Thank you so much for doing this! It came out better than I could have imagined! My only regret is that I wish i could have written a better letter, or included some fan art,

You should have wrote in small letters "BioWare, please don't sue us! D:" on the disclaimer page, that would make it so full of win.

We're still arranging everything for the digital copy, so soon everyone will be able to read the letters and see all the fan art ^_^.

There's also a mag, GameRant that also wants a copy and to do an article. There's also a blogger that wants to do a write up about it.

Looks like (y)our little campaign is running smoothly, huh?

I wonder if any big game magazines realizes what you're doing. Tried to place a hint on www.lookie.de (a German games mag, online only) but for now, there's no response.

Thanks Visii and everyone who helped with it. Hope that Devs will realize how important ME2 companions were for a lot of us. And how we feel becouse they forgot that those characters were not only teammates but a friends and LIs too.Im also glad I could add a small thing to it. Thanks again.

So did I. Can only wonder how Nick and Ayrss kept in their seats.

I would have been standing on a chair, like, "That's RIGHT! That BOOK is a work of art! Now READ IT! It's pretty and it's also constructive! Bring back Thane, PLEAAAAAASE, he didn't deserve that, none of the ME2 LI's did, how could you do this to us, what do want from us so you'll fix it-"

*is dragged kicking and screaming from the room*.


Image IPB I'd pretty much be like that too, if I were there! I was hyper and on edge and squeeing sitting by my pc an ocean away as it were!!*bounces still*

I'd love to see that digital copy too, read all the letters, see all the awesome art!!Image IPB

And yup, looking forward to the devs' response to it!!!I do not have Twitter, but thinking I might brave it in order to tweet-tweet-tweet them for The Book!Image IPB

As for people knowing my real name, I don't care. I'm proud to be a fan and proud to know my letter was put into that book. If someone wants to try and stalk me, they can. However, be aware that I own a cabinet full of guns. The circumstances may become perforated.

Hey guys, I had an idea for the Extended Cut today:

social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/355/index/11139069/1

That would benefit the ME2 characters that obviously took the back seat in ME3 and also the ME3 characters because I'm sure we all want to save them from Jurassic Planet.

Aftermath Update:

Hello lovely people of the BSN,

Nick and I want to start off with thanking you! The support, the feedback, and the contributions have been overwhelmingly wonderful. It’s been a blast reading through the thread. Have you noticed how amazing it is when the BSN comes together under one cause? This truly is an incredible community. That being said, keep up the awesome work, guys. It isn’t over yet. Take to Twitter and Facebook! Charge! When we spoke to the BSN representatives (Patrick Weekes, Mike Gamble, John Dombrow ), they told us plainly that what DLC they produce depends upon community feedback. Your voices matter, but they’re loudest when united and used in cooperation. You see how well we did here? We worked together. That’s what made it happen.

We also want to flesh out some of the blurbs Visii has relayed. Isn’t she amazing (HUGE thank you for all of her support, organization, and for putting up with our tired, cranky, and hungry selves)!? Let’s start out with the Staples guy, okay? HUGE shout out to Chris of the random Boston Staples we found, who, instead of taking 2 hours, finished our pictures in, like, 20 minutes. This was just a few hours before we took off for the panel! Potential heart attack there.

We got to PAX two hours before the panel, good thing too, as the parking lot was full and the line for the panel was massive (We had to forgo going to the Dragon Age panel just before ={ See how much we love you?) This is where we made friends with random attendees that where interested in our black book with the unique N7 patch (thank you Gamergal). Word gets around fast when people are 6 inches apart, which is how we got the attention of a couple of journalists from GameRant (Thanks Matthew Kozachek for the introduction!). Man, those guys knew their stuff. You know how a lot of journalists bash us? Well these guys have actually played the series and care as much as we do. Make sure to check them out. Jason Weissman, the assistant editor, was quick to tell us he was on our side and he wants to do a write up of our labor of love. Cool, huh?

Upon getting into the theatre, it was still unclear whether or not they would be entertaining questions, so we opted to give the book to Chris Priestly right then. I know he doesn’t look ecstatic in the pictures we provided. We’re sorry. He was actually super nice, all smiles, and even posed with thumbs up, but in all the rush we forgot our actual camera, and our phone decided it wanted to portray Chris as evil. (Enter flaming smiley face here =p )

We were pleased to see that as soon as we got back to our seats, the whole team was flipping through the pages with an utterly impressed look on their faces. Win! They even mentioned our book and how gorgeous it was, and it got a huge amount of applause from the attendees (which was pleasantly surprising.)

Fast forward through the panel and some really odd questions… Testing utilities and facial animations, really? Come on. And we made our way down to room 105 the ‘Bioware Headquarters’ for what we thought was just going to be a meet and greet. Turns out there was an absurdly long line for that one too. But, as you’ve probably read, Chris ushered us in like VIPs. (We felt so special!) He then introduced us to the writers, Patrick Weekes and John Dombrow, and the DLC manager, Mike Gamble.

The answers we did glean from this patient group of individuals were limited, as security soon cleared the room for the signing event. These answers included future DLC being extremely dependent on community feedback, they too want more time with their own favorite LIs, and some of the shortcomings of the game are due to limited time and resources in combination with the massive scope of the game. I’m sorry, but we didn’t have much time to ask the other questions we had fully intended on asking for specific LIs. But we did try to impress upon them the fan support for DLC LI content.

The Bioware team was very polite, very kind, and seemed to care immensely for the game and characters they created. They also seem to be taking the criticism in stride and with good humor. This was a nice contrast from some of the harsh treatment of fans we’ve witnessed in the past. But again, they said that their decisions are largely based off of fan feedback. So if you want change or more content, speak loudly and speak together!

Thank you guys so much for all that you’ve done to help get this book completed as well as getting it the attention it needs to make an impact. Back at the hotel room, it’s a little emptier without our baby. But we believe that it is in capable hands and will be read by people who care.

Make yourselves heard!
Aryss & Nick

Thank you so much. I can't tell you that enough. You've earned praise, a good rest and my love/respect as well. This is a great accomplishment and as I said before, was proud to contribute.
