
Who prophesize with your pen
And keep your eyes wide
The chance won't come again
And don't speak too soon
For the wheel's still in spin
And there's no tellin' who
That it's namin'
For the loser now
Will be later to win
For the times they are a-changin'.

Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don't stand in the doorway
Don't block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There's a battle outside
And it is ragin'
It'll soon shake your windows
And rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin'.

Come mothers and fathers
Throughout the land
And don't criticize
What you can't understand
Your sons and your daughters
Are beyond your command
Your old road is
Rapidly agin'
Please get out of the new one
If you can't lend your hand
For the times they are a-changin'.

The line it is drawn
The curse it is cast
The slow one now
Will later be fast
As the present now
Will later be past
The order is
Rapidly fadin'
And the first one now
Will later be last
For the times they are a-changin'.

Guys, the Final Hours of ME3 is up online. Damn, the ending, is real. Not cut, it was intended to be like this. No dlc is coming.

We must intensify. We must grow. We will get our dlc one way or another!


Not true.

The only thing there that could even remotely disprove the Indoc theory is the following quote;





[regarding DLC] Whatever we do would likely happen before or during the events of Mass Effect 3, not after.


And even that is open to debate. Not only is it not definitive, The indoc theory takes place during ME3, not after.

The leaving things open part and intentionally not answering questions we all actually wanted to know seems pretty amateur for a company like Bioware. Can't believe they actually sat down and thought up some of this crap. Makes me want to support this movement.

there's a rumor circulating that Mac Walters INSISTED on this ending. The other writes were quite upset with it, but Casey Hudson was the one who gave the approval.

Whilst I can sympathise that not everyone likes the ending, if the biggest problem you have in life is how a game ended then your spending to much time playing games. ;)

This has the potential to work if it is a coordinated effort.

No it doesn't. But what it does have the potential of doing is making the gaming community look even dumber than they already made it.

Although I won't partipicate in this action, I will take the time to explain it to you....
Albeit it is of course up to Bioware itself to decide about it, your points are null and void since you compare to 'static' media. Do you have input in how an painting is created (unless you're the one who ordered it painted?) . No. Do you have input in how an TV-series or movie should end? (Well, bar some forms of digital TV and advanced movies, but ignore those) No. Do you have input in how CoD:MW3 ends? No, since it isn't a game which revolves around choices and consequences.
SHOULD you have input in how ME3, KOTOR, Fallout, Deus Ex or any other decent RPG ends? Up to a limit, HELL YES. They revolve around choice. If a developer promises 'that it is your story and your choices&consequences', and you live up to it till shortly before the ending of the 3rd out of 3 games, then you promised and done a lot about it. So why the hell then a 'barely no choice&consequence' matter like this? Bioware did a great job (minus some minor flaws and errors, but hey, that's unavoidable) during the series. And then they bring this kind of ending where your decisions have about zilch impact? Sorry, but I really just don't understand that *shudders*

Apples and oranges.

I didn't help the artist paint his picture, or the musician write and play his piece.

I did help Bioware tell their story, and I deserve to have some say in the ending. For my Shepard to not completely go OOC and bow to the will of the Reapers.
