The "Clarity" Compromise

So in light of the new press announcement released by Bioware today I realize many Retake Mass Effect supports maybe disappointed and angry.  We know exactly where Bioware stands now (at least at this point) and it seems they have decided not to change the ending, but instead provide more clarity.  This is cause for unrest for many Retakers but I STRONGLY encourage you to remain civil and polite when addressing anyone involved with  Bioware or EA.  This is a trilogy you love after all and while this isn't exactly what you asked for make no mistake it is a victory.  RetakeME3 has went from nothing to something in only a month and for those of you not satisfied with this announcement I suggest taking a wait and see kind of stance, if not until the content is released at least until PAX is over and they elaborate a little more.  The content is free after all and if you truly are so passionate about this cause don't buy any DLC from EA or Bioware until after your satisfied.  For corporations such as EA money often speaks louder than words.  I for one have resigned to stay cautiously optimistic, but from what I've seen from twitter lately a lot of developers seem to be hinting at the fact that your choices will matter more and that it is indeed possible for Shepard to live "happily after all" and honestly if they address the choice issue they'll have solved at least 1/2 of the problem. 

Until we see exactly how this all unfolds, stay strong Retakers and above all else stay civil.
