So people have found the flashback files for the VS and liara for the romances, but no one else?

Maybe... maybe the space edition isn't the full game..... Maybe retail copies have the full game.

The original pastebin spoilers that started this whole mess stated that there are no other flashbakc files. ME2 romances default back to Liara.

No, seriously.

Exactly. But you can't make twilight fangirls understand.


Actually it's you and your team against the Archdemon.


My argument is that those people need to admit that the only problem they have is that they cant be with their virtual Blue Waifu at the end and they decide bash many other aspects of the game that have nothing to do with it.

STOP saying this game gives no choices (it gives several)

STOP saying all the endings are the same (you can destroy all geth + EDI+all reapers, you can control the repears and send to dark space to call them back if AI ever takes control or you can change all systetic and organic life FOREVER)

STOP saying this game has a sad ending ( the galaxy is safe and now they can grow on their own)

STOP saying the tone of the series is grim dark (You can save all of the Normandy crew, you just cant be with                  them but everybody can be alive at the end, including sheppard)


The only real problem you people have with the ending is that the Normandy crew will be away from sheppard, admit it and criticise THAT aspect of the ending.


Shepard needs to get tips from this man. Hope you didn't shoot him:

Off topic: question for people who play this on the PC. What's the best place to buy and download this online? GameStop, amazon, or directly from bioware? I'm holding out hope for some kind of miracle ending. But in case it turns to balls buying it directly from bioware is my least favorite option.

Still why is it so hard to have one more ending, I don't get why some of you people just don't want other to have their bittersweet ending with a little bit more sweet in. It just seem like I got what I want but you cant have what you want. The only reason why even care is because its and rpg and I would like little better ending.

1. They're saying that the END GAME doesn't give choices.
2. All of them end up the same: Billions of people dead, normandy stranded, and mass relays shutting down, which is essentially the end of space travel.
3. End of mass relays mean many are stranded on whereever they are last. That means plenty will never see their families again, and also end of trade, which could result in mass famines. Not to mention that half of the time, your crew is pretty much left for death/generations of inbreeding.
4. The tone of the endings are most definitely grimdark.

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?

They could come up with their own more advanced FTL technologies, maybe even make their own damn Mass Relays (the Protheans did, remember)...


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


That is clearly the mentality of someone who only wants to see the bad side of things, Do you really think Bioware will just make everyone die of starvation or lack of transport after the defeat of the reapers? Srsly ill lose all my faith in you intelectual capacity if you really think that even the worst story teller would do that... 

Of course the galaxy will survive and continue to work for a better future, the reason why the relays are always destroyed is because they need to grow on their own efforts and not by abusing the reaper tech that made the Relays


"Abusing" the Reaper tech?

Why do you think interplanetary travel is as easy as it is now?

Not every piece of technology in ME is traced back to the Reapers. Aside from the Relays, the Citadel, and Eezo (Unless that was retconned), the Reapers didn't really influence us THAT much. You'll notice that pretty much every species is somewhere different on the technological scale, with the salarians and asari probably topping it.


Perfect, so you agree with me that the galaxy isn't ****ed forever. There will be growth, it will be hard but now the galatic comunnity can grow on its own achievments, they might make new relays or discover new methods of fast travel. How is that a bad ending? Imo its a really good one, i prefer independence and self determination over being slaves of alien technology (just like Liara's father, the wisest asari ever):wizard:

Doubt it. Why would they make a "special" version of the game? I doubt EA really cares about spoilers. 


All it would take is to take a normal case and burn some disks with some stuff removed. 

I keep clinging onto these little hopes in my head and it is stupid i know. It is just that i've been waiting for this game for so long to have a nice ending. There isn't much replay value for me if all the endings are of shep dying and not being with who she loves.  

I just kept telling myself i just hand to keep working a little longer, keep trying a little longer, i'm almost there i can do it.  I'm in recovery for ED and playing the mass effect series was something I always fell into when I was struggling badly. If i had a rough therapy session or hated my body or wanted to do food behavior I would just pick up the game. If i was having a really hard time I would do a full 1 and 2 playthrough. When I was in assisted living for women with ED I would ALWAYS be playing mass effect. Sometimes other games, but usually mass effect. 

It was just a good way to forget how awful I was feeling, and play as someone who could actually do things right. And if I worked hard enough, get the perfect ending. I actually felt like a strong person. 

I guess i just got too emotionally invested in this series and I shouldn't have. I just thought since througout the series you always had a choice in living or dying or saving who you care about, you would get that in me3. I just wanted shep to be with the people he/she cares about and I though that there had to be an ending like that because the rest of the series has been hinting at it forever. I shouldn't have gotten my hopes up or even wanted something like that. Whenever i want something i know i'm not allowed to have it, that is how it is.

again with the whole the galaxy needs to grow on its own it fine by why does that have to be for all endings. If the release an MMO where the galaxy is destroyed and after expansion the galaxy becomes rebuild that be even worse.

Anyway, I'm leaving until something else is released. Like, you know, the Game, or at least the iOS apps. I'm not making any judgements on the endings until I've played through and seen them in context. I'm just saying, give them a chance and think of the possibilities.

Firstly, again - the previous games set up that the Protheans could be beaten without the Magic Prothean space gun. They are not gods, and after we had the reaper gun tech from the wreckage of the citadel as well as better armor and shield tech we should be able to defeat them with armies and not space magic press button 1-3 for what color do you want to screw the pooch with.

