For us,it would be awesome if the endings we saw were a hallucination that will be explained/fixed in later dlc/expansion packs but there are so many "casual" gamers, who will buy the game because they see an ad on YouTube or in their games shop. They won't buy DLC. I don't think a company should EVER release an incomplete game, especially if its said to be the last of the story and has been advertised as wrapping the story up.

Yeah I'm thinking the indoctrination/hallucination thing is what it is. They could have been more clear and there wouldn't have been such of an outrage by the fans I think.

We were talking on MP about all the Kaidan Scenes. And how if you take him on the samara mission you go "What's that noise?!" and he's all "Sorry I tripped >.>" Cracked me up. Sbarge did and AMAZING job with the voice acting in this one. I've heard the ashely one isn't as good.


There are so many times I just want to smack him. In a funny way. Like when he talks about the ArdatYakshi and EDI. When he did this. Their relationship just works for me, like they've been together forever.

About GRRM...I'm a huge fan. I have no problem with characters in his book dying. Especially not when they're Starks :devil: But those characters are not characters who's looks and behavior I have created. I do not control what those characters say or do and cannot decide if Ned Stark should stay in the North a little bit longer or go South, and if he should stay with Catelyn or go off and pick up some hot commoner on an inn in King's Landing That's the difference between a book and an RPG. In a book I view the main characters from the outside. In an RPG, I play the main characters and they are an extension of myself and my choices.

I can appreciate dark endings. A lot of times, I even prefer dark endings in books and movies. Video games- a whole other thing, though. I want my Warden to marry Alistair. I want Revan to have Carth and be a part of the light side. I want the Bhaal-spawn to have the choice of staying with Anomen, annoying as he is. I want my last spirit monk to have a future with Sky. You get the point...If I romance somebody in a game, I want them to stay together. There are enough miserable things that I could feel depressed about going on in the real world, I don't need a video game to make me feel even more down.

Ok I am
obviously an idiot. I wanted to pick the destroy option. So I thought I
would just run toward the beam thing and it would give me the different
options, but Shepard just jumped in and I got the synthesis ending. What
did I do wrong and how do I pick destroy?


I'm just as stupid as you [smilie]../../../images/forum/emoticons/tongue.png[/smilie] The first time I played the ending, I didn't notice that there were different ramps. I just walked straight ahead and thought I'd get to choose in a dialogue wheel what Shep would do. Instead she just goes and jumps right into the energybeam and have her skin melt away [smilie]../../../images/forum/emoticons/crying.png[/smilie] I was pretty chocked. I didn't even understand which ending I got, I had to google the color to see that it was synthesis.

I don't get the whole 'Shepard was wearing different armour' thing, in my game she just looked like some of it had been blown off and other parts melted onto her. The thing that I don't get about that is if the heat was strong enough to melt armour that can resist bullets how does she still have an intact face? I guess it's gaem logic :P

I haven't yet had my 'perfect' ending with *SPOILER* Shepard taking a breath at the end, but I've heard that the armour is not melted or anything at that point so its either:
a) been an indoctrinated hallucination or
B) a serious design flaw on their part.

(Edited to add my origin account is Slydfox if anyone is interested in adding me to play MP :) )

My Shepard went into the battle wearing bright purple armor, but during the ending and the breath scene it is all melted and black. It's also a completely different style... weird

Try wearing Collector armor and then buy it that it melted into a completely different, more squared shape lol. They should've had the final outfit destroyed much more. Not more skin show, but much more deformed/melted so every armor could somehow get "railroaded" into this final one

Anyway, there's so much Kaidan stuff I wanna talk about after finishing the game xD I loved his writing, (back)story and all he did. I'm very very happy with his new writer, I think she got everything perfectly. Will write wall of text on my Kaidan impressions tomorrow xD

My Shep had a stylish green armor.

I love the Kaidan romance in the game, btw. The lunch scene and the sex scene are very romantic, and I love the part when Shep wakes up after the dream. And I love the line where Kaidan says he's always loved her. The goodbye talk makes me want to cry, it's just heart-breaking. I recorded the goodbye talk with Fraps so I've been watching it over and over. Will do the same for the other romance scenes.The romance is very well written.

Where's the "Wake me up next time" line?


@IsaacShep (SPOILERS):
What do you mean the armor melted off when breathing? I don't recall seeing that...
(END OF SPOILERS)


The more I think back on it past my initial emotional reaction, the less and less the ending makes sense.
But on a brighter note, I'm going to begin a replay tomorrow and record the cutscenes onto my laptop. Maybe I'll just call it good on the morning of the Cerberus attack for all further playthroughs...

And I really fell in love with the Alliance casual uniform, I think I'm going to try to make the outfit (with my super *cough*nonexistent*cough* sewing skills).

If they wanted to roll with the indoctrination thing none of the endings should have been the "perfect" one. Instead, Shepard should've broken from this stupid kid's control and argued that the synthetic vs. organic argument was false and that the peace between geth and quarian proved this.

