The arrogantly named “Retake Mass Effect” group has decided to offset the public bitching by raising some money for Child’s Play, which fans are now cynically using to deflect criticism. I know this because Destructoid’s tips line was spammed by emails from Mass Effect fans demanding we write about it for that very purpose.
Well … here you are. Here’s the story “proving” you’re not entitled, which you earned by sending us emails implying you were entitled to it.
The group — which was founded on the principle that Mass Effect 3‘s ending ruined an entire game series and undid all the fun everyone had — raised over $26,000 for Child’s Play in under 24 hours. It would’ve been more, but members were too busy seeking a public pat on the head for it.
So here’s your post, which you wanted to offset what one tipster called our, “bashing the Mass Effect community through one-sided, poorly researched articles.” Hopefully the undeniable positivity in this story will make you all feel better like the precious eggshell princes you are.
