you can't stop my multiplayer sessions for a cause and faith I've too long ago abandoned (though must admit, bored with multiplayer too after sleuths of successful NON-geth farming gold sessions..).

none of this will make Bioware 'fix' things or get them abandon the 'integrity' they've really clung to since the beginning of all this.

just let it be mangs, just let it be. we'll just have to see what comes our way in the summer.

hmm just thought about the bold. you know what, i will turn it on for you on saturday, just so i can resume turning it off as i'd been for the last week or two.

good luck guys!

They know they can make money off of you, no matter how much you cry boycott. They know you'll fold because you've proven it so many times in the past. They will create campaign DLC and you will buy it, with or without this pointless exercise.

Are you saying this because you know you'll cave?

I sure as hell won't. Without a properly salvaged ending DLC is pointless. I haven't even bothered touching multi-player, either. Hell, our Origins account has been shut down since the middle of March. Saturday will be the first day since that it'll be fired up and ME3 opened.

I can't speak for anyone but my fiance and myself but we aren't going to back down on this, and I hope everyone who says they'll stop buying Bioware sticks to it.

Maybe some poeple will, but I'm so fed up with EA I haven't bought any of their games not made by Bioware since the first Army of Two, and I bought that used.

 I'll support this!

Occupy Wall St has a lot to answer for. Hipsters and their movements. Not that I disagree with all movements Occupy had the right idea (wrong execution) Kony 2012 (right idea wrong execution). Retake ME3 ending (In the grand scheme of things completely irrelevant). Oh well good luck to you anyway I suppose but I won't be taking part, I'm indifferent to the ending and think that the extended cut should be fine.

Nothing that people feel passionate about is irrelevant.

So we are suppose to play the single player, then the next day shut it off? Is this how it all works?

My lack of faith is falling in Bioware. One of my favorite gaming companies has completely 180 in the past two years. Dragon Age 2 was a disaster. That franchise is dead unless they bring back the Warden for DA3.

ME3 had great gameplay, its just the whole chaos vs. order, then the starchild with the roulette of picking a color all sucked. ME1 and ME2 was all about stopping reapers, why bring in the second thoughts at the very end of the game. It was like, "hey shep, you can destroy the reapers, oh by the way now you could control them or become cyborg with everyone in the galaxy."

And Jade Empire, where is my sequel Bioware?! I demand satisfaction of having a sequel to the greatest game. If you haven't played it, your missing a fantastic story. Sequel or remake with additions, don't pull a fast one like Bungie and redo the graphics.

This year will decide Bioware's fate. New ending to redeem ME3. DA3 to repair the damage DA2 did to the franchise. And hopefully a new game Bioware. *cough*Jade Empire 2*cough*

Well, not me, actually - they haven't proven anything to me before, nor have I proven to fail regarding BW before either. Mass Effect is the only BioWare game I have played (and yes, I have played Pogo (EA) a while back with my husband LOL).
These are the only things I have purchased from Bioware/EA

BUT they,  on the other hand, have surely proven to me what I should avoid in the future! 
(including Pogo - which we have abandoned a long time ago)

I'll quote myself now, from another thread, since i just posted it and cannot stop laughing.

I simply put my (Xbox) controller down, in a deep sigh, and it went on by itself ...it has a tendency to do that …straight into Synthesis. 

I did a 2nd playthrough, because I was curious about "that easter egg", but since I'm a Single Player 

 - and wasn't aware that I had to use my iPhone for a game series I've spent 1000's of SEK on, 
to press a button every 108 minutes or so, to get more EMS - 

I never got that easter egg...which turned out to nothing but a "breath" after all... Ha ha ha this I just laugh now, 

This has got to be the stupidest game-art-thinking ever! :lol:

Sorry ppl, I can't help laughing, and I do laugh at myself now, as well, for my engagement/disappointment

I do, however, support the retakers, even though I should probably not be considered one myself.
I do it for the cause, and their positive and optimistic thinking.

