Lost..? Lost?? after the ME3 ending you subject yourself to Lost????

You poor thing :(




Lol joking about lost, Have been watching through the sopranos since before mass effect 3 came out, aware ending is possibly controversial, but I am sure Tony won't end up destroying the Galaxy let alone the state of new jersey....

Complete flowchart of possible endings depending on choices in game.
 


Yup i actually like some of them choices there.......... and that's only the choices from ME3 wonder how big that flow chart would be if you added ME1 and ME2 stuff into there as well?

Yeah... I'm sorry but this guy's ego-trip is getting to my nerves.

I'm glad they closed that thread. It only served to paint Bioware as an enemy. I'm firm in asking for a better ending, one that doesn't commit storytelling atrocities, but I'm won't agree with this kind of behaviour.

Bioware gave us many games we all loved and ultimately made a mistake with the ending of ME3, that doesn't make them Sauron...

Hold the line.


So you know, Sauron was one of the good guys once. Until he was corrupted by Morgoth...

/Salute


That's exactly my point. Making a bad ending hardly compares to being corrupted by the source of all evil.

We want to be taken seriously and this doesn't help. Sorry, but we are argueing for them to provide an ending that is on par with the quality of their past work. That's it. Anything more than this is childish and rude.

I'm holding the line as long as it takes, but I'm starting to fear some people are taking these military metaphors way too far.

Lost was fine. I dont understand the hate for it. We got closure of all the characters and it was about their lives on the island. At least Jacob didn't tell jack to walk in one of three caves :)

Good, something to take your mind off it. I practically watched Shrek several times.

Thanks, but to keep things on topic I will now talk about how the themes of the ending were totaly opposed to the core values of the series and the motivations of the main villans were convoluted by the inclusion of...

People on the now closed PR thread told me to post about it when I made my playthrough commentary videos of the ending, intended to reach my Youtube subscribers, so now I'm posting it here in case anyone's interested in watching them. Note that there's nothing new in it, really: part 1, part 2.

Since it's too hard to try and backtrack and find all the posts with these links, I'm just going to mass them together and say: these are so funny!! I think we can all use a laugh after this tense forum day, so thanks to the people who originally posted these:

Literal ME3 trailer: (I cried from laughing)

ME3 Animal House style ending: (and yes, it would have been better than what we got)

Hold the line! :D

Endings like that would be awesome.


What a lovely flow chart (you don't get the opportunity to say that often)!  That would have been so much better than what we got... :pinched:


Can we email that to Bioware? At least they would know how to write the perfect endings..

70% now.

Never in the field of, errm, gaming has so much been owed by so many to so few.

I'm talking of course about Forbes magazine. Those guys have won my deep respect and (totally non-creepy) affection. This is journalism at its best. Facual, impartial (they have no axe to grind either way beyond pointing out good business practices), well reasoned, well researched and a joy to read. How can you not love them?

I was able to complete it yesterday before sleep after all, so here it is - episode 10. ;) Next one will be probably at the end of the weekend, maybe on Monday, maybe sooner - depending on a gazillion badijibillion little things.

Marauder Shields: Shepard's Last Foe
EPISODE 10: Spectres

In this episode... We pay a quick visit to the Citadel, as the first pieces of the new ending start falling into place. I'd suggest playing "The New Earth" by Audiomachine in the background to get the full feel of this episode.

Open the full version here: http://i.imgur.com/xMkyQ.jpg

If you have any problems viewing the full version, find it at my DA profile, here: http://koobismo.deviantart.com - if you like any of my comics, be sure to come along and say "hi", share your thoughts, opinions, ideas.
