Yes it can. I can't believe that anyone can say something like this after genres of 20th century literature... There are shitloads of books that are INTENTIONALLY ambivalent and ambiguous. Relativism was often the only true author's intent...Author's intent can't be something "to you".It is to me.No, you were pretty clearly arguing that the IT was the author intent.
It has to be that to the author.
It must be really hard to craft something that is compatible with various ideas and concepts. You can't just throw some shit out there and let the audience deal with it. As for Mass Effect 3, I really don't know if it's just a nonsensical mess, or pretty deep story with clever narrative parts. I came to conclusion that it is actually both at the same time. (This seems likely in case of author who is clever and talented but has to deal with horrible deadline.) But I played it soon after the release, so I'm gonna play through it again with more caution pretty soon just to be sure...
Also, the lead writer and "unofficial" lead writer (Casey Hudson) managed all three games. I find it hard to believe that they have no fundamental thoughts about the subject. Otherwise, they would really be incompetent dumb fools.
Oh, and I don't actually believe in IT, but have my own interpretation. Maybe it's also out there, I haven't really chcecked. But I will soon after I play through that bad boy again.
