"Different, memorable endings" they said.

"Not true" we said.
"Art" they say.
"Art" is not an ultimat shield answer to justify your opinion without giving argument to back your claim.
if the claim "choices matter and reflect in the ending" they could justify it without "art" excuses.
I think the best way to respond to the argument I've ever heard was in my college newspaper a few years back... "You can crap on a plate and call it art..."
certainly you have every right to crap on a plate and call it art... but you still crapped on a plate and people are most-likely going to be disgusted by it.
Michaelanglo stayed out of prisn by painting the Cistine Chapel. He painted what the church wanted. DaVinci Painted, designed and engineered for anyone willing to pay him, he stayed alive.. Degas, Renoir, most of the rest we know only because of paintings they were contracted to paint. The Realists, cubists, Modernists, all of them, except Van Gogh. He died a humble peasant.
Shakespear rewrote many of his plays several times to meet public expectations. So much so there are "still" debates and arguments going around as to which are real and which not. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, when faced with publick outrage at his killing Sherlock Holmes, rewrote that ending as well.. Thousands of times throughout history true artists have worked and reworked their creations to meet expectations. In fact, the only people who have never had to rework their creations are the myriads of little old rich ladies with no talent whatsoever plying away in the middle of their day drawing horrible daisies to foist on anyone that walks into their house.
In light of the realities presented by history, the claim that Mass Effect is art, simply does not hold up. It could have been had they listened to us without the hubris, but as it stands, Mass Effect, with its abominable ending, is little more than a fuchsia daisie painted on a puce background, and the artistic argument, holds no water at all..
