FEELINGS.

[shadesofmauve]

So ME3 fandom is basically like this:



...and the game isn't out yet.

I already knew I'd be dissappointed in one respect, and now I'm a bit concerned about others, as well. Luckily the game play is going to be awesome, regardless of all else, and I'm sure there'll be wonderful banter and great writing along the way, regardless of whether I like where it actually goes.

Ready for the damn thing to drop, though, so the speculation can end.

The entirety of your post made me LOL. THAT MACRO IS BRILLIANT. XD

Also, your Mood. PERFECT.

Luckily the game play is going to be awesome, regardless of all else, and I'm sure there'll be wonderful banter and great writing along the way, regardless of whether I like where it actually goes.

Reading this, it just became crystal clear to me that all this may in fact make up for the ending, if it's as bad as everyone says.

Because despite all of DA2s flaws (and good lord, there are many), not the least of which is that most of Act III is shite and they botched the ending in many respects, I continue to go back to it repeatedly because I love so much of the stuff they put into it in Acts I and II and the characters which I love so much.

If ME3 parallels that at all, I probably won't care how terrible the end is. (ETA): No, that's not true. I'll care. A lot. But I'll replay it anyway because the positives of the earlier stuff > the disappointment.

Ready for the damn thing to drop, though, so the speculation can end.

This, this, 10,000 times this.

The thing that Gets to me more than the spoilers right now is that so many of them have been based on half-formed scripts and speculation.

The nerdrage may very well be justified, but let's base it on the finalized game that everyone has access to and can form first-hand opinions, instead of spewing around conclusions based on second-hand hearsay.

Still holding out hope for a) still pieces missing from the puzzle and/or b) a massive troll job.

I agree on the writing and gameplay will make up for it. Part of me still holds out hope there's an "perfect" ending we don't know about, but . . . yeah I just want the game out so I can get rid of this anxious feeling.

While I'm glad others can do this (really!), I'm not one of them. If it's great writing up until the end, or if the ending is complete and utter horseshit, then it spoils the enjoyment of the whole for me.

Though your gif did make me chuckle. Even though I'm one of those wialing about my glass case. ;-)

ME3 fandom may be like that but I'm basically like this:



XD

I have faith it will be an awesome experience.

I'm hella pissed off about some parts and really, really worried about others... but I just gave in and preordered the damn thing anyway. I am a slave to Bioware. /sob

I'm just going to focus on the banter and the parts that don't make me want to sob into pillows. That is all any of us can do!
