Well, this sensible thinking. The only real question is how much affect this and future DLC has in shaping the final result.

[clennon8]

I am a fan of this theory.

[Jadebaby]

thanks for your support.

[MstrJedi Kyle]

If this theory proves true I might actually purchase the SP DLC

[Binary_Helix 1]

You're not the first person to propose this. Several others did long before you but hopefully you're not in it for the glory.

No, im just trying to get as much information as I can from other people to add to the theory to make it bigger. Full of more 'speculations' and such.

[thewarden500]

This is so far my favorite speculation. I'd just like to point out that all the multiplayer ops may just be a distraction for the construction of the Crucible (He-3 for the Crucible, intel to hold off Reapers to buy Shep more time and such) but I sincerly hope what you're saying is right, Jade! Officially becoming a fan of this theory.

P.S. Someone should make a banner for this theory because one can never have enough banners

I think that if they actually have the gall to make us pay for the ending we should've had all along, the true ****storm has yet to begin.

I must be the only person who wouldn't be bothered by this and actually think that kind of piece meal, tease the fans mercilessly marketing is really clever.

oh yes! I need to get some created haha...

Maybe I'll add it to the OP..

Your theory is already proved to be accurate:

Javik expand certain parts of story which without him would left unanswered

Leviathan leak showed that Catalyst´s conversation will be changed again...

And who knows how much content will be once again changing whole point of view on the game.

[Baronesa]

I really like this theory... gotta combine it with the Jam theory, somehow.

[Applepie_Svk]

Puzzle and Jam ? Hmm... LoL

But still it´s wrong when we will recieve main-plot important parts via DLC, it´s like saying that game is unfinished.

I support it - I was actualy thinking about something like this from the start.

I now one thing for certain - MP operations are leading somewhere - what lies after we compleate this campain is vague.

I might ADD one onother puzzle to your theory

If we would have allready the best possible ending in game from the start - playing and compleating all DLCs Operations and stuff would be meaningless.
If they all contribute to a final spectacular ending it will be a great service to faithfull fans who stayed with the series to the very end.

I wonder if Operation failiers could somehow affect this supposed ending  

for an example:
"- Asari  population on Thessia  has beed decimated becouse of the fail of Operation Silencer "

It would be nice

Bu - but I like the asari  Also, General Grevious is so freakin' cheap with four simultaniously twirling lightsabers but badasses will be badasses :happy:

While that would suck majorly, it'd be a cool way to give extra weight to the weekend operations. Just one more reason to participate and as for the single player coming together through DLC's, a good incentive for us to buy those DLC's. I'm with Jade in that I'm at the point where I'm willing to spend some cash for the super-duper ending (hopefully I can tell Starbrat where to stick it without losing, unlikely but one can hope.) Besides, I'm always up for opportinuties to discover more lore, visit new places, get more exp and of course, kill more bad guys. 

Overusing emoticons ftw!!!!  :lol:

This is a pretty interesting idea. It also makes sense.

[UniqueName001]

I'm trying not to get my hopes up (and failing, as usual). But I can't even say how awesome it would be if this turned out to be true.

[The Heretic of Time]

The realist in me says this theory is just wishful thinking and very unlikely to be true.

The optimist in me hopes that this theory actually is true and does fix the mess that the current ME3 plot left behind. I highly doubt it though.

The pessimist in me doubts it's even possible to fix this mess, because the plot of ME3 is just way too crappy to be able to fix. The pessimist in me tells me that ME3's plot is FUBAR.

[Jadebaby]

@ applepie and Angmir, will add both speculations to OP.

Could i trouble you to appeal to your optimistic side again for some input to the theory?

Jam theory?

[ld1449]

For the sake of what was once my favorite sci-fi, I hope your right.

I find it improbable at this point, highly so. But I hope I'm wrong.

So they are hacking stuff that should be in the game and selling 'em seperately? I'm all for this theory if the pieces of puzzle DLCs come free but that's not what I'm seeing..

no, because if it was all included in the original game. It would ruin the experience and also contradict their canon timline set through  multiplayer.

I see your point. All right then, though I don't expect to see anything like that, I'm a bit too pessimistic; but I'd definitely be glad if I'm proved wrong.

[Tenten_Tenten]

I honestly hope this is the case. I can't bring myself to play ME3 again with these endings, the EC made them a little bit better but I still can't stand the idea of agreeing with the catalyst, which is what we are forced to do right now.

Considering any war assets we get from dlc are likely to be very significant story wise I think this makes sense in that they would greatly boost our chances of a victory through refusal (it's not really conventional victory if we have the help of an ancient leviathan from the time of the reapers creation, just for example... and if that's what happens in this dlc!)

This could even lessen the complaints of EMS not really mattering at all, with a separate counter of bigger assets. It stands to reason that game changing sp dlc would lead to a stronger refusal than, say, one promoted mp soldier.

In regards to this basically being charging for the real ending:

I don't really mind that much as long as the dlc itself is of good quality. I mean, if I liked the endings I would be buying the dlc anyway... so in the end it makes no difference.

Here's hoping this is the case and I can happily return to ME soon! Fingers crossed...

So informative, was this comment really needed? Because several others have made comments like this long before u.


Ok on topic: the Mp timeline is a really good/ interesting point. Yet how does this fit in with rebellion dlc or the ops that happened during those other dlc releases?  I'm not saying this to counter your point, instead I'd like to know ur thoughts on the other events. I did notice that Hackett's memo was exponentially more engaging for overwatch Tho.  More importantly, that'd be waay lame if us ps3ers got shafted from the game experience the OP describes since Sony stonewalled the operations for months.  So the mp timeline couldn't play too big a role ( also consider the lack of players for mp, would only the people that visit these forums or play mp ever get the full experience bioware intended).

A response could be that bioware just needed time to get whatever(dlc, mp, pr) together and now the timeline is at the "story level". But you may have something better to say OP if i have I warranted a response...


May continue this post but great job OP and team.
