Also, thank you, Mr. Woo, for adding the Bioware tag to the thread; makes it a lot eeasier for people to find.

Alpha, you're so win I would lose just to see you win, except I can't. Because, you see, you win.

No, you're so win!

This article is making me all warm and fuzzy. Gamefront is earning some serious brownie points.

Together we can get better endings . We don't have to submit to EAware. We can beat them!

It's a worthwhile read. I can understand your point, but why rehash what the original author did so well?

That being said, I hope a certain IGN employee sees this. Man what an ass he was.

[saturos2]

more people must see this.

Can't even say it better myself, excellent work Mr. Ross Lincoln. /salute

[mattahraw]

Wow this is a really excellent article. It really accurately conveys everything I felt about the ending, in a far more concise way than i think i ever could express.

If your bosses stopped ignoring their fan base then we wouldn't need to bump anything. We deserve a comment on what happens next.

We deserve? lol don't include me nor the other 3,489,999 Mass Effect Fans

Another joins the fray! great article!

Keep strong, hold the line!

I hope BW just puts in the endign they watned to, it really seems like they ran out of time (EA probably presurign them) reading other posts it seems some very goo dcontent was cut, why - who knows?

Addign 3 more months to release and gettign in what BW watned to do I bet this game ranks 9.5+ from all.

That said, that article is great and it nice to see a gaming site have the balls to write it unlike IGN

The only reason you want us to cut it out is because its right and points out even deeper flaws in the so called artistic ending

Disagree with Woo all you want, disagree with the endings all you want (I know I hate the endings), but there are still community rules.  Woo's job is to enforce those rules.  A reply like,

"/bump"

is considered spam by the ToS that we all agree to when signing up.  The only thing attacking Woo will do is get this topic shut down. Please be respectful.

Some very much appreciated journalistic integrity. A writer who took time to actually do research before forming an op-ed instead simply assuming everyone is being a whiny child.

Wait, so you don't think you deserve a say?

Good call there, buddy.

 See, this guy understands the points. We're not a bunch of screaming, logicless kids who feel we're entitled to the right to change a story. We -were- a bunch of trusting, faithful fans who were completely LIED to and had the entire belief system in this game we followed for 5 years shredded before us and had the charred remains crammed down our throat, then had a sandy pile of 'download future DLC' kicked in our eyes.

Yeah you know, Bioware has bumbled stuff in Dragon Age alot. I was pretty dissatisifed with the Awakening expansion, especially with the fact my party members, all of which I'd grown to know and love over the course of Origins, were absent. Even though the ending had Zevran, Lelianna, Shale and Alistair at least still adventuring with me. The expansion seemed more worried about inviting in new players, seeming to encourage just starting a new character over importing your old one. Then I was even more bitter about DA2 not having any of those characters, including my Warden in it. I decided to get it after playing the demo, cause I can't ignore even an average  fantasy game, and even though it's not anywhere near as good as Origins it still grew on me and I enjoy it for what it is.

But, I figured, even Bioware's worst is better than many studios best. And Dragon Age is kind of the B team. After how phenomenal Mass Effect 2 was I knew I could always count on Mass Effect to be great. I pre-ordered the special edition of ME3, I got me a N7 hoodie, and the  first two days I played it were bliss. I knew it couldn't be anything but awesome.

Then I started to hear grumblings about the ending. Well, I thought, fans are fans. Fans always complain. It can't be that bad, and even if it's a little lame so what. The game's still great.

Then I saw the endings myself. 

That's where I draw the line. I can't abide by such incompetence. Especially with such a beloved and otherwise fantastic game series.

Yes, I think we do deserve some kind of answer, be it that nothing will change, or something is coming...anything is better than silence. Even financial-centric magazines are pointing out the liabilities business-wise of giving your customers the cold shoulder. Right or wrong, we do deserve some response.

 Tell everyone you can about this. I can't imagine Bioware will keep quiet for much longer

[Lunaluxlepus]

This article poignantly explains and analyzes what we were truly saying. I am so glad there were someone in the medium understanding what this all is about. Not only 'Hold the line' movement participators, but Bioware story writers and those biggots calling us names, should read this article.

Spread this article people, if you can!

[Filby08]

Perfectly summed up how I feel. Far more eloquently than I ever could.

[KadivyaSky]

Good article.

[Verit]

Good to finally see some support for the fans, the article goes a long way of explaining what's wrong with the ending.

[eoinnx03]

Perfect!

[Sywen]

Great reading. Summed it up perfectly.
