One of several things that never made any sense... However, at that time I was just getting bored by the constantly increasing grind you had to go through to get there, so I didn't pay too much attention beyond breathing a sigh of relief that the grind had stopped. Edit: In hindsight, the green option was really the most ludicrous option, as it can't be rationalised in any way, no matter how generous your suspension of disbelief is.- Mass Effect 3
Thoughts? I think you are trying to re-align story elements that were never meant to be coherent. If I remember one of the recent interviews/quotes, they (Bioware) pretty much told that they made it up as they went along, game for game. May have something to do with their strategy of fan pleasing, always trying to change the next game according to current feedback. Woe to them if they change from that particular pattern, as the "fans" seems to have come to expect to be spoiled rotten- Mass Effect 3

Start of old thread End of old thread Just for fun, BBC's coverage Casey Hudson: "This is not the last you'll hear of [main character] Commander Shepard." Alfred Tennyson on the subject: "Gone - flitted away, Taken the stars from the night and the sun From the day! Gone, and a cloud in my heart."- Mass Effect 3

Their number would be insignificant to Bio/EA. I mean they made it so you couldn't get the best ending without playing MP. So obviously non-online players aren't important. I'm not saying the Indoctrination theory is correct, just that non-online people have little value to EA, since they can't milk them with DLC. I'm a bit curious, what is considered the "best" ending? In my game, I picked the green ending. I've never touched the multiplayer.- Future of the Dragon Age franchise
That would be like a midwife that had never given birth. It can't hurt as much as they say, right?- Future of the Dragon Age franchise
In other words' date=' EA figured the time and money spent on making an expansion is better used churning out the next full installment in record time. [/quote'] Record time would indicate that it's going to be released in the next month or so. With day 0 DLC Maybe they realised that data mining couldn't give them all the answers?- Are you overweight because you're simply tired?
The worst part about exercising is that it's mindnumbingly boring.- Mass Effect 3
Wouldn't they more likely be in the ship that best offered them situational awareness combined with survivability? In the days of sailing ships, it made sense to put an admiral in the middle of the line (for the overview and easy signalling to other ships) and give him a big ship to make him stay afloat for a while. It would make sense for a modern admiral (or general in a landwar) to stay out of the firing line while having access to as much sensor and communication equipment as possible. Big guns tends to draw enemy attention.- Good old Games

I was... My only "pet" is a 400 million year old fossilised trilobit in a display casing Well, that and a fat gecko living on the window glass next to my front door, catching insects there at night and an oversized, feral huntsman spider hiding under the dishwasher where I can't get to it.- Ouch, Bioware... Dragon Age 2, and now this?
I think it's a case of badly managed expectations. BG1 and BG2 were not really advertised as "all your choices r us" or something. I haven't followed the ME3 development nor read any of the ads, but jeebus it (the banners) was all over the internet on every website, including sites not related to video games at all. If those ads promised some kind of "your choices matter to us", then I can understand the outrage. Maybe ignorance really is bliss sometimes? Edit to add: As it was, I mostly got the game and played it to satisfy curiosity. The ending was poor, but not worthy of "nerd rage". Biggest disappointment was the feeling of linearity and the lack of party members from ME2 (some of which were infinitely more interesting than the ME1 ones imnsho).- Mass Effect 3

Entirely subjective of course, but in years to come I think ME2 is the one I might dust off on occasion, whereas ME3 will be archived and forgotten after my second playthrough. While individual combats in ME2 may have been more linear than a linear particle accellerator, ME3's entire plot is "railroaded", even if individual set piece combats are more varied.- Mass Effect 3
Just finished the game. Honestly, not sure what the fuzz is about My main beef with the ending is waaay too much grind. Same problem as with Kotor really (except it doesn't seem to be endless respawns here). My goody two shoes Shepard picked the green ending. Maybe it's now time for another Shepard to chose all renegade options. - Mass Effect 3
