Very good post!

Hold the line guys, stay together, make a stand ... and first of all: be PROUD! You can move something!
Shepard and all of his friends are watching you and saving your back!

 I hope Gamble and the rest of the panelists will be strong enough not to take **** from you guys. That's my one hope. Maybe also a flat dismissal of indoc with, "didn't you listen to the epilogue?" but I doubt that will prevent anyone from continuing to believe it.

There is no possibility of a happy ending per se. Yes, I believe Shepard
should survive in one scenario and retire with his love interest, but I
also believe it is important for Shepard to reflect on what he has
lost. This is a bittersweet ending, not a Disney one.

I think a majority of us would like to see a "Reaper's Win" scenario with a low enough EMS, simply for posterity.

I personally believe that the alerations should go between these two scenarios with varying degrees of depression.


This exactly. And thanks for the thread, OP, you are totally right!!
Hold the line.

Thanks for playing.

Ask why some of the pre-release lies were made. That's all I ask.

I don't get this. If you like the ending, you wouldn't have to buy a DLC that changes it. And if BW really already had planned something (like maybe Indoc or any post-ending DLC) before releasing the game, would you boycott it as well? I just don't get it what the problem should be.

Anyway..............................

Don't submit to pressure. We're too far entrenched to give up now.

I don't think there's anything wrong with just a lil' bit of righteous rage. Be angry but not to the point of slobbering. Let your tongue be a sword of truth, a lightsaber if you will, that cuts through the BS and gives them no where to hide.

This.

As I've stated before there is no one more dangerous than a person you cannot faze with PR and doublespeak.

If people are prepared Bioware won't have a choice but to address this. Remember, you have every right to ask!

Again please don't put your hopes in PAX they are not going to use that public forum to give in,they are going to use it to go on the attack. When they give in they will be as quite about it as they can be because while they want us back they don't want to have to stand up in front of the world and admit they lied and then stalled on making it right. Please no matter what happens at PAX hold the line until we get new endings.

I hope they will realize that unless they offer some alternatives, their new DLC won't sell very good. People who are satisfied won't buy it - people who want new endings won't buy it - leaves only the smaller group of people who are satisfied with the clarification of the ending.

We don't know that. Not addressing the endings would be suicide. Major news outlets have reported on this. All eyes are on Bioware. Remember, the entire Mass Effect Universe may hinge on this one event.

Yeah but they have shown with their statements that they think we are a small group of very stupid people,we have not been at this long enough to have enough of an effect on them for them to see it as otherwise and also they have said all the they doing is extending the endings,I really don't see them changing their minds in the next week. I really think this is going to take longer and so far pretty much everything they have said has been some sort of attack on us and the gaming press is still on their side. Again i will be happy if I am wrong but my gut is telling me that they will use PAX as an attempt to shut us down not give into us. I really just don't see them making a 180 degree turn in the next week. Sorry that's just what my gut is telling me and I want people to be prepared so they don't think it's over and just give up and pay for extended endings because they think that is all that will happen. I think the two weeks after PAX are going to be what decides of Retake Mass Effect works or not. I am pretty sure all they will say(besides a few remarks about how stupid we are and what great artists they are)is that the extended endings and some MP DLC will be released in the next week and then they are going to wait a week or two to see if we fall apart. If we do they will not bother with new endings but if those things don't boost sales then they will know that they have to release new endings. Sorry that's just what I think is going to happen.
