I pre-ordered the game since (hell i cant even remember), and i still remember foaming at the mouth thinking bout playing it. I grab it, load it, throw in my saves from ME2, which i saved all the way from ME1, back like 3 computers ago. Hell i still have the save games on my old 256mb flash drive.

I begin to play ME3 and fall in love with it all over again. Even though i start off *fresh* yet again, and my squadmates from ME2 (who i have to admit, i have became very attached too) have all went their seperate ways. I continue playing and meet up with them again along the way, and for every mission the game just gets more and more bad ass. Things as epic as the Threasher Maw kicking the reapers butt, to the friendly bottle shooting between shep and garrus. Almost every single mission had the feeling of weight. Weight that made me continue to look forward to what i thought would be a epic ending.

I fixed the Genophage, fixed tensions between Krogan and Turians, fixed tensions between geth and quarian, saved the rachni queen, and damn if i didnt feel epic. Rolled into the sol system with a fleet of epic scale and began what i knew was the final mission. Saw the cinematic and thought "Hell yes, this is gonna be one hell of a fight!"

*and* that is where the game completly friggin derailed for me.

I land on Earth and see the state it was in (like i expected it would be) and continue the final push. I go to the comms officer and began saying goodbye to all my companions that ive fell in love with along the way. All the while im beginning to feel the unnerving sense of dread. (I figured that was the awesome story writing building me to a cool *hero* climax. Boy was i wrong) But i trudge on. Then i get to the big pillar of light and begin my decent into what would be the final confrontation. But wait i get hit by a giant friggin laser beam....OK...cutscene...wait WTF....Im Commander Friggin Shepard and i got hit by a giant laser beam....i should have zigged, instead of zagged? WTF? Now for the next 5 mins i *slow* walk to my new destination trying to get to Anderson (Who somehow, someway got to the pillar too? O...K.... Where the hell is my team?). I get to my destination and play through...

Which leads me to my derailment. What in the holy hell were you people thinking with these endings. Its like you put all this effort into the last installment, all these upgrades to combat, and making everything seem more fluid, to just shrug your arms and say "Meh" to the ending. The only difference between the cutscenes is COLOR for god sakes. Red, Blue, and Neon friggin green. Awesome. I spend all these hours on ME1, and ME2 just to friggin die in 3 ridiculous ways. All those choices...for what? To see the epic normandy crash land on some jungle planet with a obvious bird infestation?

I could go on and on...like the massive fleet you rolled in with. It would have been more epic to get some more facetime with the fleet and what was happening. Specially when the crucible warped in, but no. It just gets there. No cool fleet manuevers, no nothing...just talking to a glowing kid that has the "keys" to the Galaxy. *sigh*

Overall im so disappointed i cant think straight. Hell right after i beat the game i reloaded my last save right next to the super beam and went though all that slow walking crap again just to see if it changed. Two more friggin times. Low and behold....No pass Go...no collect 200 dollars. Im just boned...along with the Galaxy.

Nice to see all those choices of making my Shepard into the good biotic charging badass he was getting reduced to a different colored explosion, and the galaxy getting screwed in the process. Ridiculous.

But i understand this all my opinion, and to be honest i dont really care what people think of this. I really wrote this to release some tension anyway. Release some tension on a game that i thought was gonna be one hell of a ride. Instead the ride stopped just on top of the loop to loop and now everyone is dead because they fell off. Woo Friggin Hoo.

So so sad.

Damn, I couldn't have said it better myself. I really really understand how you feel. 

i hear yall this was a crapfest ending so pissed at the moment

[Mr. Big Pimpin]

Throwing in my support for hating the endings. I don't think I've ever been so disappointed with a work of fiction before in my life.

This makes the ending of the Matrix trilogy look good.

I have to throw my two cents in as well. I knew this one was going to be darker than either of the first two installments - I was almost in tears as.....

