Wait, I knew they wrote Emily Wong out via twitter (which I agree was a rubbish move - she should have been on the Normandy in the place of Allers - that would have been a great touch rather than including some IGN hack who couldn't voice act/emote) ... but I didn't know they wrote out a bunch of the other Citadel characters. Were more specifics given? Or is that non-descriptive tweet from Mac all we have to go on? Either way, I'm disappointed. I USE twitter and I still missed that.

What happened is somebody asked Mac a plot related question on Twitter, and he had the temerity to answer it, and so the BSN is now excoriating BW.

Honestly, if I were them, I'd get rid of this place.

The writing out of characters via Twitter is either poor writing or just lazy. Yes I am bitter that Bioware undid all of the citadel defense force via Twitter.

You've stated this before, but where did you read this? I can't seem to find it.

[xxskyshadowxx]

Wow. Just wow.

But it's "art!"

[CRISIS1717]

WOW WTH?! I just assumed they just overlooked her character, but they killed her off on a twitter feed?

What a joke, what a disgrace...

[Vhalkyrie]

An obvious marketing gimmick. I didn't know about it. It should have been Emily Wong on the Normandy, not Allers.

It was already posted in this thread... from Mac Walters: "Some escaped before the arms were closed. But for many... Bad times."

i would love to have Emily Wong on my ship instead of that annoying voiced Chobot... why was she even in the game? did she lick another psVito and won a competition?

Heaven forbid they put plot details that are rather important, like the fate of the people on the citadel, in the game. I wouldn't even be as mad if he had said had you put together the defense force they are holed up on the citadel resisting the Reapers. But no, it's a generic bandaid over a plot point that disregards everything you do for the citadel.

Aha, it's from Mac Walters' twitter account. Thanks!

I didn't even know Emily Wong died, had it not been this thread. A email on the Normandy would have been better. Not on twitter.

Emily Wong's dead and this is how I find out about it. According to the wiki she died in a badass way so at least I'll have that to console me. They should have put in a rolling news feed itself in the game to put out this sort of information.

I haven't been this down since finding out that urbane debonair poetry spouting Krogan from Nos Astra in ME2 had died. He left a widow and had a daughter. He was awesome, the Krogan George Plimpton.

The Citadel closing and people escaping would have made such a great cutscene to get players even more invested. Lots of potential wasted...again.

Yeah, it's like when they came to the end they ran out of time and wanted to wrap things up as fast as possible.

How could any self respecting ME fan not check the twitter?
It was so heart pounding to wait for the twitter updates

I don't "do" twitter.  I also don't own one of these mobile computational doobries.  Bit sad at the way it was done, I liked Emily.

My guess is Wong was going to come on board but EA/IGN worked out a deal and rather than give us a choice of character they try to force Chobot on us.

I expect Chris P. to come in here and lock the thread in a whirlwind-like frenzy now. Look what happened to the PR thread when people insinuated that EA/Bioware paid off the gaming media.

[Zaknaberrnon]

I followed the twitter feed as it was being written. I actually got tears in my eyes when I read it, especially the ending.

how could we have had such an amazing buildup to have it all end with something that makes no sense and destroys all our choices and replayablility?

How is that poor right? It show new depth to the invasion...It humanised it and showed the fear and horror of it. Any on ewho thinks it's bad writing just does not get it.

[Zaknaberrnon]

ps guys please stop with the accusastions about money stuff and buying reviews etc.
that was the main reason the PR thread got locked.

remain civil.
Our Choices Should Matter.
Hold the Line.

Not on twitter.

An in-game Citadel news announcement would've been better.

I'm not sure how to link to a single post, but if you ctrl+f spoiler you can find it.

Thanks.  That's just sad.

Yes, it is. It's at least as bad as the ending itself in my opinion.

Wait...how on earth wouldthe citidel defence force stop a reaper invasion?
