Who wrote the ending?

[justW353]

Guys, do you really have harass the guy? He came here, probably knowing he was gonna be slammed, to answer questions relating to the app.

Not sure if he's even still here, but I'll bite. How long was the app actually being planned? Was it a running process with the game's developers, or was it just kind of a last minute thing?

I think it's a great idea...you get a good look into the developers creative processes (regardless of how I feel about the ending lol).

Welcome. Mr.Keighley do you think your app name "The Final Hours of Mass Effect 3" isn't a prophecy in this stormy days?

[mupp3tz]

GEOFF KEIGHLEY,

Did you get a sense that the ending was sort of rushed in any way? Also, is there any truth to the rumor that the ending was a product of work done solely by Casey Hudson and Mac Walters by themselves?

P.S. -- Welcome.  Apologies for the initial distrust, but, this is the internetz.

First off, thanks for joining us here on the forums, let's hope the trolling has died down now someone has actually linked to your twitter.

As you may have guessed, you're really only going to have questions about the ending brought forward. I don't plan to buck that trend.

Was the script peer reviewed? Not really but kind of absolutely talking about the final mission here. There isn't any indication that they had some sort of editor take a red pen to it and tell them about its problems. Did the whole writing team have a hand in it or was it solely the work of only a couple of people?

Was any indication given to you that the team expected a negative backlash?

How many people were working on this app and how long did it take? Were you there early on in the development process?

Proof?

Final Hours of Mass Effect 3 documentary.

I watch'd it, didn't see anything saying the theory isn't a possibility.

To be fair, its not like they were going to come out and say "yes the indoctination theory is true" or false for that matter. It would kind of go against the whole "lots of speculation" theme.

Any chance of Android versions of your apps?

I just bought the app, how do I download it?

[IronSabbath88]

Hey Geoff, if you're still around, I want to say thanks for taking the time to answer stuff despite some.. rather unpleasant people.

Anyway, I was wondering what you, personally, think of the indoctrination theory? With all the subtle signs throughout the game, do you think it's possible that it may be fact?

Thanks again!

[J717]

So Geoff, did people scare you off. or is this a shameless plug for advertising your app by coming in, saying who you are, answering like 3 questions and then bouncing?

[justW353]

Not sure if he's gonna come back, but I've gotta ask the question I'm sure everyone is wondering about. I'm not sure if you can or will answer this (for whatever reason), and I understand if you choose not to or can't answer, but...

What is your opinion of the ending? I think it'd be great to get some personal insight from you. You don't have to tell us anything important, but if you liked the ending and felt it was entirely satisfying, then I probably missed something. What I mean is, after spending time with the developers and writers and gaining their perspectives, maybe you have a better understanding than we do.

Once again, thanks for coming on.

Unfortunately the net's made us all super cautious, so the momentum sorta tripped and fell. One of those spiffy "bioware" graphics on the forum title could qwell a lot of the doubt.

I just had one question, hopefully this is within your realm of expertise. I've worked at large companies before where the animation groups, writing groups, they were all separated and no one knew what the others were working on...much like Cerberus, now that I think about it! Only the marketers knew the full story at any given time, more or less. From my experience this started out as a way to curb IP leaks to the internet: people worked on a need to know basis. Was that what the office was like during your filming? Were the cinema scenes animated and rendered in house or outsourced?

Many thanks for coming by.

 Hi everyone -

This is Geoff Keighley, the author of The Final Hours of Mass Effect 3.  I thought I'd stop by the forum to answer any questions you have about the app and the story, which is now out for iPad and also PC/Mac. (You can see more details at http://www.me3finalhours.com).

I'd love to hear what you think of the story!  I'll try to respond to as many of you as possible.

Geoff

android version? Not all of us have idevices. Also welcome to the forums!

[Phaedros]

Not keen on AIR but enjoyed the app nevertheless. Looking forward to the next 'episode'.

Thanks for stopping by and apologies for the low-life trolls. It's what they do, disrupt sensible conversation & debate.

[dointime85]

Hey Geoff,

I haven't purchased the app yet but might soon, especially since you intend to add an update including the fan reactions. It's also great to see you show up here (I hope you haven't been scared away yet):

First question is somewhat related to the ending but more about its production process than its content:

How important was the November script leak for the ending as we got it (I've read the leaked script and found the changes to be of a minor nature, even if I thought the lines cut would have made a difference for the better?

Secondly: Were there fears about negative fan reactions on certain aspects of the game (generally, not on the ending specifically)?

Last question: Was there any aspect of the game that you feel the developers were especially proud of?

And suddenly, he was gone.

Ya'll got trolled.

[dointime85]

Addition to my previous post:

Thanks in advance! And I thought of another question: Can I run your app under Linux?

I think he got scared off by the negative response. It was actually him, check his twitter.

Sadly that's going to turn into "Retake's a Bunch of Occupy Hooligans" in the gamer mag headlines instead of "Miracle: Someone Doesn't Lie on the Internet."

Ooooh my bad. Hope he comes back.

Just give Mr.Keighley some time to answer.
