I feel as though the community's response the endings is actually far more interesting and emotional than the endings themselves.

That makes it sound like the interview took place when the endings were first being actively discussed on here, about 4-5 days prior to actual release.

I'm pretty sure if that were more recent, the news articles, hundreds of threads, thousands of votes across polls, price drop in games, and 2.5-3 star ratings on Amazon would've been mentioned by the interviewer.

I second this. The way he was talking sounded a lot more like it was pre-launch. I really doubt that BioWare would deliver a sucker-punch like that after all this in that manner (through a random interview). Hold the line, people!

Eh I'm not sure if the interviewer would have mentioned it regardless. The gaming media is not exactly known for asking hard questions of people that they partially rely on to pay their bulls. 

Good point - asking a question like that would've really put him on the spot and calling him out like that would've ensured that they would get no further interviews with Bioware... if the interview is recent.

Casey Hudson: "The amount of money we've made has no beginning. It has no end. It is infinite. Millions of years after these people stop complaining about the ending to Mass Effect 3, Bioware will endure."

Casey - thanks for letting your loyal ME fans know that you completely sold out, and that you have no idea what the word, "polarizing" means....

I have yet to personally come across a single human being who actually enjoyed the endings to the ME series. Way to throw away a reserved seat to the "Greatest Video Game Series Ever Hall of Fame" by fumbling at the 1-yard line.

What are you most proud of with this third game in the franchise?

I think what I’m most proud of is that we’ve told a story that will be remembered. I think so much of what we set out to do was create something that would be a memorable experience for people that they would think about after they played it. There’s so much throwaway entertainment out there. I didn’t just want to make something that was essentially the videogame version of a popcorn movie. I wanted to make something huge and exciting and the biggest thing possible that felt like a blockbuster and had that big action science fiction feel.

Somehow I'm reminded of the band playing as the Titanic slowly slips down into the Atlantic.

So, basically he is saying, "We wanted a strong reaction no matter what; even if the reaction is that most people are pissed and feel let down.  That we upset so many people off is a success by our standards."

I get the distinct feeling that Bioware has a bit of a god complex...a lot like the reaper-god, or whatever the kid thing was.  Let's just not question them further or risk blaspheming.

 

You know what... I'm really starting to agree with this line of that... I'm really this is getting point where either they A. can't read and comprehend at a adult level or B. They are so used to people sucking up them that they believe whole heartedly they can do know wrong.. 

and I am really starting to lean towards B. 

See episode 1-3 of the Star wars franchise...flawed because no one could tell george  "No". 

I really don't know if it applies here, but it could.

I'm starting to feel a little sick about the amount of time I invested in this series. If this is the kind of response we are going to get, I don't know what the point was.

[qdust]

Doesn't there need to be another pole for it to be polarizing?....last time I looked it was as close to unanimous as the internet ever gets

 I think this Image pretty much sums up how screwed we were from the begining

This image is misleading and Casey Hudson is completely correct.

There's only one ending - it just comes in three colors.

[Northern Sun]

Honestly I'm not too surprised by this. Guess I won't be buying another Bioware product unless we successfully hold the line.

"We like creating unsatisfactory games."

They invoke such strong emtions in people.  It's so satisfying as an artist.

[ElectronicPostingInterface]

Whatever.

Thank you for at least answering the question more directly, even if it has a lot of spin on it.

Given I waited five years for the conclusion of Mass Effect, I think I'll check in on Bioware in five years since they decided that was an appropriate amount of my time to waste.

Game over, client/customer relationship over.

That's just.....Wow...How can he be so detatached from whats going on?....Seriously.

[RebelByDesign]

I am dumbfounded by this response.

"We are BioWare. You are bacteria."

[Paparob]

This isn't a David Lynch movie. You need to at least be able to explain what happens after the end. Thats all I'm asking. Just explain to me what happens next. You don't hafta change the ending, just tell me what happens to the squad mates and the galaxy. That is probably the most basic request in the world.

[nitefyre410]

I can't believe what I'm saying... its almost like they Uwe Bowe syndrome were you just can't here what people are telling you..

I have never seen anything like this from a company before in my life.

Yeah, you can't exactly say the ending sucks when the game isn't out in all markets.

[ElectronicPostingInterface]

Out of touch is beyond comprehension.

ME did not need the screwjob ending. It would have been way more memorable without it.

30,000 people saying "THE ENDING SUCKS, CHANGE IT" is not a debate about meaning...

It's more akin to a bunch of your friends saying "Get off the ****ing tracks! There's a TRAIN coming."

Plugging your ears and going "Lalalalala" will not magically deflect the train.

No matter what color your space magic is.
