Thing is though, plenty of great heroes, from mythology, from religion, from fiction and from real life have died without their "crew" or their loved ones near, not knowing what happened to them.

Why should Shep be any different?


Don't tell the hardcore RPers that. They'll lynch you.

Because this is a video game. We already have real life to crush our dreams and depress us, why would anyone want their video game to do that?



Ahhhhh beat me to it;)

people here don't care if there's billions dead or if the galaxy is burnt like a spent candle they just want there wifey.


No, some just want a bright spot option in the aftermath of all that misery. Even a bittersweet ending, as long as it goes with a sign that the galaxy will rebuild stronger and better than before, even if it's going to be a hard road ahead.

Death and destruction on a galactic scale is bad enough for shock value. There was no need for the sh*tty endings only option just to prove that there were no "sunshine and rainbows" in the picture.

Why do people always want to act like a game with multiple branching possibilities can have one and only one ending?

Shepard should die alone in one of the endings. In another, he should not. Why is that request so hard to grasp?

Shepard is not a solitary hero. He has always been the leader of a team. To maroon that team in bumf** nowhere in every possible permutation of the ending is just not something I'm willing to have shot down my throat.

Stop with super happy ending crap already. That is not why people are angry but because the Normandy gets blasted to who knows where and relays always explode.

Plus certain party members die or races die depends on choice and billions die. I would not call that happy.


But you are the same person who at other times say there are no choices in this game and bioware forces evrything on us... Can you at least be consistent with your criticism?

Fact is, the galaxy WOULD, eventually, rebuild stronger. It would many centuries, even millenia, but with the Reapers gone, with the species of the galaxy no longer just quitting their own research and using the stuff that the precursor species/reapers had left behind, they could become stronger and better. They could come up with their own more advanced FTL technologies, maybe even make their own damn Mass Relays (the Protheans did, remember)...

How does the prothean come into play for the ending? I heard the DLC effects it.

K I should of worded that better what I mean is that their is no real choice for the endings because so are so alike. I just meant that so many people die in the game is their can be no true happy happy joy joy ending but these just are much the same that having different shepards does not matter because the endings just arent that different. Sorry for my wording hope this make more sense to you. :)

I would have found it acceptable if your LI joined you, even after insisting he/she doesn't.
I know it's cheesy but I'd rather not have the Forever Alone mug on Shepard.

Because at that time interactivity didn't existed in their writting process for their media.

How the hell there is only 1 ending? All endings have similar aspect to them but MANY things are diferent, Turian world vs Asari, Krogan vs Salarian, Geth vs Quarian, Cerberus vs Mercery groups, THERES TONS OF ****ING CHOICES IN THIS GAME... Just because 2 things things that always happens dosent means there are NO choices... is that complicated for you idiots? Or are too ****ing bitter to understand what bioware actually did with this game?

Take DAO for example, you had many choices but in the end its all about you vs the arch-demon that you have to defeat...

 I had the Idea that reaper tech makes us weaker some for using it. Rebuilding the mass relays would be the same thing, why start form sratch? Again I don't mind these ending, I don't like the space magic one but thats my opinion, I just wish they would have more and that would be different. or more different than now.

orly? How do you know this "fact"? I figured those species going extinct, the countless aliens stranded on Earth, and the trillions upon trillions of deaths, and the eradication of synthetic life all but defeated the notion of the galaxy being "stronger". Assuming the Destroy ending, at least.

It would many centuries, even millenia, but with the Reapers gone, with the species of the galaxy no longer just quitting their own research and using the stuff that the precursor species/reapers had left behind, they could become stronger and better.


You don't know how science or technology works, do you?

The protheans made 1 relay. A prototype. It was also 1-way, and only meant for "small" transportation.

Because this is a game which has been made popular by attachment to it's characters, not a literary masterpiece we are being forced to read for English class.  I fear what happened is they thought they'd try for the latter at expense of the former.  

All I know is the more you start hearing them try to defend this as "it's the journey not the destination", that admits the destination sucked balls.

Ya but you got to see the after math in DAO which I liked because It should what happened after you beat the game. In ME3 the end just happens and then nothing.

Not whining. I've got the ultimate truth, which is Mass effect is brilliant.

Question to all the people that are pro current endings/anti new endings.

Why are you so against getting ONE more ending to satisfy gamers that aren't happy with what's been leaked? Not taking away any of the current endings, just adding one. Why?

Why is so hard just to have few more endings. If you like the ones we have now thats fine. I would use some of them for different shepards but for game with so much choice why reduce in the final ending of the game?

If you bothered to actually reflect on the endings, you'd find massive loose ends...

1.  Normandy leaving the battle to go to Pluto?  Really?
2.  SPACE MAGIC turns everyone into cyborgs.
3.  Epilogue of the colony founded by normandy survivors plays... even if there are no normandy survivors.

There's some really spotty writing in these endings, they are very hackish.

Well, it IS somewhat loose, because the ending doesn't show how the people of the galaxy cope with the loss of technology and such. It just ends, either with Shepard getting up, or the crew of the Normandy looking at where they just crashlanded. Then, boom! Credits, and a little epilogue at the end that doesn't tell you anything.