At some point the vision should shatter and a Harbinger VI should appear, the reaper that is strangely absent aside from a 30 second cameo. Harbinger realizing he's been beaten begins threatening Shepard as Shepard goes to activate the Crucible. Reaper ships begin heading towards the citadel to try to stop Shepard. Shepard fully expects to go down with the citadel but then that's when the Normandy appears. The side hatch opens and Shep's LI or closest friend is standing there, offering a hand to help Shepard aboard. Right before activation the Normandy takes off with Shepard.

It's a bit like the destroy ending but this time the Normandy crashes on Earth and the Mass Relays still function so that big ass fleet can go back home again. Show a couple more scenes of other homeworlds seeing the Reapers deactivate. Pan back to the Normany. Hatch opens, out steps Shepard, then LI, then slowly the rest of the crew. They stare out across the once beautiful Earth, devastated but still there. Credits.

That wraps up everything and has a satisfying conclusion. No loose ends. The ending as it is now is impossible to decipher. We can come up with theories but they are just theories. Bioware promised to wrap up everything, they promised no LOST ending, they promised multiple endings. So were these all just marketing lies?

So writing my own Mass Effect story.  Maybe I will share it.

All these people getting snarky because we want "sunshine and rainbows" are really starting to annoy me.
I don't need sunshine and rainbows >.> Im going to say it... I found the last scene with her breathing was enough.. IF...
Squadies stepping off the Normandy? Unacceptable! Seriously!
Half dead squadies being patched up behind one of those barricades as you see the reapers go down? YES! *That* would have been totally acceptable and totally given me a different outloook on the ending... because its so much more realistic than what is there now.

I'm starting to think that the endings were a fever dream. Shepard was knocked out cold from the blast of the reaper beam, fill in endings here, and then when the scene wit Shepard breathing in comes up, thats where Shepard is coming to. Or i'm just trying to grasp at something so that these so-called "endings" make sense.

Though I'm not entirely sure how that makes any sense out of the last scene where its winter and a old man is telling the story to a child.


I hope your right! It could of been one of those situations where she experiances something and comes to realizing what she has to do. The only thing the irks me is they said this was the end of shepards story... So why would they leave it open ended like that!?! B


The "Renegade" ending makes for a good sequel hook, if they hadn't said it was Shepard's last game then I'd be inclined to think they were leaving a cliffhanger for the next. As it is, I'm assuming (meaning: hoping) that they'll come out with DLC for the real ending.


You know what.. they 'say' this is Shepards last outing, but considering they lied their asses off about the MULTIPLE endings whose to say they wont bring out a ME4 with Shepard in it again...

unlikely I know, but this game's ending is either THE biggest troll EVER or EA told Bioware they HAD to get the game out by march and they did this knowing that they would fix things with DLC

Whew, glad I can finally post now. *forgot how to register my game* Anyways all I've had to say about the endings has been repeated a thousand times over so my only comments will be that I support the indoctrination/hallucination theory and that these two videos pretty much describe the feeling we got while also being hilarious.
Sheploo finds out what the ending is
In which Hitler makes a surprising amount of sense

Whatever happened in the end though, ME3 was freaking amazing and lived up to all my hopes and dreams until then. Especially in the Kaidan romance department.:wub::wub::wub: Though I am saddened about what they did to Jacob.:unsure: But then I think of Kaidan:wub: and everything is better. *is feeling selfish* Everything was so sweet and built up slowly. And that butt scene was hilarious. My first thought was "Omg my Shep does that too!" and my second was "The ladies back at the forums are going to love this.:O". And that last scene before the final battle is really freakin tear your heart out and stomp on it sad, but so horribly romantic. :crying: Man I love the first 99% of this game for making me laugh, cry, and stand in awe.

Btw kind of OT but am I the only one that felt like Grunt's momma and felt like I lost my poor baby boy (not that I'd call him that within earshot) for those few seconds we thought he was dead?

Personally Im a little worried about Wrex after the one scene near the end.
and Reegar ;_;
But yes I was crying my eyes out with Grunt and Mordin and Thane.. and the goodbyes... yup I pretty much cried through the whole thing.
Maybe thats why by the actual end I was numb to the actual choices. Its only the Normady Jurassic planet squadies thing that got me grrring
Yeah I'll shut up about that lol. I can't help repeating my self :P
I think we all thought the same thing about the perving heheh

the chances are better then you would think that they will make a DLC that sorts out this debacle, this whole episode smacks of rushed endings whether they ran out of time because EA set a fixed release date after they delayed the first time.. it will all be a matter of timeframe

like if they release a 'better endings DLC' and do it quickly, then the game wasnt finished to start with and it was a push from EA to get it out in March, which for me makes Bioware blameless in all this

I searched and didnt see any multiples like some of the others and if you look at it closely it says 'Last Seen on Earth'

Wtf?

Easter Egg or were we meant to see it? Maybe Shgep wasn't hallucinating, at least not at the start...

I think she wasn't hallucinating from the beginning. Shep simply manifested all her/his fears and sorrow through the image of that little boy. He symbolises everything that was lost during this war to Shep and that's why she/he (if the hallucination theory is correct) sees the catalyst as that boy. Maybe reapers thought they could easily indoctrinate Shep through that particular image.


Edit: someone put top, im on my android :P
