Honestly, he has a point. Whether or not the ending does justice to the series is irrelevant next to the greater implications of Bioware's actions.

EDIT: For those of you who are dismissinghis words because he hasn't seen the ending, you miss the point of the article. This isn't about the ending. This isn't about whether or not the ending was a satisfying conclusion, the point of this article is that if Bioware changes the ending, the implications of their actions would be far reaching, and setting a very dangerous precedent. You dont need to have played the game to realize that.

anyone who hasnt played ME3s ending yet, or let alone hasnt even played ME1 yet, has absolutely no worth to me.

the article instantly becomes pointless when he says "i havent played ME3 yet."

and more imprtnatnly to me, i dont think a change to ME3 is going to mean anytihg to the gaming community or video games of the future. the changeing of endings hasnt started with ME3. ITS BEEN DONE BEFORE!!

and who the heck is stealing or borrowing ideas from bioware anyways? ive never played a game where the devs thought "lets make this like a bioware game" ive certainly played a bioware game or two where the idea was to copy an alrready existing game. so exactly what developers of the futre care at all about what bioware does or doesnt do?

Stopped reading at this:

I don’t know what the ending of Mass Effect 3 entails, and I don’t care. I haven’t even played Mass Effect 3 yet. Hell, I’m still working through the first one at the moment. But despite that lack of personal contact with and investment in the issue

I wouldn't change the endings. I'd tweak them. I have amazing brilliant ideas, but I will only share them if someone pay me a million dollars. BioWare, I'm your salvation, contact me, make me rich and I'll save your asses from the crowd.

Yeah that's frakking silly and insulting. So it's just a click bait article? Count me out, I'm not adding to the clicks.

Indeed. Most fans themselves who heard about the ending's backlash thought the reaction was ridiculous until they got there themselves and it set in just how destructive it was to the prior experience.

He doesn't have a good point. The current ending sucks balls in so many levels it's vital for Bioware to edit/expand it to keep paying customers happy.


" “Hey, BioWare caved in for their fans, so you can bloody well do the same”. That is the mantra that will spread across the already disgustingly self-entitled online gaming community any time a developer did anything a few fans didn’t like."

/facepalm

I could eat that article but it really isnt worth it. Bottom Line is that the author didnt play the game and has this statement credited to her:

"Fans didn't give up on Star Wars just because of this guy (Photo of Jar Jar Binks)"

Wonder what world she lives in?

Sorry suffer through the ending if you expect to be taken seriously here.

" I haven’t even played Mass Effect 3 yet."

This invalidates the rest of the article pretty much.

What's with all this 'slippery slope/dangerous precedent' rubbish? This kind of thing isn't even remotely new.

You do, however, need to have actually experienced what people are talking about to be in any position to appreciate their point of view, or comment on the ramifications.

At least, you do if you actually want to be taken remotely seriously.

The precedent was already set by Conan Doyle when he ressurrected Sherlock Holmes following outcry from the fans. More recently Bethesda released DLC to change the ending of Fallout 3 so the player character does not die.

Like what heck is with all the 'setting a precedent' excuse? It's already been done and the world didn't end for the industry!

I don't see the point of this article unless if he'd actually played the series.

I've seen plenty of bad endings, and bad games. Never once I've started to dwell in it and ask for change. So I don't see why doing it now would cause some mass hysteria demanding endings changed. Even now I don't think they should cut what we have, just add to in one way or another.

"A few moaning fanboys can be a very dangerous thing indeed."
"But I’m not here to kick the protesters."

Contradiction.

"I don’t know what the ending of Mass Effect 3 entails, and I don’t care. I haven’t even played Mass Effect 3 yet. Hell, I’m still working through the first one at the moment."

Your argument is now invalid.

Next?

The precedent already exists. Alan Wake, Fallout 3, hell even EVE has had to backtrack on functionality/features due to player demand, even if it's not story related, they had to revise their vision of the game based on player reaction.

You mean the ones that pay their bills? Why is this being made out to be worse than selling out to EA in so many places?

Truth. It continues to boggle me how many people with no idea of what the issues are and no experience with the product continue to rant about it.
