Why does he refer to the end as losing the game?

A curious point indeed.

"... if the player loses and gets killed ..." 

Lollipops, puppy dogs, rainbows, and singing unicorns incoming!

More Hacket is the biggest news so far, and a step in the right direction.

Agreed.

Who else, apart from Shep, have been confirmed in the DLC?

Mark Meer or Jennifer Hale have confirmed that they're doing voice work for the DLC? Is this accurate?

Of course it is. Why wouldn't they?

Has this been officially announced? I may have missed something but I haven't seen confirmation from Jennifer Hale or Mark Meer, as already doing actual voice work for the EC.
This is an essential point because without new dialogue from Shepard, the chances that you get to actually confront the Catalyst are slim. And that is a crucial part in opening new alternative(s) to the current endings... (And completely discards the possibility of a new happy ending, meeting the crew, etc...).

They are contracted to come back. They can come back for the EC. Shepard's dialouge is important though. I wouldn't want them to rush it.

I'm with Angry One on this. He was using shorthand simply because the backlash was so negative, he considered it losing. He's a great actor but I doubt he's much of a gamer himself.

I like this human, he understands!

Looks like there's some implications behind certain phrases a certain Lance Henriksen certainly says.

Can we get a non-indcotrination focused "bioware deserves another chance" or "Have faith in bioware" banner? I'd like on of those.

Hell, I'd be willing to commission for one of those.

BioWare deserves nothing. This is their one and only chance to earn back the respect they willingly tossed aside because they thought they could half-ass the ending to a beloved trilogy.

This, all of this.

Belittle and dismiss all you want but I am serious, I am willing to commission via paypal or other such transaction system someone with superior art talent than myself to make a signiture banner that says this, and maybe with a collage of all their recent and older bioware games, recent for bioware deserves another chance one and older for the have faith in biware one.

I am not joking. I don't know where else to post this and making a new topic would probably result in it getting locked.

I also think he understand the nature of the scene he's reading (he's an actor, after all), and likely the explanation he received behind why he's coming back in to elaborate on the ending of a game that's already been released.

Intersting. So we know the squad will have new VOs, Hackett. Who else could be there too? I would imagine Anderson would need some new lines, maybe Cortez too. StarChild definitely (at least IMO). Anyone else? Miranda/Jack? Major Coats?

Because I was under the impression that Shepard was dead in all three endings.

Shepard lives in destroy if you have high enough EMS.

Yeah, I know - I thought it was an easter egg or something. Exactly how could he/she survive a blast of that magnitude when he/she is at its core? More space magic at work?
Unless we can actually say 'no' to the Star Child now or the IT has been incorporated. Then I'd be satisfied.

Same way he survived reentry to a planet.... space magic. 

Actually, he did not. If you remember, Shepard dies at the beginning of ME2, and due to sheer luck, 2 years of work, and insane amount of resources, he is resurrected.

Here he breathes just after being at the epicenter of a 100 kiloton blast. Nothing survives that.

[Taboo]

It's called suspension of disbelief.

[Pelle6666]

When the player looses? What does that mean? You don't loose in the end do you?

Agreed complely. BioWare doesn't deserve another chance because they thought they could actually get away with giving fans a sub-par ending (and other problems throughout the game). I am giving EC a chance because I love Mass Effect, not BioWare.

huh didn't know i lost. interesting... more speculation for everyone

Pushed to the limits.

I don't get it though... from everything I've seen and read, it really seems like BW considers Synthesis to be the 'best' ending.  So, why does a supposedly sub-par ending have Shepard survive?

If it was intended as a 'Fable II' style choice (save your dog, but kill lots of people), they didn't spend enough time afterwards to drive that point home.

It's Lance's way of calling us all losers.

I think Bioware already cemented the Shepard surving being the best ending regardless of their intentions when they allowed it to happen in the first place. It has the highest EMS score requirement.

Besides, they are more than aware that most people, at least on the BSN like Destroy. Gamble was assaulted verbally on Twitter when he gave his version of the best choice.

Needless to say.

What I'm saying is even with a spacesuit on it's impossible to survive reentry into an atmosphere. He would have burned up before he hit the ground. So..... space magic :wizard:

Hope is what is happening.

I think.

[Doofe2012]

When Lance says, "When the player loses the game," I wonder if he shares the sentiment that ME3 ends in a way that doesn't even seem like victory.

Yes, there is that. I had given them a pass that time due to "suspension of disbelief", and it was the beginning of the game (you can ignore that it happened), but yes, it's really not very plausable.

excellent news. when henrikson says that bioware said "there was a problem with the ending", thats comes across to me as bioware knows the ending sucks. have they been planning this all along? things are becoming very slightly more clear, but still not clear enough to make it out.

Why is your first thought that Bioware planned the ending because they know it sucks, instead of knowing it sucks because EVERYONE told them?
