Here's to Bethesda and CDProjecket. The last devs to put out quality RP games that still have story and not just eye candy.

The story in Fallout 3: Dad runs away. Find guy who knows a guy who knows where your dad went. Find said dad. Almost make clean water. Eeeeevil facists appear, stopping you from making clean water. Fight the eeeeeevil facists, so that water may be clean again. Succeed! ... but die , or Sabotage the clean water, because you are eeeeevil . OR ask your radioactive-proof buddy to do it, so that you can both succeed and not die ...except he says no . Why? Because 'It's your destiny' <_<

And let's not forget those memorable characters folks! Good old Star Paladin Cross. From her I learned so much, and gleaned so much from her mysterious past. Remember when she spoke about foul winds and tarrying? Ah, Shakespeare.

Yeah. I might have really enjoy Bethesda games, but it sure isn't for the story. Fallout NV on the other hand <3

Vaguely relevant point:

Expanded cutscenes could potentially feel really rushed and crap, but if this isn't coming until summer I'm slightly more encouraged, because that might suggest they're allowing time to record new voice-actor sessions as well.

Yeah, Tirra's right. I don't play Bethesda's games for the story, but for the sandbox-style gameplay. I do love their games, but that's not why I play them. FO:NV had an awesome storyline, but the others? Not so much.

I mean, Skyrim's ending to its main quest is pathetic, lol.

Still better than the end of Mass Effect 3.

Nope. At no point in Mass Effect 3 does a squadmate immune to red explosions make you go into a red explosion, because it's your destiny to go into a red explosion. Or if you buy the DLC, have Ron Pearlman call your character out for sending another to their death, even though they didn't die.

Let me repeat myself: Still better than the end of Mass Effect 3.

Story is meaningless in Bethesda games, story is most of what makes up a Bioware game, however.

Ok tweet confirmed. I don't know what to think about it:

Guys, she is just as spokesperson.  She has already said before that she doesn't have detailed knowledge of what goes on with the development team.  Like others have pointed out, it is imaginatively possible in the "destroy" ending for Shepard to reunite with his/her squad if he/she lives.

this is no dream is it? They are actualy going to destroy ME3 forever

[PSUHammer]

So, based on what was announced, I still see Indoc theory as a possibility. Would love to have a dev shoot that down as a possibility once and for all. Still too much fan assumptions either way.

[lmxar]

Come on guys, you have to at least wait until the DLC comes out before you can judge Bioware. I agree that the endings we have right now are terrible, but we stuck together and Bioware is actually trying to give us what we want. Just give them a chance to give us the FREE (who honestly believed it would be free...) DLC.

So twitter is giving me fits but this is the notice of reply to a tweet I recieved in my inbox from Jessica where I touched upon the contradictions between her statements and the FAQ



Looks like it's back into the hope holding pattern for me.

Yeah they've pulled a "maybe later" quite a few times.  I guess I'll just go do something else with my time until the DLC comes out.

If you write a story and less than half of your target audience gets it....

...then you fail at writing

Holding onto "artistic vision" is typical EA child-like PR statements

Unless of course the plan from the very begining was to bleed a customer dry for DLC money (The very first tennet of the rules of being with EA these days)

I don't think i'm going to bother anymore....

Gems like Baldur's gate, and ME1, ME2.... it's a thing of the past

Going to start pumping money into indie developers who care less about nickel and dime tactics and more about making a game that people can enjoy.

[EvilMind]

Bioware this idea is headed for an epic fail. Clarify this stupid ending is just retarded

Nah, Twitter is fine. If anything really important shows up there it will get reposted elsewhere anyway, so it's not like you have to sign up.

I agree in general, but to be fair, she is between flights to PAX right now. Twitter is infinitely more phone-friendly than the forums are.

This will either fix everything or be a total catastrophe, I'm leaning toward the latter.

Keeping my fingers crossed until Summer. I'll reserve judgement on the Extended Cut DLC until then.

If it's still bad, thanks for the memories, Bioware, and goodbye.

So they are going to clarify the ending, does that mean that the people that don't like the ending are just to stupid to understand what they were trying to do? Thanks EA, you've done a wonderful job of getting me excited for Halo 4.

thanks for your contribution to this thread.  great insights there.

After all that's gone the last two weeks that's the best I have left in me.

Really?  I'm super excited now.  This is great news!

Your going to have to explain how this is great news when the best everyone else I've talked to about can say is I'll give it a chance.

Still gotta play MP for best endings? I'm not doing it.

Plus this too ... really BioWare you are clueless at the moment and that stinks of weak management.

[Zarathustra666]

Let's wait for this DLC. If it sucks (as it apparently will) we have to fight with the only thing that really matters to them: our money -- stop buying EA games.

[Zalajinn]

I stopped reading when they mentioned "artistic"...... seriously, they still keeping themselves to it that this is ART? Sic transit gloria mundi....

WUT.  They said they're going to clarify in spots where they did shoddy writing, and as for DLC money, its free.  Don't bring false charges against the team... especially when they are doing this SPECIFICALLY FOR YOU.

[Sublyminal]

Some of these replies make me ashamed to be associated with the retake movement.

[CreepingGeth]

Surprised that so many people would be happy just getting Shepard reunited with the crew. Reuniting with them doesn't erase all of the nonsensical bull**** that happened at the end.

CLARIFICATION WILL GO AS FOLLOWS:

SYNTHESIS will ...
Starkid: kill you! ... Clarification: port you to Normandy!

DESTROY will ...
Starkid: destroy EDI and Geths! ... Clarification: only destroy Reapers!

CONTROL will ...
Starkid: kill Sheppard ... Clarification: really kill Sheppard as an ultimate sacrifice!

---
MASS RELAYS will ...
Starkid: be destroyed! ... Clarification: broken down, but easily repairable!

That'd be a little better, can we do it without starbrat? Or his broken logic that gives my brain hurt?

The blog Q&A is more about pride than artistic integrity.  It's about pride. Lots and lots of pride. Casey Hudson and Mac Walters are so ego-involved in the ending they created they simply will not acknowledge that they failed. They failed as writers, they failed as artists, they failed as stewards of the Mass Effect universe.

Remember, fans, we wield the ultimate weapon--money. They need us--we choose them. If you really want to be heard, loudly and clearly, then don't spend another thin dime on any EA or BioWare game. Don't spend a single dime on any project Casey Hudson and Mac Walters work on. Then you truly will have the final say.

QFT

Not so much on the last thing but the first bolded part I certainly agree with. I cannot in any way believe in the 'artistic integrity' line pulled and in hindsight, it feels like Ray had to get involved to make a damn compromise.

Please note that I'm not claiming this is fact, I have no idea what goes on in BioWare and I probably never will. It just feels like this to me.


Still... I'm hoping the whole team will be able to do the game justice and fix the plotholes... but I just feel sick about the whole situation now. Urgh.
