They were defiant in the face of fan complaints about the use of a stock photo: “We often use source art for many things within our game…we poured through thousands and thousands of pieces of source art we’ve done it throughout.” To prove his point, Weekes asked one of the Samara cosplayers to stand up. As our PAX East Day 1 photo gallery proves, she was the spitting image of Samara. This, as it turns out, is no coincidence — the cosplayer’s face was actually used as a model for Samara. Same goes for Liara, whose appearance was also based on a real person.
The faggot used Asari to defend lazy shops. Asari, by their very nature, resemble humans. At least ME1's art team added some tentacle shit to their head to make them look alien; they earned their fucking pay.
Why isn't the motherfucker who made this working for Bioware:

HHHHHHNNNNNG
WOW! If I was going to have a game, that's the artist I'd want with me in the character designing session.
But yeah, the Asari are meant to look human (or look like whatever race is perceiving them). This is just...
...Bioware is stupid.

The developers then addressed the indoctrination theory, which they said “illustrates how committed the fanbase is.” That was as far as they would go, however: “We don’t want to be prescriptive for how people interpret the ending, especially with the DLC coming out….we want the material to speak for itself.” Neither a confirmation nor a denial, then.
They say this with a smile on their face, but deep down they know the truth. They know that this conspiracy theory attributes brilliance that Mac Walters does not have. They know that the cycle will continue and they're next in line:

This made me laugh way too hard. Great pic.
Speaking of the DLC, here's that Angry Joe guy's interpretation of the news:
I like the bait and switch he pulls. Guess he doesn't just flow with the wind.
Too bad he never looked at the behind the scenes stuff and that article which all incriminates Bioware as being utterly incompetent and tone deaf to their fanbase.
HAVE FUN CLOSING DOWN, BIOWARE! We all know it's going to happen. EA will use them up until every last Biodrone gives in and leaves them behind (since everyone else has left by now), and then spit out the corpse.
Still though. Did Bioware follow EA standard production route.
Release a game when cocaine bucket runs empty.
Sounds like an interesting concept and a plausible one, but this really explains things better:
In the end, sometimes the Evil Alien isn't really manipulating the Brainwashed Prince.
In this case, the Prince is not brainwashed by the E A. He's just a dick.
...Meaning Bioware. Bioware's heads are just dicks.
resurgence pack is out today for free, (320 MP if you want classes unlocked right away). I wanna get my hands on the geth infiltrator. Going to name mine Legion, though the batarians look intersting too.
Also, after playing through the other ME2 again, I came across a conversation with Mordin (that I've completely forgotten about) that makes the Synthesis choice sound like the worst of the three possible ending.
I dont think Reaper enslavement and the Synthesis ending is the same because they sound like two different things. Reapers add tech to compensate for the failing functions that the enslaved race starts to lose due to the rapid indoctrination. Synthesis creates new life by somehow combining organics and synthetics but i dont think theres anyway anyone can predict the outcome of this because theres simply so much we dont know about it. Perhaps the extended cut will give some insight into it.

Reaper enslavement has nothing to do with what makes the Synthesis option a bad choice. It's the fact that it effectively ruins evolution throughout the galaxy. The Synthesis ending, would, as Mordin would put it, disrupt the "socio-technological balance". Since all life in the galaxy are now a organic-synthetic hybrid and have effectively reached an evolutionary dead-end, the possibility of the stagnation/destruction of their cultures is now extremely high. Mordin also mentions how raising a species to new limits before it is ready can be "disastrous", as he pointed out with the Krogan Uprising. Now think of that scenario, but on a GALACTIC scale, with every species in said galaxy (like the Yahg, for example).
Just makes me angry all over again how badly Bioware fucked the pooch.
Would've been better if towards the end it showed the image of that holographic kid from that shitty Resident Evil movie and then cut to a laser light show before going black.

If ending ended with a Shepards death BUT ending looked awesome AND made sence i wouldn't mind it. But Tali's picture with stock photo? That killed the game a little, but games ending fucked up the game entirely.

Besides i feel im forced to play Multiplayer.
Correct on all points, mate. Well said. Good trailer vid, by the way. Forgot to say that before. Really well done.
Basically, ME3 is a massive clusterfuck of, literally, epic proportions.
The only way management at EA won't dip Casy HACKson and anyone else in charge of this project in deep shit is if they were all literally sucking the heads of EA's dicks.
Don't worry, Mass Effect. You are being avenged.
You can rest in peace soon...
one of my friends told me Bioware is remaking the ending? I have a feeling this is a load of shit, is there anything to confirm or deny this?
Actually, Bioware only stated that they were expanding on the ending, not changing it. Which may be worse, depending on your viewpoint and how BW goes about it.

I'd definitly say its in order. ever since I beat the game I haven't touched it

Well, a lot of people are looking at it negatively, seeing it as Bioware chosing to just explain the terrible ending that they already have in the game, to provide "closure", instead of just entirely replacing it for a new ending that'd likely make much more sense.
