Hey guys, one thing I want to stress is to not make any assumptions until we are able to give you more information. Right now, anything about free vs paid is speculation only. I think most of you get that, but just want to stress it.

If the ending stays the same there is no point in seeing what they change outside of youtube

[AlarisT]

I think a better ending would have been to have Bioware make you question whether Shepard is indoctrinated more openly. "The illusive man was right all along" was an idea that should have been further tied into the climax of the story. Imagine spinning that choice wheel as your mind is blown wondering if the paragon choice is actually the renegade one and so on. Yes these elements already exist, but they should have been much more enunciated.

I don't know how Bioware can "fix" their ending from a technical standpoint. They can query the choices you made since ME1 and add to the ending cinematic, but is that something people are going to want to pay for without added gameplay? Players should be given the choice to sacrifice or save Shepard and ride off into the sunset - to destroy the mass relays or save them, etc. etc. Player choice FTW.

Yet some are still are angry and making comments like "Bioware is not the same anymore" or "Bioware are way to money hungry." PLEASE STOP THIS. Bioware does care about what we think or what we have to say. It is ONLY because of players constructive critism that Bioware now have plans to create future ending DLC. They plan to address people's concerns and bring closure to the story like many of us our requesting. 

So here's what I don't appriciate from people, direct attacks on Bioware, EA, or the players who infact liked the endings. That needs to stop. If this game and it's players and also Bioware bring out such anger from within you, then why are you still here? While I did not like the ending myself, I never once threw a tantrum and insulted the community.

On a different note, I do not believe for one second though that the DLC will be free. I would GLADLY pay for it. Not because I'm some blind fan boy who throw money at anything called "Mass Effect," but simply because making DLC requires time and money. So hey, oh well I didn't like the ending, Bioware is trying to extend it for us, so here's another 10 bucks. I really don't care about it. I just want more Mass Effect content to play. Thanks for reading.

How about Bioware fix the damn game before you try to convince me they care?  15 days later, and I still can't import MY Shepard.

When that's fixed, I'll get back to you on them "caring".

how the hell you know they will be making a new ending?

EXACTLY!

They haven't said they are making a new ending at all.  They said they will provide more information and closure for those who want it in April DLC.

That is far from "we are redoing the ending, because we now understand the glaring plot-holes and the profoundly unsatisfying way it was ended."

They have not said that at all.  They are intentionally being vague lest they be accused of promising something they yet again fail to deliver in April.

I'm just sad that Mass Effect 1-3 was such a phenomenal achievement all the way until the last 10 minutes.  It's so sad that they made such a poor choice to end the triology.  Mass Effect has been my favorite game Trilogy of anything I've ever played.  It literally feels like someone in the family died with the way it ended.  I was prepared to see Shephard pilot the Normandy head first into Harbinger's mother-ship....but this...is just.  I was sad for Bioware.  I really was.

@OP:

I hate to burst your bubble... but they havent promised an ending DLC. They have hinted at one in the very vaguest possible terms. So Im not getting my hopes up.

Besides... again. Even their Twitter denies a significant alteration of the game.

Um. Hello Indoctrination Theory.

No alteration required.

Comes 'ready to rumble from the rubble'.

MP additions not-included nor cared about.
See packaging for more details.

Faith I have.  The line I am holding.

So many times this!!!!

let us smash the space bar (A) or (X) like mad men while that **** crap goes in front of our eyes, let us WORK to overcome indoctrination for a little bit more, and give us 1 more hour of SOLO Shepard fighting an almost impossible battle (MP Gold kind of battle).

Post indoctrination Shepard:


Doesn't have Tactical Pause
Has a max of 1 Hour before indoctrination beats you (a sanity bar would be EPIC) and the more the bar depletes the more illusions (enemies) Shepard will see.
and a boss battle to reach the REAL ending, let the one we have be the ending if you fail to overcome indoctrination, give us an epic fight and a reason to die for.


Also space child needs to be Harby playing mind tricks with you, and no philosofical nonsense attached to the Reapers logic; you don't have to give us all the answers as ME4 is supposed to happen, leave some of those for the next Mass Effect, BUTgive us the answers related to our Shepards those are the ones we trully care about.

[SnakeSNMF]

.. I seriously detest the "indoctration" theory and anyone who believes it.

If Bioware wanted your Shepard to be indoctrinated, they'd make it quite clear. There is no theory about that. It's BIoware writing. It's absolute.

[PyroTechNiK]

Only time will tell if they are full of hot air or not.

AMEN!!!

Please -- it's very misleading since you CANNOT get the "last breath" ending without MP and I don't play MP so the ME series is dead for me.  Absolutely no replay value for me at least.

[byzantine horse]

It better be for free, else I will just youtube the ending.

[Pkxm]

wouldn't have to be full on indoctrinated

Game content initiative does not equal "Bioware is working on ending DLC."

Please research the word "assumption."

[AlphaSierra]

I wouldn't mind paying for it, if it comes with more than just a new ending. If they add more multiplayer maps, weapons, and stuff like that... Sure.

are hard at work on a number of game content initiatives that will help answer the questions, providing more clarity for those seeking further closure to their journey.

The ambiguity of this is so massive it could mean anything. It could be a DLC that has nothing to do with the ending, but while on the “mission” you find a codex explaining the Star Child. It could be a simple conversation about the Catalyst. It's obvious at this point that the fans interpretation of what closure means is vastly different than Bioware's.

This is in addition to our existing plan to continue providing new Mass Effect content and new full games, so rest assured that your journey in the Mass Effect universe can, and will, continue.

The implications of this statement eludes to other ME projects and not exclusive to Commander Shepard's journey, but yours. That could be a MMO, FPS, more MP content. At this point, they threw the fans a song and dance—they just don't want to reveal what song it is and what dance we're suppose to do. That way, we'll focus all the attention trying to figure out the notes and rhythms and won't remember that we're dancing in the dark.

[Arkitekt]

Now we can attribute the "ambiguity" of it due to PRSPEAK or due to it being still in the works and still unclear exactly what is going to happen. Another possibility is that they already know what they will bring and are trying to make a surprise.

[sgt_melin]

Don't care if it free och not...im dam happy you making something.

[dorktainian]

charging for a new ending is just an insult to everyone that bought this game. while they are at it why not just give us the finger?

^This. Thank you Bioware for listening to your fans! 

[Valcutio]

I have no complaints with paying for DLC that will give us an extended ending that does the series justice. Do I think the "right" thing to do is make it for free? Yes. But I'm just happy they're doing it at all.

[TheChosen0ne]

They said they will just add more stuff to explain some BS, not alter anything. What they need to do is alter the damn ending by getting rid of it and adding a real ending like ME1 and ME2'S ending but it don't have to be a happy ending, just a non stupid ending.
