I'll take the fact that they're shutting us down as an official "YES".

 

To be fair though, when the negativity is overwhelming as it often is here, it becomes the norm and we feed into each other with negativity and even if most people try to be rational about it, BioWare is probably right to some extent to let this go. I genuinely wonder how bad the ME3 controversy would've been if not for this place to blow it more out of proportion than it already was. People have seen terrible endings before, but only a dedicate forum like this would get these thesis like writeups and documentations of it.

 

It's the same with Witcher 3 except that board isn't quite as popular due to when it was formed. Most people loved that game universally and barely anyone noticed the quality of the storytelling falls off a cliff in the finale when you look at impressions anywhere but a few select comments or articles but especially the CDPR board had strong support for the "How to fix the third act" topics.

 

I do wonder what it'll be like if ME:A turns out to be bad though, now that there will be no BSN to stir up the pot.

 

Gaming media sites and EA/Bioware's response aggravated this issue. They both demonized the fans, lumped them all together. Even Dr Ray's response to the ridiculous ME3 ending was a back-handed slap. Turns out, none of this worked them.

If they are, the feeling is definitely mutual now.

So basically they want to connect to their fans by closing their means of connecting to their fans.. is the catalyst in charge of this?

If the mods have abandoned us in these final days, can we say what we want now?

Not that it's ever stopped me. XD

I feel bad for the multiplayer guys here, they seemed to be really chummy in those threads.

Good riddance, really.

 

I feel like I may get banned for getting the joy from this. lol

 

Back when the developers were here, they were more reasonable and engage in reasons why you hand out warnings and bans, not so arbitrary like it is now. Hand out warnings for someone and then ignore a bunch of people who did the exact same thing.

Yeah, I can't exactly put my finger on it, but I have the tiniest suspicion that they are slightly, just slightly annoyed with us.

I know you are right, it's extreme to cancel it now. But they are being very odd about the game, and I can't ignore the feeling it's not nearly as done as they are telling us, that they will delay the game again, and then cancel it. Accept the losses and end BW. I don't know, could be just that BW/EA have been more shady than usual, because the game is a mess.

You're not the only person to feel this way.  Several streamers called it during the EA conference that MEA wasn't done.  I don't think they'll cancel it, it'll most likely get released.  Whether or not it'll be a finished product at release is another story.

I guess they don't even want to stick together for the kids' sake.
