Shepard goes out in a heroic way saving the day from the Reapers. i hate Return of the Jedi style endings where everyone live happily ever after. that never happens. to quote *Varric talking to Anders from DA2* "well its not a good story unless the hero dies."


The only genres that uses deaths for cheap emoting are Oscar bait and chick flicks.  It's like there's some unwritten rule that someone has to die a brave and tear-jerking death in order to create "real drama".

FSCK THAT!  I want Shepard to stand at the heart of the Reaper base, scores of dead things around him/her, and have EDI come on-line.  All she says is "I'm sorry Shepard, but the Reapers are in another castle".  Roll Credits.

If I could tell you about it, then it probably isn't amazing enough.

I want a rainbows and butterflies ending, and I will do everything in my power to make it happen.

You're at the final battle at the edge of known space, your battered fleet attacking what is left of the Reapers.

Suddenly, an armada of Hammerhead class cruisers appear with an entourage of Foray-class frigates and Aurek tactical strikefighters!

...it's a brick joke from KotOR. =D

Multiple endings that have branching outcomes depending on:
-Your alignment
-Your chosen love interest
-Your personal choices made

Sacrifice: Shepard, his/her chosen love interest sacrifice him/herself for the galaxy
Council: Shepard joins either an Interracial or Human Only Council and leads
Marriage: Shepard marries his/her chosen love interest and (if possible) settles down and starts a family
Spectre: Shepard continues life as a Spectre
Cerberus: Shepard becomes the next head of Cerberus or a new organization (Renegade)
Reaper: Shepard becomes indoctrinated and/or sides with the reapers willingly

I can see:

-My canon paragade vanguard putting away the guns and settling down to become Mrs Taylor (or Vega if he's likable enough, not going to judge till I play the game)

-My paragon sentinel having marriage and little blue children with Liara (I want to make good on that promise)

-My paragon soldier sacrificing himself to save the galaxy and forever be remembered in history

-My neutral engineer riding off into the sunset with Jack and settling down on Eden Prime, giving both a chance for a new life in peace

-My renegade infiltrator to become the head of the Human Alliance or possibly Cerberus complete with Ashley and Miranda as his personal har-I mean, guards

-My renegade adept to become totally indoctrinated to the Reapers or become a Reaper herself and cause massive amounts of destruction just because she's inclined that way

-My renegade vanguard to stay true to Ash and possibly continue life as protectors of humanity and the galaxy

I want to see a variety, in other words, and hopefully not text epilogues like in Origins but really see them play out before our eyes (the 'holiday 2011' to March 2012 delay better be worth it in other words).

Like we haven't seen a million "hero wins and gets the girl" endings? i think that's worse. i don't want to see the characters die just for the sake of it. i would like a good setup that lends itself to that end.  i hate character killed off for no reason. but for Shepard i wouldn't mind seeing it. mind you ive invested years in ME so i don't say that lightly.

i think there should be a TRUE ENDING, and the only way to unlock it is if you complete the default endings.

instead of where the game ends, the game continues and you have a chance to change everything to how you want it to be at great expense andd if you completed secret pre-requisites in the default endings.

sort of like clannad.

That's some pretty deep stuff there, quite unlike your sig.

Right, they're both tropes that work in certain genres.  Deaths for tear-jerking are for sappier endeavors, so sacrificing a LI or a noble savage (alien) would be played for cheap emotion.  Hero's sacrifice is common for this genre so is marginally more acceptable. 

Personally, I'd rather see an Ender's Game ending, or a completely from-left-field mind-bender ending.

I want multiple endings but I think there should be a cannon ending to leave the ME world in as interesting as possible state for future games in the franchise.

In that cannon ending I want earth to be saved but with the population and infrastructure devastated. About 90% depopulated. Also a number of colonies would be obliterated. The other species should also suffer losses but to a much smaller degree.

A handful of Reapers should survive and be at large in the galaxy.

Quarians should retake their homeworld leaving the Geth hostile and in isolated pockets of the galaxy.

The genophage should be partially cured, young Krogan are being born free of it's taint but leaving a number of years before their numbers will start to dramatically accelerate leaving a sleeping problem for later. Salarians should also suffer heavy damage leaving them exposed to future Krogan aggression.

Turians and Asari should emerge to lead the council changing the voting system to be proportionally based on a combination of population and economics (giving them effective control). Under them would be the Salarians, Humans, Batarians (who help out in the war) and Volus (who the Turians control). Hannar and Elcor are put on a program to gain council membership. Publically relations would be "touchy feely everythings great" but politcially the different species would soon start positioning themselves to gain more power.

Humanity would be forced to recolonise quickly while simultaneously dealing with state pirates and privateers.

Shepard should be able to die in the final battle -- not through some big heroic action, but as simply another casualty of war. The Reapers are defeated, and Joker/Ashley/Kaidan (or any character that has been there since ME1, really), tries to radio Shepard. You hear his/her voice over the radio as the camera slowly zooms out, showing Shepard's dead body. The epic/sad music that has been playing through this entire cut-scene comes to an epic "finale", then credits.

I'd wouldn't be quick to throw around the word "Canon" when taliking the ME games. not likey to get a good response doing that. just fair warning. :whistle:

I read some posts saying the ending should be determined by a myriad of things INCLUDING decisions from ME-1 and ME-2. As a PS3 user, I find this unfair. My Me-2 is shaped by the default decisions made in ME-1. And I would hate to have made some decision in ME-2 that locks me into Earth annihilation before i've even purchased ME-3.

Your assuming in me3 you won't be given the positive benefit of choices in me1. I doubt they would shaft the ps3 like that they went out of their way to make genesis for you.

i bought ME-2 used :( so no Cerberus network.....i kno, i can get it for 15 bucks but not at the moment.....not saying I dont want my ME-2 decisions to mean anything, of course I do, but I think the difference between victory, defeat, or loss an LI should be largely based on ME-3. I want the structure of ME3 made by ME2. But not its ending.....

I want it to end with Shepard as Emperor of the galaxy with the first Human Empire at his back.
LoL Seriously I would just want to be able to utterly destroy the Reapers and have the rest of the galaxy be grateful. I'm not really picky at this point, I just want it to be fun and make sense and then I'll be happy unless it's ****ing depressing. Then I'll sue bioware for ripping off Fallout 3.

to be honest, outside of keeping Ashley and killing the council, I have no idea wut other decisions were made for me or how that effected my ME-2.

As long as it doesn't have the Shep leaves.....and is never heard from again ending I'll be happy. I just want my shep to live comfortably with Tali...or Liara...still deciding on that. If one of my people die I'd be pissed but it would be acceptable. If it's something like everyone in my crew dies, including me, to stop the reapers I'd be pissed.

Somewhere between bittersweet ending and downer ending would be nice.
