BioWare Gives All 400 ‘MASS EFFECT 3’ Protest Cupcakes To Charity
Some master-baker motherfuckers who were cheesed about the ending to Mass Effect 3 decided to voice their displeasure in the form of cupcakes. They did indeed send them yummy-yums to BioWare, who did the solid and donated them to charity.
Kotaku:
As promised, 400 cupcakes commissioned as a protest against the conclusion of the Mass Effect trilogy arrived at developer BioWare’s offices today.
They were not, however, gobbled up by BioWare employees.
Writing on the company’s forums, Chris Priestley says that while “we appreciate creative and thoughtful” acts of feedback, “we decided ultimately the reason that they were sent was not done in the context of celebrating the work or ccomplishment of the Mass Effect 3 team.”
As a result, instead of eating them all up, BioWare donated all 400 cupcakes to a local youth shelter. Where, presumably, after picking their colours and finishing their last bite, the kids were left wondering whether their choice had really been that important, and if somebody could please come in an explain what the hell just happened.
Pretty cool. Not as cool as it would have been if they gave us a decent ending, but hey. Baby steps towards retribution. Next up they should patch-in Kelly Chambers to reality so I can consummate the wonder-dreams that haunt me. These dreams involved Jennifer Lawrence, Kelly Chambers, said frosting, and a dimly lit room. Leave me alone. I’m concentrating.
