 Dear Bioware, you know there is nobody on this earth who believes that, right?  You developed a game with intense interaction between the characters, and previously had lots of cut scenes about what happened to everyone - an actual denouement so to speak, but now you're "Shocked! Shocked!" that people would have wanted a comprehensive ending to the third game?

All your pre-release stuff indicated more of a capstone ending to the series, and we don't get anything about any of the races we've worked, nor much of anything about our ship mates.

And you didn't know?


Again, nobody buys that.  Your statement at PAX today makes it sound far more likely that you actually thought you could get people to pay for a final ending as a DLC.  I hadn't really believed that until now.

Again - the whole star child thing is a travesty, but I would have expected some wierd defense of this, not, you were shocked that your fans, who you clearly understood perfectly up until the last 5 minutes, would have actually wanted to know what happened to all the things they had spent the past 30+ hours working on.

Care to try again?

Agreed. My jaw dropped when I read that they said that. Really Bioware? REALLY?

[thesnake777]

...They actually said that? I....I really hope your F***ing kidding.

[Almostfaceman]

Wait, what?

[TheTrueObelus]

Yeah they said that. It was...stupid.

[DJBare]

It's true, I heard a rumour that all developers are locked in separate rooms without windows or internet access.....well, that's the only logical explanation I can come up with.

Bioware. The key to getting out of a hole the size of a sovereign class Reaper is to stop. digging.

[joshko]

You know through out this whole thing Bioware has consistently left me speechless.
You those times when someone does or says something that is so retarded that the only thing you can do is stare at them in disbelief? Yeah that someone is Bioware.

Horse nuggets. This just gets... dumber.

[TheOptimist]

Yeah, this kind of rings hollow to me.  I KNOW there was a ton of discussion and some darn good ideas thrown around on these boards prior to the games.  If they wanted to know what people wanted in the endings, they really might have wanted to check their own forums...

[Zuka999]

It makes very little sense.

[warrior256]

Seriously? Wow... just... just wow. They actually thought that most of us wouldn't care about having a good ending to a series that we have invested hundreds of hours into? I didn't think it was possible to be that stupid Bioware. I really didn't. You knew that we loved the story, the universe, and the characters yet you thought we would be okay with you not wrapping any of that up. It boggles my mind.

I wasnt very angry with the endings i didnt like them but i wasnt mad but when i looked through old interviews and this vid

i got so pissed i could not stand that they lied this much and now that i got lied to i want them to set it right and not e so prideful to admit they lied or to even address the lies they told i would be happy i they just explained these lies

[Jedifan421]

Yeah...they are just covering their butts and they know it.

[cutegigi]

nah... they are right.
not EVERYBODY want a "better" ending.
there are quite a number of vocal majority that liked the ending.

[WhereEternityEnds]

Hi, I'm WhereEternityEnds and I just took a dump in a cardboard box.

Audience Member #1. Why did you not just take a dump in your own home? On the toilet?

I am very proud of defecating in a cardboard box. I stand by that fact.

They messed up, I guess they are not willing to admit it.

They could not know there would be a demand for the player to have closure on the squad and galaxy, so exactly what were people posting on this forum over the course of two games(ME1&ME2)
They obviously listened to the feedback regarding Garrus and Tali.

[Lozark]

Bioware, we continue to be not dumb. We told you what we wanted to see in ME3 after ME2.

[Hexley UK]

Are you really surprised?

More PR bs and lies you should be used to it by now.

[pfellahX]

Yes, that's why they touted those exact things in the pre-launch build-up... because they didn't know people wanted it.

[sth88]

If you didn't know that there would be a demand for this, then that means you genuinely didn't see all the obvious, glaring problems with the ending as you originally wrote it.

And if you can't see such huge problems with the ending to a series that you have been carefully crafting for over half a decade, then I don't think I can trust you to write good stories anymore.
