What annoys me the most is the sheer nonsensical of it all. In "The Arrival" The mass relay is destroyed and subsequently destroys the system that it resides in. If the same it to be applied here then essentially all sentient life has been totally obliterated. Secondly, it's as if all the decisions I made prior to that point count for nothing. Which ruins the entire series for me as I know that if I replay then I've got nothing to look forward to beyond that of a truly dire ending. Surely all that's necessary to stop them is to send a "kill message" that would just deactivate them. How does a message as such result (in my case) in the destruction of all synthetic life, the mass relays and the citadel.

I want to play the game beyond the war. I want to see how the quarians rebuild and how my LI (Tali) gets on, what happens to all my crew. Instead I get stuck with some random "Oh they crash landed on some planet lol".
The fact that apparently all games these days feel it necessary to have "bittersweet" endings in order to try to become something to be remembered insults me. If you want a game to be remembered you make a great game, you don't make a completly ridiculous ending that people will discredit you here on out for.


That! right there. THATS what i want too. I would LIKE to be a part of that, perhaps not as Shep ( he's retired and relaxing somewhere with his LI ), but maybe as a new character, with a new ship, I WANT that exploration, not some mystical magical einsteinian transverse back in time to before the end which is  as we know, going to be horrible.

OK, got it. The only thing that BW have to understand: ME is not a psychological/philosophical space tragedy. It's a Si-Fi Action. Maybe it's dark and brutal, but hey, remember Starship Troopers. It's dark and brutal too, but still it has a conclusion for war and victory. Same here, I need a logical conclusion for my struggles through trilogy (i always playing on insane difficult, so it's literally…) with ending full of joy of victory, not a brainf***!


Omg yea, I would love if N.P.Harris would show as ex-cerberus black-ops psychonic scientis, look at the god kid and says "It's afraid" ... :wizard:

The united fleet charges, and then the Normandy gets shot by many Reaper beams (that would be logical for them taking all the trouble Shepard has cause them in account). That would be a better ending.

I've been on the forums, following threads, reading posts, and voting on polls since I "completed" the game Thursday and I finally decided to sync stuff up so I could post myself. I don't think there is anything else I could say that hasn't already been expressed. The endings fall flat on their faces and ultimately don't live up to what Mass Effect has been building up to be over the past several years. The idea that Shepard would simply give in and go out with whimper is a disgrace to what he/she stood for, paragon or renegade it doesn't matter. I'm not even going to bother to discuss everything that is wrong with the endings. I have attempted to mull over the endings over the past several days and, like many of you, have found it only gets worse not better.

What gets to me even more is both my brothers and my girlfriend are playing through the game right now, and they are absolutely loving it. My girlfriend has especially been drawn into the otherwise epic story that is ME3, she has even cried multiple times while playing (deaths of Mordin and Thane). I swore to them, especially my gf, that I would say nothing of the game, my gf would murder me in my sleep or something. However, it kills me to know the ending will crush her. Sadly they won't fix the endings before she finishes the game, only hope they do fix them.

I have to agree with Tartilus and the idea of having a succinct list of concerns from the general community. BW/EA is either going to completely ignore the community (or somehow justify this travesty), or they will look to the community for answers, and having an organized effort to adequately convey player concerns will be important.

In either case, Pacific Fighter Squadron reporting for duty.

Never before have I felt such a letdown in any game, book or movie serious. How and when did bioware get so out of touch with their players?

Oh god, you're right... Never before has a shopping mall been the cause of so much pain and suffering.

I actually contacted Spacecast about this just now. I don't know if it will get anywhere, but this many (and still growing) number of discontents MUST make a good story, somehow.

Ok I admit you got me to Cry for Mordin, Kirrahe (restarted to get Thane), and Legion (not so much since Legion became part all Geth).

These ending made me laughing with confusion. Why was Joker doing a Mass Effect jump? How did my crew get on board when they were on the ground for the final assault.
Really only difference in ending shooting, jumping, or grabbing, the color wave, crash characters with Joker at the end. So many variations you are moronic - a basic programmer could have done better.

Okay apparently what we are doing here is having some kind of effect, I just checked the facebook page and found a gamefront article: www.gamefront.com/player-starts-poll-asking-bioware-for-new-mass-effect-3-ending/ they are reporting about the poll for a new ending so we are at least being noticed now. Hopefully this puts things in perspective for Bioware.


Actually I was wondering if anyone made a FB group dedicated to the "change the endings movement"


This isn't going to turn into another Kony event thing is it?. Just make a massive poll on the forums where Bioware can see it and end of.


Screw just being seen, we're going to be heard. We've all just spent how many hours each inside commander shepards brain. What? They should expect something else?? Only in bad endings.. Sorry..
I dont know what kony is, and i dont care. What i care about is whats right here on this forum and on facebook and twitter and all around the globe. We fight.. We fight for OUR story. Not Biowares..

I agree with the majority here. The game itself is simply amazing, possibly the best of the series. And then the ending leaves a bad taste so intense, that it destroys the replay value not only for the game itself, but its prequels as well.
Hell, I even feel depressed when thinking about the prequels now. All the decisions: For nothing. All the relationships build: For nothing. The mass effect universe and it's lore that we've grown to love: Gone. In the end Bioware just underestimated just how much we fans fell in love with our Shepards and the mass effect universe.

With all the disapointment, I really feel like I still have to give credits to the voice actors, the composers and facial animators. Their work was really amazing. The scene with Shepard and Anderson was incredibly touching. It's a bit ironic that their great work even amplifies the issue with the endings. But they are not to blame. Just saying.

I had completely forgotten the Dark Energy foreshadowing from ME2 that never came up in ME3. Why the change...?

I know I keep going on about how depressed I am. But I need to make this clear. ME3 was an amazing game. It was just the ENDING I did not like.

Because of writer reshuffling. Play through ME3 again and you'll notice how inconsistent the entire game is with the universe itself.