Just in for a quick look and update. Sorry I can't reply to some of the interesting comments but I gotta go to work. Special mention to Pikey1969 for coming around - yay!

In 24 hours we managed to rack up 400 attendees on Facebook and that's not counting people like me who aren't on Facebook. GO, TEAM MILKY WAY! Keep spreading the news in any way you can think of! Don't ask for permission, just do it (civilly). If anyone can reach Forbes, Kotaku, IGN, etc., today, please do so! If you are a regular on other threads here (like the LI ones or endings ones), please take this idea over there and talk it up. I'm pretty much seen as a spammer there.

If you see a "I can't play the game any more" threads, go there and recruit -- those are exactly the people who need to hear about this. They are unwittingly marginalizing themselves by not playing. By suffering through 5 minutes of SP on Saturday they can make a big impact and save their Shepards.

Please like the facebook campaign at Reddit!
http://www.reddit.com/tb/sn6sf

Mike Gamble tweeted about this campaign yesterday. It's interesting to know he was paying attention to this on a Sunday afternoon. (Please, no bashing of Mr. Gamble! That will definitely get this thread locked! I'm sorry if his weekend was wrecked, but this campaign must go on.) If you need proof, head on over to the HoldTheLine.com sister thread. DrowVampyre has some new skinny banners over there on page 25 or so that should work well here. I'll put them up here tonight.

In future, if I need to make any sort of announcements, I will post them at the top of the OP, so check there periodically, BUT I'll be at work for at least the next 10 hours, so don't expect anything new from me in that time.

Please keep up the positive momentum! It feels good to be hopeful for a change, doesn't it? You are doing amazing work in not much time and Bioware is paying attention!

See you tonight!

I know what you mean, I actually get annoyed sometimes at the people thtat act tlike the ending is the only thing wrong with the game.  I think a good ending will go a long way towards fixing the game, but to bring it on par with Bioware's past games it needs a lot more then that.

Yes, I agree. (and the last thing you said, about fixing the ending, may at least give some satisfactory in playing the two games before ME3) :-D

I do, however, believe the ending has been the "thing", since that is our last memory of the game - which is natural- even though to me, I do not even come to a point as to call it an ending (as you all can see above).

And then people started to realise many other things as well, which is good. :-) 
I do, like you do, wish there were more people participating in e.g. a thread like this one (click).

The multiplayer/shooting-game, which ME3 obviously is, is not for me (nor for many others --- and I've seen a few multiplayers that aren't very pleased, due to its repetetiveness. When I look at it on youtube, I feel the Arena in Fable II would give me more - and it doesn't require Multiplayer(!) - but that's my personal feeling) ;-)

From what I've been reading, there are so many who haven't even replayed the game, which could also be a reason (for "just" remembering the "ending" -- I'm not trying to act wise or anything, just thinking out loud here, so you all know).

And then there are others who enjoyed the "ending" which, of course, is good for them. :-)

This reminds me of the recent "turn off COD" campaign. It's nice to see gamers getting together to get what they feel they deserve. For that reason alone I'll join up . 'Bout time the ME community got together and did something.


But do I really need a Twitter? I despise Twitter.

Oh no, not at all!  


I, like Tleining, am not on Facebook, nor will I ever use Twitter.

PS. Go dbollendorf!

Ah, some unborn dicator will love you. By your arguments your assumption is infallible therefore the effort is wasted.
Very well, you cannot be convinced otherwise ergo arguing with you is a waste of time.
That being established you should ask yoruself why you feel the need to attempt to dissuade anyone else?

I shall assume (And I'll take the chance that I might be wrong) that you don't believe this but have been hurt to badly to hope and feel the need to lash out at others who still do- perhaps enoboling your actions through the belief that you're doing good.

Or, if my assumption is wrong, you're just being a jerk.

Either way, I shall be involved in this.
And your initial assumption is false, of this I cannot be dissuaded.

Be on your way.
