ok, valid point I should have specified more clearly.
How the hell has he hide behind those that have deamend you exactly?

Case in point, Dr. Muzyka's "letter" to the fans where he essentially
said "I get some diehards have a problem with how we ended the series,
but look how many shiny reviews we have!" The press and developers are
sticking together on this one because they have mutually beneficial
prospects. Notice how it is mainly the business media that is
criticizing Bioware and the ending. Establishments like Forbes, CNN, BBC
have much less to loose in speaking out against developers than say,
Kotaku would have.

Forums, she is being the little **** tonite isn't she???????
I disagree though. The issue of what Muzy say's in a post to the BSN or fans of ME should be taken with more validation then anything anyone else has to say. He is at the end of the day a very important person within Bioware. The fact that he responded means others don't have to on the issue. Forbes however having less to lose also has the most to gain from supporting it. The same with CNN and the BBC. All have the opertunity to draw attention to there respective outlets on a subject that is and has been generating a lot of attention for Bioware and EA.
If Muzy say's it's there product like it or not because of Artistic Integrity I really don't think he is just making some vapid response to shut people up or try and get people to calm down.

Haha yes she is.
My point is, how can you have integrity without honesty. I don't see how any rational person can argue that what we promised is what we got. There's overhyping a game and blatantly lying, which is why some retailers like Amazon are giving full refunds and have suspended sale of the product. The fact that they cannot be honest about their own art renders their integrity moot.

I can see the post formating of the quote pyramid, and yet it does not show.

Thats a difficult arguement though. Every game does that and I suppose the best example of a game that did it and still had a modicum amount of sales was Aion, as it suits both our points, and it offered everything that is advertised and hyped. the only difference was what the personal view of those expectations on how they had been met. People post that they are fine with the game and it's just the ending, and the lack of showing of your choices in ME3 that come from ME2 or that are made in ME3. And I don't think thats a responsibility that Bioware or EA or any dev studio or publisher in the game industry should have to control. If fans or would be fans want to over exagerate an expectation to an unachievable degree then that's something that the player should have to deal with and not Bioware in this case.
An example is the endings. People are all mad at how you only have three choices to make and use that as an example emperically. And it's no tthe case. From those three endings based on your choices in the game and your final EMS you have 6 possibilities that can occur from them. You also see peple saying that the ending cinimatics are all the same. ME2 had the same thing. The only difference was how many loyalte missions you did for your squad. But yet in ME3 because people wanted so much more then what Bioware was and is able to give them theres a disconnect. And it's not a disconnect Bioware should have to reconnect.
Retour en haut
Is boring.
