You.....you realize that most, if not almost all reviewers gave the game a near perfect score, right? Most didn't even mention the ending.

Metacritic is different and has its own system of scoring, not based just on other sites review scores, and has a "unique" algorythm to assigns scores in given area's. Its actually a pretty indepth argument atm in the gaming buisness sphere about how this very issue of metacritic scores tied to profits is hurting the industry as a whole.

It got 75 perfect scores!

Yeah I was rather upset with mass effect 3 wasted 5 years of my life all those mass effect 2 play throughs rendered useless by the ending and it is still useless even with the ec. Well NOPE I won't get upset again! I got over that! Thats why i came to the bethesda forums.

Ontopic:Well right now we just gotta wait nothing we can do now.

I think the big problem here is that people have been assuming the exclusivity window was 30 days. No one from Bethesda ever said this, advertised this, or confirmed this. This is just what anxious fans chose to assume. Now that their assumption is wrong, people are flipping out. When you assume something and it is wrong, you have no one to blame but yourself. You chose to believe a lie you told yourself so you could hope to play a video game sooner.

You raise an excellent point. Thanks.

We have a forum rule, about reposting a locked thread without talking to the moderator.

The tone and content of the posts by thread #7 was frequently rude, quite a few posts were breaking rules. So I locked it. As I am locking this one. People need to calm down about this. I get that you feel all Grrrr, I want the DLC, I want info. But you still have to abide by forum rules.

Everyone needs to take a step back, calm down, take a deep breath of perspective. And this discussion is taking a break. Don't start another thread for now.

Thanks.

Just to clarify something with an in-after-lock post, as several folks have PM'd me... we understand people are frustrated and sympathize, but this series of threads has gotten very ranty, there were some not-great posts, a lot of repetitive stuff and honestly, it got to the point where it was not remotely helpful and people were getting all worked up. I am not saying that the topic can't be discussed. Just saying that the topic is taking a break for a while.
