 Everyone here has heard the saying 'nothing is what it seems'  . Certainly, in the case of my posts...many aggressive in tone but passionate above all ....critical on parts that let me down but genuinely hopeful that Bioware do show us with mass effect 4 that they can and do take on board fan concerns before mistakes are made (SUCH AS THE ENDING DEBACLE AND SHORTCUTS IN CAMPAIGN GAMEPLAY AND STILL REMAINING MAJOR GLITCHES THAT WRECK PIVOTAL MOMENTS IN DLC CONTENT- LIKE OMEGA).

But, if anything, believe it or not, to all those who read my range of posts- and there are many positive and praiseworthy despite the larger quantity of posts to which i been critical of Bioware and above all, as we all have EA- MY ultimate reason for being hard on EA and Bioware especially AFTER my first playthrough was cos as many of us did we wanted the BEST CONCLUSION TO THE TRILOGY YET!

We all knew the potential was there...that what we asked...we wanted to experience the conclusion of shepard journey how we envisioned it- all the precious 10's of hourse in multiples per trilogy, from mass effect 1 to mass effect 3 finale, we wanted bioware to deliver nothing but the best- so that we could amplify here on the forums heaping praise on bioware and the magnificent job they done- and i do heap praise. But the point is and i direct this to Bioware, that simply put...all those critical perhaps even those who went way too far to unjustified levels in hate mail to you guys etc, that those as hard on you if not harder than me wanted to be able to PRAISE YOU AND SHOW GRATITUDE MORE THAN THEY WERE ABLE TO to say 'every fan that played your mass effect masterpiece- which on balance it truly is will be rushing out without hesitation to get me4 on preorder'! 

But for all the anger and bitterness, critcisms that I and so many have shared we have shared it as we want and hope that Bioware learn from it...that they make a game on par as great as 3/4 of me3 and hundred percent of me2 and me1 (depsite the very annoying inventory system)- Bioware on behalf i truly hope of those of us who on balance and overall despite or criticisms we indeed thankyou deeply and graciously for delivering a one of a kind rpg science fiction gaming experience.

Through giving us a chief protagonist and character unlike any other and introducing us to worlds and charcters from different cultures for humans to encounter embodied in shepard across the galaxy, from biotic and tech powers to evolution of these to combos...the brandishing of firearms diverse, powerful and awesome through all 3 games the depth and conviction with which you created and ensured millions of fans the world over could relate to...and who were captivated by, from Wrex to Tali, to Liara, Garrus to even making ai based characters in EDI and LEGION lovable characters we care for to make us wish we could be on board the Normandy meeting them. Right through to the diversity of classes to use as Shepard from cloaking to spawning drones, hybrid classes and in your face frontline troops, biotic wizards and the like, diversity in skill trees and builds per class and above all the ability to make choices that define the manner in which the story and character reputation to others take shape.

What i strongly feel ultimately that most of us still sticking with bioware through thick and thin, is that this trilogy as a rpg in science fiction genre was endlessly inventive, bold and daring- who could forget the heroism of shepard saving the citadel from the geth and sovereign or Shepard miraculous survival from the stunning astonishing outset of being obliterated with a ship blowing up- at the start of me2 no less! through to the determination to get through the suicide mission and defeat the collectors....and then to finding the courage and humility and conviction to stand up direct to the core of the makers of the war in the Reapers...to (hopefully) defeat them. And of course a special mention to shepards former employer turned delusional warrior for humanity in the Illusive man and the cronies in Cerberus, And let not forget the charisma of distinguished iconic characters as shepards rivals- Saren, Sovereign, the REapers and at the forefront of it the most iconic arguably of all, Harbinger.

WE been rewarded greatly with incredible depth and breadth of DLC From the superb Bringing down the Sky through to unforgettable DLC Such as Overlord, Kasumi and especially the Shadow broker....through to character defining dlc like Zaeed assassins revenge to in me3 uncovering reaper origins- truly compelling and frightening- right through to taking back an entire station in OMEGA and now this final dlc which make things we hope go full circle.

We had countless smaller dlc packs..much we should be grateful for...extra weapon packs..appearance packs...and Bioware did all of that to increase the already very high level of replayability to give us a fresher angle of approaching such deep and insightful gameplay.

For us true fans there is no basis to ever endorse the original or extended cut even of the same ending that stirred up so much disappointment or passion..but we should not let that overshadow a game experience of a lifetime. And though my scepticism of EA is much more so overall than bioware i grateful and acknowledge that through the journey of Shepard's aim to stop the reapers to find away to do so...that where it really mattered most at least to me i hope some other fans here too. that it all added up to a truly unforgettable journey.

We and i feel niether of us should be too harsh on bioware they broke new ground with this game remember...never before has there been a game as rich and deep in storytelling, builds, character, vision and the like for this specific sci- fi genre. The game has as a trilogy immesurably raised the bar for these attributes and more esp for certain levels of story telling depth and intrigue and mystery in  much of the dlcfor all three games! We should not forget and i remind myself of this too that not even the great games in pc gaming history are flawless...all along since me3 feedback on the forums begun, I beared this fact in mind...for ultimately for me Shepard's journey is more memorable than the finale...and to be able to be put in the box seat to determine the course of the characters own journey effectively our own is the greatest gift off all and we should be grateful- while looking to the future with me4 we should hope for an even MORE flawless masterpiece than the flawed masterpiece but game changing one that the mass effect trilogy delivered.
 Thank you truly and sincerely to everyone at Bioware for such a trememndous effort and for mostly arguably for some where it mattered most at least for me for taking us on this journey and literally letting us occupy front of centre. Your trilogy is the game that got me in rpg for first time ever and for that i am indeed overall truly grateful.

Guys and girls, give your thanx to bioware if you feel they entitled to it i hope most of you do