Second Dragon Age Origins gave 4 endings: Dark Ritual, Alistair dies, You die, Loghain Dies. 4. Note that in 3 of the 4 you live. Not only that but all your party lives (except the one who dies and there was a way out of that). So to compare the 4 options you get in Dragon Age to the 1 option with 3 colors you get in ME3 you are in essence telling me that the ME team is not nearly as talented as the DA team was.

ME 1 and ME 2 stated that it took YEARS for the Reapers to cleanse the galaxy last cycle. Decades. They have to go 1 system at a time. We could very well have won without screwing all technology for centuries. Mass Relays were working - massive armada was good to go, Reaper tech guns (thanks Turians), etc. and the final battle SHOULD have been an epic space fleet war and not pick button 1 2 or 3. Shepard could have flown an interceptor ship with a Reaper Tech cannon. We could have had some awesome space fighting, even going into a RTS mode to direct fleet combat. When it was over we could have surrounded earth and finished off the reapers still on planet.

The ground assault could have been a great moral choice of
"Bombard the planet from orbit, kill all the reapers"
"But sir, that is earth"
"Yes, and we are fighting for the galaxy... begin firing."

BUT no, we get press button 1 2 or 3.


Yep, that's what I was expecting. Real wars are won through cunning use of  resources, people, stragedy and technology. Not a 'Deus Ex Machina' weapon.

How is it only 10gb? Both Xbox discs are like 7gb each, maybe both discs have multiple missions on it or something.

I just don't want my Shepard to die alone.
The RGB endings are kind of silly. That's more like multiple colours than multiple endings.


As i said in another post, surviving must carry as much meaning as sacrifice. Showing Shep survive to let belive s/he will die latter alone make no sens as dying in battle would have spared him/her much suffer.

It's my interpretation and i'll wait to see the ending before i make my opinion if it is how i presume or not.

If you look back at ME1 ending, peoples get different interpretation of the same ending:
I belive Sovereign get destroyed because killing Saren under sovereign direct control cause the reaper to be "offline", his shield get down, he falls from the tower and the alliance inflict the final blow. It's the only event that could explain why sovereign get from indestructibale killing machine from innactive all of a sudden and the timing is matching saren controled death.
For the same ending, some people belive it's because the bug bite attaque worked and it's just a coincidence that saren get killed at that time.

So, out of context i intertpret surviving Shep and crew member getting rescued / recovered later (even if it's not showed in the ending) because it's the primary meaning of their known survival, not lonelyness for ever and starving to death on a lost word.
But i would need to see it, their faces, the musique and all details to know if it can match my assuption.

Independent advancement is going to be PRETTY hard without the ability to quickly travel to other star systems.

"Slave to alien technology"? What? Do you know how common it is today for someone to use a product or appliance made from a foreign country? Just because you're using something made from someone else doesn't mean you can't think for yourself, it just means that someone else beat you to it. Only an idiot would try to beat themselves up by ignoring beneficial technologies developed by another race/species.

these are 3 EXTREMELY important choices. Their only problem is that you cant chose to save the normandy. Trust me if bioware ever makes a DLC or secret ending where the crew escapes the vortex this tread will die immediately (there are already people begging to give bioware money for a new ending dlc, its all about the virtual blue waifu)

Sashimi, it's going to be okay.

The game will be quite epic. The characters will be as awesome as ever.

And plus, I do really like grimdark, but I don't like how they make it the only ending possible. There should be other endings, depending on the choices you make.

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?

Because I'm playing Commander Shepard, not Odysseus and because the only Homer Bioware can relate to is Simpson.

1. The control endings are supposedly the worst. I do believe you die in all of them anyway. And that doesn't change the fact that the overall result is the same.

2. What could they mean for the future of the galaxy? For what it seems, that's dark too. It'll take hundreds, maybe thousands of years to figure out intergalactic space travel without use of the relays, which is how everyone traveled in the first place. Again, trade and transport is still cut off. So there will still be famines. MANY will die before even seeing space travel again. Entire races will die out.

3. The end of galactic civilization IS grimdark. That's a fact.

Fact is, the galaxy WOULD, eventually, rebuild stronger.


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?

They could come up with their own more advanced FTL technologies, maybe even make their own damn Mass Relays (the Protheans did, remember)...


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


That is clearly the mentality of someone who only wants to see the bad side of things, Do you really think Bioware will just make everyone die of starvation or lack of transport after the defeat of the reapers? Srsly ill lose all my faith in you intelectual capacity if you really think that even the worst story teller would do that... 

Of course the galaxy will survive and continue to work for a better future, the reason why the relays are always destroyed is because they need to grow on their own efforts and not by abusing the reaper tech that made the Relays


"Abusing" the Reaper tech?

Why do you think interplanetary travel is as easy as it is now?

Not every piece of technology in ME is traced back to the Reapers. Aside from the Relays, the Citadel, and Eezo (Unless that was retconned), the Reapers didn't really influence us THAT much. You'll notice that pretty much every species is somewhere different on the technological scale, with the salarians and asari probably topping it.


Perfect, so you agree with me that the galaxy isn't ****ed forever. There will be growth, it will be hard but now the galatic comunnity can grow on its own achievments, they might make new relays or discover new methods of fast travel. How is that a bad ending? Imo its a really good one, i prefer independence and self determination over being slaves of alien technology (just like Liara's father, the wisest asari ever):wizard:


I dont think lots of people get this. They want status quo, they want the things to stay as they were, stagnant galaxy abusing someone elses tech forever, no innovation of their own. Stupidest are the people who thing that spaceflight is out of the picture forever. It isnt. Species can look to their own paths now, at their own pace. The mass relays were a symbol of thralldom to the reapers and their tech. No we have a chance to make our own paths.
