Weekend Confirmed 105 - Journey, Mists of Pandaria, Mass Effect 3
by Garnett Lee, Mar 23, 2012 11:00am PDTAfter a long look at Mass Effect 3 last week, Jeff, Jeff, Andrea, and Garnett turn their attentions to Journey, the upcoming Mists of Pandaria expansion for World of Warcraft, and other games. However, they cannot ignore the interesting turn the controversy over the ending of Mass Effect 3 took with BioWare co-founder Dr. Ray Muzyka directly addressing fans to promise them "clarity" and "closure" through new content the team will create. We also catch up on the announcement of an Epic Mickey sequel along the way to wrapping up with Finishing Moves.

I think Bioware themselves addressed their critics far more appropriately, as fans and customers who have expressed both their dissatisfaction with part of a purchased product, as well as possible willingness to pay for more content.

And the point about ME canon that you miss is that there are 3 different endings as is. So there is no canonical ending, and any of the things that those 3 endings have in common are incidental, and completely subject to alteration.
There is only a core thrust to the game in so far as Bioware can't compensate for every choice the gamer might make, and making a game with loads of totally different paths is a logistically impossible. Does that mean that Bioware wouldn't make strong differentiated plot lines if they could? Nope.
