Nick - BioWare's past 'promises' mean zilch to us anymore. For example they told us that our choices mattered, and it wouldn't come down to 'A', 'B' or 'C'. And it did, literally, 'do you want a red explosion, a green explosion or a blue explosion.'

Besides, many opponents of RetakeME keep insisting that we were always told we wouldn't get a 'happy' ending, though none seem to be able to provide a source to that effect.
