Yeah right like EA is going to miss an aportunity to make tons of money there greedy i disagree with this and hopefully it isnt true i was rly hoping for a new ending

Hudson has said there is no new ending. They are clarifying and explaining the ending to those that didn't understand it.

Noone said that. All these official responses didn't have any clear answers. They only said they are thinking how to fix it. That's all.

Hudson says alot of things. PR speak is itself defined by the ability to mince words. When people asked whether ME3 would have multiplayer, the response was "We are focused on crafting the best single-player experience possible". I'm more inclined to wait for a real response indicating what is in this dlc and if there is a price attached.

Actually, they have. They aren't fixing it, there is nothing to fix.

So much for BW 'listening' to players. Nice lie there BW. Very nice.  

Hoping this isn't true though, but it's likely.

Again, people please, just stop taking such newspaper "articles" seriously.

All statements made have been deliberately vague. Some downright evasive. Anybody sensible is waiting to see what Bioware actually announce before getting their oanties in a twist.

If Bioware do announce something crap then feel free to rage all you want.

[Delaney]

Well what can I say that hasn't already been said ... I am curious how they want to "clarify" all the plotholes: teleporting squadmates, dead squadmates being alive again, Joker leaving the battle ... For more information, BW, just read the million threads here, it's all in front of you, I am only not sure if you can see it or even want to realize it ... And another thing: BW, you just want to move on, after you lied to your fanbase (16 DIFFERENT endingS which are reflecting our decisions throughout the 3 games ... WHERE ARE THEY?)??? Really? So ... Don't expect more money with DLCs ... or any fan support. Because if you ignore your fans who are ALSO your CUSTOMERS (I am sure you know it already because you aren't idiots, you can't be after DAO, Baldurs Gate, ME1, ME2 ...) YOU are the only one who will lose in the long term.

But ... Okay. Waiting/Hoping for clear PAX announcement though.

You should read official responses more carefully. They didn't say that.

Many people in the thread are already doing that. I doubt pleas in bold will change the minds of those who do take the article seriously.

There's many failings in the ending that are technical faults, the same as a bug or an exploit. There's plenty to fix. Could they, or should they, is a matter of opinion. Narrative cohesion and such aren't opinions, where as the whole "Godchild is stupid" thing is.

looks like bioware didn't want all those money anyway

i will laugh at them when they go broke and have to close after they fail hard with their next big project, cause boy you won't get those insane amount of preorders from mass effect 3.

I'm actually fine with this. If they can provide valid explanations as t why your crew vanished, why the Catalyst takes the form of a human child, why the Reapers do what they do and why synthetics are the natural enemy of organics despite us proving that wrong during the game, then I'll be relatively fine with the endings. I'm in the minority that actually kind of likes the current endings. They could have been much, much better, they're full of plotholes, they lack explanation, the Reapers' motivation is somewhat disappointing and nonsensical, and previous choices have no real impact, but I personally quite like the idea of using the Relays against the Reapers.

Just as long as they take out the Normandy crash.

The potential for bodily harm just went up exponentially

[Stinkface27]

They don't have any real (read: monetary) reason to make a DLC that changes or improves the ending. They made their money from you from buying the game, whether you liked it or not has nothing to do with it.

So depressing.

...in your studied opinion, of course, as someone who, unlike some, is intelligent enough to actually understand the ending.

Give it a rest. That ending in a manuscript would have triggered a rejection by every literary agent and publisher in the world. If you like it, then like it. But don't imply that those who have a problem with it are just too dull to understand it. Nonsense can't be understood.

[DamonD7]

This guy may simply be reading from the old PR line on this, it certainly reads like pure PR, plus saying something like "the ending was the best they could find" makes it hard for me to take him seriously anyway I think it's legit quotes, but he may not be quite in the current loop.

Waiting for PAX, simple as that. That's the real definitive article.

Indoctrination Theory requires no altering of ending

It requires clarification for those who don't know the story, and haven't played Mass Effect

[EllOneillE]

If that's accurate I'm just going to focus on all the savings now that I won't buy any more Bioware games or DLC.

Lets see how well the tune sounds when Dragon Age 3 comes around and game catches the fallout of this - because their brand loyalty is shot  to all holy hell.   

Dragon Dogma and The Witcher 2 are looking mighty good right now.

Bye bye bioware

Their fanbase is just fine, they don't have to worry about anything. The amount of people who "will never buy BW again" are a very small number out of the big fanbase.

[Kitedtk]

I don't think Inodoctrination theory is sufficient... it would still require maybe 30 minutes of events happening after the current events of the ending. Yet i do think indoctrination theory is fan made. Not the intention of ea/Bioware. Simply. The fans care more about the game then it's developers do. This is not a good sign for the game.

Yes and no. The problem is that customer satisfaction is what encourages dlc sales and the typical market for dlc, as I"m aware, is substantially smaller than that of the main game. Which means if we consider the number of people who have bothered to come here and voice their opinion, vote in the poll (60k against the ending, I believe), that means that there is a substantial amount of customer dissatisfaction amongst those who would normally be most likely to purchase dlc.

It's even more funny when we consider Bioware's claim that fan demand would itself shape what kind of dlc is made. Here, we have one of the largest initiatives taken to change the ending of a game, composed of a substantial number of fans, yet based on that article (which might be untrue), they seem to be going against their earlier policy.
