I liked how they did the balanced reporting thing and mentioned the "Keep ME3" facebook group, which now has 211 members....

A lot of people have said its ruined the franchise and stopped you gaming for however many days. I'm wondering what else are you doing with your time apart from F5ing the threads?

Are you still gaming?
Or reading books more?
Or focusing on work?

I just want to see how people are coping with it?


Translating ME3 into Korean... Thanks to BW not to make Korean version 'cause It's a good way for me to balance on "not going to play it through again but  reminding me of how angry the ending made me. " Besides, I know a lot of Korean have postponed to play ME 3 waiting for it. Luckly it's almost done. Soon they'll join forces ^^.

Hold the line!

Someone just posted this on the facebook page and I thought it was too funny not to share:

The Hitchhikers Guide has this to say on the subject of the Mass Effect 3 ending:

The argument goes something like this: “Synthetics will always kill organics, and so I created a race of synthetics to kill all organics, to stop organics being killed by synthetics” says the God child “But,” says the player, “The differences between the Geth and Quarians have been reconciled and I myself have myself had my life saved on more than one occasion by a synthetic, and thereby the only synthetics trying to kill organics are you and the reapers.” “Oh dear,” says the God child, “I hadn’t thought of that and promptly vanishes in a puff of logic.”

That was easy said the player, who then went on to prove that red is green, and that green is blue, and thus was killed in the exact same way as everybody else….


Hah! :lol:

Man, these endings are just a goldmine for comedy, aren't they? In a sad "it's funny because it's true" sort of way.

Hmm been talking to my best friend and as I mentioned before she isn't a gamer but even she gets that the ending sucked and there should have been alternate endings her precise words:

"it's good it's getting on the news, and could def change it, I mean I get the whole sacrafice thing but the fact is they should have alternate endings."

I do feel kind of sad when I think about how much damage this is doing to Mass effect, but the most depressing part is that with some communication from Bioware it could have been solved already. Bioware 5 years ago would never had let it come to this...very sad.

No problem camarade, it's just that... you now, I was just finishing the game and, well I do not now how to tell it, I dislike this end wheras I really love the Mass Effect series, that makes me so angry.


Soldier... try to not be angry.
Rage won't help you within this battle. Rage won't help you holding a line or try to survive until bioware says something. You need to cool down and think that "battling" for ME3 Ends will give your support to the game you've loved so much. And rage / angry won't be exact. A better feeling is sad / emptyness about the end, or so is what i were feeling about that. ;)

Yes you're right, I will take a ME break and have a drink :D
