After that New Zealand sovereignty fail, that was the arrest of Kim Dotcom by some sort of S.W.A.T., supported by a helicopter, mp3Police wants more.
Fileserve, and even Wupload (which didn’t shit itself then), already shat themselves, and joined the ranks of: “We are a storage only. You can only download your own files.” filehosts.
But maybe because of this, people will go back to non-profit filesharing, like it was “back in the days”.

So I finished it, and I don’t get all the outrage for the ending.
Did it piss on game fans, players ? Yes it did.
Was it a cheap, quick, plot-holed, pulled out of ass end. Yes it was.
Did it do the things it didn’t suppose to do, didn’t the things it supposed to ? Yes, it did. Yes it didn’t.
Did it was first, or last game that does\doesn’t do all that. No.

So take a chill pill, and wait for next DLC: “Unopened Mass Relay Explorer”, or: “The journeys of USS Citadel”, or something like that.

This is Civita dei Baggnorgio, from my trip to Italy. There are only about 8 people who live here as the city is falling apart. There are a lot of cats there that like to follow you and creap you out. We went in the morning when the sun just started to rise and there was no on in the town. By the time we left it was full.
