To a couple of members not involved in the huge clusterfudge of a quote pyramid, all that nostalgic talk is making me miss the old BSN. I kinda miss all the stuff that used to be here like gmagnum and that Gambit guy's drunken threads. :(


You may have not frequented the DAII board but mangiraffedog was legendary.

Of course not, you're the other end of the extreme. You're just as bad as the polar opposite. It's like the pot calling the kettle black. Sycophants can be toxic too you know.



Save the lecture, and get off your self righteous high horse.  Be gone troll


I'm just pointing out your hypocrisy. If I hit the proverbial nail on the head, don't get angry at me. Take a look at yourself.



Of course a smug bastard like yourself would say something like that.  While being a hypocrite yourself, but your ego won't let you admit it,  But I am done talking with you.  Once again my enemies have derailed a thread.


You really don't know the meaning of hypocrisy do you? You just insulted me, so you proved that you are as bad as the people that fling insults at everyone else. My ego? You have enemies? Lol. You over estimate your importance.

 The best way to compare ME3's conundrum is to look at The Witcher 2. Both suffered similiar problems. Both had crappy endings & in both games fans were upset with it.
Bioware's solution :-
- No apology-Talk about artistic integrity  & ingenuity- A small expansion with some weird scenes & slide shows

CD Projekt Red's Solution:- 
-Apology-12 new different endings, not just colors-Free DLC-DRM removal-Free upgrade to version 2.0 with tutorial
& people don't understand why Bioware devs get so much hate for ME3.

Bottom line. RPGs like ME3 are more than just mere games. They are games you invest your time into. They become part of your life after some time. Just look at the amount of fan art, fan fiction, fan videos we have on ME. All players will end up highly associating themselves with characters like Shepard. With his/her squadmates. With other characters in the ME Universe.

& after all that immersion and investment and all you get it different shades of ending or in the case of EC, different shades with different voices that still include major plot holes like Starbrat, players end up disappointed, betrayed. 

& so the hate ...


I honestly think all this could be fixed if Bioware :-

-Issues a formal apology
-Gives us an option to win the conventional way 
-Allowed players to actually save Thane 
-Give us an option to give the finger to Starbrat & win, not lose
-Show us the blue babies / home on Rannoch / 


The majority would be very contented with that


Hell, look at Fallout 3. Gamers yell BS at the ending because there were issues with it. What does Bethesda do? Release a rockin' DLC pack that actually fixes those issues and adds MORE awesome content. And they even made money out of it.

And its not like Bioware hasn't released dlc for free:  Retaliation, Rebellion, Earth, and Resurgence.


That's because of micro-transactions.




And yet I have not been forced to pay.  btw, how is paying for something that is random wrong?  The rarity of the good weapons and characters means it wouldn't work as a pay to win system.


While I just can´t understand why anyone would pay for something they can get in game anyway, either MP arenas are really cheap or I doubt EA would allow BW to release it free. EC was because otherwise ME was utterly dead. It really seemed like the most successful torch & run I´ve ever seen.

Yet the "little boy" comment was justified?  Typical of you and your ilk to ignore that part.  You can go to hell as well for that.

Nice sentiment, but in the end you will be be one with all the reports for harassment and vulgar language.

I think hes saying that if they did not have the micro transaction system in place your looking at 10 bucks a pop for those expansions. They didnt give those free out of the kindness of there heart, they make more money with MT, look at Team Fortress 2.


If that is true then I am all for microtransactions.  It doesn't hamper my experience by benefiting those with cash too much while at the same time allowing new content to be released for free.  But what is wrong with Bioware making money off of this?  They are a business, they make games to make money.  If they aren't making any money on the endeavor, I full expect them to stop supporting it.

Your a hypocrite for defending him while targeting me. While he has openly said he enjoys insulting the devs.

Actually, that's incorrect. I think you mean to say "You're a hypocrite for defending him while targeting me. "  Your is the possessive form of you, while you're is the contraction of you and are.

Seriously?  Grammar police?

It's not a fun job, but someone has to do it.  If no one polices our civilization's grammar, the Oxford Dictionary is just going to keep on adding bull**** words that have no right to exist like irregardless and flammable.  Ever since the day I learned that irregardless is now considered to be a real word, I have been devoted to the cause.


Grammar ****s need to be purged from the internet.  They are one of the most annoying forms of troll there is.

also....

they may consider it toxic because of a matter of standards.

what I mean by that is, Bioware has never been used to this overwhelming wave of criticism...remember the times if kotor? ME1/2? DAO? they knew the fans would point out the faults of the games but they would still be overall more than satisfied.....but not this time

indeed does anyone remember what the VERY FIRST line of defense was?

come on....who remembers? because that is very telling

Now you're a complete hypocrite.

Not only insulting people but you were derailing the thread too. If you had of just ignored it it wouldn't have blown up like that, also, the lack of ability to even trim the quote pyramid shows a heat of the moment rant/post on your part.

You are just as bad as the "haters" David Gaider spoke about. Think about that.



Well that is more direct than your normal passive agressive snipes at me but that doesn't change the fact that whatever you say to me has no credibility due to your already transparent biasness against me.


Lol. discredit criticism, by twisting it to make it appear as if it's from a biased source. You should be a politician!

Alot of cherry picking going on, focusing on the negative whilst ignoring all the constructive feedback...." Yes we are listening "...i remember that thread soon got removed.....people are not resentfull for ME3, it stems from the PR and there superiority complex whilst they screen questions at comic-cons, do an in-hand interview not answering the main questions we have.........it's little things like that we can look back on and endin a trilogy with an advertisement for dlc just smacks of greed and just fuels the resentment........i feel some bioware staff need thicker skins when posts on a forum bother them.

Ah, FO3. Probably most stupid ending before this one. Sad that considering how writing is far from Bethesda strong point they got their reaction right.

Yeah, there's a reason why I hardly ever post in the ME and DA boards anymore, I just stick to Off Topic now. And while not necessarily a shining beacon itself, it's much, MUCH better behaved than these sections of BSN usually have been. This place ain't like it used to be. All this negativity just isn't healthy for a person.

Posting insults on an internet forum is not an accomplishment.  But you are just a narcossitic sociopath that thinks to highly of himself to see outside of himself.

Nothing is wrong with it. It's not them being good however just a result of their buisness model.

I don't have to twist it.  It is a biased source with an agenda against me.
