if you counted the exact number of plotholes then sir you need another hobby!Or medical treatment hahaha!Joking but come on, most science fiction stories have huge plotholes...look at matrix.Still I think I will be happy with some closure though


Matrix was torn apart for its plot holes and has a horrible rating for that.

In any case, we're talking about games, good games don't have huge plotholes, or you'll see they're not considered good games.

yes but the mistake is that they think their way of thinking is what everyone elses should be.That pisses me off.Particularly from the Retakers. " you like the ending" then you're stupid... pretty narrow minded if you ask me

Nothing to do with changing/fixing the actual ending of the game. Ohh and MetaCritic User Scores "0/10!!! Worst game ever" are about 10 times more biased than those from profrssional reviewers. Ohh and MP is very popular actually and people do like it, whether it suits you or not. You'll just have to deal.

Partially valid questions, however, how do you already know they won't be addressed in EC?

Day 1 dlc. This and multiplayer where I have to disagree with you on, op. Everything else though I agree.

It's an option. If you don't want to pay for it, you don't have to. If you don;t like it, you have the option to buy the game for less.

Would you feel the same way about day one dlc if the multiplayer was optional?

There are 2 things that apparently aren't going to change. The ending and peoples view of the people who want a new ending. Regardless of however many absolutely valid points are made by countless people, there will always be the group that says stop whining and stfu.

Its actually almost as sad as the ending to this trilogy. The fact that no matter how many holes, glaring omissions, PR typographical slaps in the face and free candy corn they hand out, they apparently aren't listening and don't care. That is EA, BW and the other haters on here. You may not have hated the ending as much as some of the others on here, but constantly dropping in with nothing to add to these discussions is just as annoying as you claim people like us are by creating these threads.

I guess when you're a hypocrite though, you and EA/BW don't have to admit your faults and failures, seeing as you both feel you don't have any.

We got epilogue and closure, which is not what we need and doesn't fix the PLOT HOLES.

If you told me you were giving me a cuban cigar and you didn't, and for some reason I thought a reputable source because you seemed to be one, I'd expect an apology or for you to make up for your lie.

I can make better examples too.


Well Vas.... plot holes existed in all 3 games so i can overlook those.  But what I particularly wanted WAS closure.  That to me was the most GLARING omission in the end.  

I would imagine with all this talk of choices not mattering in the end... CLOSURE is what people want.  They want to see the outcome of their decisions int he aftermath of the ending no?  Thats what GOOD closure would provide.

thats what I want


When you have over 42 plotholes that literally make your entire game full of holes and not the nice small swiss cheese holes but HUMOGOUS imported cheeses you can't pronounce type of holes.. you can't relate that to "well they all had it".

The truth is, if you fix the holes, and you do as the developers promised AFTER the game went gold, you will fix every single issue in this game outside of bugs, because the closure will automatically be there because the ending has to be modified so as to fit the plot without plotholes that are so gigantic you could fit a horses genitals through it.

---

Closure while plotholes exist would be lying to the players, because the closure would make no sense, it would not be established in continuity.


well i cant even think of GIANT plot holes outside of some ending issues that really stick out to me, but i can also think of plot holes and inconsistincies that can void the entire premise of the first game too *shrug* I just overlook them.

As for Closure, there will ALWAYS be plot holes (they've existe din all 3 games mind you) so providing closure wouldn't be lying nor make no sense.

It would be a nice way to finish out the series though.  As I WANT to know what happens in the aftermath.

I call bull****. You cannot say that he was well foreshadowed. He's meant to be the conclusion to an epic triology.

Mentioning him in one scene in the latter half of the third installment is not appropriately setting up a twist ending for a series. It just isn't.

*Except not really.

Would people please stop saying stuff like this? People said it about Extended Cut, people said it about the face import issue, people said it about the Resurgence Pack. But the thing is it hasn't been true, not once. If you claim that a "reprioritization" of an existing DLC plan (Extended), a broken patch, and some free multiplayer crap is what people wanted- you don't know what you're talking about. Period.

The reason people keep whining after each EA/Bioware press release is because they still have yet to address our grievances. Said grievances include:

-Day 1 DLC.
-Face import still being broken.
-The introduction of a new character at the last second with 0 foreshadowing.
-The complete abandonment of any pretense that our decisions have a real impact on the outcome of the story.
-The fact that you explicitely stated over and over and over that you wouldn't force space magic or deus ex machinas on us.

Nail on the head,
I agree with this statement 99% and BW / EA continues to think there is no problem, or its just "the biggest reaction to a game" nevermind its negative. Whos ego would it kill over there to just admit they dropped the ball and agree to fix it already?

Trust me the plotholes in ME1 are extremely minimal, I've done the same analysis on that game as I did on ME2 and ME3, ME3 has ones that destroy the entire established continuity of the series, ME1 is creating a series.

I absolutely agrre that it is an extra, and if people don't want to pay for it, they don't have to. To that I ask this, how do you explain how Jahvik, when used, flows so flawlessly in the ENTIRE story. On top of that, has a full line of powers, abilites and other extras? That to me says that he was designed to have been part of the game all along, but was strategically pulled and sold for extra income.

Pretty much.

And, furthermore, half the things he started his post off with today is BS. I'm going to guess he is about 17-years old. Lot of angst and a lot of time = Overule.

I agree with one of your point ( Face import still being broken. ). Though I didn't have such issue with all my Sheps.

Well, closure CAN resolve plot holes.
Not like it's my problem with the ending, but your may be solved.

I haven't played the dlc, so I can't say how well it intergrates into the game.

It could have been developed in parallel and planned as dlc from the beggining. It could have been removed and changed to dlc. Game designs change in development all the time. Good writing will work in either case. What matters is the product at the time I purchase it. With the way the ending has gone (I don't like it, and feel strongly about it) I'm not worried about that extra bit. If the extended cut dlc changes/explains the ending in a way I find preferable, then I'll probably buy the From Ashes dlc. I still have the option.

What would constitute an appropriate setup for a twist ending?

And wan't it pretty obvious that something damn weird was going to happen in the ending? We've got this super-advanced incredibly powerful gadget that even the Protheans didn't really understand, nobody knows what it's supposed to do except that it's going to stop the Reapers somehow.... while I didn't expect the Catalyst per se, I certainly did expect that level of strange.

Where did you got that "good amount" info from? Because of course, when speaking about thousands of people there's always black sheeps but they're usually less than 1%.

Layers upon layers of subtle hints dropped the entire length of the narrative from the 1st installment. That's an appropriate setup for a twist ending that's been built up for 5 years.

Sorry.

No. No matter how it's denied, it's because Tycho didn't want to be linked with anything Anti-EA.

EA and Harmonix have both run similiar promotions.
