What The Hell Happened Here?

[Catfood220]

I've found it all very amusing how upset how people have gotten about it all. And they've gotten upset about the wrong thing. What do I mean?

I mean, THEY FUCKING KILLED KELLY CHAMBERS!!! FUCK YOU BIOWARE AND FUCK YOU EA FOR ALLOWING THEM TO GET AWAY WITH IT!!! She was flirty and looked after my fish, MY FISH, when I was away on missions and more recently, in jail AND THEY JUST KILLED HER IN COLD BLOOD, YOU UTTER BASTARDS!!!

For this, I'm boycotting Dragon Age 3 (not that it makes much difference as I wasn't buying it anyway) and encourage everyone to do the same until you have learnt your lesson, now go sit in the corner and think about what you have done.

(Additional: Please no one quote me to tell me that she actually lives I'd rather find out myself).

Why would you get upset about her being presumed dead if you don't actually know yourself??? D:

Well I'm kinda taking the word of the NPCs in the refugee camp who basically said that she confessed to Cerberus who she was and they shot her. Unless she managed to get someone else to pretend to be her, I'm assuming she's dead.

Well then I will keep my lips sealed on this matter. Try something different on your next playthrough's all I can say.

Just a fucking FYI about this mysterious individual. I don't think he's trying to troll anyone. I don't think he's trying to polarize the forums. I most definitely don't think he's trying incite this mass fanboy hysteria I keep seeing. It just happens, regardless of his actions. He present his opinions bluntly and that causes controversy. That is hardly his fault, now is it? He enjoys the resulting debate and keeps it(atleast recently) semi civil. This ridiculous notion that he is somehow the forum's boogyman has got to go. He is not that bad. He's been known to compromise at times.



Stop making it seem like I'm harassing this forum.

You ruined the mystique at the very end! Might as well have posted a photo-shopped stock picture of yourself. XP

And since the majority of people here disagree with you, well, you should be smart enough to see what that entails.

Actually, the majority of people here will disagree with his methods, not him necessarily. I know I do. A case of "There's nothing worse than bad arguments and badly executed support for something I agree with" and all.

People on internet forums are obsessive.

Wow, a week of overabundance of Mass Effect threads has built up to this amazing moment. Thank you Forlong, that picture and its use were hilarious.

I can only imagine how bad BSN is. It most be like world war 3 over there.

It has been surprising civil recently all things considered, though that probably changes by the hour. That forum is moving x100 faster than this one at the moment.

I laughed heartily at this picture, though I pondered the idea that it would probably make Dalamar 'Captain Obvious' as a lower rank to Master.

On topic: People get overly passionate on the internet because they feel that if their arguement is disturbed that it invalidated themselves as individuals and gives them that 'I've lost' feeling. People ought to focus more on 'discussion' than 'arguing'

Captcha: best seller, damn right it was.

Maybe I'm just not looking in the right (wrong?) forums, but I haven't seen much of a division here. Many, MANY occasions of peope talking past each other, but no real division. Plenty of threads saying that having high expectations is not the same as being entitled, but very people people actually calling others entitled. Plenty of people saying that ME3 is terrible and that people should stop encouraging low standards by saying it had a satisfying ending, but very few people actually saying they found the ending satisfying. Most disturbingly, penty of times one person's said somethign like, "well, that was boring I certainly didn't enjoy that," and somebody else has jumped on them for not hating the game and everyone who had the slightest hand in developing it. Both of these people thought the ending was poor, why not team up to do something about it rather than turning that dissapointment and anger onto each other?

Mostly people have seen that one guy who didn't enjoy the ending and started a lawsuit against Bioware (a lawsuit which, may I remind you, takes a stated fact of 'this specific thing WIL NOT HAPPEN' from the marketing marterial and points at the moment that thing does happen in the game. I'm not saying the lawsuit's the first solution, but it's not entirely without merit) and assumed that everone who doesn't like the ending is this extreme.

The only direct cause/effect I've seen is people picking on Zeel because (s)he dares to voice an opinion without screaming "Disclaimer! Discalimer! Only my opinion you can't tell me I'm wrong! Don't hit me!" after it (a practice which seems to warrent the death penalty around here, but that's a topic for another thread). On the other hand this did spawn the, "Brace yourself, Zeel is comming," picture so hey, I got a laugh out of it.

Incidentally, I hope everyone here's aware of the massive double standard in this forum: why is it entirely fair to mercilesly rip apart Twilight's story, yet nobody can critisise Mass Effect's story? Because here's food for thought: purely objectivly, Twilight is better. There are very few plot holes (admitedly a few fairly cheap expination to stop them, but the explinations are at least there), most character development neccesary for the final scene occurs two entire BOOKS before it and wasn't just inserted in after the author wrote the scene but needed something put in earlier to avoid sudden reveals, and you get a chapter at the end that gives some closure for each character. Neither are perfect, no way am I arguing that, but only one of them follows the rules that high-school creative writing students are taught.

I'm sure it will calm down in the next few weeks. That ending has stirred emotions up but people will move on, whether Bioware changes the ending or not. I haven't really posted much in the last few days but from what I've seen, the same arguments are being held over and over again and sometimes in a pretty hostile manner. So I don't see much reason to participate in those discussions.
I'm just waiting for this whole thing to quiet down.
