I love how bioware sees all these comments not just here but on their own website and they continue to ignore it they only focus on the positive ones they have no desire to get better and that is sad

8 writers, 2 editors for me3 and still the worst ending of all time in a game. Well done bioware

Iterative process... except for the final wrap-up of a three-game trilogy. For that, it'll be a closed-room meeting transcribed on a napkin; Mac and Casey didn't want any of the other writers mucking it up.

2:12- 2:15 You now what is a great staring place for new players to jump in to the mass effect series, Mass Effect 1. Why the hell would new players start at the finale of the series. I know i didn't. i started with the first game even though my choices never mattered.

obviously.

are you retarded

[Garrus Vakarian]

As far as I'm aware, didn't Mac Walters write Garrus Vakarians character in ME1? He created one of the most loved characters essentially. I feel sorry for all the hate he gets. I understand some of it, but mostly I feel it's just fans finding an easy target to blame & / or jumping on the band wagon...

This interview really does explain exactly why Mass Effect 3 failed... And why DA3 will fail...

I used to love Bioware so much, I was the worse kind of Biodrone, why do you do this to me, Bioware?!
