Yes, but he has contact with the team at Bioware. By you guys, I kinda meant just Bioware.

Hey Geoff, thanks for stopping by :) the app is awesome, I also have the Portal 2 one and it's a great take on gamedev insight. What does interesting a dev company in a Final Hours project involve? Obviously Bioware and Valve are one of the biggest names in the industry, so it's interesting to know :)

He is a journalist. That means he has as much contact as any journalist.......in other words, they aren't going to tell him anything that they aren't ready to release officially. READ THE OP. He specifically states why he is here and what questions he is here to answer. Stick to Final Hours app related questions.

Although he does say: "I'd love to hear what you guys thought of the story."  But, yeah, obviously he can't say anything about future DLC or unreleased info.  I wish he'd come back already!

He was talking about the story he wrote for the app.....as in the Final Hours story, not the ME3 story. If you read his entire OP again you should be able to understand the context of what he meant.

The story he covered, not the story of the game. 

Edit: ninjasss everywhere.

Hello Geoff!

Thank's for the App..use it on iPad and it's great!

Can you say anything about on what kind of DLC Casey and his Team worked on before the release of ME3?

Ok i understand you cannot say something in detail but maybe if it is about something in the middle of the game, only some new sidequests, or is it about going really big mindblowing stuff??

thank's in forward

Ok, I give up. Everyone feel free to keep asking him questions there is NO way he will answer. I am sure that won't be a complete waste of your (and his) time.

My question was ok, he should answer it(Page 6).
I don't understand what he does, I assume he took note of where the Bioware team screwed up on Mass effect 3.

Hello Geoff

First of thank you for coming by here anyone who does must have a quad to face this community.

Regarding the Final Hours app I'm afraid I have not purchased it though I'm glad you made it available for so many platforms. Normally I would've purchased this since it's available for PC and only $2.99. Not that it's your fault but right now I am not buying anything Mass Effect related, lest it be construed as further support of Bioware while they have not fixed the endings. If they do make satisfactory changes I look forward to purchasing this app.

If Bioware does the right thing and fixes the endings I wonder would it be possible to do an update to the app or add supplemental content regarding the ending controversy/reaction/(hopefully) changes?

His twitter confirms it.  This thread was also shut down by a mod until it was proven to be real.

Just curious.

Ok. i'm sorry, But at this point i have no answers about his app. It was great and i appreciate to read and get this inside look, how's the studio looking, some private things about Casey's live, the Artworks, memos and thoughts from the dev's. I mean it was just great that Geoff does this app! When i have questions about this inside story i'll be back :)

Are you good at throat punching people? And if you are, if I gave you a list of people to throat punch that might be Canadian would you be willing to do it?

My actual question: During your time there, was there ANY objection to the endings from anyone else on the team? It's a disturbing thought that there was nobody on the ME3 team that realized the ending was trash ...

Geoff,

I would like to know, in your time with bioware, how much focus and time was on the ending?

Sadly the note page in the app makes it seem like it was a snap decision, is this correct?

I'll give you a question that won't require you to panic over your answer.

What is your favorite aspect of the Mass Effect series and why?

Once again, stuff that, even if he knew the answer to, you are NOT going to get a response on. If everyone keeps this up, the thread is going to end up getting locked before Geoff can get a chance to respond to any of the legit questions. Hopefully the mods only delete the non-topic stuff instead of locking the whole thing.

Thank you for this opportunity, sir. I am very curious about the social phenomenon that is the use of online communication to connect, gather, and galvanize fans of like mind, specifically Retake--those who found the ending to be unsatisfactory/unacceptable storytelling relative to what came before it.

1. Do you have any insights to share about the reactions on both sides of this? Perhaps some behind-the-scenes reactions or analysis at BioWare? Or an interview with the most prominent members of Retake?

2. Will you be conferring with the social anthropologist (IIRC, her area of expertise) Ms. Jessica Merizan on her findings about this seemingly unprecedented level and organization of fan reaction and its psychological causes?

Thank you, again. If such information were added to Final Hours, I would most certainly buy it.

Relax man. Why are you so upset by people's questions? If he can't answer them, he will ignore them. Simple enough.

I doubt he will be able to give spoilers (if he knows any), so dont expect him to say much about what will come in the future

Is Geoff coming here to fan the flames or something?

Because all his APP did was fan the flames of the BioWare community against ME3.

Regarding theories on the ending, I'm not really the person to answer those questions unfortunately. I can only comment on what I reported in the story.


Unfortunately, that eliminates any questions I may have for you, but I do appreciate that you cared enough to come here and do this.
