I'll just drop this again in the case that we're gonna experience another wave of anti-IT griefing.

Awwwww...what happened to the "sticky'? Go away for most of the day to spend time with the family...and they take the best weekend just for the heck of it gift away!? I will not lie, I am a little disappointed.

Also, was anyone surprised that there did not seem to be much discussion about the "speculations" (ie IT or anythign else) during the panel at CC?

not really surprised actually. For alot of ppl outside of this thread IT is officially dead



As to the bolded...I did say IT or anything else (even if there was a slight typo there).  I guess I was hoping for more of an open discussion about the game.  From what I saw of the coverage of the panel, it seemed like there was a lot of specifically directed discussion.  Not that the discourse was bad...I am just hoping that at some point we get the "ok, here is what we intended moment"...

And lastly, for a theory to truly die - it most be disproven.  And there is nothing that we have seen or heard (in game or out of game) that does this.  IT lives on.  

In fact i've seen some new "proof" (if you wanna call it that) with the whole "serve us"  line that Harbinger says before he Lazors Shep. Anyone else seen that?

Speculations?

So anyone think this is legit?

In the second picture, what can be seen was deemed by some to be a part of the structure around the "destroy" tube.


Look at it guys, and ladys.

I know someone who asked me after his first playthrough yesterday... "Is Shepard indoctrinated?" No this guy has not been up on any of this IT stuff. I had to break it to him that "no Shepard is not indoctrinated. It's just really really bad writing at the end. So bad that your brain is looking for anything that can remotely make any sense out of it. Unfortunately BioWare can't even get their story straight as to what happens.

"Some of the moments are so bad they look like they're out of and old 1950s Ed Wood movie. Take Shepard's wardrobe change after the Laser Blast. You had that Inferno Armor on right? Now it's just charred N7 armor. Who changed it? Did Harbinger send the husks out to do that for you? Or was that scene just shot on a different day and they forgot what you were wearing? Then there was that gun that never ran out of bullets. The last time I saw a gun like that was that submachine gun Clint Eastwood used in 'Where Eagles Dare'."

No your brain has to try to make sense out of it. So it comes up with this way of letting Walters and Hudson off the hook with this stupid Indoctrination Theory. I prefer a different theory that's based on fact: The Can't Write Endings For **** Theory. But face it, BioWare has always been great at writing characters and not so great on writing plot and story.

The Can't Write Endings for **** Theory has no more basis in true fact than IT. And the fact that this someone has never been in contact with IT actually provides a baseline for its legitimacy as a theory. No previous Bioware product has been bad enough to the degree that we'd have to "look for anything that can remotely make any sense out of it" before, not even DA2 (which was bad, but at least it made sense. ME3 did not until, debatedly, the EC, and even then it was still questionable). Historically we know that Bioware is capable of closing a story without completely screwing it up, so why should this case be any different? That is unless they were trying to do some great, mysterious mindscrew twist, and just completely failed at it (hence the formation of IT and various other theories).

The quality of storywriting and endings is completely subjective to each individual player. What you think is crap might be awesome for the rest of us, and vice versa. 

For the record, my personal opinion on their actual storywriting ability is that they are competant. They can write an acceptable, understandable story that is overshadowed by brilliant characters and Fridge Brilliance/Horror. The actual plot itself isn't all that amazing, but it's certainly not bad, either (again my personal opinion).

Masster, while I commend you for your attempt to make peace between the different factions of the BSN, I'd like to remember you that it might be a little bit too early for this.
If someone is really interested in the IT, he'll easily find the thread. Let every one see the ending as they see fit.

I only recently witnessed those MIND-BLOWING slideshows Bioware gave us.

Well this is what we get all the time. So we are ready, and with luck. Sometimes we get a brake from people coming in here and saying IT is wrong.

Oh have you seen Coats on the Citadel. It's weird because he's the Soldier that his helmet is being removed by a keeper. When Sheaprd goes up to the Citadel.
oh and found out that it's Shepards helmet in the EC files on the Helmet the keeper holds.

No one here is being constructive right now (only looked at this page so far) so why you gotta place all that dismissal on a fellow IT-er? I was only letting him know what i've seen these past few days


You mustn't have been paying attention.  There's been quite a bit of discussion a few pages back.

Oh, and stop saying IT is dead.  It isn't.  Lying is bad, mkay?
