wow another IT hater

well if the ending is only half on the disc, then its quite (more than likely) that whole ending has already been done and is only being held back so that enough people will get to the end of the game without the almighty internet spoiling it for them.

Oh and before anyone starts ranting/whineing that holding back part of the end and possiblely charging for it is wrong and terrible. May i remind you that this is how the world of games works now and b****ing about it wont change anything, Especially since many of those moaning about it will still buy the dlc anyway.

because they are hypocrites. (I am not a hypocrite and will happily pay for more content to be added to the masterpiece that is mass effect 3....also Indoc theory is brilliant.)


It may be the state of games as of now.  I agree; I am okay with this and have purchased DLC.  However, if it gets to the point where they start charging us for bullets to reload our guns then I will rage.  It is ok to accept change but remember not to be too complacent about these type of things otherwise they will walk all over us.

If you actually read past the opinionated first paragraph, she doesn't say anything of the sort about her feelings about the ending. She makes a noncommital statement. Her quote:



Well I wasn't there, but that's the feeling the writer was getting.

Meer was told to read these lines - I am the Citadel, the Reapers are mine, I controll them...After that he attacked the writers :) I wish :)))

From the article:

"Hale revealed that she was disappointed by the ending, impressed by the reactions from fans, and hopeful-- though not necessarily optimistic--that Bioware and EA will ever release a new ending."


If you actually read past the opinionated first paragraph, she doesn't say anything of the sort about her feelings about the ending. She makes a noncommital statement. Her quote:

Article says...

"I have mixed feelings," she told Edge. "I really respect the team and what they did and how hard they worked. And endings are hard! They're cutting new ground; the players are so involved in this game that to come up with an ending to something everyone's got their hand in is a huge challenge. So maybe it's going to take a little work to get everything sorted in a way that's going to make everybody happy." 


There's no real opinion brought up there.

Yeah, reading the article again I think you're right. I think the Edge reporter put words into her mouth. A lot of what they say, ie with her being unhappy with the ending, just isn't supported by an actual quote.


Edit : The bolded bits from the edge magazine are what I believe not supported by a quote...
Hale revealied that she was disappointed by the ending, impressed by the reactions from fans, and hopeful-- though not necessarily optimistic--that Bioware and EA will ever release a new ending.

And the actual part where she mentioned the word "denial." :D

"However, she did admit that she likes to imagine that the "Mass Effect" adventure isn't over yet, saying "I prefer to live in denial about it because it makes me too sad."

But it's very very obvious the writer is incredibly biased, just from that first paragraph.

If like she said she hasnt been contacted about VAing.. i am assuming nothing with the Starchild is being changed either, seeing as she did one voice for that as well :S

Actually you know, I'd really like to know her thoughts (and Meer's for that matter) on having to voice Starbaby.
I can't imagine that was pleasant. I know if it were me I'd have to find mouthwash as quickly as possible after being forced to do that.



Nah they won't do any direct criticism; they're not going to bite the hand that feeds them, which is perfectly understandable.

Even if they were to never work with Bioware again, it wouldn't look good to any future employers if either ripped their previous one apart.

Granted, he may be biased. I don't know.

True, but I still have to wonder if they were handed these lines and asked "Did you give me somebody's Mass Effect fanfic by mistake?"

Well, if the consumer reaction is anything to go by, I would be very surprised if either didn't have a raised eyebrow upon seeing the script.

Well, I love this woman. Actually, I would be surprised if she would've liked it, as she put so much work into this character... she more or less "became" Shepard. ^_^

I don't think they have time to even consider any of that. I remember there was an interview where she stated she didn't always known the context of the line she was saying, only to realize afterwards she should have said it differently.

 Something that slightly bothers me about this article. She at no point talks about the breathing scene. If she truly did not want to see it as an end you would have thought she would have pointed that out and tried to give herself or the fans hope from that. Then the article flat out tries to ignore the breathing scene.


In the meantime, Jennifer Hale will go on pretending that "Mass Effect 3" is not over, despite the fact that no matter how you play the game Shepard always dies in the end.


Its possible both author and her dont know about it but I don't know...I just get a 'do not trust' vibe from this one.

If it is indeed the way things work in the gaming industry now - that releasing an incomplete game is perfectly acceptable - then it's because of people like YOU who thinks the world of game developers and feel that they can do no wrong and are above reproach.

YOU made this world a worse place to live in.  Thanks!

She didn't play the game. How would she know about the breathing scene? It's not like they actually needed her voice acting for that scene.

Hale isn't disappointed by the ending. She's disappointed that it is ending. Don't use misleading titles and quotes out of context.
