There's intentions and then there's interpretations. I think since BioWare made an RPG that they are quite comfortable with the thought that their fans can interpret their game however they please.I_eat_unicorns wrote...
But if there's a
"truth" about the structure of a fictional work it is that that which the author intended is the actuality. ME's writers do not intend IT to be the valid end.
And how is being an IT supporter a "true fan spirit" of Bioware when it's a fan-made ending?
You can scream all you want that the people in this thread are not "true fans" because they aren't on board with your interpretation, that they live in some fantasy world where BioWare implicitly accepts their theory, but I'm telling you, there is no reason to waste the energy in trying to tell others what they should be thinking about a game and how they should be spending their free time.
I mean, I'm spending my free time writing this because you brought up the term "true fan," and I'm like "oh. 'true fan...' you're one of those people." I don't want to really derail the thread trying to describe what one of those people are, suffice to say, it's one of those people who seems to flip their **** at the rpg table because someone decides the party isn't taking the game seriously enough.
And those interpretations aren't true reflections of the author's intent. It is insulting to the author to believe in a fan-theory rather than the author's work. In fact, since mass effect is an rpg, IT is even more insulting as it renders player choice useless and makes the ending choices as a roulette system rather than appreciating the true work of Bioware and how they constructed the ec dlc to make player choices matter, as an rpg game should. I used the word "true-fan" in the terms of actually appreciating the author's work, not a fan-theory. It supporters believe in a fan-theory and the fact that after the ec dlc, they are waiting that Bioware makes some announcement that the IT is right is both insulting and doesn't make them "true-fans" in that they want their own ending, not the authors. Then some supporters who have the audacity to call people who don't believe in the IT as blind, that the ec dlc was made to quell the "large people" and that the IT is reserved for the "small true fans". Then they follow on the "evidence" of the theory but get so engrossed into this behavior that they can't understand the endings were not meant to be hallucinations. They were real.
