"I didn't want the game to be forgettable," Hudson told Digital Trends.
"Even right down to the sort of polarising reaction that the ends have
had with people - debating what the endings mean and what's going to
happen next, and what situation are the characters left in."

"That to me is part of what's exciting about this story. There has
always been a little bit of mystery there and a little bit of
interpretation, and it's a story that people can talk about after the
fact."

More single-player content is coming however, and Hudson said that, like
other Mass Effect DLC, fan feedback will help shape its design.


But Hudson failed to suggest that the trilogy's finale may be changed
through a patch or DLC, as Retake Mass Effect campaigners hope.

is this why it was so open & felt like it was a dream? It seems they were planning an ending dlc before the release

IT certainly was polarising.

[AlanC9]

Polarizing sounds more like a side-effect than a goal, but not one he has a problem with.

[N7PT]

Talking after crapping in the whole trilogy is easy. To the OP: you didn't need to change "polarizing" to "polarising" in the topic's title. Both are considered correct, I just use the British English version, while polarizing is used in 'Murica and Canada.

[GreyLycanTrope]

Isn't this old news?

[SDW]

Yep, they were planning more DLC - stuff like Omega. Just like ME 2 had its Shadow Broker, Kasumi, Zaeed, Overlord etc.

[BaladasDemnevanni]

Not sure if polarizing should be a goal, ever.

I love your view point of the situation.

Having said that, I think casey Hudson said what he said before ME3 came out and all he backlash happened. In a way it's very sad that he felt that a proper ending wasn't good enough for the trilogy and that he felt that he had to get all controverial in order for anyone to remember the series.

Hudson's gotten a lot of undeserved heat. Whether you liked the ending to ME3 or not, the trilogy wouldn't be what it is without him. It's a lot like the George Lucas situation. "LUCAS RUINED STAR WARS!" Yeah, he also created it. So STFU.

People are too quick to knock others down.

Strongly disagree with this as it applies to fiction.

However, after experiencing the comments on this board over the past year and a half, I do think that it might not be a good idea to aim for "polarizing" in a video game, even under ideal, perfectly-executed circumstances. Especially one with elements of power and persuasion fetishism.

Definitely takes "no such thing as bad press" to it's logical extreme

[Mr.House]

LoU and Infinite where able to get the players talking without having a ending that was bs. Just saying Casey.

[ShepnTali]

There are great games that get people talking because they are great games. Now there's a nice goal.

Depends on who you talk to about Infinite.

So without Casey, the ME trilogy would not be a inconsistant mess that is not even a trilogy with one of the worst endings possible for a story that insults the IQ of it's player?

Also Lucas did create SW, you do know many of the things people loved about 4,5 and 6 where not even created by Lucas right? It was all peer review as lucas did not have laot of freedom in 4,5 and 6. He did have freedom in ep 1,2 and 3. It shows. Casey might have created ME but he destroyed it because he wanted people to talk.

Let's be perfectly blunt... ME was not particularly memorable.  In was, in fact, a fairly generic space opera.  Had it ended in a perfectly "normal" fashion, it WOULD have been forgotten pretty quickly.

Now, with that said, the PROPER solution to that is to actually compose a memorable story, not resort to the M. Night Sham-a-layman "twist" that you stole pretty much verbatim from someone else.

If you're so negative towards the series gtfo the forums and move on with your life. Focus on the things that make you happy. Talk about self-entitlement.
