User blog comment:Crazywarfire/Indoctrination Theory is BS/@comment-2250460-20120616204016/@comment-118213-20120618225039

This blog is a fantastic example of a critic of the Indoctrination Theory who fails to convince anyone of it's folly. I believe that more than just talking about it's flaws (which are usually easily countered), you have to fully understand why so many people believe[d] it. For many, myself included, it was down to the complete disbelief that the ending we got was planned and real. The Indoctrination Theory offered a plausible explanation and fix for the ending, especially at a time where there were (false) rumours of a new DLC called 'the Truth' flying around.

As a consumer, I wouldn't be much happier with a new ending (such as the IT) than I am about the extended cut.
