I saw no demands, no asking for anything. Just an opinion. A spirited one, but an opinion nonetheless. Which, as happens all too often on the BSN, gets ripped apart and mocked.
And again, Chemiclord did describe it accurately:
If your opinion calls for a refusal to purchase all EA goods because one developer didn't give you exactly what you want, then you're not likely someone I'm interested in retaining as a customer. You're not interested in quality products, you're merely throwing tantrums like a child. Chemiclord is right: "Give me exactly what I want, everyone else be damned".
2 Favoring any kind of sequel, by its very definition is saying "The hell with everyone else" since someone's gonna get screwed. If a sequel doesn't allow for MEHEM, I get screwed. If IT doesn't play out, Twilight God gets screwed. If Synthesis isn't allowed, Iledra gets screwed. If Shepard died on the Citadel, everyone who favored High EMS Destroy is screwed.
Favoring any kind of sequel /= requiring a single type of sequel.
And a highly specific kind of sequel at that. You see, it's not enough if Bioware sets the game so far in the future that what's going on isn't relevant to what any of us picked (which is a possibility). Apparently they can't even do an alternate timeline.
You said it yourself: your sequel and Lledra's sequel needs to be allowed, not actively endorsed. Twilightgod is not simply interested in his scenario as a possibility. It's not enough even that Bioware take Destroy, they have to verify a minor aspect of Destroy. Bioware has to confirm Leviathan happened, they have to confirm Shepard is alive (and give him a role in the narrative), they have to make sure everyone knows that Control/Synthesis were mere jokes, All this requires a very limited timeframe and requires extensive resources to deal with more issues over the save import and people complaining about Shepard acting inconsistently.
Basically, if that's what he needs to happen, fine. But then I hope dearly Bioware cuts him lose because his stance is problematic for any Bioware sequel, not just those with crappy endings. We need to continue Revan's story. Alistair needs to be confirmed king. Bioware has to acknowledge that sparing the Collector Base is stupid.
He's essentially asking for all those things for one person. And they all require substantial resources to bust out. He's an unpleasable fan, essentially. That is far in excess of what either you outlined for yourself or for lledra. When you demand that Shepard be involved in ME4, then we can talk about you being on his level. At this point, I'm just curious how someone like him manages to enjoy sequels period, since they apparently need to be tailor made to his liking.
3 Sounds like he's about done with Bioware anyway. Can't say I blame him either. The endings are terrible to him, to me, and to many others. If Bioware continues to pretend this isn't a problem, why stick around? Why throw good money after bad?
Then he should leave. If he doesn't think there's anything good which can be done, there's no point in being here, short of enjoyable debate. Because Bioware likely isn't going to take his stance seriously anytime soon. Hell, demanding Shepard be an npc alone puts him in the loony crew.
