I'm sorry to say, I'm done with BioWare. I've erased all three parts from my hard drive and I don't wish to install them again. I've bought all DLC for part 1 & 2 (except the armor packs) and was never so enthusiastic for the release of a game in 24 years of gaming.

I see what you did to the ending. I understand what you did to the ending. I just completely disagree that is was fitting to the series or even the genre. You lost your edge, BioWare. Many RPG players will agree with me that you made an interactive story into a piece of mediocre, standard and market-conformist "artistic" drivel. You failed to deliver a fitting RPG ending to a majestic RPG series. You really, REALLY missed the target there.

I will not buy DLC. I will not download the new endings. I won't be buying DA3, because DA2 was also going donwhill compared to its predecessor and time/deadline were an issue there as well. (Yes, I said 'as well') It has made me sad, very sad.
I can't believe you truly support this ending to be the best for the series. I had envisioned a wide arranged of possibilities, ranging from utter failure and sacrifice to the oft critisized rainbows and ponies. It's a gargantuan task, but I thought you could do it. If anyone could, you could. But you didn't... okay. My bad.

I saw the game shift towards another audience. The MP part was clearly intended to lure more players from other genres, but it has alienated you core, geeky rpg fanbase that wallowed in what Mass Effect 1 and 2 offered us: a wide arrange of personal victories, drama and decisions. ME3 took that all away and seemed more fitting for teenagers who want to be the ultimate space marine than a mature audience looking for emotional immersion and escape from our daily sorrows.

I'm sorry, it feels like I've lost a friend here. One that I could share my interests with and there even was a time that when someone asked what kind of games I liked, I only had to say; BioWare's.

I will forget that Mass Effect existed, and herald BG2 as your greatest work.

Goodbye BioWare,
You've been wonderful

So, Bioware decided to stick with an "artistic vision"?

Well, Mass Effect is dead.
All three games are going to a place where other disposable, forgettable games reside.

It was a fun ride while it lasted until the abrupt heart-rending realization of how much time was wasted with ME universe. That was artistically done indeed. Gratz.
You really excelled in shifting developer priorities from telling good stories to danbrownesque speculative nonsensical fiction.

It was not about lack of closure, or plot holes or understanding the ending.

It was about lying to fans. You promised and didn't deliver,hiding behind vague statements about artistic integrity.

And I have had so much fun watching almost each of ME3 writer who was interviewed pre-release stripped of their mantles, so to speak, I might vomit.


Agreed.

Mass Effect will only be remembered now as a game to compare other terrible endings to.  It will be recalled in derisive comments between gamers about bad writing, plot holes, lies, and failures.

I don't hate the ending, i don't really accept it neither, and yes i played the entire trilogy, like 5 times the first, 4 the second, twice the last.

It's not because some people don't agree on some fans points out that they are not truelly fans, i mean come on, respect opinion of anyone as long as anyone respect yours, not that hard.

If people are happy with the ending, good for them, if some are not, too bad and i can understand too, period.

At least wait tomorrow to see what will be said, in addition to this news, it's a start.


they have had little to no word for a month after screwing us over I'm sorry if I can't be exactly smiles and a cup of tea about that

I'm so deppressed right now.. so they will give me closure and epilogue to their awful ending that slaps me in the face with "yo you just killed of your whole victory fleet and everyone else in the galaxy, oh yeah btw your friends will never see you again you won't get a better ending!" now that makes me feel good!

Glad they are going this route

Are there going to be more/different endings or ending DLCs in the future?
No. BioWare strongly believes in the team's artistic vision for the end of this arc of the Mass Effect franchise. The extended cut DLC will expand on the existing endings, but no further ending DLC is planned.


They are sticking to their guns... Sure they might lose one or two die hard fanatics but most of us will remain.


And showing just how arrogant they are.  After the entire ending making almost no sense and people shot through like swiss chees, they stand by utter failure.

Psst! Don't feed the troll!

"One way corridor you say?  Bah, there were many access points to this hallway!!!  You just couldn't see them through the space magic and the invincible Keepers!!"


so amazing I just had to quote this lol ^^


I think most of the players who like or accept the ending are probably people who didn't play the entire triliogy or just wasn't invested in it like most of us who are hardcore fans of the series


Well will see if bioware really does listen or fall by the way side though it is begining to look that way


gomen I keep quoting this because of the harbinger comment lol


Harbringer says:
"Oh what's that god child?  Ok, I'll let him go, he needs to know the truth.  Ammo is an illusion, like all the choices you made thus far Shepard!"


Harbinger Ea: you know your loss of money hurts you

Lie?????? what lie? The 16 ending thing????? Are you sure thats a lie? Depending on who is still a live and what not means there would be more than 16.  But thats just semantics I will readly admit they should do something to the pin head who said that.

Bioware you can listen to this. I give you my word that I will never again by anything from you or EA. I will also, make sure to tell people that think of buying anything from you about how you lied to your customers and insulted them with this free dlc of nothing.

They didn't hear od read wrong. They just don't give a damn.

"Hah. We got your money, so screw you. See you next failure! I mean-- game!"

I mean, why else would they completely ignore lore they created? Well... Maybe if they were Stephenie Meyer...

How do you fill in bad writing, lies, and failures?  Plot holes, maybe, but just with more BS.
