Uhh so would a harem ending count as sunshine and bunnies?


God, that reminds me how much I love Bioshock's ending....

I thought those in denial would've learned their lesson by now that it serves nothing but make them more bitter when the awful truth is revealed. We've known about these endings for months now, you need to accept it.

Hope springs eternal?

Being in this thread is actually strangely calming. Eye of the sh*tstorm?

I think it would make sense that no matter what, there will be tragedy in the end...


It isn't about the tragedy, I think. It's about how contrived it is. They show a throw-away scene and essentially are saying "PLEASE NO MORE MASS EFFECT". ME3's ending is essentially the D&D version of "rocks fall, everybody dies". Except with far more disturbing implications with inbreeding, starvation and the like.

I'm still not buying it. There's something we're missing. EVERY OPTION WE HAVE MADE along the way... every choice feeds into "Shepard's life sucks"? I understand not having an "Everybody lived happily ever after with no casualties" ending, but I just don't see how this could possibly be all there is. It flies directly in the face of everything Bioware has said and done in... well, ever. In any of their games, any of their franchises, any of their interviews. They have never shoehorned us like this.

We're missing something.

Yes something is missing. That why I think a troll is behind some of what we have seen in the thred

I see a lack of intelligence there. ME2-3's gameplay far worse than Gears? Really? GTFO please man, seriously GTFO.


Are you serious? ME2-3 are clunky all the time. I've never had a "clunky" problem in Gears. I should know I've played all 3 Gears and am a level 145 in Gears 3.

Ah, the amount of vitriol on this thread between members is quite astounding. I'm going to need more popcorn.

Seriously though, can we at least pretend to be civil?

gee, thats only been said a million times. Ur funny.

Uh-huk, aren't I just?

Not kidding though, a little civility wouldn't kill us.

May be a moot point, but in Infamous 2, if you took the good ending, Cole dies. Yet even after he dies the game dumps you back into the city to finish whatever you want.

Not saying ME3 will do that. Just thought I'd mention it.

Their hope is what led to this, they refused to raise a ****storm because the "script is fake! the leaks are fake! it's only a coincidence they meet up with all marketing! wait until the game is out! stop bashing it!". Even now with everything out they do mental gymnastics to try and stay hopeful.

So we can go through a suicide mission on ME2, survive, but we can't survive ME3 with all the support of all the races? da fuq? I'm gonna rate ME3 a 0 on metacritic for storywise. Because they're just telling us that no matter all those choices the past 2 games, they didn't matter **** because the endings are so alike so wtf.

Pretty much what you said, OP.

In short:


BW told us, the endings won't make everybody happy.
Truth is: the endings will make everybody sad.



And that, fellow fans, is the only truth here. Lets shove that down their throat.


No rainbows and puppydog ending?
Count me in for 2 preorders now... I'm in :wub:.  That's it... I'm in for $160 on this one.

I can't wait!!! I CAN'T WAIT!!!!

I just don't understand why people are so happy that other people are deprived of something that means a lot to them.  It's a bit sadistic.  And pretentious.  But I'm glad you're happy.


I'm not happy because you are upset.. I'm happy because it sounds like a good ending.

Stopping a galactic extinction is quite a good ending. I remember how angry people got with FO3.. The idea of trading the life of a virtual character to save humanity was unthinkable... I really didn't get that.. You would think a courageous ending would be good... But apparently the idea of self sacrifice is lost.. If there were an invading army, their would clearly be a boxspring above such people and not a gun in their hand.. Is nothing worth dying for to you? Trading the lives of one crew TO SAVE THE ENTIRE GALAXY is an insult to you?? Do explain, because I'm truly not getting it.  Is courage that lost on you?  I am really and truely asking this..  I'm not attempting to be sarcastic, or sadistic.  I want to know.

People could of disagreed with the ideas way back when people voiced them.  This sounds a lot like what  many people described and asked for..  People agreed with the ideas then.  I didn't hear strong objections then?  Look back at some of the things I posted way back after ME2.. This sounds like what I was talking about and people liked the ideas then.

So it's not rainbows and kittens.. Good.  You trade your life for the galaxy.  Is the galaxy to small?
It's a hero's death.
A HERO'S DEATH!!!

So excuse my :sick: at the outrage.

Well, you didn't say that you were happy because you liked the ending.  You said you were happy because there was no alternate ending for people who might have wanted it.  I've already quoted you, but I'll do it again: "No rainbows and puppydog ending? Count me in for 2 preorders now... I'm in"  You're happy because there is no alternative and we're all being forced into the same ending, which happens to be one you enjoy.  And I'm happy that there is an ending that you enjoy!  Now, I want one that I will. (Not fair, actually, because despite a major disappointment with what happens to the crew [supposedly], I'm reasonably satisfied with this ending.  But I wish there was an alternative one to make EVERYONE happy)

Incidentally, can we just stop using the following words in this thread: Rainbow, puppy, sunshine, roses... I'm sure I'm forgetting some.  Those of you saying that anyone is requesting any of those things are setting up a ridiculous straw man.

I've got the perfect example of what playing ME3 will be like.

Imagine a bowl of your favorite food. It's prepared perfectly. It tastes better than anything you've ever had in your entire life. And then you find a dog turd at the bottom of the bowl.

Doesn't matter how great that food was, there was still a turd at the end of that meal.[/quote]
[/quote]


LMAO~ That's exactly how I feel about it!

Everyone focused on the Prothean DLC being day one like it was a big deal when it really wasn't. Should have focused on this ending issue.

Bioware should've taken notes on how to end a Protagonist's story from Bioshock, I'm not saying the end fight should've been TIM ordering Shepard to bludgeon him to death with a golf club (though I'm sure Bioware writers would've been more than happy to plagarize that). But there is a satisfactory way to end a series or kill a protagonist.

Perhaps. I didn't read the leaks until a week ago (and they all seemed to insinuate that Shepard dies in every ending). I thought it was a tad trite, but decent. For the people who read them when they were first disseminated, it might have been the same. Now that the final endings have broken, though, they seem worse than feared; most people are angry about the contrivance with the Normandy and the horrible implications associated with it.

I think.

I just think they should have gone with safe bioware endings. This was the wrong game series to do this in. It will break the hearts of long term fans and leave mainstream gamers wondering what the point was.

Hahahahaha....

Seriously, do you know how you sound to others? Denying ridiculous amounts of video evidence?

What, someone threw this together in an afternoon?
