In all seriousness, I'm really intrigued by this.

An assumption is still an assumption, and an assumption does not equal fact. Regardless of how many people played it or not. Going by your logic, the events of Mass Effect 1 and 2 should not be considered canon because not everyone played them. 


No that is not my logic.  I have already said that if you did not play ME1 and ME2, the events that you did are clearly explained to you in the beginning of and throughout ME3.  If indeed my Shep destroyed Object Rho, ME3 is lying to me in 3 places about it. 

 If you insist that a comic about Arrival made the events of Arrival canon, then clearly ME3 retcon'd it, because ME3 is in fact canon as well, and it came out later than the comic.  Again, unless you think ME3's explanation of the events in Arrival are errors by the writers, the game explicitly contradicts it.  This is either because the events were not canon to begin with, or Bioware changed canon.



We'll just agree to disagree on Arrival then. Even without that DLC, there is still a million 'n one ways Shepard could have been affected by the reapers and indoctrinated. Shepard walked around inside one afterall. 


That is true.  If it turns out Shep is indoctrinated, Bioware will either choose not to explain how it happened, or will come up with an alternative method of indoctrination that does not include Arrival.

Woah woah woah. Jessica Merizan just said we might get an end decision with 3-4 decisions.........


huh...what could be an additional choice that doesn't involve anything IT-y?


Who knows.  Maybe it'll be the "shoot yourself" ending that so many claimed to want at the beginning, just to avoid the choice. 


Or maybe shoot starbrat in his smug little face.Posted Image

Thought about that too, but besides causing the ultimate fanrage, it would be absolutely non-explainable withouth IT. And that is not gonna be tackled in the EC.

So is it just me or did the LOK finale have more plotholes than the literal mass effect 3 ending? I'm so disappointed in that finale, it actually made me lose hope in IT. It showed me that writers who were clearly capable of great things could finish up a masterpiece with a lump of crap.

To be fair, the '3-4 decisions' could just refer to how some people count surviving destroy as a different ending than destroy.

I'm reading that Deception rage comic right now.

I just got to the cereal part. That actually happens?

Looking forward to the video, HellishFiend!


Yeah, it actually FRAKKING happens.  And so, Kai Leng, Cereal Killer, was born.


God, that book is so frakking stupid.

The only thing I really think is canon of the things you listed is that Shep destroyed Object Rho. Shep's gender is specifically kept vague in the novels and comics, as far as I know.


Clearly the best option is to make canon Shepard a hermaphrodite. That'd please everybody.

All this talk of Arrival reminds me of how much I hated the intro. They should've had better alternatives.

Anderson: When you blew up the Alpha Relay hundreds of thousands of batarians died!
*Shepard quickly raises his right arm*
Shepard: Highfive!

The rage comic  hurt my brain, but it did have a hilarious bit where What's-His-Face was running around dressed up like Snake.

I am intrigued by the 3-4 decisions comment.

I'm saying I'm fairly sure that players
are aware thats what would have happened had they played
the Arrival DLC, so I see no reason to include the marines as a
backup if they hadnt


Well, I think it is their way to show disdain for those, who didn't buy DLC. If you didn't played DLC, that means that you are not dedictated enough game, so you deserve -50 to War Assets. Something like that.

So, my hope for the EC has been renewed simply because I've moved on from my doubts. Also, the Arc Pistol frakking SUCKS.

Look, people coming in here to tell us we're wrong. WE GET IT.

YOU DON'T LIKE I.T.

We do, so we discuss it in here so that you don't have to hear about it out there. I know mods are cracking down on you for starting IT threads out of this one, but that doesn't mean you get to come in here and start sh!t with antiquated arguments and baseless assumptions.

Before you argue against I.T., know the facts. I can tell at a glance the first time most of you post that you have no idea what you're talking about and you have not done your research. So please, go study, then argue with us if you still have a problem with a story interpretation about a fictional universe that doesn't even exist and has NO BEARING ON YOUR LIFE WHATSOEVER.
