Well, I was chatting with Ashley, and this line from Invictus by Henley just popped up, and it reminded me so much of the endings:

"In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed."

Edit: In particular, the last line.

I'll probably pick it up some time next year when it's dropped in price.  Next year's Steam sales are going to be great. ^_^

Well the red triangle and the green Tetris piece has a total length of 13. In order to achieve that and keep the same "volume" size after swapping the red and green triangle you have to move the yellow Tetris piece over to the left 1 so the length is again 13 provided you count the hole otherwise the length is 12. Besides putting a 3 piece Tetris piece onto a 2 piece Tetris piece creates the hole.

You know, I'm thinking about that line from the Shepard VI. "I can predict what the real Commander Shepard would say with 7% accuracy (Or something like that)." And then that other line, "Except the Reapers. Have you seen the size of one of those things?" I wonder just how accurate that second line is. Maybe that 7% accuracy actually got it right. O_O

listen to yourself...you're indoctrinated!  Take a listen to the VI. Remember the codex. "View the Reapers with superstitious awe."  That's what the VI is doing. If the VI is truly representative of Shepard's personality matrix then Shepard too is indoctrinated. It's the designer's perspective of what Shepard sounds like.

Remember he say's "I don't really sound like that do I?"  In other words I'm not really viewing the reapers with superstitious awe am I?  I'm not indoctrinated. The VI is like a crude mirror.

That's exactly my point.  That VI may be funny, but it might just serve a bigger purpose than comic relief.

Also, I still don't get how people can say ME3 sucked. It was a great game, regardless of your opinion of the endings. I cried my eyes out so many times during the game that I'm surprised I didn't die of dehydration.

Edit: Note, I guess my continued state of not being dead comes from not playing it all at once. :P


No, I also teared up at least twice during ME3, which is more than in any of the other game. It's just that the ending, in spite of IT, just...makes it difficult to remember them as clearly as it was prior to the ending.

Dunno if it's because the ending's 'bad' or just like that on purpose. On the otherhand, the ending of AC3 wasn't that exhilarating either, but I'm not having as much trouble thinking back of all the good stuff, emotions and fun I had before that.

Maybe the ending is like that on purpose. But no matter what, IT helps keep the game in it's right place in my heart and mind.

ME3 isn't bad, it's just...different. Just like Tree Of Life -- if you've seen it -- it just needs a right point of view to 'get' it.

 Well it's finally done. Excuse my speculative madness due to being in the middle of a big ball of reapers. Beam run.  I educate you all on intentional use.

ME3 is currently only 0.6% behind Far Cry 3. Still has a chance for GOTY.

Vote!

I wish there were 100 of me, so I could vote for Far Cry 3 another 99 times.

I'm curious, did we ever actually figure out a possible location for the beam run?  I.E. Where it London it might actually take place?

Yeah, I did, too.  I still think, though, that, given the IT and the EC, the endings are at least tollerable enough to let ME3 take GOTY for everything it did right.

Huh, this is an interesting tweet from Chris: https://twitter.com/...858762760699904  

I know to take everything he says with a grain of salt, but it's still interesting.

The IT is theory and the EC is Extended Crap, things right? Like the lack of dialogue choices(i played some days ago the prologue and there were JUST 3 CHOICES and i counted that should have been at least 6-7) and the idtioc secondary quests(let's talk about Reaper/Prothean artifacts and the Crucible here on the Citadel, maybe on the Purgatory ok? or on the markets?), and there is more.....
My opinion

no I don't believe so. The beam run is too obscure to tell. We would have to consider the skyline or the prior scene at the missile battery to determine roughly where we are

The fetch quests were a bit annoying, but I think the rest of the side quests were fine.  And I personally really didn't mind the auto-dialogue.  It let the cutscenes have more action and drive in them.  And the IT is a THEORY.  You know, like how evolution by natural selection is a theory.  I.E. a hypothesis supported by a significant amount of evidence.  And the EC at least makes the endings not suck QUITE as much.  They aren't great, and I still don't like them, but I can live with them.
