"Traditionally, the Poo has been delivered on its little red pillow. But this year, we'll give EA three different color options for its pillow, though in the end it's still the same old Poo.
lol
Thanks, saved me an hour
Beginning, not a word was mentioned.
Quite a bit was discussed about the ending, though they never explained it. They're well aware that people dislike the end. The extended cut, releasing this summer, is supposed to provide some clarification. While they aren't changing, or adding new endings, they are just expanding what's already there. They said it's supposed to be pretty substantial, providing a lot more personalization based on your in-game choices. They refused to comment on whether it was going to add more playable content, and they also refused to comment one way or the other regarding the indoctrination theory.
So take what you will from that. At least the extended cut will be free.
Thanks. Personally I think they're drawing up their plans right now. In my opinion it's clear the game (overall and the ending) were rushed. It's the last game of the trilogy and it had the shortest development cycle (even after delaying once). There are so many fundamental problems with that ending that the best they will probably do is pretty it up a bit.
Man, .
told ya
Just beat it and watched two of the endings. The game play was good aside from trying to get cover to work properly at times. I don't want to hate the endings but I really do think they are pretty weak. I hate that they tried to go all meta (I keep thinking back to Lost and while I LOVED that ending I think I understand now why people were upset about it) and wish they had just kept it ing straight forward.
The whole we were trying to save you bull was sooooooooooooooooooooooo ing bad. The fact that the ending hardly changes is SO god damn bad. I dunno, just can't help BUT be dissapointed about it. As has been pointed out, that is really going to piss all over replay value this game had.
BTW, I ended up killing Legion and all the Geth even though I didn't want that to happen but that didn't bother me too much because they actually got me to feel sad about that happening and I thought that was pretty cool. It was an actual hard decision to make and I liked that there were actual consequences to it.
Yeah you did. Oh well.
Also, EA for making MP have an effect on what should have always been a SP game. So god damn annoying.
What, you don't enjoy being forced to play a ty horde mode rip off in order to complete SP properly?
I knew the ing boy was trouble from the beginning, when they tried to force you to care about him (sorry, I couldn't). Then they forced you to dream about the little prick.
And yeah, the cover system is ed up. More complex than the other ME games, but not as polished as you'd see from say, Gears of War. You just end up latching on to random objects; it's 10X worse in MP.
The game overall was so uneven. Had moments of brillance (Tuchunka arc is one of the best in the trilogy; Rannoch), mixed in with mediocre parts (Intro, last mission on London, Thessia).
The worst parts of the god damn game were the "running" in the trees after the ghost boy. That was just dumb.
I think I buy that indoctrination angle. If BW is smart, they latch onto that with the DLC.
Oh yeah thats what we meant.
Also, the way some of the individual relationships finish up depends on 1 and 2 pretty heavily. The way ME3 definitely relies on that hugely.
It just sucks that the actual ending was so ing limited.Colorblind.
Yeah, I've heard rumors they played around with the Indoctrination angle early in development but it never made it inthe final product. but yeah, that obviously wasn't what they were going for in these currect endings.
ME1/2: You are beneath us. We're going to wipe all organics, muahaha!
ME3: Oh hey! They were my servants. We're actually trying to save you.
Fail.
I also wanted to punch my TV b/c of how re ed your character becomes in that last scene and your inability to control the dialogue.
"maybe"
"I...don't know"
"duh..OK"
for those that missed our convo in the other thread
Dlc comes out Tuesday
Get your LOLs ready.
Played one of the endings (destroy) and....meh. You can only polish a turd so much. The underlying concepts for the endings are still largely out of the blue and contradict previous games, but at least they provided more exposition on WTF they were going for.
The dialogue with the Catalyst has probably tripled in the EC (with dialogue wheel), even though they said they were only going to add epilogue/closure scenes. So they pretty much admitted they rushed it the first time.
Overall, meh. Some people might be satisfied if you set your bar low, but I never expected much unless they re-did the entire ending, tbh.
I played ME1 again, still fantastic, FAN- ING-TASTIC. remember the high hopes you had for the trilogy after ME1?
Don't remind meI played ME1 again, still fantastic, FAN- ING-TASTIC. remember the high hopes you had for the trilogy after ME1?. Unfortunately, they went with the "what's next?" approach of writing after ME1.
Watching one right now. So bad.
Holy these are terrible. Might as well have never tried at all. It would have been better that way. WOW I didn't think they could make it worse and they did.
