YOU PRESS A BUTTON, SPECULATION HAS TO HAPPEN.

BUTTON = SPECULATION.


SPECULATION = AWESOME.

Can I join?

Send a message to either FeralEwok or DiebytheSword.  They're the head honchos of the project.

Well there you have it folks. They really are this incompetent.

What about you? I doubt you can sell a dozen stories to millions of strangers, get hundreds of awards, graduate from college and get a PHD, practice medicine, create a million dollar company, and create not one but three universes full of lore. Yeah.. but they're incompetent. you're an idiot.

I just can't believe I actually feel... hurt. Like I've been punched in the face.

It's not artistic vision. Artistic vision implies that you care about your product. If they cared about the product, they wouldn't have half-assed it or contradicted their own themes and lore.

And it sure as hell wasn't for the fans.

It's like they don't care about the wonderful universe they've created. It's like they don't care about all the people who have come to enjoy it so much. It's like they don't even care about themselves, like they can't even be assed to maintain their own integrity and standard of quality.

Well, lookie here, Bioware: You know why I enjoyed your games so much?

Because when I played them, I honestly felt like the people behind it gave a damn.

If and when I make my own sci-fi universe, I swear to never let my passion die at the most critical moment like this. And if it does, if my heart's truly not in it, then I'll hand my work over to the people who still care. The fans. The rest of the team. Whatever.

I think I've finally found my life goal.

Guys, I'm creating the next great sci-fi IP. Who's with me?

(Feral, Dieby, and the rest of the gang: I already know you're in on it. Let's do this together!)

I blame this movie!

Explains NOTHING and yet consider one of the greatest artistic thing ever.
The worst influence ever and just hit ME3!


Video games as an art also now screwed do to that since Mass Effect has a ton of influence.

Yeah I doubt EA has any patience for pretentious, self-indulgent, wanna-be artists with delusions of grandeur that cost them profit.

Hahaha, I can't believe this, but for once, I'm hoping that EA is as much of a soulless, profit-driven company just so they can force DLC, or even an apology, out of BioWare.


At this point, I'm not sure which of these unlikely scenarios will happen first: ending DLC or an apology.

Both would require a huge kick in the ass from EA, imo.

I'm surprised EA havn't stepped in with their Hammer of Great Justice and started clobbering Bioware for this. They've done MASSIVE damage to their rep and EA's and this is only the beginning, it's getting worse by the day. They've also done HUGE damage to SWTOR, EA's goldmine/Activision challenger, you know, that little title that had the biggest development budget of all time?. Forbes really got it right.

EA s executives will make the reapers look like kittens .

I think you are confused. Allow me to explain. Ray Muzyka: EA Executive. Greg  Zeschuk: EA Executive. Casey Hudson: EA Employee. Mac Walters: EA Employee.

There is no Bioware. It's an illusion. And there is no goal but money. The fact that the rest of the team manged to come up with a decent game is entirely incidental.

"But then me and Casey talked and decided, lets keep the conversation "High level". Give you the details that you need to know, but don't get into the stuff that you don't need to know."

Have you guys been smoking something? Out of the ****ing blue you put in the Star Child that punches a hole in the plot so large the entire combined fleet of the galaxy's races can fit through. High level, my arse. It's stupid, makes no sense and shouldn't have been there in the first place.

"Hi! I'm the Star Child. I'm gifted with Space Magic. Choose a color!"

Last time I buy any of your games, that's for sure, BioWare.

They only thing that was right in the ending. " The created will always destroy the creators".

You created your own demise with this ending, Good luck fighting your way out. I offer no more support to your company.

Art imitating life. How apt.

[Evercrow]

Am I the only one, who noticed a scene,where Shepard wakes up near the conduit, and looks around, and sees his squadmates...Or this was just added to the OP recently?

Oh. I see. This is already deleted. Spoilers,i guess. And you can still have hope,people, devs could actually make something decent from this scrapped material

...I'd say the fact that they did all of that and then did this actually speaks to their incompetence, really. 

They actually thought this would work?

[IsleySilverlord]

Guys, it's all clear. They've said it in interviews, it's said in the "making-of" notes, Casey Hudson himself made it clear. NO ENDINGS DLC. As much as I HATE it: ONLY before-end dlc.
Now all I hope is this turns against them, not buying any dlc, game, or product from BioWare ever again. Promise. I'll do all I can so people around me do the same.
I'll leave the ship , but I'll take as many as I can with me. I'm hurt.

[Reptilian Rob]

Wow, wow, just wow.

No words, just deep depression.

[Spectre_Shepard]

how is this even possible?

full closure was promised.... how could they deliberately decide on speculation?

They broke a simple rule in Creative Writing 101.  When finishing a story, simply finish it.

Instead of going with the correct ending or the right ending, they wanted to be flashy.  That's a case of the writer bending the story to his/her will instead of simply allowing it to work itself out. 

This was talked about in the "writers' opinions" thread.

"Simply finish the story."  Or, "Let the story finish itself."

Stephen King once said, "It is the story, not he who tels it."  [paraphrasing]

Yeah, I'm a writer myself, and finishing the story is more important than what they thought was a great idea. <_<

 

Exactly ... I am ameteur and I know this....  I just can't

really right  know my brain is having trouble  grasping that they though this was good.  

They also broke over half the rules in the "reader-writer contract." 

• Don't treat the reader like they're stupid. 
• Don't change the rules of your universe once they're established. 
• Don't change your style of storytelling after the first page (scene, chapter, conversation, etc). 
• Don't trick the reader by foreshadowing one thing and revealing another. 
• Don't leave any foreshadowing unfulfilled.

And, of course, provide a good ending to allow for an emotionally satisfying experience. 

"And what qualifies as a great
ending? The release of tension that come from the sense of rightness,
the feeling that this is the way things should—had—to be, whether
bittersweet or happily-ever-after."

They fluffed on all of that.

So are Squadmates were supposed to die at the end? I'm kinda happy they cut that lol.

[Vovea]

I actually booted up a new game a few hours ago because all the twitter wink wink, nudge nudge, keep your saves had me the tiniest optimistic.

This "Starchild is serious. We meant the endings. Indoctrination? What indoctrination?" post has killed that little hope. I guess I'll be selling my CE tomorrow before the price drops even more and my copy is worth three buttons and a sticker.

[fayt002]

epic final boss should of been shepard with a targetting laser for fleet strikes vs harbinger. like the other reaper fight but more badass. and then change 90% of the rest of the ending.

If only I could cancel my Swtor account twice...

Damn, I purchased the Digital Deluxe N7 version.

T-T I can't even sell the freaking game back...

I signed on to this forum only to let Bioware know how frustrated and disappointed I am with this ending.

It's just terrible.

Same story here <.< I feel such an idiot for buying the digital version... I can't return it... I can't even burn it =_=
