People may be unreasonable to expect a re-written ending, but if anyone thinks this will fix the actual issues with the ending, unless all you wanted was clarity, is kidding themselves.

You don’t even know how Bioware are going to expand upon these endings. When we complained about the current ME3 endings, a lot of diehard fans called us a bunch of crybabies because we didn’t get the ending we wanted. Yet we still as we liked to call it, held the line. Now I believe it is time to sit back and see what Bioware have planned for this extended ending, because we’re lucky to get this. They could have easily just said “no, screw you, that’s our ending, live with it”. Sure, they might have lost a lot of fans but they’d still have enough to keep business afloat.
You never know, it could be expanded into like an epilogue similar to what Dragon Age: Origins did. Now DA:O essentially only had one ending (save for you living or dying, or someone else killing the Archdemon, but the big picture was that it was just one ending - the Archdemon died and the Blight ended), yet it had a massive epilogue that detailed the events of what happened after the game thanks to your character. ME3’s extended ending could have something like that, and yet while it is just basically text on a screen, I still played through DA:O loads of times just to get a different epilogue each time.
So can we just be calm for a few weeks and see what this expanded ending offers before jumping to conclusions? We wanted closure, now we're getting it. If you really honestly expected them to do something like the indoctrination theory, then let this be a lesson to you. Don't put faith in theories, no matter how convincing they may be.
. Agreed people need to accept this is what we are getting or move on. They spoke their peace and us ours. They are giving us free DLC that will hopefully explain most of the numerous questions we have, nobody should expect more.

A little?
I'm seeing goalposts moved all over the place. This all started by people rightly saying "The endings don't make sense. We want more closure" to now saying "We want completely new endings! Erase the old ones!"
People are now going around saying exactly what this "Extended Cut" is gonna be. It's not even COMPLETED yet and people are talking trash about it. "It's gonna be 5 minutes long! Text epilogue! No voices! Won't explain anything!" It's not even DONE yet you effing tards.
People are GBCWing all over the place. It'll be fun to see whether these people leave forever as they say they are "I'm never gonna buy another BioWare product again for as long as I live!". Somehow I doubt it.
The ****** around here is unreal.

I'm calm, but I still have my right so say that explaining garbage doesn't make it smell less.

I agree with someone who posted in this thread earlier that no matter WHAT happened, the fanbase would be fractured. That was inevitable, in that while everyone agreed that SOMETHING must be done about the ending, everyone did not agree on what that solution should be.
And yes, much of the complaints about the ending CAN be addressed in extended dialogue and cutscenes and whatnot. No, the silly StarChild concept won't be retconned out, but a lot of the other complaints can be fixed. Yesterday, a fan released this:
shannon.users.sonic.net/masseffect/
While it is 100% fan created, I find it interesting how well BSN user Siduri managed to plaster over the basic "red, green, blue" choices and utilize the existing (ripped off from Deus Ex) ending canon to create closure that's frankly, very very good.
If that's the effort from just one dedicated fan, lets give the writing team - the ones that gave us all the other amazing writing in this game - a chance to see what they come up with.
Ok, no, not you, Walters and Hudson. You two go sit in a corner. You're grounded for this one.

I don't think I am being unreasonable by refusing to buy something that I dislike?
I am almost inevitably going to dislike the new content, since essentially what we get will be a long, lingering stare at the galaxy being ****ed over, rather than a quick glimpse.
My plan is still what it always was, if the endings aren't addressed, then I abandon the Mass Effect franchise, and possibly Bioware in general as a customer. Simply because, apparently, they no longer want to make things that appeal to me.
I fail to see how not buying things that don't appeal to me is unreasonable.

But you can't "refuse to buy it." It's free!
