I'd ask you to make one for Croatia, but I appear to be the only one that has reported in on the new site, so I won't bother you - I'm sure there are 50 other countries that could make the argument their banner has priority.

I just wanted to share my thoughts of the ending with you, which I already posted in the german part of the forum.
I am not a native english speaker, so please excuse the mistakes I may have made in the translation of my text:

I absolutely loved Mass Effect 1, 2 and 3...

For several years, no game managed it, to bind me emotionally to all the different game characters of a game like the Mass Effect Universe managed this.

I laughed with them (What Garrus said in ME3, when Shepard caught him and Tali kissing)
I felt happy with / for them (same scene with Garrus and Tali, and when my FemShep and Liara said, that they loved each other)
I felt the same Anger like them (on Cerberus and TIM, after Thessia)
I even felt true(!!!) grief, when I heard about the death of a less important character (after the Cerberus attack,when the two nsc on the citadel talked about Cerberus killing Kelly Chambers...)

... and all that was ruined within the last ten minutes of the game...

I finished the game 5 days ago, but wasn´t able to find words for my feelings about the ending for 3 days after that...

On the first day, when I finished the game just minutes before I left for work, I was stunned, I felt like an empty bottle, I was lethargic, close to depression... I couldn´t stop thinking about the end the whole day long, my thoughts were mixed with phrases like: "This can´t be true... What did they think.... How could they..."

My co workers noticed my state, but as we are a computer store (where I even bought my copy of ME3), they understood my feelings and didn´t say anything about my bad work on that day

On the second day, my mood changed into frustration and anger, I was close to writing a thread with lots of bad words into the german part of the forum, but then I found a thread similar to this one
(which had about 1.200 replies then, today there are 4.600 ones)
... so I spend the whole day reading, and was happy about the fact, that I was not the only one who felt bad about the ending.

On day three, I finally felt able to find acceptable words for my feelings, so I started writing this text.

I absolutely can´t buy any more Bioware games with clear conscience, as I have to fear, thatI will be disappointed excessively. I even deactivated my SW-TOR account, and won´t reactivate it, before Bioware propitiates  me again..

And this conciliation can only happen in one way: a DLC with a much better,  a happy ending, where the Reapers... and ONLY the Reapers will be destroyed, and everything else in the galaxy continues with their usual way... like: the mass relays are not destroyed, my Femshep and Liara get some blue offspring(s), Shepard visits Tali on Rannoch and looks through the living room window they have spoken about the last time on Rannoch, while Garrus puts a picture on a wall next to them (i had to smile, when I thought oft that situation)

And of course, as a proper ending belongs into a finished game, and Bioware didn´t manage (for what reason ever) to give us this ending in the finished game... the patch, of DLC that fixes their terrible mistake should be FOR FREE!!!

I hope you understand, what I want to say, I had to use leo.dict for many, many words :blush:

It was like 6am here in Germany on Friday when I finished, and a (red) spacemagic explosion just destroyed anything ME has been for me over the last 5 years. I haven't been really sad or dissapointed at that point. I was just like.....nothing, empty. Not even tired, just empty. I never thought it was possible for me to be beaten down like that by a VIDEO GAME!?!? After like 3 hours of sleep I got to this forum and, you know, it just felt right to be here. As I read through this topic I started to understand that nearly everybody was feeling the way I do, that the problem is not me, it's the game.


You're not alone by a long way.

The last 5 minutes destroyed any point in all the very careful choices made over 5 years.

NO Retreat!  (and no inappropriate smileys either please..)

I'd also like to point out that this movement could be considered a microcosm of where the world is(hopefully) headed. Culture/music/etcetc becoming a world wide thing instead of isolated based on arbitrary borders.

One step closer to becoming a Type 1 Civilization, thanks to Bioware!


Still, it seems like always an 'alien threat' is required for us to stop strangling each other. :?

Is anyone else finding all this incredible?

I don't mean ME3 or the (none) comments from BW, but the reaction to it?

Consider that we have people from each and every country effectively working together towards the same end, and doing so with little to no friction. I can't think of any other point in history that people from so many countries have joined together like this. Heck, if you can get the French, Germans and the English agreeing on anything, that is history in the making....;)


It is really amazing, sitting back to think about it - who would have thought that all it would take for world peace to start taking shape was a group of people who share a love of great games ;)


Kind of ironic considering that the game is all about getting everyone working together to stop an evil force from destroying the universe.


That's pretty crazy when you think about it..

Kinda like History in the making.


Years from now, when the little gamers ask us what it was like in the old days, before #insertrandomstereotypegamehere#, we can tell them about the great battle, and that we were there, armed with nothing more than our keyboards and our hope, and HOLDING THE DAMN LINE!


Well...I do have a cane, so technically I'm armed. Even if swinging said stick would only result in me wrecking the screen and falling over with a (manly) scream.

Proof that they going to do something. ( maybe upload new dlc with ending ? )


Uh, or it's just server maintenance. Plenty of games do this weekly. Don't mean to disappoint you, just saying.

No, I think it is only regular maintenance. And usally the XBox Live marketplace is updated on Tuesday, as far as I know.

I see that many people demand FREE DLC with a changed/fixed end. In my case it isn't so. I will PAY GLADLY for something that will put my mind at ease. Seriously last 3 days were terrible. Apparently I was so much connected with the story and characters that my mind can't deal with that terrible, sense-lacking ending we all hate. When my Shep was storming the beam and got knocked over by Harbinger...my first thought were about Tali, if she is OK. This is how powerful emotions this game creates. Odd but true.

I feel so damn depressed... but I'm also happy I donated and I'm proud of holding the line with you guys. KEEP IT UP!

That
struck me as amazing, too. I am not one to dabble often on forums. However,
this incidence has presented precedence. I have always held the theory that
large enough collaborative efforts can achieve absolutely anything, such as history
has shown. Now, I know this seems a trivial issue to those not fans of the
game, but it is amazing nonetheless. And the fact that it has become worldwide
is truly awe inspiring. 


There's a lot more potential in this movement than non-gamers wouls want to believe. The donations to Child's Play are proof of it.

Sorry to disappoint you, but new DLC would be spread via EA origin, that has nothing to do with the multiplayer stuff... :crying:

Ohio checking in.

I also am so proud of the community for coming together like this.

Anybody feel like if we win, then this is very similar to ME3? We came together, people all around the world, to stop the Evil Ending invasion.. Lol.

Hold the line my friends!

Just wanted to mention, on the topic of it being fast-tracked through QA: Udina is supposed to be Councilor in all games, Anderson leaves either his Councilor position or his advisory position in the book Retribution.

Yep, leaves in disgust at the council's attitude.

I couldn't imagine Anderson working for cerberus, so I'm fine with that. Never liked Udina, but shooting him, that was even better than I imagined :innocent:
