Here we go again. This is so misleading. The news sites will trumpet the release of the ME3 EXTENDED CUT. Hey, they're fixing the bad ending! Some people that were probably on the fence will see the news and go buy the game.

However, they aren't fixing anything. There is no talk about the length and since it's free you can expect it will be short. They are only adding "additional cinematic sequences and epilogue scenes" which means the god-child and colors will be explained in more detail and there will be blurbs around what happened to various characters and groups.

They are putting lipstick on the pig.





STOP ---- STOP ---- STOP ---- STOP ---- STOP ---- STOP ---- STOP ---- STOP ---- STOP ---- STOP

"[...]for no extra charge."

..Interesting choice of words. Still doubt they'll keep it free.

I hope this doesn't mean we still get Joker&friends hauling ass leaving ComShepard to die alone in the field of battle...

This isn't a fix. They are simply trying to slap paint on the rusted out hulk of a game they wrecked. The ending CANNOT be fixed by expanding on it! It CANNOT. No matter what makeup you plaster on that f*cker you cannot make the illogical become logical, the irrational become rational, the retarded become not retarded. Only with religion can more handwaving over gaping ridiculous HOLES in the plot of the belief system in any way be called a "fix" or "improvement".

1+1 = 2 no matter how badly you want it to equal 3. It doesn't.

Unless those "answers" are proof that the indoctrination theory is real, I do not see how any explanation Bioware can come up with will allow me to enjoy -

SPOILERS!!!

the star-child and the jungle crash-landing scenes. It's impossible.

Odd that such an item would break from a source like that, and if true, it really doesn't seem like Bioware got the message, but a BH subsidiary also isn't usually the type to gossip or operate on rumors.

EDIT: Yeah, looking over the announcements, I don't think this is going to do what EA/Bioware is hoping it will do. I'll hold onto as much judgement as I can, but it really doesn't look like this is going to resolve the core issues people have with the ending, rather just slap an epilogue onto it and leave most of the plotholes, narrative paradigm violations, ExMachina issues, and reader-writer contract breaches intact.

No, because, if the article is correct, it doesn't really sound like it's addressing what people are having an issue with, like putting a band-aid on a chainsaw wound.

So don't download it, go away and play another game.  They aren't going to rewrite the whole of ME3 for you, and you won't settle for less so just trade in the game for something you enjoy and move on with your life.  That goes for all of the retake haters.
