Not my argument. I'll admit I'm off topic. There are some people on this thread though that aren't like you mega. They're trying to make 30% hating the ending seem negligible, and totally ignoring that the 34% that just thought they were okay also were not entirely satisfied. I don't think they should refocus their entire dlc schedule. However, I think it's reasonable to assume that if there were a dlc that was actually just an addition to the game, not like Leviathan which should have been there to begin with, they could postpone or cancel it in favor of an ending dlc that would probably sell to at least 64% of the fanbase.MegaSovereign wrote...
I know, but he was making it seem as if 70% liked the ending and Bioware did a fantastic job because of that. Whether an ending dlc would sell I can't say based on that data. I can say I would pay a full game's worth for an ending that is on the level of mass effect 2's suicide mission. I can't say that the majority hate the ending, but too many people do.
So why should they refocus their DLC schedule to pacify those that didn't like it, even if they necessarily aren't the majority?
Even besides this, if its premium DLC then surely this would backfire even more. Wouldn't it?
It's fair for you to say that those people who just thought the ending was okay may not buy the ending dlc. For that matter, the case could be made that people who hated the ending may not buy the dlc. However, it's just as likely that those people are so disappointed with the ending that they won't buy any dlc no matter where it's centered.
I sympathize with the OP.
I mostly got what I wanted with the EC, so I'm not talking about Mass Effect.
I too use to rage on internet forums over my former favorite franchise, Gears of War. When Gears 2 released I wasted hours ranting on Epic Games' official forums about its connection issues and game balance problems. Ultimately I got tired of it and left the forums and stopped playing their broken game.
A couple months later they started releasing a series of patches to address those problems. Was it my rants on their forums that finally got to them? Probably not. It's because the game's sales were slow and the MP community was dying.
Moral of the story: Capitalism always wins. The majority will get what it wants. Making pleas to try to emotionally manipulate the situation won't get to Bioware.
