I don't need a true happy end, I need at least shepard alive and with his LI in one ending. Seriously, that is really basic. How the hell that couldn't be possible ?

Who the **** thought it could be a great idea ? this is an rpg for the love of god. How about you guys let people decide if their end can be pursued in fanfictions, in their imagination after YOUR story.... ? ( yeah " your ", since it seems less mine )

Okay then. If an NDA isn't binding, why hasn't anyone with a copy of the game making videos or taking screenshots of them playing the game and plastering them ALL over the internet?



because if i were smart, not saying BW is smart , no solid evidence of that, i would superimpose a small number in every frame so i could identify video. That way any leaks would have to be word of mouth, and allow me deniabilty until you buy my game and find out for yourself.

Someone a few pages back. (Sorry, I can't find him) that mentioned by way of rebutting the alleged leaks the the leaked German review suggests a satifying ending that players will be happy with.

I have to take that with a grain of salt since we all know it's a German reviewer and we all know Germans are stolid and depressing. ;)



Hey, I'm german and I'm not depressed :D But these ME3 endings make me depressing...

still want a true Happy end :unsure:


Wow you took the words right out of my mouth and 2nd it for semi happy ending.

Don't you understand that this franchise was never about hard choices, consequences, or the agonies a race a sentient machines who wipe out all life in the galaxy can cause! It was about riding off into the sunset with your virtual waifu/husbando.

To ruin that is to ruin the franchise!


Funny, because as has already been proven and confirmed, there are choices and consequences.  Funny that, huh?

Forgetting pragmatic perspectives, it's a noble and virtuous act. Well If you don't want to be emperor of the galaxy, It's acceptable to be sacrificed to win the ultimate war. ... And you shall be praised as a deity! :innocent:

They don't matter.

Husbando/waifu is all that matters!

Perhaps I am misunderstand what others are saying, but it isn't that NDA's aren't binding. It is just that they can be rather hard to enforce. Besides, as I stated earlier, the fact that an individual signed a legally binding agreement doesn't mean that people won't violate it. If that were the case, no one would ever break legally binding contracts and people wouldn't break laws, both of which we know do actually happen.

It doesn't have to be a sunset ending. You destroy the relays, you've screwed the galaxy, you are left stranded on a planet with the rest of your crew. There's your consequence for not being all sacrificial. There are ways to still give the player consequences and yet still have an ending where everyone is together.

I think that's my biggest problem. That the love interest or your best friends are once again leaving you to do it alone and be the big awesome hero. How about an ending where you die together even? Just something different than the cliched 'hero stands alone' bull****.

Besides pointing that you missed sarcasm here, it´s not looking like choices matter. LI? doesn´t matter who it is because you won´t end with them. Different races? Isolated for centuries (I was picking destroy anyway but I guess other people aren´t happy about it), so the impact of choices is going to be far less than expected, ...

Enough ratzer, just because youre butthurt that you wont have Liara (or whoever you LI is), dosent mean the franchise was "napalmed". Stop being butthurt and realize ALOT of people apreciate the ending for this game

Which is exactly why we care so much about non-romanceable characters like Mordin and Wrex, right? It's about ALL the characters who helped define this game. That is what makes this one so special. So many characters so heavily fleshed out...people want the OPTION of a happy ending for them, and for Shepard, to rest easy.

The whole series was about positivism overcoming determinism. That no matter WHAT anyone tried to impose on a person, on relationships, etc., you could stick it to the authority in the biggest way imaginable.

People aren't saying all the endings need to be happy. But they DO want the option of having one.

EDIT: Nevermind, I see what you were saying. I didn't see the context (who you were responding to) at first.

Agreement. If you were with your crew and died or were stranded forever with them it would be fine.

Have fun drinking your paragade when your Shepard gets blown up/vaporized/isolated from everyone else and the Normandy crew decides to eat Tali and her chicken feet with a side of Liara's Blueberry waffle on that planet the crash on <3

I will laugh if all the endings are Shepard dying alone on a barren planet with only Conrad Verner to keep him company. Perfect end to this series.

Compared to what we are getting, that doesn't seem that bad at this point.

I'm also getting a big BSG vibe from these endings. The loss of technology, stranded on a distant world, having to start over again, organic and synthetic merging...

Well after thinking through everything... I have to withdraw my previous opinion and actually say that if there's no happy ending, only bittersweet it's quite a kickass thing... quite unique... and fits perfectly to the lore that you have to pay the price for stopping a race that cannot be stopped throughout the previous cycles... anyway, I won't spoil my fun any further, looking forward to playing the game :)

The joke's on the Taliphages.  After they eat her (and Garrus, presumably) they die from dextro-amino poisoning.

Yet oddly it was better handled in BSG, which is a freaking shock since that ending blew.

The best ending should have had the galaxy be bruised, battered, broken but still alive
However, this seems more the Galaxy is crippled and then goes into a coma
Are future Mass Effect games even possible unless set in the past?
