Guys check out this interview with Mr. Hudson:
http://www.theglobea...article2379957/

He implies more or less directly that the Re3take Movement are more or less entitled little brats to him who think they own Mass Effect. Once again evidence that Bioware has learned nothing.

Calling it now, Casey Hudson is the next Peter Molyneux.

I think that's an overly strong response. His answers are exceptionally bland and inoffensive, just like the questions he was asked. An interviewee will almost always take the easy way out unless the interviewer goes after something.

[Aesieru]

Let's also not forget that we do own the story, they are OUR characters, in a universe that was "defined by feedback from the community".

I'm beginning to wonder if "community" means something different to him.

At least Peter Molyneux is trying to put everything he say in the game.

This. There was nothing in that interview at all. OP, care to quote where he called people "entitled" or even implied it?

[MPSai]

He doesn't really say that no. Though I had to laugh at:

we love storytelling and we love to create a magical experience for players.

That sure was some magical nihilism at the end.

[Sparse]

He's actually saying that he intends fans to feel ownership of ME and that means they have done a good job. He doesn't relentlessly defend the ending or anything, he just uses the constructive critcism line - which is fair enough personal abuse etc is out of line.

I think you are being unfair to him (this time).

[Verit]

You shouldn't take what he says out of context. Here's what Hudson says:

You have to have a thick skin, for sure, and recognize that, to some degree, a game is a little bit different than a lot of media because the players feel like they own it. They co-own everything that happens in the world.

In the last line he essentially agrees that players do co-own the game world, so I don't see the problem here. If we jump on every word they say and twist the meaning then we're not going to get anywhere.

At the moment I'm not exactly the greatest living fan of Casey Hudson, but seriously, give the man a break. He's not saying anything that hasn't been vetted by EA's PR team at the moment. He probably isn't allowed to.

[Element Zero]

I'm as disgusted with ME3 as the next guy, but I took offense at nothing Casey said in this interview. In my opinion, it was superficial and bland, from the standpoint of our gripes.

I feel for the guy. I know he cares about Mass Effect. It's been his life's work for the better part of a decade. I'm also very disappointed at how badly the game matches both expectations and Bioware's now infamous promises. Personal attacks are never constructive, but much of the heat Casey and his team is taking is 100% justified.

No, Peter likes to over exaggerate what the case really is.

"You can planet an acorn and come back and find a tree is so new and complicated "

The Truth

You plant a acorn from a story stand point and scene transition years later and it's a tree, nothing new about that what so ever.

Also Peter rarely listens to the fans as well.

[Fuzrum77]

Yeah, I don't agree. I think that's a heavy-handed interpretation. No offense, OP.

[RLesueur]

Yeah, he didn't say anything at all in that interview.

It's not positive or negative.

[Bourne Endeavor]

He more or less reiterated his previous statements. I see nothing to suggest a hostile reaction to Retake. Considering we have seen BioWare employees speak kindly and respectfully to them here, specifically Jessica. Casey would be indirectly insulting his own colleagues' opinions if he was that blatantly vocal, which I did not find. Honestly, you are gasping here mate.

[Monochrome Wench]

Perhaps, perhaps not. Doesn't mean he's still not right though.

Have you even read that interview?  There was nothing in there was said about the Retake Movement being entitled little brats.  It wasn't even brought up.  How about you actually read the article BEFORE you post it?

[Sequin]

All the anti-Casey Hudson rhetoric is growing tiresome...

[LastFadingSmile]

Really not sure where or how you got that out of what he said.

[Gibb_Shepard]

He didn't say such a thing.

Yeah really not sure how the OP has gone from bland, dull article to his angry statement.

[mupp3tz]

People will read what they want to see.

And constantly overdefending him without any reasons why is better how?

[SealKudos]

What? OP, you're blowing things out of proportion.

Nowhere in that interview did I see an exceptionally negative response from Mr. Hudson about the Retake Movement.

@antidave:
No he doesn't , he is there in the capacity of an employee of EA/Bioware and makes a statement, although I resent this so called professional attitude ( I'd rather have him voice his opinion, then people know where he's coming from), you can't blame the guy, if he openly flames ME3 and its ending he wil lose not only his job, but the respect of his co-workers and will never get a job in the industry again , if he openly defends the game and its ending he has to go into hiding for deranged fans
This article isn't denying or confirming what whoever has stated what now and during this interview.

@ VettoRyouzou :
The only comparison I can think of in this case is the fact that both creators have created an excellent or at least very enjoyable first installment and that their franchise went downhill afterwards.
So in a way I believe you are right, although peter's presentations are a bit more fun to watch to bad he never really delivers