SPOILER ALERT



Mordin went up the tower to certain death and then perished. But the ending was such a downer. No point or purpose to all the "work" I did on the character - a complete kick in the face to all of us who really cared about the story and characters.

It's just damn depressing.

[Xellith]

I worked hard following the paragon path through ME1 through ME2 and all the way to the end game of ME3. Many others also did. We all took different paths to get to the end. We DESERVE an ending worthy of our hard work. Bioware just commited suicide with this game. No way the vast majority of people are going to trust them again after this. I know I wont.

I WANT MY SUGAR AND RAINBOWS DAMMIT.

I’m not sure I’m going to play this crap now.

Same problem here. I finished ME 1 twice, ME 2  two or three times. And in ME 3 I only saw how it ended for my wife and I just don't see the reason to 'take back earth'. That is one of the worst game ending in video games.

I would even say this IS the worst game ending in the history of video games.

Agreed, I expected an insanely tough story, but a magnificent ending if I did it right!!  Instead we're forced into the ending of a trilogy that makes you want to slit your wrists - not jump for joy that poor Shep finally made it.

Never thought I'd say that, to be honest. But since The Matrix Revolutions didn't end with Morpheus getting teleported to Planet Random, it clearly is superior.

Everything was perfect...until I completed the game....

My emotional roller coaster was so fulfilling until then that I practically felt giddy by the writing and storytelling. My shepard’s name is Cheryl and she as like of all of our characters has been through hell and back. She died, came back, lost the trust of her friends and started to use a terroristic group for their resources for the good of the galaxy. When did it become her job to babysit the galaxy, play peacekeeper and protector? She lost so many people during the suicide mission but I pushed her on in hope that there where better days ahead. The reapers were coming. How did it fall to her to make the tough decisions?

I started Me3 and I knew everything was different the moment I played. The looming threat in the background, the constant pressure trying to unite the races to help earth was all so very real, trying to play the stupid game of “I scratch your back, you scratch mine”, that large wall of names she lost over the years. Everything for me got real then. I knew then it was all on her to make a difference to finally bring some sort of peace to a galaxy in unrest. Then more loss came, the loss of thane, tali, mordin. She even almost loss Kaidan her only love since the beginning like 2 hours into the game but ultimately got a chance to start something so special that she thought she lost.
The emotion felt through the game was mind blowing. Shepard’s frustration, the loss, the grief, her doubt... Everything was stacking on her mentally and physically but I pushed her forward to the final battle. We were going to end this once and for all.

I beat the game. I had braced myself for Sheps death way before I purchased the game but I also prayed for an option to have at least one of my sheps make it through to return home to find some peace with their loved ones. I wanted Shepard to FINALLY find some closure… something. I ended the game mouth hanging open and my heart empty. Cheryl didn’t deserve anything like that. I feel like it cheapened everything she had accomplished. She was a hero to me watching her story unfold over the years and she deserved better than that. I’ve seen someone’s sig that said “Life sucks then you die” that is exactly what this game turned out to be. What happened to all of the hope, all of the dreams, making tomorrow brighter?

Neither ending was good. You’ve doomed all organics to merge with synthetics? Why did mordin sacrifice himself so that krogan babies can be born? Why did I give a chance to the geth to run their own future and find peace? Why did I do all these things just to neglect all the loss and sacrifice of the people that help put Shepard where she was?

“Shepard has become a legend”… No **** Sherlock you don’t need some irrelevant old guy and some kid speaking of old tales to know that. I have supported everything Mass Effect for years now. I invested so much into these games. I have four Shepards. I have mass effect art books, N7 Hoodie, collecter's edition ME3, EVERY DLC (ME1-ME2). I feel like all that was a waste.
I cannot believe those ending options. I never wanted only happiness and sunshine but something more happier than screwed up galaxy that comes in three flavors. I’m heartbroken and I cannot pick up any more play-throughs, even for my romantic interests saves. What for? There is no point. They will never have a chance to have the romance fully fulfilled or be together. The ending is final and the galaxy was doomed before we even started Me3. The choices, the war assets, the broken promises, the alliances between the races it all didn’t matter. I am ruined and a bit scarred. I will never reserve anything collector’s edition again. I will not ever preorder anything bioware. I’m serious and It sucks because I’ve even cut off square-enix since FFXII with all their new bull****. But that is a whole different story.

