I can't help but wonder if a 4th option was left on the cutting room floor. Seems almost logical to assume the Crucible+Citadel could have been used as a weapon via the mass relays to kill the reapers across the galaxy. Without destroying the relays (Re: that subject, I still don't see why the reapers were not guarding the relays...)

And in place of the god-kid, it should have been Harbinger in some form. Of which you'd have to kill or use in some form to activate the Crucible's powers.

The 4th ending should be the stupid all knowing god kid, sees you've gotten quarians and geth to coexist thus making his whole stupid synthetics will destroy everything philosophy obsolete and you only have those 3 crap endings if you had to kill the quarians or the geth or you paragon dialog spam him about what how you did it and what you've done to make him change his mind.

Not that I know of.

Any response will only come next week.

With any luck the cascade of dissastisfcation will swamp all the other language forums and make it even harder for them to ignore.

Has anyone suggested a method of affecting their bottomline to force a response? Someone told me something along the lines that Gamestop was taking back copies of the game?

If you have SWTOR subscriptions then cancel em and tell em why in the survey. Mine is unsubbed as of last night

whats worse is Mass Effect 3 had a good ending. They should have finished with Anderson and Shepard being rescued as the weapon fires and then finish off the story with all of ur friends. The crap with the little kid should be deleted and burned

[DGuyton]

I'm sure it's been stated before but my main problem was feeling like all the work I did uniting the galaxy and going through making sure I had EVERYTHING I could to fight the Reapers was for nothing because it all came down to a Deus Ex Machina out of nowhere instead of something that was created through blood, sweat and tears.

That to me is the biggest betrayal of this game, you fight through three games building things up and in the end it's some AI that's created this because AIs will rise up and kill organics and so the AI has been KILLING ORGANICS WITH AIs! Even though SHEPARD PROVED IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE THE CASE! EDI, The Geth if you play your cards right, all these things that disprove the stupid out of nowhere Mastermind's hypothesis and it all counts for NOTHING because you're shoved towards three static endings. It's sad and pathetic and Bioware should be ashamed.

Baldur's Gate had two endings - to accept your destiny and transcend to godhood, or to give up your divine spark and remain mortal. As much as I loved my party and as much as I was attached to my LI, I still picked godhood because it made sense for my story to end that way.

The ending was absolutely satisfying, and I still consider Baldur's Gate to be the best epic tale told in RPG. It would have been Mass Effect, if not for the ending.

Indeed, Bioware has it in them to pull off a good ending. I'm not sure why the dropped the ball so hard here.

That is what shocks me the most. They did an excellent job with Mass Effect. And Mass Effect 2 is pretty damned good. What friggin' happened is what I'm scratching my head over.

Don't get many of the people here wrong, Mass Effect 3 was a great game and many think so.

But after all the effort and sacrifices Shepard put into saving the Galaxy... doesn't s/he deserve a well earned happy ending with those s/he cares about the most?

You sir have just made up a better ending in the span of what, 20 seconds?

They are probably very carefully planning/drafting what they are going to say.
I just have this bad feeling that "Evil" christ is going to come in, say deal with it and close this thread.
Also, it makes me sick to see all the big gaming websites saying this game is a masterpiece. Well, it was until the end.

Those big gaming websites prolly havn't seen the crap ending yet lol

[thormir]

This fan made editing would have been better than the real ending

[ziyon conqueror]

Hear hear fellow players who wish to see a true happy ending. I mean hey, Bioware should make a DLC that alters the outcome of the ending. After all, it's the end of the trilogy and there can be room for making new endings besides sacrificing yourself. What I've been waiting for for two years and two months since ME2 is for Shepard to defeat the Reapers in a big battle royale or find some master control signal that shuts them down permanently. Instead, I saw a big sacrifice with no thought of happy ending, marriage, medals slapped on uniforms, apologies from the Council, etc. It's just not fair.

[comrade gando]

basically everything leading up to shepard and anderson bleeding out was perfect. It should have went in a different direction before "shepard, what's going on? nothing's happening" *record skip* no no no... rewrite it before that point please. anderson not surviving the bullet wound is fine, very dramatic. but the current ending is just stupid. outright stupid.

Actually, they were probably payed huge amounts of money by EA for good reviews so they just ignore it.

Perfect, tag on some extra scenes and victory bits with ur crew like the end of ME1 and it's all sorted

Jesus, ME3 is getting so much praise by critics. I am guessing they have not beaten the game yet.

Well known Criticts are given merchendising goods in order to write positive reviews, this is basic marketing 101. Many probably got a free copy of the game.

[/quote]this actually does happen. They pay people for good reviews. The gaming industry has become dirty business.

Well it proves it's definately a fact they can coexist so why not give it a chance?

[Arios1570]

I posted this and I actually kind of like it, it's the ending I wanted for my first playthrough. Someone posted a reply before it got closed and I like his suggestion, so read the reply first then go up and substitute his answer for the catalyst in for mine, for the most part.

Also yeah, willing to expand on the idea to fit other results.

Also, don't forget that the game was good up until the end. They have to write a whole review based on the game itself and gameplay/story/mechanics/graphics probably get their own scores. However I would like to see more 'endings suck' at the end of those reviews.

That's precisely what exceptions mean. It means the rule is incomplete. Thus not a rule itself, but an approximation of one.

It becomes, at best, a shorthand.

so you mean there wasn't a happy ending. You mean that there wasn't enough variety in the endings in terms of large outcome

Yes, in my review (which I don't blame you for not seeing it's buried in the review thread) I agree that the game is easily the best in the series right up till the last five minutes with Reaper Creator. 

I do believe that a happy ending should be an option, but more importantly an in-character option should be available. The Shepard of the series does not believe that the Reapers have the right to determine our fate, then this weird Shepard suddenly gives in to three options laid to him by the Reapers. What happened to, "Screw your choices, we're going to kick you in the balls or die trying." That is, after all, what Shepard tells two Reapers in the previous games.

My friend is hanging out with some Bioware producers at the GDC tonight and she said she would slap them
