good. i just dont want to wait two or three months for it. If its just cut scenes, then why would it take that long anyway?

I think their lying, yet again. I don't believe for a moment that the slap-dash dialog with what appears to be Christian proselytizing was part of any prior "artistic vision for the end of this story arc" by a team.

There's as much evidence against this as there is for supernatural beings with magic powers who intervene in reality if one telepathically prays to them.

All I know is, that when I saw the ending, it was painfully obvious it was incomplete, like they had some twist they didn't implement. When I saw the Indoctrination Theory video on youtube, it emphasized this feeling even more, and I think that EA must have intervened and made them release it too early for the end to be complete, and it seems the devs of BioWare have given into EA's greed. Personally, I hope they ARE lying, and that they will create an Indoctrination Theory ending, as this "artistic integrity" BS is, to me, not something that should be applied to games, which are marketed products that must be good, otherwise consumers will not buy more products from the creators. With the immense number of fan complaints, including my own, it is clear this is an incomplete, faulty product. Thus, they should FIX the problem, rather than fall back on this "artistic integrity" argument which has no meaning here, just to save money by not creating the real ending. This, in the long run, will instead alienating fans, which could very well cost them millions which they could have avoided losing by not being greedy.

And if this Extended Cut is just some extra cutscenes that do not explain why there were so many plotholes and unexplained occurrences (Look up the Indoctrination theory I mentioned on youtube, it's a 20 or so minute long video that points out several of these strange occurrences), then I, personally, am writing off BioWare as a formerly excellent company that has given into greed, and they are not getting one cent more of my money in any future products they release. After all, "artistic integrity" won't help keep your company alive if you don't get any money for your creations. A fact which BioWare and especially EA seem to be carefully ignoring.

I found this apparent enough when there was a Zero day DLC. Everyones doing this crap to more than double their money over what we used to spend 2 or 3 years ago. Its become the mainstream, and its only gonna get worse :-/. MW3s DLCs cost more than the original game. Thats a problem. Not to mention the one-time online pass crap, which I hadnt even seen before until ME and Deadspace. IMO, Its no longer fun satisfying for the people who used to play these types of games 5-10 years ago. now its all geared towards the younger "i dont care what i spend" crowd, and i have easily fallen wayside amongst the crap.
