I'm I the only one who still likes and respects Casey?

I do. What or how Bioware came to the conclusion to finish the game in the manner they did, it doesn't matter me. We have an issue with for the majority the final 97% of the finished product at the end of the day on the BSN. I say the guy did a pretty damn good job over the entire series if it's only the final 3% of the game that people don't like.

Grats to him.

Child, if I was trolling. You would be tearing your hair out.

But what you have presented here is so full of garbage, I find it astounding. You don't have faith in your arguement, but confidence in that the core narrative of Mass Effect 3 will stand on its own. You yourself declared it awesome and superb, yet, don't hold faith in what you say. Thus, you are actively stating you don't believe what you are saying. That is what is called being a hypocrite.

The fact of if the ending needs explination or not is subjective from person to person. But you call me a troll because I wish for something better for everyone?,  and call my fan status into question while putting yours above mine?. 

A sad little attack really. Go the distance, text bomb me too. I've seen better antics.

How do you know I'm not bald? Odds are I only wish I looked like Miranda.

I am here to astound! Yes, I did forget that on my list.

I'm an atheist pretty hardcore so I get squeamish using words like "faith." Sorry if that leads to some confusion. I believe in the truth and efficacy of my statements. As for channeling Sovreign, well.... god did it?

Seriously, I call you a troll for not accepting the legitimacy of what we're all here to discuss, and negating the possibility for the discussion.

No, I am not here to do BioWare any favors. I'm here to show my appreciation for them, to bestow praise, and love for their work.


Then why do you defend an ending that takes their work, puts it in a blender and sets it to purée?

A true fan doesn't blindly accept, but they do accept, which is more than can be said for you. My critiques are manifold.


That is where you're mistaken. A fan does not accept something that goes against the themes of the entire series.
A fan does not sit there, recieve an inadequate product and ask for more of the same.

A fan helps the developer realise where they went wrong.


Eh.... trying to 'define' what makes a fan is such a murky territory as it is.

That said I can't really see 'accepting' what's given as anything other than being a really generous compromise or just turning the other way in face of something that's clearly a mis-step.

3% that ruins the entire trilogy, and stomps all over the hard work of the other members of the writing team.
This has nothing to do with liking or respecting, but the fact that Hudson allowed this to happen.

It was a mistake. A bad one. I forgive mistakes and respect those who admit to them. *If* they admit to them.

Keep in mind they are still in PR recovery mode.
They are building the best shield they can right before their PAX panel.


I've mentioned the term "corporate suicide" various times in my posts in the last 3 weeks. Regardless of what they do or say, it's basically over.

You break the trust of your consumer base to this level, it's like trying to make nice with, and remarry your ex wife...

I'll guarantee one thing. Heads will roll in the coming months. Voluntarily or Voluntold...ily :P



Percy write that word down, I wish to use it more in conversation!

Wait a minute Angry. So if I don't like the endings but just press on and let them go or do not become vocal about it I am less a fan than someone who does? Or even if I liked the endings I am still less a fan than someone who doesn't and is vocalizing their opinion?  If so I understand your opinion but I may not agree with it.  If not then I apologize for looking at it the wrong way.

fan /Noun:An apparatus with rotating blades that creates a current of air for cooling or ventilation.
A person who has a strong interest in or admiration for a particular sport, art or entertainment form, or famous person.

I'm merely pointing out that being heavily critical does not make someone not a fan.
In fact, it just shows how invested we are, and how important this is to us.

I really like your sig.

But you are wrong. There are fundamental issues with ME3 that could potentially be based of buisness decisions to extend the validity of the product in the consumer market. That is ultimatly what I hope the RTM people will focus on at some point in time depending on how things are portrayed @ PAX.

because if they don't you, good sir or ma'am are infalibally correct. Not that I havea ctually read your posts in this thread. :whistle:

Our numbers will darken the sky of every world.


Then we will fight in the shade.

Seriously though, even if you had numbers on your  side it doesn't make the endings good. Example: Twilight.


You have to appreciate the irony of using good writing (Sovereign) to defend horrendously bad writing that directly neuters everything Sovereign said.


I was wondering when someone would say this... no, it really doesn't contradict it. 

If you really want to see my thoughts on it, why not visit this thread that also brings up Legion's rarely seen renegade comments from ME2.

Link

No one has responded to my comments there, yet. My wall of text seems to have stopped the thread dead lol. 

I fully admit that the Mass Effect 3 story and ending requires a person to think through it, but that's one of the reasons why I enjoy it. I would hope that Mass Effect appeals to people who like to actually think about these issues and not stop thinking because they reach some uncomfortable impasse.


Ive responded to this in a different post you brought this up in, and frankly what you present shows you exactly how bad they botched the end. You proven they removed Shepard from the main character role and thrust the catalyst into that role. In interactive storytelling that is just bad writing.

It's funny when pro-enders assume that because we dislike the ending(s) to a beloved franchise that we automatically disassociate ourselves from BioWare and have proclaimed them the anti-christ of gaming.

We respect and love BioWare for what they have developed and for who they are, otherwise we wouldn't be here complaining about a trilogy that deserves better.


Its really hard for anyone to come to this forums and believe what you just said. 


Maybe you're just looking at the radicals. I do admit, they are more fun to read. ;P


I just did a check on the story forums. There not a SINGLE positive tread about what people like about this game, or the fact that they apreciate Biowares work on ME3. All i see is how bioware must die or how EA is the anti christ or how evil Casey is for not giving them a better ending. Go to the story board yourself you wont find a single positive tread. This is what the ME fanbase is all about these days.


Then obviously your reading skills need work. Every single one of us that dislike the endings, have said that everything up until the final 15 minutes was 10/10.  Bioware spends 20-40 hrs setting you up for this awesome climax and then all you get is an unsatisfying experience.  Every faction has it's radicals, don't judge the rest of us, because of them.

1 more here :D I love the ME trilogy and im happy that i had the to experience such a great story. I have a deep respect for its creators (unlike the rest of "fanbase"). I am looking foward to more dlc content including more romance scenes :whistle: tho.

Anyway i believe ME series is one of the best stories i ever experienced and i had a great journey playing all 3 games (especially ME3)

Pretty sad. I think this is what they mean by "entitelement." 

I was a fan of Star Wars for a time. Then Lucas changed it. I am no longer a fan. Are you saying that I never was a fan in the first place? I didn't demand that he change it back. That's not my call. I don't own Star Wars. As a fan my powers involve bestowing praise or grievance, but not rejection. Once I reject things, I am no longer a fan of them. 

This is something you will have to accept. You are no longer a Mass Effect fan. It's probably going to take some time for you to realize it, but eventually it'll happen and you'll stop trolling fan forums.

The last time I got excited over anything ME3 related I got an ending that "rewarded" my efforts with the death of galactic society. So unless the folks in Bioware tell me they plan to do something about the endings I refuse to trust them ever again.


The last time for me was when they told me that my actions would determine the ending, of which there would be countless, and instead I got a Choose whether everyone dies in a red, blue or green explosion.
