User blog comment:Garhdo/Extended Cut - opinions?/@comment-4740958-20120628033955

don't know if i'm double posting here, but you guys are just so passionate and write so much sometimes that i just don't have time to read it all, but i still wan to put in my 2 cents

the extended cut did exactly what its title implies, expanded the ending so many of us found confusing, and aside from mostly nit picky things, it cleared up and let us know why we were picking the choice we did and gave us the result of said choice.

and like i said, while the title implies what this DLC is meant for, it still leaves me disappointed hat it didnt address the bigger problem i personally had with the ending: the battle for earth. we still get no shots of all those forces we gathered through the game(s). no bloodpack, captain kirrahe, elcor cannons, or the pilots sent to us from the gay guy. which makes me ask why gather all these and present the assets in such a way that it makes anyone think "oh man i bet the battle for earth is gonna be INSANE with all these pieces coming together!!!"

but whatever, at least it scratches the itch 90% of us had with the game instead of maybe 50% which is where i lay. but im a team player so i'll live, i'll just imagine all those things happened!

the one thing that i can think of that extended didnt answer is what happened to the salarians. where they wiped out since they had no sort of support form other races? (well mostly wiped out, kirrahe had a battalion and im sure some of them followed him and some of them were female)

but whatever the case, i think 9/10 of us will agree that the ending is now better because of extended, and in my personal opinion, has turned form a horribly disappointing and confusing point in a great series to a satisfying, if a little low on action, conclusion to it. good job bioware for listening
