Does anyone know if TVTropes has raped analyzed Mass Effect 3 yet?

Did IGN take down their poll on Facebook? Cant see it....

Lols.

Nope, the poll https://www.facebook...359051633/ ]can still be found here![/url]

I'll be back to remind everyone to vote again in an hour .

Hmmm...odd, it came up as social.bioware.com in your actual post

I've fixed that now, I don't know why it was doing that. My browsers clipboard kept pasting it in underline/link format for some bizarre reason, when it hasn't done so before. Strangeness.

Actually even if Shep lives (ill point out that he can now, though you have to play multilayer for it.) its still a wickedly bittersweet ending. Anderson dies. Several of your closest.friends die. How many hundreds of BILLIONS had to die to achieve victory. Nah to just have Shep die while bringing the galaxy into a new Dark Age isn't really bittersweet, its just bitter. The whole game is just so damn dark. You genuinely see the war having a toll on Shep. You lose friends and you experience failure (Thessia). I loved it, but I anticipated a hopeful payoff in the end. Its good storytelling. Cliche maybe but not much more than hero sacrifice. Ultimately I keep coming back to Dragon Age Origins. Hero sacrifice means so much more when you have to CHOOSE to do it. If you're forced into it it takes away the heroic aspect if it. A DAO style ending would have allowed most anyone.to.get.the ending.that they wanted, be it noble sacrifice.or triumphant hero. That's what I would have loved to see.

I agree and its exactly what i've been saying. DA Origins gave you that choice. All they had to to was give us the choice here too. Choosing to sacrifice yourself is much more powerful than being forced into it. Bioware keeps boasting about the choices it gives us and how we as players can choose how to play, but this ending simply does not reflect this.

Aside from Facebook poll, anything new/of note this weekend? Compiling links for the late shift.

It crossed my mind that Synthesis is a deception, everyone is now a reaper.

What's so bad about that?

You folks need to get a moderator to validate your position on images. As far as I can understand from the rules and from quite a bit of personal experience on the forum, that post did not violate forum rules. It was a perfectly valid commentary on the thread topic. Where is this "no images" notion coming from? Rule 6 is very clear about what does and doesn't constitute image spam.

I've never seen a thread locked here for images that are (1) pertinent to the topic, and (2) include text supporting their relevance.

Actually not true. Because FTL is achieved by lowering the mass of the ship to allow for faster velocities, intertial momentum is kept at a minimum. The crew are also inside the mass effect field and as such also have their mass lowered by the same extent. When everyone gains mass, along with the ship, conservation of momentum requires that they will slow down at exactly the same rate. There will be no jerk at all in fact because the momentum change is effectively zero.

If this were not the case then every ship which went through a mass relay would end up with paté instead of a crew before they reached the other side.

The person who spent a long time a while back explaining why dropping out of FTL neglected to take into account that the crew were also effectively massless while travelling at FTL as well as the ship. The mass effect field functions as an intertial damper (which is what they have in Star Trek to combat the same issues with Warp Technology).

However ships crashing into planets generally don't have a good outcome.  Especially without wings/main engines.

I can't fault you there. I can only assume that the foliage of the jungle is more springy and robust that that on earth.

Also, it's safe to assume that the conventional and maneuvering thrusters are not all located on the wings (which we know is true as otherwise docking in the Citadel, Feros, Noveria and other such locations where the Normandy has to effectively "park" in mid air before the landing clamps are in play. If there were no other points of propulsion then the Normandy would either fall out of the sky on planets when docking, or crash into the dock where there is little or no atmosphere to provide friction (such as Purgatory).

This term "BitterSweet" is used to define the endings/
as an adj. "Sweet with a bitter aftertaste" - Source Google seach "define Bittersweet"
Makes me shiver with disagreement. I mean was it really sweet at all? I only got the horrid after taste.
Even in the BEST CASE, everyone is pretty much stuck on earth, Starving to death.
Just wanted to say that, it was bothering me a bit.

Nah, that's YouTube.

The code won't let you simply refresh to see if the view count goes up; you have to close the browser or tab and reopen using a link or something.

This might be controversial, though I feel like I have to say it.

So----the Child's Play donations are at $65000+, that's amazing.

But could we also donate to another charity? $75 covers a year's worth of school expenses, for kids in developing countries. Wouldn't it be awesome if we could provide 1000 kids with a Shepard Scholarship?

[AgentWhite1416]

There should be an actual dramatic ending where Marauder Shields saves the day.

My mother and one of her next door neighbours collect bottles, take them back for recycling, and buy school supplies for a school down in the Dominican republic

I would love, personally, to donate to another charity or donate more to this one...but being between jobs right now, I don't have too much spare money >.<

We are requesting it, we are not enforcing it, it's an attempt to keep the thread tidy and "reduce" the chance of image spamming which people have a tendancy to do when "quoting" images, you sometimes get several people that will quote the same post/image, the thread then becomes spammy.

I am...frustrated.  With the ending.

As with the first two series of the franchise, I was enjoying the story and the gameplay.  Then came the extremely confusing end.  I won't go into too many details as they've been harped on up and down the internet, but certainly seeing a squadmate of mine who was with me in the tank rolling towards the final run to the beam...then end up, inexplicably on the Normandy...??  Then there was...oh, nevermind, it's already been discussed.

Mass Effect 3's ending was memorable.  But unfortunately, for the wrong reasons   This ending fell flat.  That is now two sequels in a row (Dragon Age 2 being the other) where I was not happy with the end due to the lack of any "oomph" and more questions than answers.  Not fun.
