Compared to CoD, Gears of War, etc, like most non forum going, satisfied with the ending, ME players, ME3 has a great story and ending I'm sure.  Especially if you started the series at the last game. 

Do you honestly think that GoW had a worse ending than ME? Because I hope not.

We are the hardcore fans. Nuff said.

I've talked to other gamers and they didn't like how it ended. They just think it's useless to ask for a better ending.

And I can't blame them, history guarantees that game developers will not listen to their hardcore fanbase...like ever. A few examples are SWG and MW2 for PC.

LOL

Nice troll, dude.

[cg8900]

obviously every person that disliked the ending can't join the facebook...many didn't even know about the retake project....many, just buried ME3 and forgot about it......many just played multiplayer instead......doens't mean that there were ONLY 66000 people who disliked the end just because it says so on facebook!!! the majority doesn't complain, they just move on.......

I didn't make this reply, but I thought I would quote it here just because he was spot on.

SureYouDo:


Yes, thank god the world has some random blogger guy to point out how pathetic the effor of 60k people is, who are trying to fix the horrible train wreck of a ending. Surely, no one has made point on this several times in the past month, with several times more qualification in customer interaction and statistics and stated and came to very different conclusions. Oh, and nice touch taking on that upstanding, condescending tone there, just to show everyone just how "above" all this **** you are. The "journalist" of the world have taken the very same tone, but lately they have realized, **** maybe we should have done SOME research, and posting two blatantly oversimplified number and presenting it as a dogma isnt the best idea.

Srsly tho, you know, that you have to go through butt-****ingly long process to get registered on bsn? its amazing 60k got off their asses, registered, found the poll and voted. But, lets dismiss that **** right away and climb on our moral high horse. Nothing better than showing plebs how beneath us they are. Oh and logical conclusions, supported by unbiased facts? that **** is overrated anyway.

I love stupid 'evidence' based on sales numbers.

Sales numbers can't be taken as a number for support or against. You can only take the numbers you have to work with.

Its why political polls are accurate, tv ratings are accurate, sales projections are accurate, focus groups are accurate.

Most of the time a good cross section is all thats needed.

ANOTHER EVEN BETTER CHART! Just added.

Edit: I changed the layout of the chart. Please disregard any comments about the pie chart being inaccruate. Although I contest that it was, this one is more accurate.

I agree

Flawed logic is flawed.
Basing fan displeasure on a group that many people probably don't know about (especially outside BSN) is a very simple thing to do.
For whatever reasons they may be (they don't know about RME, don't feel like joining another group, etc) that people didn't join, I doubt the highest among them is that they did in fact enjoy the ending.
It's simple statistics (which your defence definitely is not; had it been guaranteed that every single one of those people knew about RME and they didn't have anything discouraging them from joining internet groups then I'd agree with you).
Look at the percentage of people among the BSN that dislike the ending. It is quite high (notice this is true regardless of the number of people on BSN that are also in the RME group).
There is no disputing that the number of people on BSN that are dissatisfied with the ending is higher than the number of BSN members in RME.
Ergo, your logic (if any to begin with) is flawed.

This again?  Are we feeding on ourselves now?

No chart there, btw.  Either there once was one and it is now indeed a hacked site or this was a joke all along.

Now, if the alleged chart was based on sales numbers, I have to agree with the replies that state that sales are not an indicator of enjoyment of the product.  To take that view is short sighted.  Sales do indicate the popularity of the last product by the same company.

I dont think anyone can tell who is in the majority/minority.

Whats clear though is that the ending caused the biggest outcry in gaming I can remember.

That is correct. Statistics have not yet found solid proof for either in a medium such as the Internet. Anyone making such claims, even with charts or hacked web pages, has already pre-filtered many possibilities. That's just poor research.

Well, in terms that the chart is cool, I might agree as well.
Even if there is one color missing......lfg(reen).

Due to your conclusion about minorites and majorities, there migth be some considerations missing.
The most important one would be the fact that the percentage of discontent customers that enunciate about their discontet is low.
Only 4% - 9% of displeased customers (depending on which study you are referring to) express themselves directly to a company or in media. The rest of the disontent customers just articulate themselves when they talk with friends, family, neighbours etc.

And as far as I know there are currently no reliable data referring to expressed discontent via froums/guestbooks/facebook etc.

As a conclusion I would like to remark that ot is very brave to claim that those people who dislike the game were a minority.
I don't want to speculate but the interest of the media referring to ME3's ending would not be that big if the journalists had an idea that the topic would have the reader's interest. They have family and friends as well including gamers.
BW already announced an extended cut due to the reactions of the gamers and the media.

But in contrast to the OP I don't want to speculate and I keep by the facts (as I mentioned above).

Even if I have experience in customer's reaction, dealing with customers, sale etc. I would not dare to make any assumptioms about who has the minority or majority if we ask about the overall content with the ending of ME3.
There simply is not enough reliable data.

Cheers
