I'd be very curious to hear a follow-up interview from Mark Meer after his playthrough(s) of ME3. After all, he knows where the story went as he was doing the voice-work, but there's a large issue of presentation as far as the ending goes (along with other opinions about the ending) that getting his perspective on-from BOTH sides-would be very interesting and enlightening.

I'd also be curious of Jennifer Hale's opinion as well, but I have yet to see an interview where she has indicated she plays video games and the ME series in particular. Please correct me if I'm wrong on that.


I too would love to know what MM things after playing ME3. 




Ms. Hale has actually stated that she has never finished any of the ME games.....no I dont have a link....its old news.....YouTube it.....the interview is less than 6 months old

You don't need a VA.

Also, not all actors tweet...

Lastly, Liara is way over utilized in ME3. She's great but she's given way too much screen time.



She wasn't anything more than a cameo in ME2.....and a side kick on one mission, released as dlc, over a year after release.....


I don't see the issue....


It seems people really do just complain about anything these days

:blink:

LotSB was released the same year - September of 2010. ME2 was released January 2010. In addition, she was given her own comic series to star in AND takes the place of the romance interest if there isn't one OR if you romanced ANYONE else besides the VS. You don't see the problem?

The fact that was given a DLC and was given alot of screentime in ME3 is problematic when you start comparing her to Ashley/Kaidan. Both were given dialog less then her in ME2. Didn't have a DLC. And were essentially non-existent after the coup attempt.

"clarification" I hate that word so damn much. I don't want the endings clarified. I want them to blow my mind. Please don't disappoint Bioware. This means a lot to us.

 Oh my. I might have a little crush on Mark Meer after that painfully charmingly dorky joke. I'm currently doing a run-through of the entire trilogy on my first MaleShep ever, and I have to say, he really improves from game to game. I still prefer FemShep, however. It's nice to see both sides of the coin, though.

Also, I don't think it's really a big deal that he hasn't played it himself yet. They have a director with them in the recording booth that gives them context; telling them pretty much what's going on in that particular moment, so I'd say he has just as much of an understanding of the ending as we do. More, even; they'd have surely explained the ending to him with more context, insight, and clarity than they did to us.

All I can tell you is that anyone who was/is/will be hoping for the general theme of the ending to change... you might as well leave and never come back right now. Bioware is not going to scrap and rewrite it. I'm sorry.

Clarification, and maybe a different option or two, is going to be the best you can hope for that final choice.  If that is unacceptable to you, if that cannot possibly sate your bile... there's really no point in you still being here.  Walk away.  You'll only be more angry in the end if you stay.

Tell that to the Indoc people.

It's being reworked but it isn't changing. You'll still have everything we have now but only in a larger capacity.

Or them being rescued. People won't care as long as that happens.

I'm the opposite, I've always done male Sheps but considering a femShep playthough when I finish my current Shep. 

It's not that Mark wouldn't be up-to-speed to record his lines.  It's that Mark is also a gamer and it'd be interesting to see what his opinion is of the endings when he experiences them as a player.

I don't expect a "scrpt and rewrite"... I'd like it but I don't expect it.  

I believe they'll change/expand the dialog with Star Brat hopefully make it logical and fit the lore. 

I believe they'll change/expand the RBG.  I hope for more differences based on EMS and maybe previous choices in game. 

I also believe they'll add an epilogue for our crew and LI.  A LI reunion if shepard lives, Shepard funeral/memorial, Normandy rescue, etc.   I hope they'll also show a scene of the galaxy rebuilding.

I'm curious as to what DLC was being worked on before BioWare had to shelve it in order to do the EC.

"Actually, I have had a couple of DLC recording sessions thus far - one was done while I was in England for the most recent London Improvathon. Luckily, I did my recording BEFORE I stayed awake performing for 50 straight hours... Shepard might have sounded more like a Vorcha."

I've got to wonder how goofy that DLC is going to be when they dropped it half-way through to do another one before they go back to it. Nothing ever turns out well when you postpone it for months before trying to finish it later.

I'll care.

I'll care if I don't get to have Shepard punch Joker in his brittle face for running away and leaving me to die in a pile of rubble.

Well she had an entire DLC dedicated to her, which is more than any other existing character has ever gotten, so yeah, I'd say that makes up for it. No, Zaeed/Kasumi/Javik don't count because they require DLC to exist.

Actually, I'd pay for that as an Extended scene. Like a blooper reel or something.

It isn't wrong now. Calling it a theory is.

It would be really cool if Bioware went with it but I don't see them doing it.

No it isn't.

An interpretation is not the same as a Theory.

Did you know that if you speak Yiddish you're a semantic semitic?

No, not a blooper reel. If he really did run away with the Normandy it needs to be real and canon. His uppance MUST come. And yeah, I'd totally pay for it.

But you're arguing a moot point so you can feel like you aren't wrong. The indoctrination interpretation stands.

Calling it a theory is wrong. Claiming you have evidence is wrong.

That isn't what an interpretation is.

Eraserhead wasn't made for the market, it was made for Lynch's own purposes. Consumer productions dropped half-way through and then picked up after substaintial amounts of time tend to feel disjointed.
