The fact that he actually cares about winning and being right is funny.


You guys...come on.


What? I think it's funny.


The fact that you all are having a hard time debating like adults is sad.


What are you even talking about?

That person's behavior, going on about winning and being right and how that other person is wrong.

I thought it was funny. So I said that I thought it was funny.

Because Mass Effect is an ongoing commercial enterprise and Bioware wants to continue selling us DLC for the game, as well as keeping us a loyal fanbase that will purchase future Bioware games. Considering that about 90% of the fanbase hates the ending to the Mass Effect series, Bioware has a major PR problem on its hands. Choosing to ignore that fanbase risks alienating customers and isn't good business.

Also, Bioware would have every right to charge for DLC that provides a more satisfying conclusion. It really should be a no brainer for them, as it is a win-win situation. They'll make money from the DLC and generate some goodwill among a fanbase that feels like its complaints have been heard and addressed.

I'm lost. What was it exactly that Bioware promised us?

My biggest issue (as with anything) is consistency. After you end the game, and it ends and the credits end, you find yourself back in the shoes of your Shepard awaiting more DLC and adventure. How can that be?

Here's a better question.

Why shouldn't they?

50,000 people want it. Most of them will pay. They are a business.

The ending is underdevelop and full of holes. Anyone who carefully read this link will notice : http://www.gamefront...fans-are-right/
IMHO the end was simplified to make possible the release in march. Take into account all choices and make the ending according, would delay the project. Simple as that.

That's a valid point, but any reason besides that?

I answered your question already.

You can't say "beside that" on this subject.

I'll say it again, company have only one purpose, making money, it's an economical fact !

As long as the company make money they can do whatever they please, if they begin to loose money because they made a decision that crippled they market support (Bioware fan that will buy their great work for all of their project), their freedom to do "their art" would be more restricted.

The problem is either menace is false and Bioware don't have to worry, either it's real and then they have to estimate how much.

I don't think that loosing a few fan is bad thing or bad sign, it happend at evey new product, as long as you get more "new" fan and keep your potential market at least as big as before, it's fine.
Now, noticeable amout are voicing they disagree, it's not about majority or minority, and even if it was just a 20%, it's a f**king BIG number from an economical point of view, we are talking in millions of dollars, not just cents.

Bioware have the responsability to pay their staff and ensure their future, "art" alone can't help it, risking to sacrifice a part of their market (fan base) is very risky.
There is human behind Bioware, and they need to pay the bills too. I doubt they would work for free to finish their game for "art sake".

Does ANYONE actually, really, truly believe that Bioware will change the ending?

I mean really?

you want a reason? lemme see, a LARGE portion of the fanbase disliked the ending, with such a dent in the fanbase of bioware they lose potential purchases of upcoming games (because they f-ed up with DA2 and me3's ending) without purchases of the fanbase they lose their money and finally go broke. Nobody wants that and i'm not saying they should do everything we (the fans) ask, but if they want to retain their position they'd damn well change the ending with a patch.

also i shouldn't need to pay for stuff that should be in the game itself.

Finally, a sanctuary for those of us that liked the endings. Where we can come and rest and recover with others like us before going off to fight the good fight.

I think there gonna do it. Ea is just as greedy as activision. If they wanna make a boatload of money they will make it happen. I guarantee those who like the plotholes, and the non sence will end up buying it any way.

At first I didn't like the endings but after I had time to rationally think it over. I really appreciate they way Bioware ended the game. The only two things I would change would be to remove the StarChild all together and have a epic showdown between Harbinger.
