Uh oh...


Mike Gamble is Mike Gamble.
When he says "multiple ending", that means "one ending mith diffrent colors".
Yes, we know that claim.

Hopefully gamble is being facetious. *crosses fingers* technically there are three ending but only two different results. He can't mean that for reals can he? *crosses all appendages*

He's a fool if he chooses to ignore this and I for one will not go down quietly. Don't stop because of this, don't lose you're focus. You think they can ignore us if our numbers contiune to swell at this rate? The game hasn't even hit parts of the world, just hold the line guys, hold fast.

I know that poll is not "everyone", but 18,000 votes 87% of that are unhappy customers a good sample.

BW/EA have got the mojority of players dissapointed, angry and upset at thier choice of poorly thought out, limmited choice and dismal endings no matter what effort you put  in to be "ready" at end game




Happy customers don't go looking for poles about how "bad" the ending was.
It's like BF3 vs. MW3 where the internet is flooded with MW3 hate, but MW3 still outsells BF3.
On topic: not saying I know which side holds the majority.

Yes, the endings offer incredible variety. The cutscenes are completely different! It's not like it's the same scene, different palette, with identical crash landings at the end. That would just be silly.

Ah, "multiple endings", the wide variety of finales that alledgedly reflect your choices and actions, we have dissmissed that claim

You really have to be kidding me on this one, I sincerely hope we are going to get a more proper response to all of this soon. Looks like this was tweeted a while back, before this movement hit the level it has now so maybe they are going to change their minds on what to say about it.

They almost have to fix the ending. While all the marketing and resources are used to initially sell the game to the mainstream, it's us fans that they will rely on for purchasing any future DLC. They know we won't purchase DLC if the ending stays as is. Take heart. I'm sure this is all part of the plan to make players feel indoctrinated. And if it's not, then they won't make money off the DLC because we won't buy it without a fixed ending.

It doesn't ask "how bad", it asks if you liked it or not.
There is also another older very popular poll that asks people whether or not they were disappointed with Mass Effect 2, and 81% voted not disappointed. Remember, there was a decent bit of controversy over ME2. That's why this isn't the same as BF3 vs MW3. This forum is generally populated with people who loved Mass Effect, and if you read the threads here the VAST majority of people absolutely loved ME3 up until the end. The poll does have meaning. I think it's clear that we hold the majority.

For the record, I'd think that even without any statistics to back it up, because I find it really difficult to imagine how people could find any solace in the endings. Unless you only had one Shepard, and you decided to play a self-sacrificing hero who goes out in a mediocre pseudo-victory, then I can't see how anyone could actually think the ending was satisfactory.

Already cancelled, citing this fiasco as a reason, no intention of supporting Bioware if this is how they expect to be able to treat us.

Regardless of who has the majority on their side, the concerns are valid. I do agree that alot of people dont come to the forums, especially if they are satisfied. However a gaming forum does represent a part of the fanbase, and many of us know people that arent on this forum that share our opinion, so it really works both ways. You dont necessarily go looking for "poles" if you dislike a game, you just dont buy the next one.

The response to these bad endings were pretty much universal. I mean with 90+% dissatisfaction ratings, I can't believe BW wouldn't have noticed what a crapshot ending they came up with when they were designing the game. It is a stark, stark, contrast comparing the rest of the game and the final 10 minutes. ME3 gameplay echoes what an awesome developer they are... and then comes the ending, which just takes a complete and absolute 180.

This leads me to believe 2 things:
1) Near the end of the development, something went VERY, VERY wrong with scheduling/dates/publisher pressure. Even when the storyboards (usually early in development) were planned I'm pretty sure this 'ending' would have stood out like a sore thumb. Someone (probably EA) must have stood in and demanded the game be released by a certain date.

2) BW are just trolling. The Hallucination Theory hits the spot for me. Anything after Shephard gets hit by the beam seems out of the place and screams false. This includes the movement and the magical appearance of both Anderson and the Illusive Man. This includes the weird, suspicious reference to the Collector Base, and the fact that Anderson, of all the trained soldiers, actually made it up to the Citadel, with the other survivor being Shephard, which seems highly unlikely. And of course, to a less extent, the magical pistol which never runs out of ammo.

In conclusion, the Bioware I know, through both ME1 and ME2, have proven that they are the people who do Sci-Fi epics RIGHT. ME3 proves that all the way until the final 10 minutes. So I'm pretty sure 'bad' writing wasn't the cause. Something external MUST have conflicted with BW's desire to finish the game the way THEY wanted.

Not only the endings of ME3 are extremely disappointing, but despite Bioware's promises it is impossible to achieve the "perfect" (for what it is worth) ending without multiplayer/iOS apllications, at least on the normal playthrough (not New Game+). Without Multi, You can gather as much as 7442 War Assets and with 50% readiness it isn't enough :(


This could actually be an indication that we stil have to get the real ending.


Whatev ready level u have is multi by ur war assets. So if u have 7K and 50 ready level then u have approx 3500 actual war assets. U don't get a special cutscene until u have acquired a net total of 5K and only if you choose destroy. This cu
tscene has lead to the developmentnt of the hallucination theory.


I think they never actually stated  every content is available without MP only that you can reach the best end without it and you get the anderson talk with those 3500 so you don't really loose out on anything. And as i started to believe the hallucination theory it's quite possbile and that the real end is still to come, i look at some things different.
