Identity and video games.

Dreamed about the Avengers last night.  That dream I remember none of.

Then I was a female draenei warlock in World of Warcraft -- only the world around me consisted of levels from Super Mario Brothers Wii.  Anyway, I kept abandoning my team (which was not the Avengers anymore, but still included Hawkeye) to explore a haunted brothel which had another draenei warlock trapped in it somewhere.

It was a very strange dream.

Mass Effect 3 reactions and amusements.

So I haven't finished playing the game myself.  In fact, I have only just begun.  However, I have already seen a lot of things about the game I found deserving of commentary, rebroadcast, discussion, and archival.  Here we go.  This covers the ending, a theory about teh ending, response to the response to the ending, and wacky hijinks.



1) A summary of many reactions to the ending.

2) A textual discussion of the problems with the ending.

3) A video explanation of the problems with the ending -- articulate, critical, on point.


4) A controversial theory that may make the ending make more sense.  But it probably isn't true or intended.


5) The Co-Founder of Bioware responds.

6) Mass Effect 3 to receive extended DLC, free.

7) Why the DLC won't fix the problems.
