I think this is great if for no other reason than that it's piling additional pressure, and focusing even more attention, onto EA for business practices that many consider distasteful. You can be certain that the gaming industry as a whole is paying keen attention to how the BBB/FTC/retake/ending/day 1 dlc debacle plays out.

Even to those who liked the ending, there are benefits to be had by letting these mega-game-conglomerates know that theres only so much abuse we'll take before putting our collective foot down. Like, oh, I don't know, making them think twice before trying their next sneaky little tactic to wring more money out of people.

Let's suppose you're reading this and saying "I don't mind day 1 dlc. I don't mind online passes. I don't mind restrictive DRM. None of it affects me." Well, that's all well and good, but each of these practices was once a precursor to another; and eventually they are going to do something that does ****** you off. You may get up in arms about it, but there won't be enough people angry about it to change anything, right?

That's why keeping the pressure on here is so vital. This is a rare opportunity to send a message that can't be ignored. The other day I was feeling kinda burnt out on this whole thing, but I took a step back, relaxed for a couple days, and now I'm ready to continue making my voice heard. If anybody else is feeling like throwing in the towel, I recommend you do the same.


Needs to be read by more people. +1

I have gotten some great laughs from people that just a week or two ago damned all gaming websites because they had writers posting articles that do not agree with them. Now that a person at the BBB on their blog said (and this is just shorthand) "some of the statments made by BioWare are false advertising" these very same websites become link worthy again.

I have come to respect the opinions of many ME fans who hated the endings...but this is just too much. Does this mean we are now welcoming the age of "tour guide" gamerism, where whiners actually can force game developers everywhere to make changes on something they don't agree with? 


No one will ever be able to make EA and BioWare shutdown, but I agree this is just pathetic. this is too much for a videogame

Why? It is a product like anything else.


Oh no, you see video games are entitled to their ~artistic integrity~. False marketing is only a natural thing in the video games industry, just look at all the fans cheering for us and defending our shady business practices, no need for regulations. At all.

"It’s not even in any way like the traditional game endings, where you can say how many endings there are or whether you got ending A, B, or C"
"The endings have a lot more sophistication and variety in them. It would be interesting to see if somebody could put together a chart for that."
http://www.gameinfor...x=2&PageIndex=3


And, based on the choices you make in this game, and the choices you've made in previous games, and the total number of war assets you have, there are many more than three different possible endings.

So... once again. Just because your ridiculous expectations weren't met =/= BioWare lied to you.


What's your stake in this?  You're spending a whole lot of time and energy trying very hard to discredit the BBB.  I haven't seen anyone spend this much time and energy defending EA since DragonlordZ and the Origin thread.  You appear to have a reason for ardently defending EA since the BBB release,  I've found you on every thread related to it.


  Bioware PR? Image IPB


Certainly acts the part.

So, who do you two work for? Apparently you two have an obession with labelling others as plants, maybe you have insights due to your own connections to other gaming companies you like to share?

Or are you simply trolling?

I work for ** ******** ****, and he has been EVERYWHERE, it is hard to fight the feeling when his tactics are straight out of the PR troll guy handbook.

You mean, like defending the company that I've been a fan of since BG1 from ridiculous attacks based on faulty evidence, outright lies, and slanderous accusations? 

I do this, on my own free time, for no compensation, because of people like you. If you want to scream about how awful BioWare is and how much you want to see them burn, and don't want anyone stepping up to defend them... do it somewhere else. I'm a fan. These boards are for fans. You're NOT a fan. Why the hell are YOU here?

No, you have been in like every single thread that was negative to them for the last couple of days. And most accusations have ground to stand on, you can't deny that effectively.
I would hate to see BW burn, i just want them to open their barely functioning eyes.
You are here like in every thread most of the day. You are not a *FAN* any more than i am, and liking the end or something like that doesn't prove anything.

Really? Of the two of us, which one of us is accusing the other of being a paid PR troll? Which of us has demanded that others report the other for daring to voice an alternative opinion? Hmm?

Yeah, so, we'll be going with my definition, not yours.

Really? *EVERY* thread? Becuase I bet you that if I spent, maybe, 2 or 3 seconds looking, I could find a bunch that I haven't been involved in. It's hyperbole like that that makes me defend BioWare, just for the record.

I say the same stuff too, so by your logic I must also be a plant. You constantly say the same stuff as well, hence, you MUST be working for a rival company then, yes? That's your logic anyway.
