Mass Effect 3 Extended Cut?
Well it came out yesterday and I've seen the "new" endings and....well....I really didnt see the point of them changing it in the first place.
I mean why did they change it due to fan pressure?
Sigh.....fans dictating what should and shouldn't be in a game, there is a point where fans need to back down I feel and let the game designers do what they are paid to do. Now in some cases games designers need a good kick up the bum and need to be reminded how great games really are.
Remember the 90's when devs really did love games and that love shined through in games like Mario Sonic Earthworm Jim to name but a few. And then something happened devs lost that love and the generic videogame was born. Fans had their input and it was welcome but there has to be a line drawn.
A story is just that its told its retold but ultimately it never deviates to far from the original vision. In the case of bioware we MUST understand that it is THEIR story not ours. They created it, they wrote it they envisioned it.
So who are we to dictate otherwise? A story can have a good ending or a bad one but the journey on the way to that ending is always magical and sometimes even better than the ending. For instance whats more appealing the decline of the roman empire or the empire itself?
Hope you enjoyed the read I certainly enjoyed writing it :P But for now this is the dragon leaving you with a link to my latest vid so you can have your own opinion on it
