The best we can hope for, in the vein of Fallout 3, is a "fix" DLC that ends the problem present here. That's why I made this thread. To warn people if it's a gamebreaker for them, and beyond that, to get change for this game's sake from BW if they want to throw their loyal fans a bone, rather than boning the fans.

   



Oh EA better spend some money and fix this . This is a load of horse S and garbage I will remember the F U you gace me Bioware for being a fan Mass Effect 2

The price...of surviving/defeating once and for all an extinction cycle that been happening for millions of years; a bittersweet ending.


In a fictional game that lets us pick our own endings.

OH WAIT NOW YOU CAN'T BECAUSE WE WANT TO FORCE SOMETHING ON YOU :D






I'm not saying "preorder canceled" but this royally sucks the fun out of the game for me. Everything about making our own destiny...down the drain. Fallout 3 all over again!


BioWare said the ending(s) would make some people upset. The Mass Effect series is a dark sci-fi series, the best you can expect for almost anything in it is bittersweet. I mean...each Mass Effect game had a heroic, yet bittersweet ending. The "happiest" one would be Mass Effect 1, and even then, you knew impending doom was coming.


All the characters we care about get stuck on a random planet and will all die or inbreed extensively. That's not bittersweet, that's sadistic.

Listen, we all know that there is a war going on and people will die, worlds will get destroyed, sacrifices will be made, etc etc, but really, is it too much to ask for a proper "happy" ending where Shepard survives and doesn't get separated from the others?
We've all invested so much time in this universe and the characters we've come to know and love (or hate) and now all of that is just getting blown out the window.
I understand they are trying to make things serious and dramatic and stuff, but in the end, it's a video game and most of us want to choice for a proper happy ending.
The endings we have now are just disappointing and disheartening, like, what's the point?

There is no surprise ending, the files have been mined. Unless it is well hidden, or a troll by bioware, the endings above are the only endings.

How about you jump to your conclusions on the ending once the game is released and not based on a script leak that is months old? Personally, bioWare would be shooting itself in the foot if there was no "happy" ending.

It should be difficult as heck to get, because you're fighting Reapers, not your kittens. If it's too easy to get (like "No one left behind, got it on my first run through") then it's pointless. Bittersweet? I would accept that.

Adds a replayability to it if you want your perfect ending. There has to be some consequences somewhere, this game is based on choices, options and morality. If you cut corners and expect the perfect ending, you're in for a surprise.

If there is no happy ending, I'm sure BioWare is expecting a trove of hate from the fans and maybe a huge drop in their profits because no one is going to keep buying their games if they emotionally invest players for 8+ years just to troll them. Would be a bad business move.

I need my happy ending, but I expect to work for it and I hope I'm not disapointed on how to obtain it. Even if I have to replay the damned game over and over and suffer through horrid heartbreak until I find the ending I'm happy with.

Just based on a script leak. Right.

 Just wait for the surprise ending, the one you get for beating New Game+. Maybe it will be...happier.


There is no NG+ ending

That's not months old though; look at the upload date. The N7 strategy guide (which I own) and people who have played/beat the Space Edition know there's really no happy endings, just bittersweet ones. Even the Perfect Ending is bittersweet to witness. The 7th surprise ending for beating New Game+ may be different though.

Most old script-leak info has been confirmed as legit, I don't see why they'd backslide on this one.

The point is.... there's new leak, which is less than day old. And according to this no there are NO happy endings, no matter how hard you try.

There's a surprise ending if you complete a New Game+. The official N7 strategy guide makes mention of it, alongside the other 6 endings.

Ships can still travel without Relays. Galactic trade would be impossible, but systems and small clusters would do okay.

Stranding the Normandy so they can found a new colony is terrible though imo. A disappointing sendoff for the characters.

You can't even sustain a gene pool with those numbers. They're doomed.

I'm fine with everything else in the endings - it makes sense that civilization should pay a massive price for freedom - but the bit about the Normandy crew being stranded and making a colony, away from Shepard as well, is a poor payoff for all the fans that have grown to love these characters over dozens of hours. The characters are one of the series' main draws.

I also don't want to think about the ugly, soul-destroying sexual bartering and coercion that would go on if they tried. They wouldn't become a new colony, they would become animals. Yuck.

I was prepared to be forced to see Shepard have to make the ultimate sacrifice to save the galaxy. I wouldn't have liked it but I was prepared for it. I was even prepared to see the Normandy and crew die, or Earth be a devastated ruin. I wasn't prepared for what they did to the galactic civilization.


The ending makes me feel like everything Shepard and co. did, all they sacrificed, was for nothing. These endings don't count as victory. It's just trading one horrible fate (the Reapers) for another one (the collapse of civilization)


Did you expect that anything less would stop a force that controled a cycle of galactic extinction for millenia? They BUILT Civilzation as everyone knew it and left it for people follow like rats to a trap. Of course ending them would mean losing what was made for us.

The file claims there are 7 endings, so the NG+ would probably be one of the ones we know about. Posisbly the 'merge' one.

The guide lies. The files have been mined. There's no secret ending.

Yeah... they pretty much did. The script at least was ambigious in what happens to Shepard and co.

But... the actual footage?

Not to mention that the aliens would die out. There is only one Turian, and one Quarian. They're doomed.

Liara could make more Asari, but it would be futile - they'd all starve eventually.

Priestly will probably lock this thread. But I hope all this "Shepard will die no matter what, or IF he lives, he will never see any of his partners again" is just misinformation.
For those who want a "bittersweet ending", that WOULD be fair enough if not at the cost of forcing the ones who want a "sugar with honey sweet" this bittersweet c*ap down their throaths.
I'll reserve judgement 'till the end of next week.
Just a tip to Bioware: displeasing 99% of your fans isn't a good way of making future profit.

No don't try to make excuses for a developer who has no idea on how tell a story let a lone claim to have made this a 3 game series . when in reality its 2 games and one huge side quest.. That is so worthless that us ME 2 fans get the biggest  F U from Bioware .. They get no free passes this time . Its time to call them out on the Bull S .

I'm still personally crossing my fingers and hoping the Bioware releases a day one patch with the REAL endings.

Apparently you "lie", the guy above you said so; the files said so. There's 6 default ones 1 surprise one for New Game+, but, the surprise one more than likely is revealed now because of file mining.
