The real surprise is that the sun on Haestrom merely overloaded your shields rather than smearing the squad out over the Quarian ruins like you got hit by a cement truck. Warmachine posted:Never stop. I beg of you. Never. This and Bioware consistently shooting itself in the foot make this whole thing worth watching. When this whole thing started, I actually asked @masseffect on twitter if any of them go target shooting and if so, do they need to use pictures of their feet as targets. They never repsonded, bu I think the answer is an emphatic yes. Cthulu Carl fucked around with this message at Apr 9, 2012 around 01:00 |

There are certain detractors who, at this point, aren't going to be happy unless the DLC is just video of the entire writing team committing ritual suicide, and any criticism of the clarified ending is going to be met with the people who were against changing the ending going "see? They gave you exactly what you wanted and you still weren't happy. This is why gamers are literally Hitler." Not sure how I feel about a Clarification DLC, unless it's an explanation of what about the ending is so good that they feel the need to valiantly defend it against all reason.

Also Joker has implants in his fingers that give force-feedback when using the holographic displays. I hate that I know so much trivia about these games.

Also I think the answer for Glyph is  mass effect fields since he looks a lot like a combat drone.OatmealRaisin posted:Also Joker has implants in his fingers that give force-feedback when using the holographic displays.

Pity his girlfriend is a robot, a little hacking and he could be Kelly's best friend. ATP_Power posted:I assumed he was saying that as a figure of speech. Honestly, there's only one thing that really pisses me off about things holographic, in ME: How come the Normandy schematic disappears when I get to the Galaxy Map? They don't interfere with each other and that has to be annoying for the crew. "We're showing micrometeroid damage on armor plate Sulu-45-Alpha, right about he-" *BLOOP* "-re. Goddamnit...."

But... at the end of the Bible, doesn't Jesus lead the armies of the faithful on a holy asskicking spree and toss Satan into a lake of fire and victoriously usher in the new Kingdom of God? EDIT: And of course there's also a bunch of poo poo about what the Disciples did immediately following the Jesus's death and ressurection.

So is this confirmation that Shepard is literally Jesus and this was the second coming? The Reapers were Satan, and the universe now has 1000 years of peace? Or is Priestly being a facetious jackass? E:

Both, and the fact that he got Jesus and Keanu Reeves mixed up is just gravy. If Weekes gets any blowback from the internet postings, Priestly is gonna get the can too. It's one thing to be negligently helpful. It's another to publicly hostile.

Someone should probably tell Priestly that continuing to dig the hole deeper won't actually end with him emerging in some sort of happy wonderland on the other side of the planet where they actually like the ending.

So, did the kids ever call Joker "Mr. Glass"? Seriously, reading the Wikipedia article, OI seems to make you shorter than normal.

Hey, don't accuse the Chinese of liking this ending, you bigoted monster. Edit: I also thought Joker had some sort of made up space disease, if they actually based it on a real thing it all gets a lot more awkward and strange.
