I think Mr. Hudson has no idea what an unforgettable end is. Or maybe he does. The end of ME3 is unforgettably bad...

What Would Marauder Shields do? Fight the good fight and hold the line as best he could.


I like this human. He(?) understands.

Any new updates via twitter? Though I am not sure if I want to know....

Marauder shields never ducked for cover when he took the first hit, nor when he took the second. He stood strong in the face of bullets from the God Carnifex gun. So we must do the same.

Hold the line

And then, on the 8th of March 2012, the time had come. I dived back in determined to achieve the same trance I did on Ilos. On the way I cured the Genophage, united the Quarians and Geth, witnessed the deaths of Legion, Mordin, Thane and almost Grunt (don't you dare leave me Grunt). They died for a cause, a good cause. Then came the final stretch, assault on Earth. When the fleets arrived, my fleets, I knew that trance would be achieved soon. And it was. Then the unimaginable happened, the white lift of dread appeared (after an incredible scene with Anderson). I was in shock at the prospect of the choices, all of which were terrible. I am to sacrifice myself and destroy the Relays? Why? I would doom everyone I gathered to help me. I went for synthesis and thought it was the least bad choice. Colors happened and Normandy crashed. My crew abandoned me, Liara abandoned me, everyone left me there, nobody cared.

This is perhaps the most perplexing / annoying thing about the ending for me, and trust me, it is a long list of things about the ending that annoyed me. The body language and facial expressions of everybody coming off the Normandy at the end, right down to your LI, seem to be callously indifferent to the fate of Shepard. I mean, they could have showed them openly weeping and that'd upset me in a different way, of course, but what we have doesn't acknowledge anything. The presentation is just so empty.

Of course, in a perfect world, that whole crashing sequence wouldn't even happen, so perhaps the fact that they clearly put so little effort in constructing it and making it believable will heighten the odds of them writing it out in the future...

"Because he's the hero Bioware needs,

So we'll hunt him...

... because he can take it.

Because he's not our hero.

He's a Silent Guardian...

...a Watchful Protector.

A Marauder Shields."

Hold the line, do it for him.


I changed it a little bit, seems more fitting to me this way.

I can't believe how may 'fix-it' fanifcs have appeared since the end of ME3. I'd never ventured into the realm of fanfic before now, but i needed something to save my sanity. There are some pretty nicely written endings out there that don't even differ to much forom the originals. Take notes Bioware :P

It's more the way he's so insulting about the fact that we dislike the ending. I don't give a damn about Day 1 DLC but he tars all of us here with the same brush as the guys insulting devs and stuff. That's why I think he's a ******.


Usually this is actually from someone who didn't do proper due diligence in journalism.  I hate to admit it but even some of the ones strongly on our side are simply pulling the 'spokesperson line' from the Child's play page.  Maybe 2 or 3 total have actually come on here and read some of these comments.  The gentleman from Forbes appears to be one.  His references remind me of posts some here have made the past few days.

Welcome to modern journalism.. where if it doesn't show up on a wire or explode in front of you it's not worth writing about.

Even the music at the end of ME3 made me sad. Where is all that uplifting 'yeah we did it!" music from the other games? I really want to replay ME3 but every time i go to try I cannot bring myself to do it. The endings were powerful but totally killed the replayability...

The most frustrating thing is knowing Bioware could so easily fix it if they chose to have mercy.


The soundtrack for this game, as with the others as well, are nothing short of beautiful and amazing. Whenever I even dare try and listen to "I'm proud of you", I just see Anderson dying and oops there goes the tears.


I like it but I can't stand to lissen to it right now, too painful.

Posts going by so fast, I can't keep up and read all. I'm certainly not going back. I'm too old and I would die first before I get to all of them.

Without going to foul language, I think Mr. Hudson is smart enough to realize he just gave the core fanbase "le doigt d'honneur" and that he should make amends for that. Even though, this group opposes slandering campaigns, that's the most likely thing to happen when we find out BioWare is just toying with us.

I got my semi-ending. I accomplished what I set out to do: Destroy the Reapers. Why would I choose anything else? Control means being like TIM. Synthesis means being like Saren. No.

You know I actually thought of this very thing earlier, but then I'm at a point in my life where I want the happy ending. I want Shepard to be able to settle down (with his/her LI) and get made Chief Spectre or be the new Councilor for Humanity or something else sufficiently awesome. Not die after stranding a few billion people above a burning Earth and causing the distruction of galactic society.


wow that quote fits freaking perfectly with what we've been saying

also as a random sidenote I think its kinda funny how the :wizard: face is now synonomous with the ending....every time I see the little guy now it reminds me of space magic hahah

Totally agree, reality is crap enough as it is right?  I don't need hopelessness and despair in my games too...
