Apparently Bioware thinks most people are completely ok with the ending so there is no reason to place any effort in bring back (non existing) disgruntled fans

The existance of EC says otherwise.

Some still are, some are less or more happy with EC. In any case, it obviously was an attempt to calm the core fans. Succesful or not is a different thing but you can't say they did nothing. There wouldn't be any EC in such case

there is do or not do...there is no try.

anyways, the argument is that, in their mind, everybody is happy....we will see once ME4 is announced exactly what the atmosphere is and how much they are trying to win people back

Yeah I'm sure they think that after getting tons of nerdrage tweets, colored cupkaes delivered to their HQs, BSN spammed with "HOLD THE LINEEEE!!!11" threads for months after release etc.

do I HAVE to quote Jessica?

[JonathonPR]

I am still annoyed with the direction they took the series after the First and True Mass Effect.



If Bioware ever makes a true sequel the First and True Mass Effect I shall refer to it as the Second and Righteous Mass Effect.

I eagerly await her quote that everybody is happy.

[Karlone123]

I'm over the poor execution of the endings, but still get annoyed at the Catalyst meeting.

remember it is all about the math and we are not the majority we thought according to the secret spreadsheets

[sH0tgUn jUliA]

No. We are not the majority. Anyone who played the game more than one time or who didn't rage quit when they saw Starbrat was satisfied with the ending.

Mass Effect 4 final boss: equine-Reaper larva

<Cue movie announcer guy>  In a world where you thought they were Marely Foaling aRoan, it came.  You thought Shepard had saved the galaxy, but it Must Stang when you face...the EQUINE REAPER LARVA.  It has come to Stirrup trouble, and it won't take Neigh for an answer.  Try to Rein it in as you might, you shall be Saddled with an adventure the likes of which has never been seen.   The Equine Reaper Larva.  You'll scream your self Horse.  So pick up a Pinto yer favorite lager and sit back for....EQUINE REAPER LARVA! (ba dada DUM!)  It's a Ride you Canter escape!

Sounds like a job for Blasto.

I heard an unsubstantiated rumor (because I just made it up) that the ME movie is going to be animated, and starring Blasto the Jellyfish as Shepard, an Elcor as Garrus, a Vorcha as Miranda (with sexy outfit), a quarian as Liara, and a volus as Tali.  Though that last bit might be typecasting...they both live in suits after all.

Julia's hit the nail on the head.  Disgruntled people think they're in the majority because they're the loudest.  Being loud doesn't make you the majority.  Heck, the 'Take Back' petition got what...40K signatures?  That may sound like alot,  until you remember they sold 890K copies of ME3 on the first day.  Just from first day sales, 40K is a drop in the bucket. 

Most people probably were ok with the game; there are still people here who were OK with the ending (myself, for one), and some who actually LIKED the ending.  Although the 'haters' try to shout us down and claim we don't exist, we do.  We may be the minority HERE (because ya'll shouted so many out ) but not out there in the real world.

Is it just me, or is there another ending thread every 12 hours?v

You realize that "majority" and "minority" aren't just about people liking or disliking the endings, right?

[SpamBot2000]

It's not just you. And it bears repeating until BioWare acknowledge that message. And not just "Oh, the players are sad cuz it ended" or "Dumb players did no get mah ART!"

Poke dead horses all you want, you'll still never get them to live, eat, trott, or drink again. A year and a half of poking should have showed us that. Guess not.

Heh.  Heheh.  They DID acknowledge the message.  But ya'll ignored them.  The ONLY way ya'll will relent in your criticism is if they go back and redo the endings to your specifications.  BUT...since so many of ya'll have different ideas of how it SHOULD end...they'll STILL ****** off people.  Sure, maybe YOU will be ok with it because they rewrote the entire game to fit what YOU want, but other people will hate it.

The bottom line is you can not make everyone happy.  EVER.  Your problem is they didn't make YOU happy and you think they should, no matter how many other people they make mad.  That's the problem that ALL 'haters' have it seems.  

I'm reminded of a quote I saw from another game publisher, forgot his name.  But on a forum someone was accusing him of ignoring the players (because, of course, every player agreed with that forum warrior, duh.).  The guy's responce was, "I'm not ignoring you, I'm disagring with you."  So many players mistake disagreement with being ignored...as if the ONLY way a company can acknowledge their concerns is by rewriting the entire game to fit  their expectations.  I think the bigwigs DO listen.  They just don't necessarily agree with many of the complaints.  And since THEY know how many units they've sold, and since THEY know how many people log on to play their games, and how often...well, I think THEY might have a bit better understanding then some anonymous gun on teh intrawebz whose venting his frustration.  Call me crazy.

[SpamBot2000]

And when exactly did they acknowledge that "Many players were dissatisfied with the ending because they felt it was the completion of the Reapers' mission instead of Shepard's mission, and thus an inescapable loss", for example?

They acknowledged that there were players who were upset; multiple times. Never said they acknowledged your personal pet peeve. Didn't even insinuate that they had. It's nice that you think you're so important and influential that multi-billion dollar companies MUST cater to you and you alone...but, and I'm sorry to break this to you...your mommy lied. You just ain't that special.

Since I never finished ME3 pre-EC (heard about how dreadful it was and just shelved it for a good year), can anyone explain just what this DLC improved...?
All of the endings still seem pretty awful, it's either:

a) Destroy the Reapers and die along with EDI and every other synthetic in the galaxy (with a tiny chance the N7 marine taking a breath at the end is Shepard).

Jump into the Lifestr... errr, beam of light and turn everyone into a synthetic/organic hybrid by getting your ass disintegrated.

c) Take control of the Reapers, you still get your ass disintegrated but at least your mind becomes the Reaper Overlord.

d) Tell the brat to get stuffed and watch everyone get annihilated by the Reapers.

What did they change there? Except going into more detail possibly? And adding the old man/woman at the end telling the kid the legends of "The Shepard"?

It's pretty obviously Shepard. There's not a single reason why the devs would add in this anonymous person taking a breath, because there's absolutely no reason for any of the players to care.
