Logic > Hope

I tried to tell them....

What a charming fellow 2.0

Now, where was that damn popcorn?

Certain "fans" are being "fun" they prefer the entire franchise to burn instead of being wrong. Ego stroking at their best. With fans like these who needs enemies.

Fans but on both sides had no evidence and were just speculating based on past things.

I agree, malanek. I had hoped for one token "goodwill" DLC, especially considering all the rest of BioWare's games since at least DAO and ME1 had DLCs (and that isn't considered "logic", I guess).

But apparently "hope" = "delusion" to some on these forums. Or that one cannot possibly be logical, but still hope for something at the same time - NOPE, you can only be one or the other, it seems. Which is really getting irritating and goddamn old.

This is me speaking as a user, not as a moderator.

I've got you buddy. You just need to lean on in...

Hope is fine as long as it has some grounding on reality. That was not the case for many around here. The people who held the tightest to delusional hope are the ones who are the most jaded (pouf, scepcis, croatsky, etc). Their comments pre- and post- announcement are distinct in tone. You're a mod, you saw the meltdowns. That's not coming from someone who's simply preparing for the worst while hoping for the best.

Is that just me, or did a lot suggest the possible existence as well?

It's not like the proof was strictly one-sided.

I'm fairly certain I didn't read anything about Andromeda or Bioware in the OP. I'm guessing you are talking about Republicans and Trump? This thread belongs in the Political Off-Topic subforum.

And people on the other side based their arguments on past actions from EA and Bioware. And considering that games joiranlism in general was shaky. We were suspicious about it. And ME: A is not a bomb.

Meh...to be fair there was some that was dismissing that Kotaku article.....but eh, i can understand the skepticism after that other fraudulent story about a company that was tasked to create DLC? I'm not familiar with Kotaku or this Jason gentleman some speak of, but if he was basically solid on other issues, then maybe he should not have been dismissed in the manner that he was.


Being that i really wasn't big on Andromeda anyway, this really didn't affect me either way,...but i thought at the very least the game was going to get 1 DLC in the Quarian Ark storyline....even when fans asked if folks was still working at Montreal or inquiring about DLC being created, there was cryptic responses which gave the impression that maybe the DLC was being created. 

I guess at the end of the day it was just the dev's that probably didn't know what the decision was going to be and was just as much in dark as everybody else and the fans....again tho looking at Andromeda, the game has high production values and has incredible visuals....just that story and characters are lacking a bit, the game wasn't bad or abysmal by any means.

"Don't you dare".

This is an emotional response. It is, highly, illogical.
