Besides making moar money, gimme a reason why. A reason why besides saying it "sucked" cause that is a matter of preference, and preferences are not fact.
Because in the end, it is their franchise and they can do what they want with it. The haters aren't entitled to anything, nor should they recieve one based off the childish ways they are acting. It is sad to see a group of people so butthurt over a videogame. Seriously what ever happened to getting a job and moving out of mother's basement.
Of course I speak in broad generalizations, but that said Bioware owes you nothing.
Really, there
is no reason other than money, except for perhaps because somone (or a great many someones) at BioWare also think that the endings need to be changed.
But by not changing it, they are pissing off a lot of people, and those people will tell their friends, and those people and their friends will not buy BioWare products, or buy them only at discounted prices, and BioWare will lose money. And, considering that it's a business, losing money is not something that they would want to happen.
You speak of "haters" acting "entitled" and "childish." Yet, from what I've seen in the many "ending-hate" threads,
most (I wouldn't presume to say all, because I know that's not true) people like pretty much all of the game, and
most people are very civil about their complaints. Obviously some people are more volatile and abrasive than others, but I have seen people quickly advise their foul-mouthed peers to tone it down and not be insulting. In fact, the thread that I have been following recently (
http://social.biowar...ndex/10084349/1) is much more civil than this one, tinfoil hats and all.
When you say we feel "entitiled," what I'm understanding is that you think that we think we deserve something, in this case endings that are not what we got (correct me if I'm wrong). Now, there are some people here that have found quotes from BioWare specifically stating that the endings would
not be what we got. Something about "it will not be A, B, or C." You'll forgive me for not looking them up, but they are there, possibly somewhere in this very thread.
Now, to have a company say that they will do some thing, and then not do that thing, is very shady practice. Yes, they also said (as most companies say) that "nothing is set in stone." However, you cannot deny that deliberately stating something and then not delivering on it is an acceptable business practice. Whether or not you agree with the reaction to this decision and the "demands" for a better ending, this is still a pretty shady move.
A sidenote on "demands":
most people are just asking. Some are asking more loudly and more forcefully than others, but it is, ultimately asking. We cannot force BioWare to do anything, so we are asking loudly and instantly (again, some are being real jerks about it, but I can guarantee you that they annoy all of the level-headed people on the forums, whichever side of the argument they are on), because it is all that we can do.
And to all of you people that are tired of the whining: you don't
have to read the various "end-hate" threads, no more than BioWare
has to adjust the ending. If we're bothering you, ignore us. It's not like we're at your house, waving our hands in your face.
And OP: what's up with the comparison of not liking the ending with living in one's mother's basement, or not having a job? That was very rude of you; just because someone cares a lot about a story doesn't mean that they are unemployed, or are reliant on their parents for shelter.
Retour en haut
. It got retracted. It was bioware who stood behind it, and you havent got a foot to stand on. Thanks for trying though.
I am enjoying myself.