The ending, the conclusion is everything to me. I judge this way by books, movies and games. I read on the forums earlier someone said “if the destination is somewhere you don't want to be, the journey doesn't matter.”
I’m done.

Dear God, so many bad memories flooding in now...

[Takibanazaki]

 I think there is one general buisness oversight here, wich probably would have sold more DLC, than anything with 2:
Make just one ending, no fanciness, Sheppard gets picked up on earth by the normandy, with ingame graphics, should not be that big/hard, but make it almost impossible, with everything needed to be maxed, and having to play NG+ Insanity, for an added points to assets and readyness, for being able to get it.

When DLC comes around: Add missions wich add more war assets, making it easier, to obtain.

People want their Shepard and friends, or at least friends safe, this would have made a lot of money for Bioware / EA, and would not mess up the artistic direction, since it would be more of an easter-egg, than canon.

Or at least this is what I think...

This is wrong, even if bioware didn't want a "Happy ending" Shepard to be canon, they should have made it an option. Even if bioware did not choose it as canon, people can view it as canon and Shepard, Li and crew can finally get the closure and happiness they deserve.

this is the end of shep's story, so there should really be no difference if there's a good ending....they'll make a choice no matter what for the next game as to what the default ending to it was, so like you say, there's no downside to adding it in there.....


that said, give me a dlc where my folks that are stranded with the normandy get it running again and go nab shep and take him back to earth or the citadel or something, and i'm good...

[BooMorpheus]

Ending was absolutely depressing, especially when the rest of the game was near-perfect.
Immediately after the ending, my heart sank and i went "Huh.......? Really?" Followed by internet scouring of alternative endings where Shepard and Li lives happily ever after, and/or die in a massive nuclear citadel explosion after a last embrace.

Just......something else, something better.

[mulder1199]

i'm giving it a bit, about a week, before i write EA an email, detailing all of their games i've purchased (it's a lengthy list) and how this will be the last one that i do until there's a decent end for ME4.....if they hear this en mass our chances improve...

I did that too. I hoped maybe if you had enough War Assets then maybe the relays wouldn't blow up or something like that.

But nope.

[Nayt Navare]

I won't say how many out of professionalism, but we've had a bunch of pre order cancellations and a few trade ins here at my store. Much more than usual, and due to the endings. I've been keeping track.

[Vajraja]

I never expected depression to be the emotion I would be left with after playing ME3. It was a great story until that point with many highs and lows - but just plain wow. Did not need to be feeling this way in the middle of my week. Kind of at a loss for words.

[Lostar]

Wow glad to see im not the only one who loved the game until the ending. For me it didnt even feel like mass effect anymore, like someone else made the ending and threw it in there. Just felt like an entirely different game once i went into the beam.

[Denethar]

Have finished the game for close to two days now and still feel like I'm getting trolled from the beam part and forwards. The walking part combined with the slow motion shooting felt like CoD4 when I attempt to walk with an injured char. The choices was Deus Ex. The tropical jungle was Lost. The conversation felt like Terminator 3. I still have no idea why Mass effect 3 ended and I got to play "Reference other media" for the last 10 mins.

So depressed...75+ of the best hours I've had in gaming followed by the most gut wrenching ending possible.

They've probably noticed. But what can they really say? It'll be just more ****storm unless they come out and say the endings are a bug and the patch is going out in 5 minutes.

The next Shadow Broker is currently taking over the office, give it time and everything should return to normal.


that being said... they most likely dont know what to say.
