The pro-enders are just the distinct minority. Only 1 in 50 people liked the ending as-is.

I find it amusing that the anti-enders who became so enraged at being call a minority are now pulling the same rhetoric just because a few preliminary polls favor their position. :whistle:

Can we please stop the biased non-representative statistics now? I'm not looking to get into a discussion, so I will simply request(it is still your choice but please) that you do not stray from the spirit of this thread if you intend post in it.

I never get enraged. Do you have some evidence the pro-enders are the majority? Hmmm? Image IPB

I wasn't speaking of you personally and I have said in previous posts that I think it is too early to say authoritatively one way or another.  Consider the original Star Trek didn't do well then it was first aired... it wasn't until later when it was in syndication that it exploded.

Biased, self-selecting polls have predictive power if the sample is large enough and the results are lopsided enough. You just need to increase the margin of error.

If we use the empirical-inductive method, sure, after all there are more pro-Enders in this thread, and therefore that must apply to the rest of the population.

See I can use BS methods and theories, and while it is not definitive proof it is just about as solid as yours

That is the method of quantity, what if(missed that one during proofread) we employ the method of quality instead? Professional game reviewers praise the game, and since they posses expertise beyond mine(and presumably most others) the game must be good.

Remember you proof is only as good as your source.

These types of polls are used by companies.

The difference is 100 people vs. 71,000 people.

And sometimes companies f*** up, every method has a weakness, my point is that you can always bend data to support your point. And if you really want to disprove my method you will have to use the hypothetical-deductive method, do this by finding atleast half the people who bought the game and the get a clear answer then I'm going to believe you (was that condescending? God I hope not, but if it was I'd like to say sorry)

Nobody has definitive proof, there are ways either side can look at it that puts them as the largest group. Getting into a thing about that is pointless.

I just didn't appreciate popping into the thread and the first post I see talks about "whining anti-enders."

Not all pro enders are trolls, just people like you.

Half your posts are flame bait nothing more, each thread i see you enter it's designed to intentionally cause trouble.

Pure mob mentality, join the biggest crowd and all that, perhaps the hundred reviewers were the only ones with the guts to stand up for themselves.

Im not saying that you are wrong, I'm just concluding that you aren't necessarily correct.

Yes, companies use these types of polls. You don't have to believe it. But that's why you have to increase the margin of error. It's not 2%. However, it may be 10% or 30%. But it's not 51%.

Besides, there is confirming evidence everywhere. Don't put your head in the sand.

Okay, sorry if this got a bit out of hand, I would like some more discussion, but it would divert attention from the true purpose of the thread. PM me it would be cool.

To be fair, they can't introduce new endings if they want to continue the Franchise and have everyone start off at point A. A lot of my anger has been abated by this announcement, and I re-purchased me2 and me3 for xbox 360 since I had me2 and collectors me3 for ps3. I digitally downloaded ME1 so I could have the three full game experience. In other words, yes I am back to being a bioware fanboy so long as this ending dlc is done right.

Good joke, but really, you seem to understand the theory just fine so clearly you aren't stupid, which means you are debating it purely for the sake of it(that is cool by the way) but at least we can agree to disagree right?

  Ain't that the truth, thing is that there have been polls on the subject on to many sites to dismiss, even with that argument. The ENTIRE serious gamer community knows at least something about this, and i will bet that many of them have voted. Enough have voted to get at least semi-accurate results, thing is that all of these polls have said the same thing: an overwhelming majority want the games ending changed.

I didn't love the endings, but certainly didn't think they were the worst ending in history, oblivion anyone?
The EC DLC is exactly what I wanted. As long as bioware continues its decade long trend of giving me exactly what I ask, and ignore those of opposite opinions than me, I'll continue to be their fanatic fan.

calrification: I believe that all people have the right to their own opinion, and noone should harras them just because they have a different opinion than theirs. whats importent is that mine is the only one that matters, so there's no reason to argue over it.
