The obvious answer to killing the Reapers seems to be destroying the Earth relay with another massive asteroid as in ME2 destroying Earth plus the Reapers. At least that seem to the most feasible method of ridding the galaxy of the Reaper threat while leaving the rest of the relay intact. That would be really bittersweet but obvious to any good writer.

LOL.... this is just ridiculous... we're getting 404 and this dude magically gets the image... lol.. this is way ridiculous... you liars... lol

I messed up my numbers. It was a 403 forbidden error, but I managed to get it to work. The image is there. I don't have context for it by any means, but it's there.

I'm getting the image too, for what it's worth, which isn't much because it proves nothing.

It's probably attributed to the fact I've already visited that URL early this morning, meaning that it maybe be in a cache or something along those lines.

No, i never ignored them. One of the supossed screenshots has been taken down and the other one is SUPER SMALL (suspicious isnt it?) and OBVIOUSLY fake.

I mean, c'mon, man.

Except both work and neither of them are small.

I just want to know if there is a chance for the entire ME crew to get back together and begin rebuilding.

As of now, no. Probably never. It seems they are stuck on that planet forever. Sorry

Well not all of them, Tali and Garrus won't last long without food.

At least they have each other. If one dies, the other can eat the flesh.

Agreed, just remember that Tali has a shotgun.

Yeah, but I don't think a Turian would be fun to eat.

I'm probably alone on this, but I think the ending makes sense. After setting the Reapers up as being vastly more powerful than all other races combined, any kind of happy end would have been completely ridiculous. So, props to Bioware for taking their own lore seriously and not coming up with some silly deus ex machina.
It's not so impressive though that there is only one ending. There should have been at least a 'you lose'-type ending where the Reapers win and the cycle of destruction continues.

The thing is, the Reapers really weren't set up as some unstoppable threat. Consider:

Sovereign got its own stupid ass killed. Furthermore, it couldn't directly assault the Citadel itself to begin the new cycle because the Citadel fleet posed a significant threat to it. It needed the Geth and Saren, because it couldn't just sweep one Council fleet aside on its own. The Fifth fleet destroyed Sovereign, even after having an all-out slugfest with the Geth, despite the Alliance being the weakest in numbers and technology among the major players in Council space. Heck, why even waste its time with the Geth? Just have Saren walk into the Council chambers one fine afternoon, cap the Council and activate the Citadel relay -- no need to worry about the beacons, Cipher, Mu relay, Ilos or the Geth feint at all, because apparently Saren didn't even need the Prothean command program or knowledge of what the Protheans did and how, at all considering Saren didn't even make an attempt to contact Vigil.

That's before the Council races get their hands on the "super-advanced Geth ship" and reverse engineer it to advance their own military technology god only knows how far. Like, for example, the three plot-critical Normandy upgrades, one of which is explicitly stated to be from reverse-engineered from Reaper tech and the other two heavily implied to be as well -- that came from Turian and Quarian sources and not just Alliance or Cerberus. And the Alliance got their hands on the SR-2, reverse engineered it and got access to that tech, too. Just in case we want to pick nits about who has access to what tech, when and how.

Harbinger was just smart enough to be genre savvy, but not genre savvy enough to seal the deal by, say...self-destructing the Collector ship while Shepard was aboard and just writing it off as an acceptible loss.

It's firmly established by Vigil the Reapers' primary strengths are surprise and subterfuge. Well, those two elements are pretty well out the window. Outside that, all the Reapers really have going for them is strength in numbers, because they're obviously not remotely as smart or powerful as they're made out to be.

And, how is the Crucible and Guardian in any way not a deus ex machina? Pulling from Wikipedia here out of sheer laziness, a deus ex machina "is a plot device whereby a seemingly unsolvable problem is suddenly and abruptly solved with the contrived and unexpected intervention of some new event, character, ability, or object." That's...pretty much the exact definition of deus ex machina, to the letter.

I agree competely. 

But Bioware evidently wanted the Reapers to be Lovecraftian spacegods that could only be stopped through plot contrivance. 

Severely hurts the whole thing.

Copying/pasting it on the address bar works. Yeah, "magic".

[gogman25]

Looks pretty damn legit to me, I sincerely doubt anyone would go to such measures just to troll us.

[Chromes]

If I may, I still bare the hope for some good endings written using game engine. I went through some videos of ME2 in movies directory and some were missing like who died/survived the final mission at the end. As our decisions should play major role in endings (IMHO) maybe we'll get such good/bad endings in ME3 depending on our playthrough. Cinematics were done for those events that would be equal for all decisions, but specifics were made on game engine (assumption).
Though I would say that inevitable destruction of relays is bad for me, and the fate of Normandy...

How could you mix up something like that? Because you're lying and don't even have a clue.

Now, can you gtfo please? It's been proven you didnt saw screenshots, never saw the actual ending and didn't read a thing.

GTFO please.

HAHAHAHA, seriously, can you hear yourself? They posted the screeshots in THIS VERY THREAD. HAHAHA!

Get your facts straight, stop lying, and GTFO.

NEXT!.

Haha, whatever you say, dude; you really seem like someone I should take seriously.

He was calling us who wish for a better ending, "teenagers cry babies" or something like that, many pages ago.

He can't get the imgur link to open because it will say "forbidden" untill you press enter on the address bar, then the pic will show. He doesn't know that?

Now, the 4 pics montage on imgur doesn't show much and doesn't seem to prove anything. Expect that the bottom right one looks really bad to be real.

In any case, unless the space guy uploads a video of it, I wouldn't count on what he says being true. Who is he? Is he the guy who bought it from Ebay for 400 bucks? That's insane and I wouldn't believe what an insane guy says. ME2 ending cinematics are not in a bink file, IIRC. They are made with the ingame engine, so it adapts to the party which is on the mission. If ME3 is anything like that, he can't have it unless he played it all, not just watched some videos.

Plus, unless there is a video of that on youtube or somewhere else which won't delete it, it is hardly proven.

Yes, they're small, why can't we get them full sized? Well ive always played the game in 1080p not in whatever the small size they are.

Pretty sad that all the diehard naysayers really have nothing on their side except "This proves nothing."

Again, did anyone of the leakers mentioned that ending videos show the squad members, crew or even shepard?

[albertalad]

The obvious answer to me is using another asteroid as in ME 2 to destroy the Earth relay which would destroy both Earth and the Reaper threat in another massive supernovae explosion while leaving the rest of the Galaxy relays intact. That seems to be the obvious real choice Sheppard has to make. At least any good writer would present this choice.

[Carnage752]

Alright, GameZone did a review that has Michael Gamble saying that there is multiple DIFFERENT endings. Are the leaks fake or is Bioware straight up lying now? Whatever the case, I'm going to backstab either the leakers or Bioware.

Check it yourself:

Videos are not in 1080p. I think we have some in 480p and some in 720p, though I can't remember. Definitely not 1080p.
