Mass Effect 3 is coming out and I cannot wait! I've been thinking lately on the possible endings we could get. Whats your idea on the most satisfying ending Commander Shepard and the Mass Effect series could get? Please be more specific than "I hope the Reapers die.", cause we all want that.  :happy:

[Commander_Adept]

I hope that the Reapers don't all get rewritten like the Heretics in order to defeat them.

My perfect ending would be Shepard delegating his squadmates to command certain armies (Obvious things like Mordin should lead the Salarians, but some not so obvious things like Miranda leading a new Cerberus would fail, Jacob leading a new Cerberus wouldn't fail, Jack leading a new Cerberus would kill everything for the ultimate ending) ala the way the Suicide Mission was. That was probably one of my favorite things in gaming. They gave you a taste on Virmire of a similar thing (Kaidan or Ashley goes with Kirrahe, etc), but the Suicide Mission was art. Give me that on a grander scale and Mass 3 will go down as the best game ever in my book.

I'd also like to see at least one ending where Shepard ends up with non-blue babies. Seems the only possibilities are Jack, Kaidan, Ashley and Jacob for that. Then again, it'd all have to work with skin tones and eye colors, facial features, etcetcetc. I don't know if it'd work. At least, I'd like to see how Jack would react to being pregnant lol

One thing I really loved about Fable III was the choice system for particular things that changed the environment around you. Like that one Hippie village was up for either staying the way that it was, peaceful in the forest, or turned into a sewage dump for Bowerstone. Obviously, I turned it into a sewage dump, because well... **** hippies. But that village was forever changed after that point, and that's actually changing the game world itself, a place you could always travel to. It's not like Teltin on Pragia, where you only went there TO blow it up. I like this system and would like to see a similar thing incorporated into Mass 3.

Edit: I just realized that I more or less just described part of what I want to see in Mass 3 and not just the endings. Sorry about that, OP

It's fine =) I think thats a great idea though. Everything you said Bioware should consider

[OneMore1968]

It's going to be really tough for BW to live up to all the hype that ME3 is currently receiving. And is it really going to be the last one? Who knows. As you say, the suicide mission was an epic battle and very well done.

Shame that BW didn't think further in advance and reverse ME3 with ME2. Guess they didn't realise it was going to be so popular. That said, I am sure (fingers crossed, they are delaying until after Christmas, so they must be confident of success) that they will deliver.

They'd better, otherwise there will be a lot of Shepards' paying a visit to the folks at BW lol.

[Joshua N7]

Ha ha yeah, oh and theyve been in talks about a Mass Effect MMO. I'm not gonna like confirm it and say it's definately gonna happen, but I know their entertaining the idea. I think Commander Shepard should do his pedo smile and Harbinger blows up.

Paragon:
High casualties.
Lots of worlds destroyed.
Earth (possibly) lost.
Every species united to rebuild the galaxy.

Renegade:
Minimal casualties.
Less worlds destroyed.
Earth (possibly) saved.
Every species on the verge of war.

[Joshua N7]

Interesting notion Dave of Canada...nice gamer pic.

[Someone With Mass]

Reapers are destroyed, we didn't have to sacrifice much, Cerberus is no more and Shepard can finally rest with ease.

[LuckIs0nMySide]

Preferably, I would like to see these three endings included in the game:

1) Ultimate Victory - The Reapers are defeated, everyone survives etc.

2) Ultimate Sacrifice - Shepard gives his life to stop the Reapers

3) Epic Fail (for those who really screw up) - Everyone dies, and the Reapers purge the galaxy once more

Also, a conclusion to your romance path would be nice as well

[naledgeborn]

There's going to be more than 3 endings. I think.... no source sorry. If true. Than I'll be happy with any combination of Dave's scenario.

[Joshua N7]

I actually always liked the idea of Shepard sacrificing his life. I don't know, it seems like real good closure to Shepards journey.

Ditto. 

I'd be a little pissed if it comes to that.

Besides, can't do side misisons and NG+ after the story is done if you're dead, right? 

[Joshua N7]

Very true. It could be a choice though. Thats just me though =) I wouldn't mind at all if Shepard lives.

Good point, hadn't thought of that

Though I think Dave is on the money with this one

You want to do side missions after you've defeated the reapers? Your Shepard is a helluva tough son of a b*tch

[Someone With Mass]

Eh.

Worlds can be restored. As long as we stop the Reapers from devastating more planets, I'm good.

Well, the game will reward the thorough player who's doing many side missions as well as the story, so better save as few as possible for later.

Yeah, I heard that the side missions are gonna have some impact on the main story, less than the actual missions of coarse. If not than theyll probably give you more in depth info on whatever is going on

[Quinnzel]

Paragon: Earth sacrificed for the greater good
Renegade: Earth sacrificed for the lulz

[Joshua N7]

Ha right.
Reporter: Why did you sacrifice Earth?
Renegade Shepard: I haven't had a good laugh in a long time, I saw the opportunity and...
Ha I doubt that would happen but it's fun to joke about. If anything Renegade Shep will sacrifice an alien world.

[jamesp81]

I think of the ending in two parts. One is the political backdrop, the other is what happens to your characters.

I prefer a "unity of endings" for the political scene, post reaper war. Earth survives but heavily damaged, same for everyone else's homeworlds and largest colonies. A lot of colonies are depopulated and the whole galaxy turns into the wild west for a few years post Reaper War.  Reapers are dead, extinct, and not coming back.  Pieces of Harbinger's corpse are put on display as a warning to all what happens when you **** with humanity. Udina dead too. That thought gives me a warm fuzzy.

The endings for each character should be wide open ranging from happily ever after all the way to epic fail / death.

I also expect ME3 will have a fail ending kind of like ME2 did as a way to inform the player that he needs to step up his game and/or pay better attention to the plot cues.

I bet. I wanna see the Turian council members face when he discovers that Shepard was correct the whole time

Ahh yes *air quotes* "Shepard was correct"

[wilhelm Screamer]

EVERYONE DIES

Shepard gets a nice statue on the citadel (holding LI of choice in one hand, hand cannon in the other. Your two most used squadmates stand behind him with guns at the ready).
