I am actually wondering how this will impact future mass effect titles overall...I can simply not enjoy the end of shepherd...it didn't make a lot of sense, but whatever...artistic vision and whatnot. My curiousity comes in considering how they will start a new story after this...will it be a 100 year jump in order to reconcile all plot hooks into a single outcome again?

Did they nerf themselves too much to where they have to official story it?

If I could magic this outcome, I would have focused more on trying to make a path to flow all roads into one outcome for future titles (Perhaps 100 years later...you play Lawson... ;) )

Honestly, I'm feeling like the EC is just gonna be a waste and not really do much for fans. I'd be shocked if it did given it's coming out so soon and what the content is in there.

Damn, I'd started a new complete playthrough for those niggly little things that bothered me, minor things like making sure Helena Blake does the right thing and whatnot. I'd better get cracking!

Oh, and anything to make the ending more 'complete' would be great.  Let's hope it provides the closure that we have been seeking.

Well after listening to the pod cast I have 2 things to say.

1. Its what I expected and I am not inpressed.

2. The EC was limited due to the 2GB DLC limit of xbox360. Sorry xbox owners but this just pisses me off that due to the limits of your console and microsft WE all might suffer.

1.9GB of closure? Wow.....

Just my opinion, but that sounds like a very, very good thing. That's either some very large ending movies (which would be 'meh') or an awful lot of new assets to be rendered/spoken (which would be 'yay').

I'll say this: I'll give it a chance, and I'll give it good faith. I've been a lover of Bioware since I first picked up Kotor, and I HOPE this changes things for the better. I'm not expecting rainbows and lollipops to fly out of Shepard's intergalactic space trousers in a rush of 'Go Team'...but just something that makes SENSE, and isn't full of holes (see: Angry Joe Show).

So, as I wrote on here a few months back...one more chance....

Releasing it on the same day as Skyrim's Dawnguard DLC and forcing me to choose which one to spend my post-work decompression time on?

I didn't think I could hate EA anymore than I did, but I was wrong.

Waste? naa...you can't have too much mass effect.
Even if it doesn't resolve all issues..the fact that they did this, for free, shows that at least they do actually care about the product they put out.
Why?
Well, one of two reasons...either they fully plan on spamming out a new story soon...starting a new character in the future type thing..perhaps to sort out the whole dark energy issue growing in the backdrop, or because they simply want to make their product as good as possible without risking their desired ending collapsing...either way, it is a good move.....name another company that would do that for free...

The ending wasn't crappy...it just was not fitting...this ec is just a bridge from the game I played (the three games I played) to the seemingly unrelated ending....as good as it was...still didn't make sense for my shep).  Honestly, I don't expect it to somehow make more sense. I just hope bioware has learned a lesson here for future titles it creates...and maybe get a lot of fan feedback in focus groups before even starting to implement things in the upcoming titles.  To me, that would be the best outcome of this whole ending debate.

2 gig of new stuff in a few months. makes me wonder why we aren't seeing a new mass effect title every 12 months...

Pretty much this won't change much at the end of the day

Dawnguard will potentially remake the entire gaming experience of skyrim from what I seen. meaning that could be hundreds of hours more of gameplay...makes sense to check this out first, then get relost in skyrim.

I just hope they edited out the whole Normandy crashing on a paradise world thing. That was my biggest issue about the endings. Here's hoping, but I guess I'll have 'clarity' about the meaning behind it, because I was too dumb to know what it meant. /sarcasm off

Why are you apologising to us? Do you hold xbox owners responsible, or think that they're happy about the limits imposed by microsoft? 

On behalf of all xbox users, i forgive your petulance. 

I'm looking forward to the extended cut. I actually like the ending, somewhat, and think that all it needed was a little more explanation and to show us our war assets in action.

I don't understand, why the limit?

They don't allow you to download more than 2gb per day or something?

From what Jessica has previously said on Twitter and some devs have said on these forums it appears that they are changing at least one major aspect of the ending in the destruction of the relays and its lasting effect of hindering space travel. The Stargazer scene makes it plain and clear that even long after the relays are destroyed space travel is not possible. But Jessica and several devs have said that the relays being destroyed doesn't mean new ones can't just be built. The game itself says otherwise, but if they're willing to change that aspect of the ending then why not more? Why not ditch the GodChild altogether?
