I'm over expecting Bioware to care enough to truly fix it. I'm not over being an upset customer, who tells his friends not to buy ME3. Just two nights ago, I had dinner with the group of friends who got me into the Mass Effect universe. They were trying to sell me back when they were playing the original game. I was iffy until Mass Effect 2 came out, then I jumped in. I was amazed by ME2's ending sequence, and even more amazed to discover that my mass effect friends hadn't bothered buying the sequel yet. Every time I saw them, I HOUNDED them until they finally bought ME2. Of course, they thanked me for being so insistent.

Of course, fast forward to two nights ago, and they were completely puzzled. They'd seen my facebook and twitter complaining about ME3, and of course they'd seen the news coverage, etc, as well. One friend asked me: "Is it really THAT bad?" He had kind of a condescending tone, like even though they're all gamers, maybe I was taking my game a little TOO seriously.

Then I told them that I wouldn't spoil the ending for them, but if I wanted to, I could tell them the EXACT ending they would see, independent of any choices they had made. And then I told them that the ending doesn't even really tell you who is dead or alive, or what happened to the Krogans or the Quarians or the Geth. And that characters magically teleport without explanation. And the whole Tali's face fiasco. All of that.

And they agreed with me...they won't be buying ME3 after all, despite it being an obvious purchase for them before I opened my mouth.

Am I over fighting on the boards? Yep. I'm just here out of morbid curiosity now, to see how bad it can get. But am I over getting ripped off? Nope.

Yeah, that is probably, why they give out more and more crap for people who preorder the game.

 I never wanted to say it.....but I figured this would happen eventually.  Even then outcry from Star Wars fans has largely peaked and while everyone acknowledges how bad they think The Phantom Menace is, everyone has come to realize it's just not going away.
In the end....unless something happens at PAX, I think we're just plain stuck in the same boat they are.  Ultimately, it falls to the fans to try and pick up the pieces and keep going. A big reason why I've been able to get back into the game is because of things like the Marauder Shields comic which i've been able to mentally copy and paste over the current endings.

I really wish we had an SDK for the game because it would open up a lot of options for the fans to try and fix this disaster.  The Star Wars prequels have Fanedits, and they've given fans a lot of tools to reshape the movies into something bareable.   It's a travesty that we don't have the ability to mod.

The ending still sucks, so I still want it changed, but my expectations are very low.

I've seen videos of people using the character models from the game to make joke animations. If Bioware ends up dropping the ball, I'm sure, at some point, sopmeone will complete the game for them.

Over it in the sense that I feel naive for having had so much trust, and now I'm going to look for other games that will gather up my interest and time. I still feel a vague sadness when I think of my favorite gaming franchise ever. But it seems they've clearly given up on it, so why shouldn't I?

I wont give in like that because i demand more integrity from game developers. I dont simply demand a better ending. Ultimately, ill make my point by not buying games from certain companies. Thats all.

Ive been a hardcore gamer since 1998 and never before has a game disappointed me and then told me to buy DLC.

I'm over it in so far as I haven't picked up any ME game since I saw the ending and won't until it is fixed. That would be the "Paris Hilton over it" I guess.

No. My Nerd Rage will forever burn strong about this, just like it does for the Star Wars prequels and the last two seasons of The X-Files.

Don't even get me started on the prequels and X-Files xD Why did you have to go there??

What are you talking about?

I'm still not over the idiocy of putting platforming jumping puzzles in an isomeric RPG-Ultima VIII.

Long memories

I've actually been flirting with that idea for some time now.
The problem is, while a ton of the art is already there, it's just one step.  All the animation systems for the characters are effectively destroyed and rendered unworkable for new content upon reimporting.  You can load canned animations....but you'd probably need to rerig every character to achieve any sort of quality animation for new content.
I doubt one guy could do it.  You'd need a small but pretty dedicated team to have any hope of achieving something like this.....and I'm only talking a rendered video.  Probably no chance of getting anything other than Sheploo either.

Because it's entirely comprabable to what the ME3 ending is, and they're both sci-fi. :P

And SEE. People STILL aren't over how The X-files ended!

I've been over it for a while now, however that doesn't mean I'm not eagerly awaiting some kind of DLC.

I've also replayed the game one time. Basically the exact same playthrough, except it was NG+.

I agree about the nerd rage part. You accurately portrayed the feelings of many fans right there. XD

All though my nerd rage will live on for all eternity (or at least until I get over it, or if the DLC we're hoping for comes out), I can deal with (more like “accept”) if no DLC comes out.

I'm disappointed, but I've got too much else going on in my life to lose sleep over it. If I don't hear any promising news from Pax, I'll probably fiddle around with multiplayer for another week and walk away from Mass Effect (and BioWare).

For me I'm indoctrinated by the indoctrination theory. =)

Helps me think the end wasn't so bad :P

I'm over it. But being over it means I most likely won't be buying anything else from BioWare/EA. This hurts them more than it does us. Already EA's stocks are dropping because of this debacle and it may very well affect BioWare in a big way. I personally think their days are numbered as this has opened a huge can of worms about customer rights, satisfaction, and our ability to hurt them with our money. I don't think BioWare will ever be the same again.

I was hoping that the new announcement about the DLC would get me excited to play the game again or at least rile up some old feelings about the series.

But nope. Still backsliding into apathy about the whole series.

Damn shame, really.
