So we can't get the ending we want after all?

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.
did you hear? Shep CAN survive, you have to play well.

That's the real reason this is such a big deal to me. Many of us have spent 5-6 years getting attached to these characters, the places and lore. If it were a single game that we spent a week with, it wouldn't hit nearly as hard as this does (the earlier mentions of RDR come to mind here). Essentially, we've been told all these years that these characters, these places are what we're fighting for, this civilization... and now, it's all gone. The Mass Effect universe as we know it ceases to exist. If that is not the very definition of sad, I don't know what is.Crimsanity wrote...

Am I really the only one here who thinks the game attached to the ending is just a LITTLE more important than those last few minutes of non-interactive cutscene?
Nah. It's just that this is the way Shepard's entire saga ends, so there's ~six years riding on it. The destination's more important than it would be if this game was a standalone.
Edited to add: If that is indeed not the case, which I very much hope it is not, then I'll be jumping for joy that this was all a big mistake.
I'm with you on this 110%. When I read the first post on this topic, I had a mini panic-attack. I'm very much so, emotionally involved in this game, I care alot of the characters and Sheperd, and to think that we've spent all this time with the characters, through ME 1, and 2, and then for everything to be destroyed in the end and have those same characters dumped on some bfe planet, while we will be left with no idea whatsoever concerning their fates.... Just sayin, if that's how it all really ends, and going to have some choice words to send to bioware, and that's putting it mildly.
This isn't the end of Mass Effect.. it's simply a reset on the branches.. You'd end up with a 120GB 200 million dollar, 5 hour game, without a reset in the branches.
It is beter to of loved and lost then to have never loved at all. It was a 3 part deal, as in go back to start. I have lots of time invested in the series and I want goodbye to hurt... If it doesn't hurt, it wasn't worth my time.

And he was talking about true love cut short through no fault of either party.

I still only see two (and potentially one) ending in these links. Normandy getting destroyed and the "red London" video could very well be the same ending. The blue London video has no context as it's clearly in the middle of a cut scene. Not even sure what to make of the video of Tali leading her troops. That could be at the beginning of the battle for all we know.
And in all 175+ pages I still have yet to find a link to a video, or even a picture, of the Normandy crew being stranded.
I'm not calling BS on anything. Some of the videos are matching up with the leaked script, but there is still a lack of context for a lot of the videos, and no evidence of the Normandy being stranded outside of heresy.
Again, I would really just suggest a wait and see approach.
i thought the other london was green because green is synergy as in the merge ending and blue is the control ending and im not implying that your calling bs ik theres lack of context im finding the epilouge of the old man and his son on the planet i saw the video but i dont have the link in my histroy its probboly in my favs so ill check that

That may be true... While I find it funny that even through all the choices made they are ending it on a depressive note.

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.
I will not deny that the ending is an appropriate one but it should be a choice, among other endings. Everyone shouldn't have the same considering everyone took very different steps to get there. Honestly, I don't think it will pay off. The game isn't even out yet and people are already up in arms, many long term fans. It may have paid off if their other titles(DA2) hadn't left their base with a sour taste in their mouths.

welcome to BSN, where the illogical cry over something they have no full context over.......basing their opinions off limited videos with no sound and thinking that the ending even has to be depressing which may sound that way wiothout context but could in fact be the opposite.
Hell, what if they played hopeful music during the ending? Nevermind the fact that music can set a scene's tone.
Nevermind the beautiful looking epilogue either......which doesn't seem downer at all.

That's a valid explanation. We still don't get to see the videos in the context of what happens after, as in, these videos aren't showing the explosion and then what happens to the Normandy crew subsequently. And that might not be possible because there's in-game action in between those cut scenes. But I think that's the issue some posters have with the evidence we are being provided with. These videos are unfinished clips in larger cutscenes. Those videos that I'm quoting anyway.
My biggest issue is still with the Normandy crew being stranded. There's been absolutely no visual evidence of it as of yet, so that's what I'm waiting on. And I really hope it never shows up, because I too will find that to be a bleak ending for even my heartless self.
Edited because I cannot spell.
